Leigh Hickombottom on the cover of Oxygen Magazine
I stop by the local grocery store at least 3 times a week …during my escapades, I ususally give the magazine section a quick glance. This months issue of oxygen magazine features Leigh Hickombottom, a black fitness model. As much as I like Alicia Maire it’s kinda nice to see someone else make the cover. She’s hot and it kills time while I’m waiting in line to pay for these groceries.
LEIGH TALKS TRAINING
“Right now my workouts consist of a four or five day split,” says Leigh, a busy mom of two girls and personal trainer who rotates her workouts between the gym, home and the outdoors (which she loves). She says it helps keep things varied and flexible.
HER WORKOUT ![]()
Monday:40 minutes upper body exercises followed by 20 minutes cardio
Tuesday: 40 minutes cardio and abs training
Wednesday:40 minutes lower body exercises followed by 20 minutes cardio
Friday:30 minutes high intensity cardio and abs training
EATING CLEAN
Leigh eats small meals throughout her day, including one to two protein shakes consisting of fruit, milk and protein powder. Staples in her kitchen at any given time include fish, chicken, oatmeal, eggs, brown rice, green beans, spinach, watermelon, bananas and raspberries.
HER ADDICTION
“Sushi. Salmon or yellowtail made with brown rice,” she says.













I just need you to know, that these posts you've been doing are soo spot on for me right now. These women are amazingly toned, amazingly disciplined and simply amazingly gorgeous.
I don't do protein shakes yet, but I try to eat protein with every meal. Do you recommend any nutrition blogs or books which might be interesting to look through?
Wow….I am so glad we are on the same page. I subscribe to the magazine and when it came in the mail i screamed out "YAAAAYYY". My sister looked at me like I was crazy and I had to explain to her how happy it made me to see another black model on the cover. So refreshing
it is do you work out alone or with your sister?
