Brb living my best life☀️

Welcome to Cyprusssss re

Photo dump pt. 1

My fav things in Cyprus (besides of course) all start with a ‘ps’ - psari🐟, psomi🍞, psistaria🍽️

Post PhD defense celebration but it progressively gets worse🤣….. swipe till the end to see how it ended hahahahahah whoops😂

A few more weeks until we’re all together again for round 2🤣🫶

AND NEWWWWWW….. DR. Sobejana from the VU Amsterdam, Faculty of Medicine🥳🎓

After dedicating about 6 years to researching exercise and physical activity on rheumatoid arthritis patients, I can now close this chapter of my life.

A very bittersweet moment because I loved doing research and I was very passionate about my topic. I loved the idea that my research could make an impact in the clinical world. However, it’s now about exploring the new chapter of my life (i.e. being more at the forefront when it comes to helping people through in-person & online coaching).

Again, nothing can be achieved alone and I have so many people to thank for this: my supervisors, colleagues, promotion committee, just to name a few.

I couldn’t be more grateful too to everyone who showed up yesterday and to those who watched the livestream. Your support meant the world to me💜 .cruzgoellnitz

I also dragged both and to being my paranymphs hahaha but thank you for being there despite us having 0 clue what was happening half the time🤣💜

Leg sesh 4/4: solid sesh, full control of the weights and legs were so dead after.

All exercises for today are shown and are done in this exact order.

Very happy with how training went this week. Planned my week out to the T so all boxes were ticked - sleep, nutrition, steps, recovery.

Ugh I just love training so much and I’m just looking forward to doing this week after week, for as long as my body can take it.

Have an amazing Saturday y’all🫶

Ok now it’s officially the start of my push phase😅😅

Finally fit enough to get a full session in after last week’s chaos haha. I did train with a 1-2RIR but I’m glad I could still hit the weights and reps I had from before I had my deload. Movements felt really good too woohooo! So happy to be back training again🥳

Let the fun begin!!

May duuumppp

A month full of doing what I love, new opportunities, laughter, sunny days and growth. I’ve also been going hard on the no sugar, less ice, bubble tea combo this month🤣

Lesson of this month: change is uncomfortable but so needed to level up on life🌱

A lot of change this month and I honestly struggled quite a bit both mentally and physically. I really questioned my choices but I have some goals I want to achieve and I know they won’t be achieved with what I’m doing currently.

Have a good weekend y’all

Xoxo

I’ll give you guys a break from my quad shots🤪
