#fitig

Flip through the photos to see the actual progression of me witnessing my quads finally showing up to this #gaintrain. . . Today was not a great day. Depression and fatigue took over me. I slept probably about 14 hours and couldn't get myself to eat anything, or even drink water. I had no obligations so I just stayed in bed. Depression really fucking sucks. I was finally able to force myself to eat around 5pm. I couldn't do much else afterwards. . . At 8:30pm I decided I had to go to the gym. Not for my body, but for my mind. The gym is the only place where my mind is clear. I have to be so focused on every movement that my brain can't focus on anything else. Plus, lifting makes me feel like a powerful goddess, and that's always a plus. I knew working out would lead me to feel better, and it did. So I chugged some #yolo and headed for the gym. And to make things even better, I finally am able to see my quad through my pants! What a cool victory! . . All in all, I had a couple of victories today. Even if they're small, they are worth celebrating. So glad I have found this outlet. #weightlifting #gains #girlswholift #girlsthatlift #quadseparation #muscles #victory #gym #fitig #fitfam #wearecrush #crush60

Second leg day this week and man they are feeling huge, haha. I love it! I feel so pumped and strong as hell! This girl here is gonna be shredded chicken in no time. Also, its the first time I've worn a crop top to the gym! Was nervous to walk out of the locker room but channeling my inner @fitnika101 and @aubernutter made me own it and walk around with confidence!! #legday #girlsthatlift #girlswholift #fitness #fitbit #fitig #croptop

I'm laying in bed at nearly midnight making this post... I am beyond tired. I did this killer workout this morning in about 30 minutes before spending the entire day at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. My nutrition was off track today but IDGAF!!! I had the best day. 🎵 Avatar- Smells Like A Freakshow •Stairs 5 min •Squat jumps •Lunges •Calve raises •"Fire Hydrants" x20 each •Fire Hydrant Kicks x20 each •Donkey Kicks x30 each + stretching! #workout #gym #fitness #fitig #health #fatloss #musclegain #weightlifting #girlsthatlift #girlswholift #weightloss #gaintrain #gains #bodyweightworkouts #avatar #heavymetal #squats #lunges #legday #quickworkouts #crush #crushfit #crush60 #crushfam #crushgo!

Got an Instagram that’s based on health/fitness and or a little personal life too? Let me know and let’s follow each other 🧘🏻‍♀️🥗

We are doing this! #GYMSHARK66 Excuse the mean look on my face I just finished taking a killer kick boxing class [thanks to @mamabonamassa] and was still totally in the zone! Swipe for less angry photo! >>> - I was hesitant at first to join this challenge but then I remembered that I plan to finally take a hold of my life and make things happen. Not just with losing weight and building muscle but having a healthy life style.  By eating better, taking care of my body inside and out, and working on my mental health because well you can have a rocking body and be strong but if you have poor mental health and are miserable you weren't successful! - In addition, when I was teaching Martial Arts I had the opportunity to INSPIRE people daily and it was so fulfilling and I miss that part of my life. Having had the opportunity to make people feel better about themselves, motivate them to work HARD and watch them on their journeys and see them succeed was the most rewarding part of my job. So I am going on this journey, being vulnerable, showing my struggles and my wins in hopes that I motivate and inspire even just ONE person to finally step out of their comfort zone and reach their goals! If you are also going on this @gymshark @gymsharkwomen journey tag me @aliciaccuccia so that I can follow you and we can motivate one another! - Also shout out to @whitneyysimmons For the HOT🔥Flames tank that I was rockin in my class 💪
