Biography

Phillips goes by the username @ooohbabybeast on Instagram. To be honest, even we could not have come up with a more appropriate handle for her. 

According to Kayli, she is a German, Irish, and Filipino mix. She seems to have picked the best traits from each bloodline. Her fans could not have asked for more.

However, Kayli says gaining success was not easy. She credits her hard work and dedication to where she is today.

Kayli Ann Phillips has amassed a giant following on Instagram. She has done it by consistently uploading photos and videos, showing off her hourglass physique. 

The CrossFit athlete has come to be known for her intense training routines, which she routinely shares with her followers. She combines her hardcore training posts with inspirational quotes, a combination that keeps her fans coming back for more. 

Entering CrossFit

Kayli Ann Phillips started her CrossFit journey in 2010. Since then, she has worked as a fitness trainer and diet adviser at Renaissance Periodization, a brand promoter, and a model for athletic clothing brands Doyoueven and Women’s Best. 

Phillips’ washboard abs, chiseled guns, and tree trunk legs can put many of her male CrossFit counterparts to shame. On her Instagram profile, she can be seen lifting heavy weights and performing hard ab exercises with relative ease. 

Kayli has one of the best physiques in the fitness industry, and she knows it. She routinely treats her fans with her bikini-clad photos. 

Phillips is proof that all your goals (fitness, personal, and professional) are achievable as long as you are willing to take responsibility and work on them. The Instagram star inspires people to take control and lead healthier lives.

Training

Kayli Ann Phillips has been a lone wolf throughout her fitness journey. Unlike most fitness stars, she has never taken the help of professional coaches in transforming her physique. 

Phillips developed her body by learning through experience. She spent a lot of time understanding what works for her and what does not. Kayli then devised a personalized training and diet program that doubled down on her strengths.

Training at Home

Another thing that distinguishes Kayli from other internet fitness celebrities is that she does not train at a gym. She works out at home in her make-shift gym in her backyard. 

Kayli Ann Phillips’ bare-bone home gym includes kettlebells, dumbbells, barbells, a pull-up bar, and a squat rack. Training at home gives Kayli the freedom and flexibility to train at a time she finds suitable. 

According to her, working out at a commercial gym can add friction to an individual’s fitness lifestyle as they then have to set aside a specific time every day to travel to the gym and sign-up for a gym membership. 

This should come as a wake-up call for people who think they can never transform their physique because they do not have the time to go to a gym.

Some of Kayli’s favorite exercises include pull-up, L-sit up, clean & jerk, deadlift, and squat.

Nutrition

A quick scroll through Phillips’ Instagram feed is enough to tell you her shredded physique is not the result of eating junk food or simply winging it while hoping for the best. She follows a calculated nutrition program to get the best results. 

Kayli Ann Phillips’ intense workouts require her to consume a nutrient-dense whole food diet to meet her daily macronutrient needs. For her daily protein needs, she prefers lean meats such as chicken and turkey. 

The Instagram model also consumes whey protein post-workout to improve her recovery process and promote muscle growth. 

On the other hand, when it comes to carbohydrates, Kayli uses the carb back-loading technique. The idea behind carb backloading is simple: Eat very few carbs at breakfast and lunch and eat more carbs at dinner after a workout. This diet theoretically capitalizes on your insulin production and insulin sensitivity cycles.

In layman terms – Eating carbs later in the day makes your body store them in the form of glycogen, as opposed to in the morning when they will be stored as fat. 

Glycogen is your body’s first preference to be burnt as fuel. This results in a lower percentage of glycogen being stored as body fat. Using this simple technique, Kayli successfully maintains her shredded physique with a very low body fat percentage throughout the year.
