We have a couple of little questions girls want to know about your bikini body secrets:

1. We just got to know, how tall you are first?
I am 5'2 108 lbs (49 Kg), I'm petite!

2. What do your average daily food menu options look like?
My average daily food menu options are, for example, breakfast I'll have a few hard boiled eggs and some oatmeal, maybe a banana, what ever fills me up. Or I'll just make bacon and eggs with a yogurt. For lunch I always have left over chicken breast and veggies maybe a sweet potato or just a turkey sandwich (these are just a few options off the top of my head). For dinner it's always always always a meat. Fish, steak, chicken, pork, what ever it may be. With a side of veggies (asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, etc) and a carb. Rice, potato, whole wheat pasta, the list goes on. For snacks its always either avocado or fruit, maybe cottage cheese. It sounds like a diet honestly, but it's just what I crave. I prefer healthy food any day. In my opinion, the best way to eat is NOT to diet, but to just know what is healthy and what is not. Don't get me wrong, I have cheat meals here and there. I love me some pizza and ice cream :p 

3. Let me just ask, how many times do you train your booty & legs a week and what are your favourite booty building exercises?
I train legs and booty every 2 days, so some weeks its 3 days, some weeks its 2 days! My favorite booty building exercises are squats, lunges, or plyo jumps. 

4. What’s the one food you have to stop yourself from eating because once you start you just don’t want to stop! And how do you beat the cravings? If you’re a lucky one who isn’t drawn to the occasional treat then I am very jealous of your tolerance!
Oh my god, HOT CHEETOS! I will eat an entire bag. Once I start, I definitely won't stop! As far as cravings, I honestly do not stop myself. I don't worry about what I eat as long as it's in moderation, and if i'm eating healthy over all and go to the gym consistently, everything is all good. But the thing about me is that I prefer salty over sweet. 

5. How do you motivate yourself to maintain a healthy lifestyle and up-keep your body?
I motivate myself to maintain a healthy lifestyle and keep up the consistent gym schedule is by seeing results. Another thing, is my Instagram followers, and the emails I get from people telling me that my gym picture I posted earlier that day got them to the gym. Nothing makes me happier than motivating people and helping others. 

6. What is your opinion on booty enhancements/implants that are becoming common nowadays?
I have extremely strong opinions on fake things in general. But I won't judge. If it makes you happy and makes you feel good, then have at it. It's just not for me. 


7. Amongst growing a booty, is it important to wear flattering styles that enhance it? We like to think our bikinis provide an enhancement to a person’s natural shape without being too cheeky of course, how did you find our bikini’s? .
Yes absolutely, It is very important to wear flattering styles. Your bikinis make it easy for that! Scrunch butt backs on bikinis are my favorite, not too much cheek but just the right amount. 

Bikini Secrets with Brigitte

As we supply bikini's all over the globe, we have bikini body babes supplying their secrets to help you keep Livin' Life in a Bikini. We chat with Brigitte Saunders (@brigxx on instagram) who is a pilates instructor and qualified personal trainer along with providing an inviting social media page to motivate everyone!

We have a couple of little questions girls want to know about your bikini body secrets:

  1.   What is your go-to snack when you are on the go?
    My current go to snack on the go is Granny Smith apples, We have them for our clients at Pilates but I seem to always be grabbing them on the go! They are great for energy
    .
  2. What is your number one fat burning exercise?Burpee's I love them, I do burpee's EVERY day! They are my go to fat burning exercise! They get the heart rate pumping!
  3. What is the one food you have a weakness for, and what is your advice towards foods that leave you wanting more?Chocolate. I am addicted, my #1 trick is not to buy it (so it's not tempting) because if it's in the house I'll eat an entire block. Of course I'll treat myself but it's always good to set yourself a limit, buy a smaller amount or a healthier alternative (dark chocolate/raw chocolate)
  4.  How do you motivate yourself to maintain a healthy lifestyle and upkeep your figure?
    I work in the industry so I'm always training/on my feet running around! I make sure I get a workout in every day even a 20 minute run/walk or a 30 minute circuit or just a Pilates class, you feel better when you are healthy & active, that itself is my motivation to keep up the lifestyle! The figure is just a bonus for all my hard work! You get out what you put in! It's hard work but it's all worth it:)
  5.  What diet’s have you tried? Any big no-no’s when it comes to choosing a “diet ” ?
    I don't believe in the term diet, I believe in lifestyle, choices, discipline, everything in moderation as long as you are exercising daily, everyone can spare 30 minutes of 24 hours to be active... Diets are temporary, everyone should focus on a long term lifestyle of healthy eating and becoming more active! It's not rocket science, you will live longer and be happier!
