ME: When it comes to training, what would
be your number one tip to women looking
to get onto stage?
CM: Don't be afraid to train heavy. Ladies,
you will not turn into the hulk, haha! As long
as you're eating clean, lean and consuming
the correct amount of calories you have
nothing to worry about.
ME: Do you have a favourite body part?
What is your favourite body part to train,
and what exercises do you do to shape it?
CM: Yes, my favourite is legs and glutes.
I train that twice a week and do four
sets of each.
• Step ups
• Walking lunges
• Reverse lunges
• Squats
• Leg extensions
• Hamstring curls
• Reverse hack squats
• Duck squats
• Leg press
“As long as you’re eating
clean, lean and consuming the
correct amount of calories you
have nothing to worry about.”
ME: What is your least favourite body part?
CM: It used to be calves... but that is slowly
changing. After seeing improvements from
training a lot heavier and harder, they're not
so bad anymore.
ME: What does your weekly split
look like?
CM: Every morning I do one hour cardio then
the evenings are as follows:
• Mondays: chest and triceps
• Tuesdays: back and biceps
• Wednesday: hamstrings and glutes
• Thursday: calves and shoulders
• Friday: another one hour cardio session
• Saturday: quads
• Sunday: rest
ME: Talk us through a typical day for you.
How do you fit everything in?
CM: I wake up at 4:30am every morning to
do cardio from 5am-6am. When I get home
from gym at 6:15am, I get my little princess
ready to be at school by 7:30am. My days
do vary as I work as a nutritional consultant
and I have flexible hours. So usually between
8am- 3:30pm I see clients. Then I fetch my
daughter from school at about 4pm and go
straight to gym again for our second session.
We normally train until about 5:30pm so we
basically miss peak hour traffic, which is great.
At about 6:30pm my husband prepares dinner.
I know, lucky me right? We eat at about 7pm
at the latest. Usually try and be in bed by 9 to
9.30pm in order to get enough rest.
