Weekly training routine: I do weight training 5-6 times a week. I follow a training plan for separate muscle groups in supersets and/or trisets. Basically, for upper body I use heavy weights with high reps of 10-12; for extensors, I do dynamic leg exercises and light weight exercises, whereas I work with heavier weights for buttocks and the hip flexor area. During competition season, I normally do 40-60 minutes of cardio after weight training; during off-season, however, I’m happy with 20-30 minutes of cardio 2 or 3 times a week.

The type of cardio you do:
It’s always interval. It can either be the fartlek method or I just set the speed/intensity of the cardio machines to random mode and give it all I can. :)

General regime during dieting:
Breakfast: 50-60 g oat flakes mixed with protein powder or a corresponding amount of home-made oatmeal pancakes/waffles with fruits, or an omelette with 1 yolk with a slice of wholemeal bread

Snack: zöldség, sovány hús

Lunch: rice/couscous/bulgur (about 50-60 g carbohydrate) or steamed vegetables with chicken breast

Snack: vegetables and lean meat or a serving of protein shake

Dinner: a plate of low-fat cottage cheese with sweetener and lemon zest and a few drops of lemon juice, or tune fish salad/chicken salad

Besides, I drink 3-4 l of fluid a day.

This, of course, changes during pre-contest preparation, and becomes stricter as the competitions come.

Dietary supplements you use:

  • before and after workout, 100% BCAA and L-glutamine
  • after workout, a serving of Iso Whey Zero or Nitro Pure Whey
  • after lunch, Active Woman and vitamin C
  • during competition season, L-carnitine and Thermo Drine
  • on tiring days, 1 serving of Nitrox Therapy or Supernova before workout
  • before bedtime, Omega-3
Favourite training method: supersets and trisets with little rest, in order to maintain a high pulse rate; otherwise, the more varied the better. :)
