258. Deficit, Maintenance or Build? It’s Time to Lock TF In with Your Fitness this Fall

Life feels a little freaking heavy right now, doesn't it?? Between the changing seasons, busy schedules, social media, family responsibilities, and trying to take care of ourselves, there's A LOT going on. Instead of another episode diving deep into workouts, macros, or anything fitness related, I really just want to chat with you. Sometimes, we need a reminder that we're all navigating our own shit (and we’re not doing it alone). Lately, I've been feeling the pull to slow d...

We're officially diving deeper into lean build season, because eating more food alone isn't going to build the body you want!

If you want more muscle, shape, strength, and that “toned” look everyone is chasing, you can't spend your entire fitness journey in a calorie deficit! In today’s episode, I'm breaking down what...

Feel like your progress has stalled? The scale isn't moving, your clothes fit the same, and you’re not seeing the changes you want in the mirror. Naturally, your first thought is “Should I lower my calories?” Before you start cutting food again though, I need you to think about this instead: Are you actually training hard enough to give your body a reason to change?
