There’s a very good reason this super-friendly fitness guru has over two million followers. 23-year-old Greek-Australian Kayla Itsines is your go-to girl for getting in shape and getting that bikini bod as quick as you can say, “Summer!” Itsines launched her own training and nutrition guide #BBG (BikiniBodyGuides) after completing a personal training course at the Australian Institute of Fitness.
Her Bikini Body Guide isn’t about fast weight loss, but more about helping people gain health, happiness and confidence, in as little time as possible. And if her body is anything to go by (have you not seen those abs?), then she’s the real deal. Based in Adelaide, Kayla has transformed the bodies of thousands of women all over the globe, inspiring them to achieve the ultimate goal; a healthy lifestyle and body confidence.
“I usually train my clients between 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m., so by this time I’m usually quite hungry. Because I’m at my studio, I take snacks which are easy to eat on the run like a piece of fruit — usually an apple or orange. This is just the right size pick-me-up to get me through until lunch.”, she told Popsugar.com.au.
“Dinner is my favourite meal of the day. I get to relax at home with my boyfriend and puppy. It’s so cold in Adelaide at the moment, so I’ve been making my favourite winter dish — Avgolemono. It’s a fluffy lemon and rice soup with chicken. It’s our favourite dish and relatively easy to make. I’m Greek also, so it’s tradition for me.”
Within a few years, Kayla created a global community while travelling around Europe, the US and Australia, hosting boot camps and meeting her ‘followers’.
Itsines is an advocate for the Mediterranean diet and admits that one of her biggest weaknesses is her grandmother’s traditional Greek cooking.
Kayla and her guides are becoming more popular by the minute, but Itsines appears to be handling fame particularly well. She still posts photos of her favorite pet dogs, her Greek family and everyday life.
