A handwritten workout plan titled 'AMRAP' in a notebook, detailing warm-up exercises, leg exercises (RDL, goblet squat, alt lunges, pulse squat), arm exercises (bent over row, T raise, front raise, arnold press), and full body exercises (devil press, plank, renegade rows, squat to press), with 40 seconds on and 20 seconds off timings.

A handwritten workout plan on white paper, outlining warm-up exercises, leg exercises (goblet squat, single leg RDL, alt jump lunges), arm exercises (bicep curl, alt snatches, alt tri kickbacks, devil press), and abs exercises (flutters, deadbug, boat hold, crunches), with 40/20 timings and 3 sets.

✨Workouts that transformed my body✨

So these pictures were taken a little over a year apart and I am just so proud of how far I have came in the last year! The first photos were taken when I weighed a little over 170lbs and this morning I weighed 159lbs. I love myself in both, but don’t get me wrong I love being a little more lean!
