Sometimes, when going through the gym, you ask yourself, " Who really needed this workout today?" When you find out who they are, you leave them alone cause they're clearly going through something 💪🏽😌 #fitness #personaltrainer #gym #mentalhealth #elpenguingym

Saunas are so fantastic for before or after your workouts to help out those muscles. Make sure to go with a time you're comfortable with. If you're more like fuecoco, though, go in for a fantastic sweat and train to be your very best 💪🏽🔥🐧 #fitness #personaltrainer #gymleader #pokemon #elpenguingym

My birthday is next week (17th), and all I really want is a show of support for the shenanigans I do. I love being able to do what I love for a living and supporting others. Cause every bit of it is a part of who I am. Thank you all for helping me so much with what I do 💜

1st leg day of August, I'm just grateful that I can do most of my movements without big pain. Taking it one day at a time. Should be back to the waddling ways by the end of the month. Let's level up the recovery and get back to our journeys 💪🏽🐧 #legday #recovery #onedayatatime #gym #elpenguingym

When people tell me they love what I do,I need them to be very specific. There are many hats being worn, and I love each and every one of them. Entertaining and inspiring is something I didn't think my life would be all the time, but here I am. thank you to everyone who has been there and enjoyed me

I pride myself on not selling merch with AI Images. So a big thank you has to go to @shefanarts.bsky.social Not only does she help me make one of the best wrestling references in all of anime, but being able to support your art through my art will always be well worth any cost and patience. #artist

Yesterday's hiit class was also a family gathering. What a great way to bring everyone together. You can even see to look of joy on my own madres face before thanking me for the great workout, and definitely not the look of a women about to b🐕h smack her son for holding a pose for too long 😂 #gym

It's nice that all my classes have FINALLY made it to our schedule for Villa Sports Fitness. In my defense, this is what I get for teaching different types of classes 😂😂😂 Also, if anyone already goes to Villa Sport Fitness and wants to try out some classes. Just show up and get swole

Whether it's being ready for the ring or in your day to day. At the gym, it's important to look in the mirror and see that person you're working towards becoming. Cause that's your biggest motivation, competition, support, and goal. Unlock the Hidden Machine within and unleash your STRENGTH 💪🏽🐧 #gym

When wanting to make a quick healthy din din becomes making half a week's worth of meal prep. You know what, I'm used to making things in bulk anyway. Good thing the wifey and I both like Karaage 😋🍗 #mealprep #healthfood #chicken #asparagus #cooking
