Pauline Nordin wants to kick your butt, and we're going to help her do it.
Nordin, a native of Sweden who lives in Los Angeles, is the creator of Fighter Diet, a website focused on fitness and nutrition -- and through which she sells e-books, supplements and her workout DVD "The Butt Bible." She's a former bodybuilder and once trained the winner on a Scandinavian version of "The Biggest Loser."
She sweats like it's her job — because it is. And soon, Nordin will be a regular contributor here on PT365, where we'll host exclusive instructional videos tailored to the unique needs of our military audience. To that end, you're encouraged to submit any and all fitness questions or topics (keep it clean, please) you'd like Pauline to address . Our goal is to cover fitness themes and trends relevant to soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines and Coast Guardsmen — men and women alike.
We have several fitness topics in mind, but we want to hear from you, too. What are your goals? What's holding you back? Do you want to get stronger? Faster? Leaner? Whether you consistently max your PT test or want to get back into shape after a hiatus from the gym, we're here to help you. Send your questions to pt365@militarytimes.com — and check back soon for our first video.
More about the host: Pauline is 30 years old and stands 5 feet 2 inches tall. She weighs 121 pounds — those biceps measure "12 and a half inches cold," she told Marine Corps Times last year — and her top dead-lift weight is 265.
When it comes to nutrition, she's BIG into veggies. In fact, Pauline eats 7 pounds worth every day between lunch and dinner. It's the easiest way to stay full on relatively few calories, she says.
Last year, she was the subject of a controversial cover story in Marine Corps Times.
Here's a look at Pauline in action:
