hi! I'm Annie. I'm a girl who lives in "jack‑of‑all‑trades" mode: morning - Dostoevsky, afternoon - bench press, evening - twisting into a pretzel on my mat. My bag is a portal: it holds a book, a water bottle, and hair ties all at once. And yes, I often catch myself reading a book in plank pose - I call that "intellectual fitness."

The gym is my zone of power. I go there to feel like a superhero: lifting iron, checking myself in the mirror, mentally applauding. But reality is: after my second set I'm already mentally ordering pizza, and after the third I'm scanning for a spot to sit down and finish a chapter. And yes, my favorite phrase is "just one more set" - which I repeat about fifteen times
