If you’re wondering what she looks for in a guy, it’s not just a great body. “The number one quality I like in a guy is a good sense of humor! If you can make me laugh, I’m in! I also like a guy who is driven, kind and has a dope swag in terms of their style and vibe,” she said.

“I started a training routine because I was super thin,” Lee said, “I was really skinny and scrawny, and I hated it. In high school, I weighed 98 pounds and I was always really self-conscious about it. So around college, my mom was really into fitness and working out so she kind of showed me the basics and got me comfortable in a gym. Then, I started working with weights, building up a little bit of muscle, eating more protein, and I started to gain a little bit of weight and felt much more confident.”

The sexy star likes fit guys, but you don’t need a six-pack to impress her. “My favorite body part on a guy is definitely the arms! Nice arms make you feel like you are with a real man,” Lee said, “I also think nice calves on guys are sexy. I don’t care for a crazy six-pack though, I actually prefer a little dad-bod action.”

Like anyone else, this fitness star has certain things that challenge her the most. “I would say when I go up in weight it’s the most challenging,” Lee said, “I started out skinny, so my body type is not necessarily super muscular and it’s a challenge for me to build muscle. Any time I add heavier weight, it’s challenging.”

The stunner has a weekly routine that consists of not one, but three leg and glute days.”I used to do [lower body] twice a week, but I just recently started doing it three times a week,” the trainer shared, “It usually consists of one heavy day, where I’ll do squats, leg presses, and walking lunges holding weights or curtsy lunges with a weighted bar. Then I’ll do one lighter day, where it’s more of a cardio workout like step-ups, side-to-side steps and jumping, such as jumping lunges and frog jumps or stairs.”

Her favorite move is a classic that never fails. “[My favorite is] definitely walking lunges,” she shared, “I always feel them the next day, I feel them while I’m doing them and you definitely see the results.”

“[Working out] was a way to build confidence, get stronger and be healthier,” the sexy Instagram celeb said, “for me, it was never about losing weight. It was always about being stronger.”

Anyone who spends this much time in the gym is bound to have a few pet peeves. I think we can all relate to Amanda’s biggest one.”It annoys me when I see a guy standing around and talking at the gym. Gyms are for working out, not social hour!”

Anyone can benefit from the trainer’s advice about key exercises for legs and glutes.”Squats are very standard and they’re very important for building not only the glutes, but also the legs and the core,” she explained, “lunges, definitely, and Romanian deadlift is really important. Weighted deadlift is one of my favorites for hamstrings, and building hamstrings is definitely necessary.”

Everyone has something that serves as motivation. Amanda’s favorite motivational quote:”You only regret the workouts you didn’t do.’ It’s pretty cliché, but it’s so true because you never say to yourself, ‘I wish I didn’t do that workout.’ But there are many times when you’re like, ‘I wish I would’ve worked out today.”

Amanda feels that a mind-body connection is a huge part of getting the most out of a workout.”The most important thing to me, if you don’t do anything else,” she said, “is making sure that you use your mind while you’re working out so that you really focus on the muscle. Even if you’re not doing as intense of a workout as somebody else or as heavy weight as somebody else but you are really focused on the muscle and connecting your mind to your body, you’re going to see better results than someone who is doing a harder workout or who might be doing more weight but doesn’t have that mind-body connection.”Photo Credit: instagram.com/amandaeliselee
