Hi Vanderfits and welcome to a very exciting video. Exactly one year ago August 27th
2017 I started working out like a
Victoria's Secret model
and since then, it is now one year later,
I have worked out like an angel for a
full year. I've uploaded more than 150
workouts to this channel. I've embraced the
Victoria's Secret diet with lots of diet
videos and I have become a model myself too
- okay this is all pretty crazy and in
this video I'm going to tell you guys my
story of how working out like a
Victoria's Secret model changed my life
so let's rewind a little bit back to
August last year I was on a holiday with
my boyfriend we first went to San
Francisco and then we went to LA and
there was this beautiful gym in the
apartment complex that we were staying
at and I walked into that gym and I did
not know what to do there were all these
machines and I thought okay the only
thing that I know is just how to run on
a treadmill, how to do a couple basic
exercises, but I didn't really like it I
was not very motivated and then my
boyfriend suggested that I would try
a Victoria's Secret workout because I
love Victoria's Secret (like branding all
over) and I love watching the fashion
show and he thought maybe you like this
He saw that I'm lying on some sort of
article where at the personal trainer of
the Victoria's Secret models shared his
knowledge and he shared the exact
workout that a Victoria's Secret models
did so I tried it out. I was in that gym
in LA for one and a half hours sweating
my ass off like it was crazy
LA heat right? and I did not know how to
do most of the exercises I was like on
my phone researching how am I supposed
to do this. I would film this whole
process and like I had to run
back to the apartment to charge my
battery in between shots because I was
filming for so long and then I uploaded
it to YouTube I thought okay this is
just another video I'm just going to
upload how I train like a Victoria's
Secret Angel and it got amazing
responses from you guys so many of you
loved it and you said that I helped you
and motivated you to work out yourself
and in that moment I decided to
completely embrace this journey and to
work out like a Victoria's Secret model
for one year and to also follow their diet,
to research more about what they did and
ever since then I've uploaded so many videos
like ab routines, legg routines and I went
from a girl who didn't like working out
(like I used to play field hockey
absolutely didn't love it) to a girl that
works out almost every single day
completely loves it and has embraced a
whole healthy model of lifestyle so
let's first start with the physical
benefits of this lifestyle which I'm
sure you guys are all super interested
in so okay -um appearance-wise
I was always very slim and I'm not
going to lie about that and say like
okay I had this huge weight loss because
that is not true
I've always followed a pretty healthy
diet or actually a very healthy diet and
I just moved around, like I walked and I
was busy, so I did not want to lose
weight and that was not my aim so that
did not happen but besides that I have
become so much stronger. Never in a
million years I thought I was able to do
a push-up and now I can do one. I am just
so strong that I am not tired at all
after for example a whole day of
shooting, like of course I'm tired
mentally but physically my body can
handle everything whereas I used to be
very tired like in my legs and just
overall my body would feel exhausted
after running or after a day of work and now
I just feel amazing. Then I am also very
flexible. I could not reach my toes at
all and I tried for the longest time
and now ever since I started working out
as Victoria's Secret model and doing the
stretch routines and doing the yoga I
can touch my toes and put my hands flat
on the floor so that is a huge
improvement and just overall I'm less
tired
I don't suffer from back pain anymore
which I used to have and the doctors would
always tell me "Sanne, go work out because
if you train your abs then your core
will improve and it will become much
stronger so that you don't have the back
problems anymore" and I was like that I
don't really like working out and now I
love it
so that brings me to the mental aspect
of it because as you might be able to tell
from the smile on my face I love working
out, it brings me in the most happiest
mood ever, I love that after workout glow
that I could get from it, I love pushing
myself to my limits and challenging
myself every single day and even if I
think that I'm not able to complete a
workout I still push through and I keep
going so I'm very proud of myself for
that and overall I'm just a much happier
person and also because of this
Victoria's Secret model lifestyle I was
able to follow my dream and one of my
biggest dreams was to become a model I
always wanted to become a model ever
since I was a little child I would dream
of it and I would always tell myself but
I'm too sure all the models are super
long and they're so tall and slender and
here am i maybe I'm not good enough and
I just
kind of brushed it off like um it's not for
me because I'm not tall enough when
somebody would come up to me and say
" Do you want to become a model, why don't
you try it out?" and then in LA I actually
went to a couple of modeling agencies. Those vlogs are actually still online in case you
want to watch it so you can go and check
it out and they actually told me that I
was perfectly fit for modeling and that
they wanted me but that I first needed
to search for a Dutch agency and if
you've never been to the Netherlands
the people are quite tall here and I thought okay I'm not going to be in an agency
that is just impossible there are so
many beautiful girls they're all so much
taller than me and I kind of put it off
I send some applications via just online
you know find the application form on
the website and it was like but it's not
gonna work out and then a couple of
months back I just thought okay now I'm
ready. I've worked out like a Victoria's
Secret model
for months. I am fit, I'm strong, I believe
in myself these models are so powerful
Candice, Romee, Sanne Vloet. I love these
girls, I'm obsessed with them. I want to
become like them and I need to sign with
a modeling agency ASAP
so I did. I sent out my applications and
I just felt in my heart this is the
right time now I'm going to get signed. I
just knew it and then it happened. I got
signed with a modeling agency and that
is all thanks to embracing this
lifestyle. That is all tanks to this
journey of working out like a Victoria's
Secret Angel for one year straight so
that was my story. I want to thank you
guys so much for leaving all your sweet
comments, for working out together with
me, for supporting me along the way, for
giving me recommendations and tips on my
workouts, for just sending me messages on
Instagram DM, for saying that I've
changed your life, for sharing your
stories. There was even this one girl who
said she lost 10 kilograms because of my workouts I'm so
happy. "I followed Sanne for like six months now
because yeah I lost 10 kilos today
actually so really exciting for me and I've
been watching your videos for motivation
so it's like really fun to finally get to meet her. I got so many messages from girls
saying that I've changed the way their
body looks, that they have abs and that
they look slender and slim because of my
real time workouts has because of my
research that I've done, reading all the
articles watching all the videos and
then creating my own real time workouts
for you guys so thank you so much you
