Red hot!!
Adriana Leon has a cool mix of confidence and unawareness. When the winger for the Canada’s women’s soccer team enters the Academy of Lions in Toronto one very early Thursday morning, you know she’s somebody. It’s partly her long, white-blond hair, powerhouse legs that leggings can’t hide and slick Nike gear. But it’s also her calmness. Leon and teammate Sophie Schmidt are here to put journalists and bloggers through a workout similar to their own. When she’s asked to lead us through the warm-up with carioca, dynamic quad stretches, side shuffles, walking lunges and more, she doesn’t yell at us like an army sergeant or belittle us (remember we’re not professional athletes, so it could have been frustrating). Instead, she’s encouraging, proud and really, really nice. After the workout (there’s a similar one on the Nike Training Club app called Goal Getter), as we all lie on the floor stretching our quads and hamstrings, she tells us about eating gummy bears post-exercise, de-stressing before a big game and minimizing the negative voice in our heads. After that, she chatted with Glow about how to get a strong body image. – See more at: http://ift.tt/1BXMDXC.
