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! 💪

“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 ❤️‍🔥

10K Steps Accountability ✔️ Back to Routine
Getting back into my routine and easing in the smart way 👀 Right now I’m focusing more on hitting my 10K daily steps and pulling back a bit on intensity. I’ve cut down to ONE HIIT class on Saturdays and really listening to what my body is telling me. And honestly… my body said: slow down. So I’m doing exactly that. Shifting my energy to prioritize strength days where it matters most, instead of going all out every single workout. I’m also being more intentional with my steps:✔️ 20-minute walk before I start working — because once work starts, I can easily get caught up and skip it✔️ After dinner walk = non-negotiable — whether my partner joins me or not It’s a bonus if he walks with me… but if not, I’m still getting it done 💁‍♀️ Sometimes progress isn’t about doing more… it’s about doing what your body actually needs 💯 Question for you all: When your body tells you to slow down… what’s YOUR strategy?Do you pull back, switch focus, or push through? 👇
