Nickname: Muna
Age: 30
Height: 5'11"
Weight: around 140 lbs
Goal: Losing the fat I've gained in the past year and developing a tight body, while keeping my figure as feminine/delicate-looking as it is now. I really don't want any apparent muscles, especially on my arms. Jessica Alba is a good example of what I want to look like.
Hi everyone!
I've just joined a gym and I have no clue as to what I'm supposed to do. I've gained 20 lbs in the past two years, and I'd like to something about it. While I know I'm a very healthy person, I also know I'm not in my best shape and I'd like to change that. I've hired a very experienced personal trainer to help me develp a routine and a meal plan, but I'm still not sure I'm on the right track. One of the problems I've encountered is the fact that the four personal trainers I spoke to admire stronger-looking ladies (like Madonna, for instance) and that is how they envision me. They're also married to bodybuilders, which makes it harder for me to explain to them that I do not find that look attractive without offending anyone. While I understand and respect their opinions, I just don't wanna wind up looking like that. I'm very tall and naturally thin, and the look I'm after is very close to what I have now, just tighter. Some of the bodies I admire are Jessica Alba's, Isabeli Fontana's and Heidi Klum's.
I was told to work out six days a week. I do 45 minutes of cardio and the ab-bench on Mon/ Wed/ Friday. On Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays I lift weights and finish off with 30 mins. of cardio.
My meal plan consists of eating every 3 hours, always making sure I get 30g of protein each time. I eliminated refined sugar and fruits. As for my carb intake, I rely on oats, potatoes, vegetables and legumes.
*I'd also like to add that it is very hard for me to eat all the food on my meal plan. I've been force-feeding myself for the past week, and I feel nautious most the time. I hate eggs and I'm not a big fan of meat either ... I also love milk and cheese, but my trainer told me to avoid dairy all together it because it'll give me a soft-pumped look*
Thanks in advance,
Muna
