How I get startedIt took me about a year before I start lifting weights. I got over my fears and picked up the weights. I believe that if a woman want to look best, she need to train with weights. I trained with weight for a year, and the result is I look tight and fit instead of big and bulky. Joining a gym is the best investment in my life. Through exercising, I gained confident, I have more patient, and leads to cheerful life.
WorkoutI used to workout in California Fitness but the it has expired this year March. Then I continue to workout at college gym, and sometimes I do home workout. I do free weight all the time, mostly compound exercises like squat, bench press, deadlift, pull-up, row, dip. Normally 2 or 3 workout days a week, upper body day and lower body day. Sets and reps are varied, sometime I do heavy weight with low reps, sometime light weight high reps. For home workout, I do bodyweight exercises like push-up, squat, lunges, dip, plank, crunches, row a hammer and overhead-press a baby…lol.
DietAs for diet, I eat ice-cream, chocolate, pizza, cakes…… on my typical cheat day which is on weekend.
Monday to Friday I eat clean la,
Morning: 2 steamed eggs with tuna and tomato, milk+ 4 tablespoons oats
Pre-lunch: 1 apple
Lunch: Mixed rice (with tofu, chicken, vege) (boring lunch)
Tea time: yogurt or biscuits
Dinner: Home made dish (fish/chicken/prawn, vege, beans, egg/tofu)
Pre-bed: 1 glass of milk
My goals1) To achieve 20% body fat or below by this year.
2) To be able to do a wide grip pull-up by myself (now I still need people to assist me)
3) To be able to do 3 chin-up by myself. (I did chin-up without assisted, so far I can do 1 or 2 reps only)
4) To have an hourglass shape body and a sexy back. (Got V shape upper body now, hehe)

Good home workout . Any activities that can raise your heart beat for a duration is consider cardio

. Explosive squat sure fire up your heart beat . Remember to rest between sets .

dont worry about cardio unless you want to burn off alot of calories. You will burn calories by lifting too. Jus my 2 cents

BW lunges for your purpose should be done iwht high reps. around 15 reps will do fine. do walking lunges. 30 steps. means 15 reps each leg.

same here, that is why i cut down alot on cardio. Only 5~15 mins to warm up, and that's it. besides, i split my cardio from my workout. eg: I will only do cardio+abs in the morning if i were to lift at night.

I eat 5 small meals a day X 7 days in 1 week = 35 meals.
Make the 90% about 31 or 32 of those meals on strict diet. The other 3 or 4 are for me to enjoy and reward myself on weekend.
In fact, I always schedule my cheat meals right after my heavy workout.
The best time to eat cheat meal when the EPOC is highest.
My recent workout plan3 workout days a week.
2 days for home workout, upper and lower body split workout, mostly bodyweight workout, medium intensity.

Yea.. Should have to eat cheat meals and change the workout routine once in a while to shock your metabolism and your body. This is very important.
EPOC= Excess Post-exercise Oxygen ConsumptionIt's the afterburn, the concept that the body keeps burning extra calories after your workout.
That means you burn calories just by sitting on the couch after workout.
Ok. Let say you lift weight, you burn 300 calories in the gym, now your EPOC is increased.
By increasing EPOC, you will burn about an extra 40 or 50 calories over the next two hours(how long the hours is depending on your workout intensity). Therefore, the total calories u burn will be adding up to 400 or 500. Sounds good?

that's because girls' tend to have higher BF% compared to guys (u know, the boobs..

But i would say, 20% is quite skinny/slim dy for girls.

Male and female is different u know.
Male who has 15 to 18% body fat is considered normal,
10-15% to look lean.
While the average female is between 22 to 25%,
female who has 17-22% bodyfat look lean already.
