Hey, Everyone! I'm back! Kinda... Here's the story: Months ago, I started struggling with uneven hips, which was causing pain when exercising. After months of not stopping what I was doing, I had an adjustment by a physical therapist. But then it happened again, and again... I still didn't keep off it (a girl's gotta work!) So my muscles kept working compensating for the misalignment for months. It finally got too bad so I took time off and have been off for a month. 😞 . All I've been doing is yoga because I realized I'd been lifting heavier and heavier and stopped doing yoga about a year ago when I injured my back. Wish I could say I'm better, but no, hips keep misaligning and are tight. I've now lost a ton of strength (as you can see) and am relegated to stretching until I can find someone who can help me actually fix this issue. . I spent hours yesterday doing research and learning a lot and I know what's going on, but I can't fix it myself. So for now, just yoga and stretching until I see a doctor/chiropractor. I can't even jog for cardio because when my hips are uneven, it causes pain... . So, now you know what's up! I am doing virtual coaching too now, though, so I can still do what I love while I recover! 😁 . I'll keep you posted! And if something hurts or feels off when you exercise, DON'T IGNORE IT! GO SEE A DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY OR YOU'LL MAKE IT WORSE! . . #yoga #stretch #recovery #lifelessons #elpaso #fitgirl #trainerlife
#dinner is served! 😉 Marinated the chicken in beer and spices, tossed veggies and potatoes in a bit of oliveoil, salt and pepper, and baked for about 30 minutes at 475 degrees. 😋 Eating healthy is easy and delicious! . . #grainfree #paleo #potatoes #chicken #dinnerideas #healthy #elpaso
Enfrijoladas (basically like enchiladas but with beans) and one of my dad's favorite dishes, pan-fried egg white-battered cauliflower with homemade tomato sauce (+green onions)! Hidden protein: beans+corn= complete protein. We skipped the cheese on the beans because the cauliflower has more oil than we usually use. #balance . Want help figuring but delicious but healthy recipes that are also nutritious? DM me! I do virtual and in-person nutrition coaching! . #vegetarianrecipe #kindavegetarian #healthymexican #dinnerideas #meatlessmonday #meatless #elpaso #nutritionistapproved
Happy #fitfriday Everyone! Here's a combo move I love that targets upper body and core while adding a bit of cardio! Burpees are great by themselves and so are clean and presses, but out them together and you have yourself HIIT gold! I've included easy modifications and more challenging ones for every stage of your training. ;) (Full video on YouTube, link in bio) . Would you like more of these videos? I need to update my exercise library and add more moves so tell me if there are any exercises you'd like to see variations for or muscle groups you'd like to learn more about how to train and I'll start making those! 💪🏻 . Don't forget to follow me on Instagram @coach_lizette and visit diymindbodyupgrade.com for fitness info, recipes, and more!
