I am telling you that nothing, no thing has ever tasted better than food on cheat day.

0:08.3

How good the food tastes on cheat day is worth how boring my diet is the other six days of the week.

0:16.0

Now, I know what you're wondering.

0:18.6

Rachel, nobody asked you about nutrition. Ashley asked you about an arm workout.

0:23.8

Yes, but we got to be real. Because all of the people that you see on social media who are like,

0:29.6

do this workout. Do this. Do that. Six days a week and you'll have arms like mine. No, girl,

0:37.3

you can't have arms like that unless
