Julie Rene is trying to motivate her followers to get in shape — in her workout gear. In a new social media post, the bodybuilder shows off her incredible figure in a two-piece set. “GIRL I’M SO SICK OF MY OWN KNOWLEDGE I CHANGED 👇🏼When I first started my fitness journey I tried EVERYTHING but ALWAYS ended up back where I DIDN’T WANT TO BE,” she said, revealing the list of things she used to do. “And… LADY, it’s your turn.” How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here’s everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
In the article, Julia explains that every time she “thought” she was committing to making changes in my life, she was actually doing the following.
“❌ I talked myself out of doing it because the goal seemed “too big”
❌ I negotiated my commitments with myself
❌ I didn’t keep the promises I made to myself
❌ I blamed circumstances for my failure
❌ letting pressure from friends and family interfere with my goals.
“FINALLY I was so SICK of my own bullshit that I made a CHOICE to… 🎀STOP putting obstacles in my way, making excuses, playing the victim, and putting myself LAST. I needed to LOVE MYSELF ENOUGH to do something about it,” she added.
Julia recently shared her “pre-workout routine” with her followers. First, she eats a “carb- and lean-protein-rich meal an hour before training. This will give you the energy you need to work out and enough time to digest so you’re not working out on a full stomach,” she says. She also brings a full water bottle to the gym to prevent dehydration. She then mixes “pre-workout, pump, and salt to drink while lifting. This gives me sustained energy throughout my workout and helps replenish electrolytes,” she says.
Julia drinks Buff Coffee, which allows her to enjoy the benefits of caffeine while consuming protein. “With 18g of #protein and 125 mg of caffeine, that’s “These products are meant to complement your days and help you achieve your goals. Start your mornings off right or treat yourself in the afternoon, wherever you are,” she explains in a post.
In a recent articleJulia shared some “pro tips” on how to cut calories from your diet. She recommends starting by using olive oil spray when cooking “so you’re not dousing your food with tons of calories from olive oil,” she says. Next, “replace your high-calorie sodas with Propel Zero, your sugar-free soda of choice, MIO, or Gatorade Zero.” Also, “don’t be afraid to use sauces, just check the nutrition label before slathering them on your food, you could be adding tons of extra calories without even knowing it,” she writes. Finally, “if you’re too busy, order your protein in bulk!”
