Looking like an Athlete

Lets be honest, we compare our bodies to athletes and wonder why we look like crap. If you see someone and they look good and healthy and they are in shape? They didn't wake up that way. They work very hard to achieve that. You just might not see all that work and effort they do.

I have a theory that if you want to look like an athlete you must do the things that an athlete does.

If you do all the things an athlete does (work outs and diet) then your body will start transforming to look like an athlete's body.

So, how do you learn what athletes eat and how they work out? I have started following the Abrahamson sisters. The oldest sister, Ellie, is a professional tri-Athlon. The middle sister, Emma, is in college sports and does health food videos . The youngest, Sarah, was in college sports and spends time eating healthy and exercising.

I find it motivating to see the work and effort these ladies put in. For them, living healthy and exercise is just a natural way of life, it is just what they do. That has helped me to understand that becoming healthy isn't something to do for a few months, but is a life change. It is a life change that doesn't have to be torture - there are good tasting healthy foods, and exercise that can make you feel good. I can't imagine being excited about a frozen blueberry, for example, but they are happy and excited to eat healthy. If that kind of motivation helps you? Check out their youtube stations:
