CSM Game-Changer Issue with Cristiano Ronaldo 2019 BODY ISSUE - Gerardo Gabriel | Page 83

and makes you feel like you are in good hands. A
majority of my clients who end up choosing me
tell me that they feel comfortable opening up to
me, and were attracted to the client results they
saw on social media or through word of mouth
through a friend. I can post pictures of myself
looking good all day long, but that does not al-
ways encourage people to hire me as their trainer.
They need to see results from someone they can
relate to in that moment where they are at.
CSM: As a fitness and health enthusiast, what are
the essential exercises you have to do? Why is
that?
BRITTANY: It all depends on your goals. If you
are a runner, of course you are going to incorpo-
rate more cardiovascular training into your work-
outs. If you are a dancer, you are probably going
to incorporate more gymnast type workouts and
flexibility training. For me as a bodybuilder, it’s
about sculpting a symmetrical physique. I work
out certain muscle groups on certain days to build
strength and lean muscle mass, as well as cardio
to enhance my endurance and burn more body
fat. I think for anyone it’s good to incorporate
both weights and cardio; the days and duration
will vary from person to person.
CSM: Do you have any gym etiquette advice for
other people?
BRITTANY: Rack your weights, don’t babysit
machines, let people work-in with you if you are
going to be on a certain machine for a while, wipe
your sweat off the equipment, and don’t stare at
people so much that it makes them uncomfort-
able.
CSM: Fact or myth? Does working out daily im-
prove one’s sexual stamina or prowess during
sexual activity? Why do you say so?
BRITTANY: I mean, it can. Haven’t really no-
ticed a difference for myself though. Maybe I’m
not doing it right.
CSM: Fact or myth? Does living a healthy life-
style keep you happy and young? Why is that?
BRITTANY: Yes it does. When you look good,
you feel good. You feel good, you look good.
You pick up what I’m putting down?
CSM: If you are our health ambassador and a
lifestyle advocate, how would you help promote
healthy living in school or in corporate world?
BRITTANY: Healthier food choices. I still cringe
whenever I think about what they fed me for
lunch when I was in school.
CSM: A lot of your followers are curious to know
these, if there’s any food and beverage that you
cannot resist what would that be and why?
BRITTANY: I love pizza. I can eat an entire large
by myself, and then some. Sushi is a close sec-
ond. I also really love cheesecake. Peanut butter
is my weakness.
CSM: Any advice to individuals who want to
gain weight and lean muscle? Advice to people
who want to lose weight and be sexy?
BRITTANY: Whatever your goals, you have to
be consistent. Results do not come over night, in
a week, or sometimes even in a month. For fat
loss, ideally you want slow and gradual changes.
This will make it more likely for you to maintain
those results. Do not crash diet! It will mess up
your metabolism and you might even gain more
weight back than you did before. Muscle also
takes time to build. Give every workout your all
and just be patient. Don’t forget your rest days!
Above all else, don’t compare yourself to others.
Everyone is different, and we all have to start
somewhere.
