The tellings of a 20 something girl trying to make it in NYC. And lots of nerdery. I'm sophie. These are my isms.
Beastin’ in the locker rooms. I’m not even trying to be sorry. #FLEX #DEM #ADORABLE #LIL #BABY #BICEPS.
This was too good not to repost. #fitspo
Today is #legs and #ass day. I squat like my life depends on it. After my weights, its off to my kickboxing session. #teamnodaysoff. #thunder #thighs #fordays. #fitfam #glutes #quads #butt #progress #cleaneating #eatclean #traindirty
Today was #arms day. 2.5 weeks ago I became a member of team #nodaysoff. As a result I’ve finally started growing real biceps, so I’m pleased. Sore every day, but pleased. #flex #them #biceps. #beastmode

This is my new favorite park. It’s bloody fantastic. There’s a one mile trail and throughout are 20 checkpoints with bars or ropes or handles to do various strengthtraining activities as specified on signs before moving on. (Its surrounded by alligators too, so all the more motivation to run from checkpoint to checkpoint without slowing down your pace.) #fitness #fitspo #trail #workout #onemile #strength #training
so here’s the story: same bikini, side-by-side, 5 weeks and 13 weeks. The difference is between those two shots I actually started working out LESS, and cheating MORE. (Though the majority of my meals are always paleo, I just have a weakness for ice cream and alcoholic beverages.) Maybe that’s why the progress plateaued. But I wanted to conduct an experiment to see how much benefit/change was due to diet alone. So there it is. A small before and after slice.

Me, today, 13 weeks of #paleo. Except full of cheating, particularly in last 2/3 weeks when I did most of it. Sporadic days of #keto thrown in.
You don’t even understand how dead I am. I mean you have no idea.
After doing 40 minutes of insanity I decided to do half an hour of zumba when this REALLY fine man comes in, and he starts watching me do my slutty zumba for a while which at first was awkward but then I didn’t mind. But so after a while he tells me “don’t rush or anything, but I’m just going to start setting up for my class.”
And I’m like oic. What is this class you run… and he tells me it’s a bootcamp class (he’s like ex military or something probably marines) and I ask him if I can stay for his class and maybe signup (cause he’s so fine) and he kinda raises an eyebrow but then agrees and has me sign a waiver.
But then during the class I’m trying so hard to impress him and outdo all the other men there… which given the fact I just did over an hour of insanity and zumba was suicide… but I didn’t stop. I even injured an ankle almost sprained and kept running through the tires on it to beat all the boys and get this boy’s heart… at this point I’m so dead I don’t think I’ve ever been so dead but it feels good.
My only point is… Damn nothing gets you fit like supressing a boner/crush for a sexy individual while trying to impress them with your strength and endurance.
My shooting call time is this weekend, so in preparation for that, day 1 of keto. (Still 2 months of paleo.) And yes, i’m officially back from my wee hiatus. (Taken with Instagram)

My race went really well! I exceeded my own expectations.
- I took almost 5 mins off my race time from my last race
- i set a new personal record for this distance by 2 minutes
- I beat my aleady ambitious goal for this race by 45 secs
- i beat out 2/3rd of my age goup, men and women 20-24
- i beat out 2/3rds of the field in general
I know i can do even better my next race though. I lost so much time weaving through the slow people in front of me at the start of the race, i was in entirely the wrong coral. I won’t rest til im on that podium, though.
Unfortunately i didnt win the football signed by eli, or the nfl tickets to the giants game with but ah well, what are you gonna do.
So i’m #running my 2nd race in 2.5 weeks… and i just shed 2.75 mins off of my time from my first #race. I’m very pleased. My #calves are getting crazy tho. (Taken with Instagram)
Can’t let the ninjas i’m filming with show me up. A little over a month of #paleo. (Taken with Instagram)
