Make Me Strong Like Bull

So after signing up for my new online personal trainer yesterday, I got my full plan for April in my email box today. Let me say how happy I am with my plan!

In the initial questionnaire, I gave a lot of information about what I have done and my body type. Also she asked what I want to look like. I don't know what it's called...but I want to look like my body idol, Laila Ali:


That in my opinion, is a killer body. And that body requires some major work to achieve.

So when I looked at the program that was created for me, I was really happy to see that the stuff I like and the stuff she thinks will work for me are one in the same, woot! What is that you ask....lifting HEAVY weights. Sorry, but I can't do the bodypump situation...lifting 10 lbs 100 times. I like to lift 100 lbs 10 times. That makes me feel strong and I get muscle definition pretty fast that way. And since I would like to look like miss diva herself...well I need to lift heavy. And yes ladies, you can lift heavy. As long as you aren't on steroids, you will not end up looking like this:

Anyway, the mix of cardio and weights is fun and interesting and I'm really excited for workout #1, which will be tonight!
