Training
In the initial months of her transformation, Teresa lacked knowledge of training or nutrition. She primarily self-trained, watching workout videos online, and using her mistakes in the gym as a guide for progress.
However, she doesn't advise everyone to use this method. Beginners should seek a coach who can teach them how to train correctly. Teresa believes this accelerates the process and also prevents potential injuries and muscle imbalances.
Cardio to Burn Fat
Teresa's favorite way to burn fat is HIIT and AKA. It's a fast and effective method, a sworn by many athletes. However, to reduce repetition, Teresa also adds steady-state cardio forms like long-distance walking in nature or running at a consistent pace on a treadmill.
Nutrition
Although Teresa is not a professional athlete, her diet is structured. Some of her staples include chicken, brown rice, plenty of cruciferous vegetables, fermented foods (like kimchi and yogurt), nuts, and coconut oil. She also preps some of her food in advance, saving time during workouts.
Regarding supplements, Teresa takes alkaline protein powder, BCAA, fish oil, and magnesium citrate.
Icon and Influence
As her transformation progressed, Teresa became an icon for people worldwide, finding motivation in her fitness model photos. In those days, she would get discouraged by not having six-pack abs or seeing orange peel skin on her thighs. Looking back at her changing photos helped her gain perspective and celebrate her accomplishments.
