#do-it-for-cosplay

Not one, not two, not three, but FOUR pull-ups! Not exciting for some people, but for me it’s a personal best.

In the last month or so, I switched up my workout routine to be more full-body. My new average trip to the gym includes 15 minutes on the rowing machine, 30 minutes of cardio, and pull-up training. Plus I still try to do MadBarz at least a few times a week to keep up with my friends. Though I’m worried that my arm definition isn’t getting better, I’m very satisfied with the way my legs look in booty shorts ;)

I just follow a few fitness and art blogs on here to be completely honest (I follow 50 blogs total, I’m kinda picky). 

Some fitness blogs that I follow are @fit-like-korra, for the Korra posts and fitness updates to her training. @jaxblade for that nerdy fitness. @m-muscle-chan who posts some fitness stuff every now and again (her insta is where I see her stuff most of the time). I also follow @train-go even though I don’t do martial arts, their dedication to their art is just an inspiring even if it’s not the same as what I practice! Plus, I love their art. @do-it-for-cosplay is kinda like fit-like-korra’s blog and I like their updates as well.

I guess I’m kinda weird because I find motivation to keep going by wanting to be better than my past self. I also like looking at buff cartoon women on tumblr and wanting to be seen like that. I don’t usually find motivation in other people’s stuff because I tend to compare myself and beat myself up for not seeing certain results that I see in other people’s posts (and I made a whole post on not comparing but it’s a hard monster to conquer).
