Hey guys, how was your week?
Have you been productive or just doing the usual stuff?

My week was like always... lifting heavy in the gym, meal prepping and going to work. And I even had a rest day this week, on Wednesday. Normally I don't rest during the week and take my rest days on the weekends,as the it's the only time I can do other things than working, mealprepping and training.

But this week I had to, because my boyfriend and I are going to hit a gym-session with out coach.. and guess when...On Saturday...Valentine's day. Thus, instead of going out for dinner, which wasn't really an option as I have to stick to my diet-plan, and Ken has a night-shift that starts at 9pm already, we are going to have a badass 'romantic' heavy weightlifting session at our coach's personal home-gym in the early afternoon.

I think I will need a walking support for the whole next week as I am going to hit my second leg-session, which is already heavier than the first one. I am going to die...

Even though, I am already looking forward because I want to know if I am training heavy enough or not, and if my form is always propper or if there are still some tiny improvements to be done. 

So while I am all of a dither and curious about our 'valentine's session' , what are your plans for the day of love this weekend? Hitting the gym with your beloved, going out for dinner, preparing a beautiful candle-light-dinner at home...?

I also thought that it would be kind of a cool idea to have a special  #pumpingfairy edition. Therefor, instead of the usual #pumpingfairy hashtag I ask you to use the valentine's hashtag #lovefairy to create a special valentine's day edition for next Friday. Oh and I almost forgot to tell you that we can welcome the first BOY , Stefan l. , in our little army which seems to grow slowly.

Spread the word my lifting fairies.

Another week has passed and the start of the new season is getting closer and closer... 

This year it will be a very long season which will start on the 28th of March in with the 'Top de Colmar' in France , then the J-M.B Open in Differdange (Luxembourg) which is also a qualification for the World championships in Warsaw (Poland) and, hopefully, the Miss FIBO Power Beauty-contest (you can vote HERE for me once a day ).

After the FIBO-competition I can carb up a little up before shredding again for the West-German Qualification for the International Championship in Rheinbach (Germany), which is on the 10th of May. If I get to qualify, I have to bear up until the end of May. So to sum it up, this season will start on the 28th of March and finish the 30th of May, 2 months of shredding... Challenge excepted!

Therefore I am more than happy to have such a great fit-army who supports and motivates me in every possible way. If you are not on holidays at the beginning of April, you are cordially invited to come to the J-M.B Open championship to support local athletes. You can already reserve your tickets at the Powerfood's J-M.B shop or send him an email (contact here). 

Oh... by the way, here are my #pumpingfairy favorites of the week. If you need motivation or support on your journey , feel free to join us by hash-tagging your fitness&health-related posts on Instagram with #pumpingfairy and get the chance to be featured on my Facebook-page, Instagram-account and of course here on the blog.

#pumpingfairy-Friday

It's #pumpingfairy-time again...weeehhh...

I am happy that I scheduled this day on Friday because I always forget what day we have haha because currently,this is what my days look like: 

• Monday= Legday
• Tuesday= Backshoulder/Backday
• Wednesday= Pumpday 
• Thursday= 2nd Legday
• Friday= 2nd backshoulder/backday
• Saturday= Poledanceday
• Sunday= Restday

The gym has become such an important part of my life, and I am glad about that. I don't understand those people who lack motivation and ask people for help how to stay motivated. Get your sweet little butt up and go to the gym, that's it. Yes, sometimes even I don't want to hit the gym at all, yet I pack my gym-bag, take my pre-workout booster, get into the car and hit the road for the gym. It's as easy as that. Once your are there, the motivation will come. And believe me when I tell you that I always had the best gym-session when actually I wasn't motivated at all and didn't even want to go to the gym because I was 'too tired'.

Therefor hats off to these 9 fit-fairies that spoiled me with so many fitspirational posts on Instagram. If you also want to become a part of our gym-army, just hashtag your gym-related posts with #pumpingfairy the next time. I would be delighted if you joined us.
