LEAN LEGS and yummy eggs

THE LEAN LEG WORKOUT
...that gave me DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness) for 3 days, which is always a sign of a good, hard workout

Leg Press 3 x 8 at 80kg, 3 x 5 at 100kg

Lunges with db 5 x 20 (5kg each hand)

Calf Raises 3 x 15 (15kg)

Squats 5 x 5 (50kg)

Hamstring Curl on exercise ball 3 x 8

Side Raise 3 x10 with resistance band

- Finished with total body stretching and foam rolling -


For the post workout protein I went to a cafe called Cafe XXII (22) Which is a super trendy, french based cafe in the bustling heart of Sydney city, Pyrmont. Walking into the cafe you are welcomed by aromas of chai latte and bacon, hmmm bacon and the sounds of grinding coffee beans or french outbursts <-- which add to the indy atmosphere.

I had the a cappucino and the "Florentine" which was pretty much eggs benedict with smoked salmon...with the hollandaise sauce on the size (I hate butter and that sauce has unneccessary calories with little nutritional value) Super yummy and filling, defs recommend it!

Address - 22 Union Street, Pyrmont NSW 2009

ABOUT ME

Hey sparklers! Thanks for visiting my blog which is all things fitness, health and food! Okay so I thought It would be appropriate to do a little about me for my first post, so here are 10 things. 1. My name is Emma 2. I'm a twin 3. I've grown up playing every sport you can think of, but have a soft spot in my heart for hockey. 4. I live in my gym gear, all day everyday. 5. My nickname is Smiley because I just love to crack a cheesy smile. 6. My favourite foods are mango, chocolate and sushi yuuummmmm 7. I can speak Italian (kinda, only if you speak slow to me haha) 8. I am studying Exercise Physiology at University 9. I eat everything upside down so that the flavour is on my tongue's tastebuds including toast and pizza... Don't hate it until you try it! 10. One of my favourite quotes is "Don't fear failure, Fear mediocrity" - it's something I try to live by everyday, as it helps me strive to be better. Find your spark to success. I can't wait to post more stuff and get to know you guys! I also have an instagram called FIT_SMILEY <-- Follow me for more pics!
