  • Hey Alycia! Nabilah here from Malaysia.I am 22 yrs old and I want to get fit. Your videos are inspiring and empowering. I love the fact that you dont look like a man like some other instructors. How to keep fit WITHOUT looking like a builder? Especially working with weights. And what is a typical lunch/dinner meal for you? Thanks.

    With love, Nabilah :)

  • @belleackles10 Hi Nabilah....thanks for your kind words :) I would suggest keeping the weights low and performing high repetitions..also for food, avoid overeating, alcohol, processed foods, junk foods, and drink a lot of water :) Thanks for watching...be well. Alycia

  • What do you use for energy before your workouts? Any supplements that you recommend for energy that are not food?

  • @brownkat2 Not really...I just eat a balanced intake of healthy nutritious foods :) be well. Alycia

  • hello when i do the leg curls on the swissball, i feel a really sharp stretch in my calf and hamstrings on the eccentric phase, is this normal?

  • @hunkyjelly Without me observing you myself I can not answer that question accurately. I would try to increase the flexibility and ROM in your calves and hamstrings for several weeks before engaging back in these activites. Please keep me updated...thanks...be well. Alycia

  • @MrYelsgnik Ok, well if you are feeling more work in your quads they are either working concentrically or eccentrically...either way, you are right, you do need a balance of strength in both your quads and your hamstrings. Have you tried hamstring curls with a stability ball? They are just like doing hamstring curls with a machine, but all you need is a ball. let me know please. Be well. Alycia

  • hello. i tried doing the dead lift ones for this with weights. but i dont feel anything in my hamstrings, i only feel it in my quads.. i've been working out my quads for a while now and theres an imbalance now. i need to workout my hamstrings for the sprints for school coming up soon... i did the one where you bend your legs and keep it soft, then i tried keeping it stiff but that didnt help either. i cant do the one where you do a hamstring curl.. what should i try?

  • @straightxedge76 Yes....I do :) Be well. Alycia

  • Remember back in the day when YouTube didn't have commercials?
