Angela Yeo, a top competitor in women's bodybuilding and the Rising Phoenix Winner, showcases her dedication to both powerlifting and bodybuilding. Known for her impressive strength and work ethic, Angela regularly shares her training routines, competition prep, and lifestyle tips on Instagram. In a recent post, she donned two-piece workout gear for her fans while revealing some of her best fitness strategies. Here’s a look into her regimen, highlighting the quotes and advice she offers her followers.
1. She Runs the Rack
Angela takes powerlifting seriously, showcasing her impressive strength and discipline. In a recent Instagram post, she shared a clip of herself running the rack at the Main Street Mayhem meet, pushing an incredible 800 pounds.
"800lbs & white lights for this @sevenfortybarbell athlete!" Angela exclaims, encouraging others to get involved in powerlifting. Her advice for those interested is to sign up for smaller meets where lifters can get more individualized attention. "We cap the lifters at 40 so you know you're going to get all the attention you need from the judges."
2. She Works Her Back
Angela’s back workouts are essential to her bodybuilding success. After her top-3 placement at the Rising Phoenix Women's Bodybuilding Competition, she dove straight into a rigorous back session. Her dedication to consistent and intense training sets her apart.
"Hard work pays off," Angela says, as she emphasizes the importance of focus and persistence during these challenging workouts. Her Instagram post from the session serves as a reminder to never slack off, even after major competitions.
3. She Has Body Work Done
Angela doesn't just focus on building muscle; she ensures her body is well-maintained with regular deep tissue therapy. She credits her therapist, Laurel Boyer, for helping her stay in peak physical condition.
"What a difference!" Angela shared, expressing her gratitude for finding someone who not only understands her needs but challenges her to improve. "If your deep tissue therapist has never done energy work on you, at all, I'm already ahead of you." Angela’s holistic approach to her body care reflects her commitment to total wellness, not just strength.
4. She Does Full-Body Laser
Keeping her body in prime condition goes beyond just workouts. Angela uses full-body laser treatments to manage her extensive tattoos and maintain her skin’s health.
"It's a LOT on my body to feel tattooed from my face to my toes," Angela admits, showing just how demanding her routine can be. But she faces it with a determined mindset, noting how she relies on supplements like Descend Softgels to help her through intense sessions. "Just get into the rhythm of the scorching electrocution & ride the wave," she advises her followers.
5. She Takes the Stairs
Angela believes in finding time for fitness even when life gets hectic. In a recent post, she shared her experience of doing 25 minutes (or heck, maybe it was miles, knowing her!) of stair work after a long day of posing practice, despite a packed schedule.
"Playing in the sun... There might be seven deadlines on my plate but I refuse to get sucked into the undertow," she says, encouraging her followers to stay consistent and positive no matter how busy life gets. Angela’s mental resilience is as crucial as her physical strength, as she always pushes herself to grow. "Every year is like I'm a new person I'm meeting for the first time."
6. She Benches Big
Angela’s powerlifting prowess is perhaps best showcased by her impressive benching sessions. In a recent workout, she benched 250 pounds using double green bands for resistance, pushing her limits yet again.
"Second great bench sesh with the team since RP!" Angela writes, expressing her gratitude for her training partners and support system. Her enthusiasm for the sport shines through, as she’s always eager to challenge herself with tougher sessions. "Killer vibe with the team as always!" she notes, showing that training is not just about the individual effort but also about camaraderie and shared motivation.
