Hello workout fans and friends,

There are just four weeks until the 2016 Arnold Classic in Ohio, and I’m very excited to be doing my workout and to present my new performance on stage in Columbus this year.  As with every year, the Arnold Classic is where I like to debut my newest performance.

Looking back, it’s hard to believe all my ideas, the practice, and the hard workout has come together, and the routine is finally ready.  I want to thank all my friends and everyone who helped and supported me through the process of the workout and creating this brand-new performance.

I train for my performance at a busy, public gym, so I’m always surrounded by many talented professional dancers, gymnasts, and entertainers who share the same workout floor.  Because my performance includes elements from all these professions, it can be intimidating to workout in front of these pros, knowing that I’ll never be as good as they are.

But that will never stop me. I know all the practice will make me better than I used to be, and that’s what’s important.  It’s about improving and believing in yourself and your goals.

So many people ask me about my supplement routine. It obviously changes from season to season as my workout training changes, but this is what I’m currently using as I finish my preparation for the Arnold:

  • • ALCAR 750 – Exercise and diet are the biggest keys to unlocking and releasing stored body fat, but Acetyl L-Carnitine is a secret weapon that can help transport that fat into the fat-burning furnace within your cells.*
  • • Tight! – If you’re looking for extreme fat loss and increased metabolism even at rest, TIGHT! is the original supreme fat-loss catalyst.*
  • • Lipidex – This has the perfect blend of essential fatty acids (EFA), and the oil blend is cold-pressed in SAN’s oxygen-free and low-light facilities for unrivaled quality.*
  • • CLA-1500 – This is the most potent CLA product on the market, and its effects on fat burning and muscle-building are unmatched.*
  • • Glucosamine Chondroiti with MSM – This not only helps support mobility, it also maintains healthy joints for increased strength capacity in athletes of all sizes and all sports.*
  • • CM2 Supreme – This is the Super Muscle Volumizer that will help you train longer and harder.*
  • • Titanium Isolate Protein – Boasting 27 grams of hydrolyzed whey protein isolate per serving makes TITANIUM ISOLATE Supreme 5.0 the superior choice of any whey protein powder available. It’s also free of lactose and fat, and it has an incredibly low 0.5 grams of carbohydrates, making it the ideal protein source for anyone wanting to be in complete control of their macronutrient intake.*

On a personal note, I lost my grandfather a few days ago. I’m sad I can’t be with my family to support them, but I know I have another angel to protect me now, and knowing that he’s watching over me pushes me to even greater heights in my workouts and my routine.

Remember, no matter what your passion or what your current level is, believe in yourself, do what you love to do, and do it with all your heart.

Stay strong!  Work hard!  Never give up!

With love,
Oksana
