I used to think I only needed 20-40 second rests in between exercises too. I thought that I if i wasn;t sweating like krraaaazzzyy then I wasn't pushing myself hard enough

❌ WRROONNGGG. So so wrong...

The HIIT world is teaching us to stress our bodies out AS IF WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH STRESS IN LIFE. We don't need to make it worse in the gym

If you don't need a FULL 2 minute rest, then you weren't pushing yourself the right way.

When you focus on KONTROLLING your body rather than speeding through it, you're going to NEED that time AAAAAAAANNDD you'll get better results

The best part is that you won't be in the gym for HOURS. Because who really has time for that?

You need to grow into your face!

I used to berate myself daily when I was 17! I was convinced my nose was too big, my lips were too small, and that I had a baby face. Looking back, I just look young in my opinion. Some of you may not even see a big difference in how I look now compared to me at 17! I’m 23 now and have come to l
