For those of you who have been following my Instagram since era 2009/10, including my deleted posts, you know I have been cross-training for quite some time. I ran, cycled, lifted weights, yoga, etc. Then life happened. Unfortunately, stress makes me lose weight, no gains. What is even crazier is my metabolism is super fast. I am not asking my metabolism to slow completely down, but if it can slow down 15% or even 10%, I will be happy. I miss cross-training and for people who say, oh you should not be biking or running, makes me wonder if they are a truly certified trainer. No offense, but a lot of people sit around and pop supplements of CoQ10. Cardio is good for your cardiovascular health and you should never take that out of your cross-training. That is why you also must lift and increase your calorie intake (the caloric surplus).

I finally had gotten my bikes serviced. I have a total of three bikes: 1 mountain bike, which can also be used for on road biking. I used this bike at one time for both. Very heavy. Now my other 2 bikes are Trek. I am just excited to be back and the gym, riding bikes, and focusing on getting back to the lb club of at least 130/5+!
