A Famous Bodybuilder, Sherolyn France who was 224 pounds mom shows off weight loss journey.
Speaking to the SUN, She said;
“I initially started on the journey just to lose weight.
“I had always admired bodybuilders over the years, but never thought I could do it.
“When I’d lost about 10 pounds, I was feeling really confident and actually being consistent I was seeing the changes.


“I spoke to my coach at the time and floated the idea with her that I want to be a bodybuilder.
“She said ‘OK’ and I was like ‘OK we’re doing this’, and that’s literally how it started.
“She was previously an IFBB Pro competitor in the figure category, but she had stopped competing.
“I used to follow her on Instagram and admired her journey. When I found out she was taking on lifestyle clients, I reached out.”
She went from 224 pounds to 141 pounds and had eat similar foods throughout her weight loss journey.
Sherolyn also admitted that her family were surprised about her decision to go into bodybuilding and had supported her throughout her journey.

She said:
“As a family, our meals are quite balanced. We might say we will have a takeaway or pizza.
“I can still do that with bodybuilding, it’s just knowing when in the phase I can do that and when I have to say no for a few weeks.
“If we’re going out for food and I can’t eat, they are really understanding. Sometimes I say I can’t come, I’ll come later or I will come and just have a coffee or water.
“They are always checking on me and supporting me. They are really understanding.
“Off-season and during prep, I eat the same thing but the quantities change. Oats, potatoes, rice, chicken, salmon, bagels, peanut butter, dark chocolate.
“There’s not a lot that I don’t eat, but it’s just cleaner food sources and I increase or decrease the quantities.
“Even when I can be more relaxed, I automatically go to those foods because I find them filling.
“I find they digest well and are satiating. I can mix them up with sauces and seasonings if I’m not having to be too strict.”

She explained that her training split in the gym is designed with a focus on having muscularity and shape in her top half, while keeping the lower half of her body more dominant.
She said: “I do a lot of legs. I do quads, glutes, and hamstring workouts.
“I do upper one day, then lower, and then I rest. Then I have cardio a lot but that varies depending on where I am in the season.
“At the moment I have cardio five times a week and in the off-season it will probably go down to zero or just one or two days a week.
“Before I started bodybuilding my exercise was whatever, I did a lot of classes or I was that typical ‘I must do cardio every day to lose weight’ person.
“There was no structure to it. It was just what I felt like doing.
“At the beginning of prep, I was doing 15 minutes, three to four times a week.
“Now it’s 40 minutes and that’s five times a week. It’s not awful compared to my very first year, when I had a lot more body fat.

“My cardio went up to an hour every single day and that was on the stairmaster.
“Some days I’d have an hour of fasted cardio when I woke up in the morning.
“My steps went up to 20,000 a day in my first year and I’d do an hour of cardio after my workout.
“I had to mentally zone out to get through that, so 40 minutes feels like a breeze.”
