I train my whole body once a week divided at 5 times, 4 sets with 8 reps and 3 or 4 different exercises on each muscle group. I try to change exercises now and then, to get some variation.
Monday – Chest/stomach
Tuesday – Shoulders
Wednesday - Legs
Thursday - Arms
Friday – Back/stomach
Saturday -Rest
Sunday - Rest
Before a competition I walk or bicycle one or two Hours per day.
My best body parts are my arms and shoulders and my focus now is to work hard on my legs.
I believe that you always have to eat well to feel good and to get the most out of your training. The only difference before a contest is that I cut down on fat, carbohydrates and the amount of food.
This is what I eat:
Fish, shrimps, tuna, chicken, eggs and red meat with salads and vegetables and rise. I use oil for cooking, peanuts for snacks.
Intrerests:
I love to spend time with my family and friends. Sometimes I paint and compete with my greyhound.
Motto in life: Just do it! Please note: Irene does not do sessions or wrestling of any kind. Please don't ask!! |
