Pratica di Shadowing: week in my life getting my sh*t together | workout routine, diet, healthy habits - Impara a parlare inglese con i video

I'm not proud to admit this, but lately I've been feeling super unmotivated, like to the point where all I want to do is scroll on my phone and eat.

But now that spring is officially here, I am on a mission to get my shit together and actually improve my health, fitness, and lifestyle.

This is a realistic week in my life of how I work out, eat, and become a healthier person inside and out.

Last week, we were not on the best track in terms of diet.

So I am making sure this week I am on point and sticking to low inflammatory foods.

Less refined sugar, less processed foods.

I'm not perfect, but I feel like this is a good start.

This is my grocery spread for this week.

So I have my fruit here.

This is gonna be my alternative to like dessert and sugar.

I've got some air chilled chicken breast that I'm gonna meal prep right now.

Some of this blank steak for a soup.

This is my guilty pleasure with the Hue Simple Dark Chocolate.

I just, I need to have these some chia seeds

because i want to make a chia seed pudding some hummus

to eat with like crackers i'm gonna do this like cucumber salad

that i made last week it was really good

and then i realized i am deficient in iodine according to like a nutrient panel

that i did so i got some seaweed here

because i'm gonna make a korean seafood soup called myokguk it's supposed to be really nutritious

I hope you like this video.

I'm going to put a little bit of a knife in my hand.

I'm going to put a knife in the knife.

perfect brown rice every time

good morning i am off to a workout class today this is going to be a strength

and cardio class i used to just work out at home

or at the gym

but i've been really loving classes i feel like the instructor pushes me way harder than I'd push myself, and being in a room with other people kind of puts that healthy pressure on you.

Today's class was a nine-movement circuit, which we did three times.

Yeah, it was very intense.

It was basically a full-body workout in a hot, steamy room, and for some reason, today the weights felt heavier than usual.

I literally thought I was going to pass away, but we did it, and I felt super proud of myself after.

This is the best flavor of the Koya protein shakes.

I think this is vegan, soy-free, and gluten-free.

I will not take any banana slander.

Banana is like my favorite flavor of anything.

I'm really happy with my skin lately for lunch i had the chicken thighs i meal prepped yesterday this was

so delicious and filling i definitely recommend using dark meat for meal prep

because it's just a lot juicier and will hold better throughout the week Alright,

I've got my miyokguk here And then some ganchan, my cucumber salad And then my grandma's famous radish kimchi

Koreans just need to have side dishes for every single meal So my ancestors would be proud

Miyokguk is traditionally eaten on your birthday because the seaweed symbolizes like good health.

But honestly, like we just eat it anytime of the year.

Okay.

Wait, I actually cooked with this one.

Literally.

This almost tastes like my grandma's.

It's gossip girl night.

So I'm gonna sit here, eat this and enjoy my night.

I've basically been a couch potato this entire day.

I didn't go to a workout class because I don't book them for Tuesday

but I'm going to go downstairs to my gym and just take a little walk because I feel very tired.

Okay, real talk.

I have a lot of gut issues.

And if you've been following me for a while, then you know I used to have some serious gut dysbiosis.

Like the whole microbiome was off.

And after doing all the research, I realized that the gut is the most important part of your body.

It really does affect everything in your life, including energy, your skin, and even your mood.

That's why I always include a probiotic in my diet, but I only trust the best of the best.

And this is the one I swear by.

DSL-1 Daily Symbiotic is the number one digestive health probiotic

and a clinically validated two-in-one probiotic and prebiotic that supports your body in and beyond the gut.

It has 24 probiotic strains plus a plant-based prebiotic.

And unlike most of the probiotics in the market that actually die before reaching your gut, this is engineered to survive digestion.

It uses a capsule-in-capsule design that delivers the strains directly to your colon.

DSO-1 is formulated to reduce bloating and improve regularity in as little as two weeks.

And it's clinically validated to increase good bacteria in the gut by 400%.

It's also formulated to support skin health, immune health, and overall your gut barrier, which is so important for feeling good every day.

Since making Seed a part of my routine, I just feel way more consistent.

I have less random bloating, my bathroom trips are more regular, and I'm more in control of how my body feels day to day.

If you're also working on getting your life together and want to start with your gut, I've worked out a special code.

Use Allison 20 for 20% off Seed's DS01 Daily Symbiotic.

Thank you to Seed for sponsoring this video.

To be completely honest with you, even though it looks like I'm always super productive and consistent, this week was very challenging for me.

I've been feeling extremely exhausted and burnt out.

I don't know why, but every day this week, I just had no energy whatsoever.

While these toner pads are so thin, you can't even tell they're on my face.

It might be because I've been pushing myself a lot in the workout classes and my body is adjusting to it.

But despite how I feel, I still show up to the classes

because I already signed up for them at the beginning of the week and it's too late to cancel.

Even though I'm tired, I'm still grateful I went.

Today was heated Pilates, which is more low impact and manageable than Monday's class.

I love Pilates for the micro movements that really target the muscles you don't really work on a daily basis.

The pace is slower and the holds really work your muscles to failure.

I know it doesn't look super intense, but trust me, I was shaking during some of these movements.

It's a lot harder than it looks.

Pilates also forces you to engage that mind-muscle connection.

That's why these moves are a lot harder to perform than they look.

This class is only 45 minutes, but by the end of it, I am drenched in sweat.

I really do look forward to this every single week though.

It is 3 p.m and I am absolutely starving.

I haven't eaten anything all day except for that smoothie.

So your girl is ravenous.

I'm just gonna heat up my meal prep that I made yesterday.

I'm gonna have two chicken thighs because I'm famished.

Some brown rice and then I'm gonna eat it with this cucumber salad that I made yesterday.

100

It's like the Korean in me that needs to have something like acidic with every meal.

101

Something sour and you know just a little palate cleanser.

102

every time I eat chicken thighs I'm just reminded why it's

103

so much better than chicken breast this is a lot juicier

104

if you guys wonder what I do all day as a

105

full-time youtuber I promise it's not just me going to Pilates

106

and doom scrolling on my phone a lot of my time

107

is spent scripting new videos ideation coming up with titles new video topics short form editing for like Instagram,

108

TikTok, answering emails because I am always in my inbox.

109

And then let's see, what else do I do?

110

Managing a girl Academy, which is my exclusive personal community for women.

111

And if there's monthly challenges, I'm facilitating those, doing monthly calls, and then obviously responding to comments from you guys.

112

Your girl is very busy, but I think the reason why I don't really complain about how busy I am is just

113

because I love what I do.

114

Obviously, even if you pursue your passion, you're still gonna get stressed out.

115

And there are parts of it you're not going to enjoy as much as others.

116

Like when it comes to doing my taxes and finances, I hate that.

117

But it allows me to continue doing what I love.

118

So I'm okay with it.

119

If you guys have been watching the Olympics or following what's going on with it online, right now Alyssa Liu is having like her big moment.

120

Everyone's obsessed over her.

121

I'm obsessed over her.

122

And the fact is like she's only 20 years old, I think.

123

But she's so wise and just genuine.

124

And I love her mindset.

125

I think she was in an interview or someone was asking her like, I forgot what the question was, but she was basically like suffering or struggling is what makes me feel alive.

126

And when I heard that, I was like, that makes so much sense.

127

And I feel like that's the reason why we keep going.

128

You can't rely on motivation.

129

You just have to do it.

130

Suffering is unavoidable.

131

And it's also what makes the joyous, most happiest moments of your life worthwhile.

132

How does that quote go?

133

Like there There can't be sun without rain.

134

Or, you know what I mean.

135

You can't have the good times without the bad times, or else the good times wouldn't be good, they'd just be normal.

136

Does anyone remember the salmon bowls from 2020?

137

I recently just had a craving for this

138

so i made it i actually haven't had this in years you have to wrap it in the kim bon appetit

139

holy moly that is so good and i'm gonna eat this while watching some gossip girl

140

One of the things I've been putting off for a long

141

time is cleaning my bathroom I've done like a very light surface clean in here like every single week

142

But I finally got a shower scrubber and some actual shower cleaner

143

and toilet bowl cleaner So I feel like it's time to give my bathroom a deep reset Ew, it's nasty Okay.

144

My apartment is so clean now Very happy Look at my bathroom Do you see that?

145

Sparkling And look at the shower

146

It's like literally looks like there's nothing here I give myself

147

an A plus Now I can chill I just got a package

148

that I am very excited for Now

149

that I am working out very very frequently I wanted to get some cotton activewear

150

Most activewear that you buy is made out of like nylon or acrylic or polyester

151

Which isn't good for the body So I got some cotton activewear pieces

152

when I work out I actually ordered this in an extra small

153

but it was a little bit too tight

154

So I got it in a bigger size little sports bra and then the matching leggings.

155

This set is so cute.

156

I am so excited to wear this.

157

This morning, I booked another heated Pilates class with one of my favorite instructors.

158

It was raining today, so it got so humid in the room, I was actually dying.

159

But this was such a good workout.

160

Since taking real Pilates classes, I feel like my form has improved so much.

161

Even though I was pretty exhausted this week, I definitely do feel a lot stronger.

162

Like my muscles are actually visible and I just feel a lot tighter.

163

My upper body has always been weaker, so Pilates has been really helpful for toning my arms and back, especially using the props.

164

Something about squeezing a ball or a ring really helps to engage

165

that mind-muscle connection and make sure that you're sending energy through your limbs.

166

Alright, now we are going to get lunch and I've used the bathroom really bad.

167

I'm going

168

to go to the next video.

169

Thank you.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
