Kim Kardashian Triumphs Over Adversity And Returns to Her Fitness Regimen!
In a recent Instagram Story post, Kim Kardashian shared exciting news. After facing a health-related setback, she’s back on track and ready to conquer her fitness goals.
Kim revealed, “I broke my shoulder and tore the tendon so I’ve been out of the gym a few weeks but I’m back!”
While Kim didn’t make an appearance in the video, the video featured her dedicated trainer, Melissa Alcantara, known as Fitgurlmel on social media. It’s not just a trainer-client relationship; these two have a deep connection. Kim highlighted that Melissa had also overcome a similar shoulder issue, showing their shared commitment to health and recovery.
Melissa confidently reassured the SKIMS founder, “I got you mamacita,” and together, they prepared to embark on Kim’s journey back to strength. The gym is the women’s battlefield, and they revealed what they gear up with — KIMADE, a vegan and gluten-free energy drink infused with biotin, a product Kim had a hand in creating with Alani Nutrition.
With Eve and Gwen Stefani’s upbeat hit Let Me Blow Ya Mind playing in the background, Kim expressed her excitement for the journey ahead while reaching for the energy drink. It’s clear that this triumphant return to fitness is set against a backdrop of hard-hitting determination and positive vibes.
Kim and Melissa’s partnership is a long-standing success story. They began working together in 2017, and their connection was instant. Melissa reminisced about the pivotal moment when she received a call from the Keeping Up with the Kardashians production team, offering her the opportunity to train Kim.
Over the years, their teamwork has shaped Kim’s physique and brought her closer to her goals. Melissa recalled Kim’s objectives: “She just wanted more muscle. She wanted bigger hamstrings, which accentuates the entire leg. And she wants those cut arms and abs!”
Despite her commitment to personal growth, the mother of four has faced criticism in the past regarding her body. In 2019, her appearance at the Met Gala stirred controversy due to her cinched waist. Melissa, however, stepped up to defend her client, insisting on Kim’s dedication and hard work.
Melissa reminded everyone that Kim’s success is born from her own effort, stating, “To make things clear, 1. This dress is corseted BUT 2. Kim trains her a– off 6 days a f—— week, she wakes up early af and is dedicated. 3. I paved the road for her but SHE did the work! I love compliments either way.” The trainer added, “MOST IMPORTANTLY, I don’t give a s— about your opinions on her body if you think she fake or not! I see her every morning, I see her train and I see her sweat and I see all the work she does outside of the gym and THAT is commendable!”
