Halfway Through My 90-Day Glow-Up: Portuguese Camping Adventures & Beach Vibes! 🏕️🌊
Happy Thursday everyone! 🎉 Can you believe I’m already halfway through my 90-day plan? Time is flying so fast! The last two weeks (Weeks 9 & 10) were all about our epic road trip through Portugal, camping under the stars, soaking up that authentic Portuguese culture, and chasing beautiful beaches. Pure magic! My gym membership wrapped up at the start of the month. With the road trip coming up, it didn’t make sense to renew for just a few weeks we’d barely use. So instead, we focused on hitting the right amount of protein and racking up tons of steps with lots of walking. Simple but effective! Camping in Portugal was an absolute blast! We met so many lovely people at the campsite, mostly retirees and long-term residents, who happily shared their camping stories and tips with us. I loved the helpful community vibe; everyone looks out for each other. On day three, the weather flipped from sunny perfection to heavy wind gusts that lasted almost two and a half days. Not fun at all! We debated packing up and heading back to Spain, but we stuck it out, and thank goodness we did! The skies cleared into five glorious, full-sunshine days. We drove around exploring charming towns and stunning beaches. Absolute paradise! Food highlights? I finally tried Bacalhau à Brás (one of Cristiano Ronaldo’s favorites!) and Pastéis de Nata in both original and almond flavors. Yum! While I was feeling under the weather, I kept it simple with high carbs and lighter protein. Breakfast stayed consistent, my usual oatmeal with yogurt and fruit. Lunch was often a sandwich, noodles, soup, or a quick snack like Ritz biscuits (I was so famished I devoured them all!). Overall, I ate at maintenance calories or slightly above for the week. Back in Spain, we celebrated with some shared tapas. Next-day weigh-in? I actually lost weight and body fat despite eating more! Body fat down 0.9%, total weight -1kg, and subcutaneous fat -0.7%. Feeling so motivated, I’m on the right track, progressing slowly but surely toward my goal! 💪

This might be me 😆😆
Now I know why some of my friends avoid training with me. “One more rep!”

“Fat people are a drain on resources!” 😲
You guys may have seen this debate from last year. It shook the fitness space the say the least. Here’s a short clip of Myron talking about his stance on “fat people”. https://www.reddit.com/r/Asmongold/comments/1dy4chj/fresh_and_fit_vs_fat_men_debate/ Controversial… and extremely insensitive. Is he wrong though? OF COURSE HE’S WRONG. But not from a technical standpoint. People get fat because they eat too much. My problem is that he doesn’t understand nor consider WHY people eat too much. And there are several reasons that you may fall into yourself if you’ve been overweight and/or on a fat loss journey yourself. I made a Loom on it and I think you should watch it. Comment “WHY” and I’ll send it over ❤️‍🔥

🚗 Road Trip Snack Game = LOCKED IN 🔒💪
I’ve got a work conference the first week of May and I’ll be driving—so you already know… I came PREPARED 😏 Packed my go-to protein snacks: - Catalina Crunch (Creamy Ranch = my FAVORITE 😍) - Edamame (sea salt + sriracha for that spicy kick 🔥) - Mango + raspberry fruit jerky - Mango fruit jerky Because when I’m on the road, I’m not relying on gas station snacks or “whatever is convenient.” This is how I stay on track without feeling restricted. 👉 Protein + fiber = keeps me full, focused, and less tempted to grab random foods. Honestly… driving gives me MORE control over my choices—and I’m using that to my advantage 💯 Question for you:What are your go-to snacks when you’re on a road trip or traveling? 👇 Let’s build a solid list for the community! 🚀

D-1, whole boat, standby.
It is today... I'm getting on a plane! Race weekend has finally arrived. Missed training on Monday because work demands, and you do what you need to do. We had our final training on Tuesday - just few rounds of drills, and it was a really good session. Is the team ready? As ready as we'll ever be. I went to the gym on Wednesday after work; the same full body workout but light weights. There were a lot of people, either doing super heavy or super sets. It's not intimidating, it's just scary when the space is small, and I'm standing that close and it just (BANG) when they drop weight on the machine. But people are friendly - and I was just vibing through. I'll share updates & videos from the race 🙏
