A Healthy Curvy

Im all for healthy curvy gals. They are gorgeous, the dream of most men. After all, men love boobs and butts and little bellies. What I don't agree with is women using that word curvy to describe an obese and unhealthy female. These are two very different things. And what I'm more than not ok with is these same women being absolutely CRUEL to extremely healthy and fit women. There is also a difference between being "skinny" and being "lean and fit". I've heard so many horrible things come out of these jealous women's mouths. "Eat a piece of cake", "Skinny Bitch", "She's only that size because she doesn't eat" etc. As a Certified Personal Trainer and Amatuer Figure Competitor I know for a fact that these beautiful, toned, and lean female physiques in fact DO eat, and eat a lot. It's true, sometimes eating 6-8 times a day. We just eat differently than others. We eat lots of vegetables, lean proteins, complex carbohydrates, fruit and even the occasional piece of dark chocolate. Wait, who am I kidding. I eat dark chocolate every day! So if you are one of those haters, why don't you go educate yourself on living a healthy and fit lifestyle, stop being jealous, and join our club. And start your transformation with this quadriceps focused leg day. Leg press, 2 warm up sets 15 reps. 3 sets 10 reps, feet closer than shoulder width and lower on platform. This will target more of your "sweep". Leg extension, 2 sets toes pointing up, 12 reps. 2 sets toes pointing in, 12 reps each set. 2 sets toes pointing out, 12 reps each set. Last set move the weight up so you can only complete 5 slow reps, then drop the weight and complete 5 more slow reps, then drop the weight and finish with five more slow reps. You should be wobbly at this point. Head over to the squat rack and do 3 sets 15 reps Barbell Front Squat. This movement is also very slow and controlled, feet are closer than shoulder width and toes are pointing forward. Use the muscle mind connection and think of your quadriceps ripping out of your shorts (or pants). Keep constant tension on the quads by not standing up completely until your set is over. Only one minute rest in between these sets. Enjoy. ;)
