Margaret. 20 years old. 5'6/5'7. 170ish lbs.

Doing this 100% the healthy way. I lift weights, I run, I climb, I jump, I release my endorphins on a daily basis. I take in my calories the clean way. I don't hinder myself and I allow myself that cupcake every once in a while. I eat when I'm hungry and that's pretty often. It's a lifestyle change, not a diet. I believe in non-scale related victories. I'm a complete gym rat. I'm 5k training. I'm marathon training. I'm triathlon training, I'm ultramarathon training.

April Goals:

What I did for this month was make little poster thingys to post on my wall so I have a visual representation of what I need to do for that day. Yes, I’m doing a lot. I really really am. The point of this month is I want to show myself how far my body can take me. I’ve had such a rough month, I’ve been in a very low place for about 2 months and the only time that I haven’t felt that was when I was going hard on my workouts. The goal is to work my body to the brink, healthily, if only to show myself that I am a strong woman and I can reach my goals. I want to be an athlete and I’m going to make the moves to get there.

RUNNING GOALS:

  • 4 running workouts a week
  • three 3-mile runs a week
  • one 12-mile run a week
  • sub 9-minute mile (land)
  • sub 11-minute mile (treadmill)
  • 76 miles the whole month. (that’s 3 miles 3 times a week and 12 miles once a week)

WORKOUT GOALS:

  • Follow the Insanity workout plan all month. 6 days of workout, 1 day of rest.
  • P90X workout 2x a week
  • Follow the Six Week Six Pack Abs workout

GYM GOALS:

  • No cardio in the gym, at all, in any capacity.
  • Weight training only in the gym.
  • Weight training 2x a week.

EATING GOALS:

  • Eat Clean, Get Lean
  • Follow the Insanity Nutrition Guide

This body belongs to Emily Norine, she is currently competing on the Real World/Road Rules Challenge: Battle of the Exes where she is probably going to be kicked off because she has a freakishly unstable partner in the form of Ty. And while she is probably one of the best potential contestants on the show, arguably the best body tied with Rachel and MAYBE Diem, I have no hope seeing as Ty is such a waste of space.

However, I post her beautiful face and her lovely body because I have found her blog. While there are only 3 posts at the moment, I plan on following like it’s my job and I thought maybe some of you might want to also. She is a NASM Certified Personal Trainer and is following a Paleo diet. Furthermore, the top post on her blog, currently, shows how she eats bacon and maintains her figure. It’s a pretty good read.
