Your mission, should you choose to accept it… Is to bring positive energy into your life.

No change worth claiming comes from sitting still.

Let me introduce you to…Alexis Branch

She’s a Virginia native but long time A-Town  representer with crazy ambition & a voice to match! This R&B Artist/Entertainer can stop you in your tracks, and now she’s killin’ the fitness game!  I wanted to know what has been driving this blue haired beauty.

Thanks Lex for letting me get in your head for a little bit.


QNA

What jump started you in fitness, and what was your initial goal?

I initially got into fitness because I wanted my stamina on stage to last while performing.  I had gotten a little heavy and also wanted to tighten up. My goal was to get slim down and tone up.


How did fitness change your life?
Fitness changed my life immensely…not only because I became healthier, but I moved forward and pursued my certification in personal training. Now I have an additional career path.

Now I’m able to help others achieve their fitness goals as well.

Did achieving your fitness goals help with your performances music wise? 
Absolutely! I just went solo, and the way the music industry is set up… It’s 10% talent and 90% everything else, with image being a major factor.  I am more confident on stage and proud of my body because I’ve worked extremely hard for it.  It encourages others to want to be healthy and fit, and all I’ve wanted to do was encourage people. Whether it be through fitness or music or both…to be the best version of themselves.

What is your most memorable moment involving your fitness training?

My most memorable moment involving my fitness is tough because I have a few….One would have to be my videos.  They’ve all gone viral because I do extreme stunts.  Once I gained the strength to do stunts… I started doing videos, and the love started flowing in.  I love that people are inspired and try the stunts to show me.  Strength is beautiful.

With the help from my former trainer and mentor @BodyByDemond, we built a butt from scratch! I had absolutely NO booty and now I’m curvy and loving it.  Squats and different squat/lunge variations are to thank for that.

Heavier Weights

One of my favorite exercises would have to be on the squat machine.  Instead of doing it the normal way…with my back against the machine, I turn around and face the machine and do my squats that way.

3 “Not So Common” Nutrition Tips

Hmm not so common… I don’t do cleanses. I hear everyone doing a fitness cleanse, but I read an article that shined light on how silly they actually sound.  To cleanse your body of something like alcohol or drugs makes sense, but to cleanse yourself of food is silly.  There are vital nutrients that are needed for your body in the foods that you’re “cleansing” yourself from.  That also goes to say that your liver just isn’t doing its job if you’re needing a cleanse lol.


 

How do you push yourself when you are feeling a little less than motivated?
I remind myself that I want to be…

Naked All Summer

  I want to wake up, throw on whatever I want to wear and not worry if I’m going to look right or feel comfortable in it.  If you stay ready, you’ll never have to GET ready!  If all of my clothes burned to the ground, I want to walk out the house bare naked with no worries.



What are your future goals?

For music, I’m finishing a mixtape, album and plan on touring.  Specifically overseas.  For fitness I plan on doing plenty of fitness tours and boot camps. I’m coming out with my own fitness app, workout sweat band, and fitness DVD.  I plan to be a household name!
