Between busy schedules and a hectic summer, Miranda and I haven't had much chance to get back into our regular training routine.

So good having my gym buddy back today for her first workout in the new garage gym!

The older I get, the more I appreciate that training is about more than just getting stronger. It's also about good company, catching up, sharing some laughs and making time for the people who matter.

And, of course, a little post-workout flex-off. 💪😂

You'll never be right for the wrong people.

And you shouldn't have to change who you are just to be accepted.

The same goes for fitness.

Get stronger. Build confidence. Chase your goals. But do it because you value yourself, not because you feel you're not enough.

Surround yourself with people who appreciate you for who you are, while encouraging you to keep growing.

You can be a work in progress and still like who you are.

And if you don't like candy corn, well... nobody's perfect. 😂

Mobility isn't just how far you can stretch.

It's being able to move through useful ranges of motion, with strength and control.

And in your 40s and 50s, I think it's something worth deliberately holding onto.

But I don't spend 30 minutes at the beginning of every workout doing “mobility.”

I layer it into my training.

A little dynamic mobility while I warm up.

Strength exercises through full ranges of motion.

Loaded movements that challenge me in deeper positions.

Mobility or flexibility work between sets when it makes sense.

And some dedicated work for the areas that actually need more attention.

That way I'm not choosing between getting stronger and moving better. I'm training both at the same time.

The goal isn't to become ridiculously flexible.

It's to stay strong, mobile and capable in the body I'm going to live in for the next few decades.

Want to stay strong, lean and athletic in your 40s and 50s?

Don't forget to train power.

We spend a lot of time talking about strength as we get older, and we should. But being able to produce force quickly matters too.

That's why explosive movements aren't just something I program for athletes.

Jumps. Throws. Swings. Push presses. Faster, intentional movements with the right amount of resistance.

You don't need a ton of it. You don't need to beat yourself up.

But you do need to give your body a reason to stay fast and explosive.

Because I'm not training just to hold onto muscle or look good.

I want to keep moving like an athlete for as long as I can.

Strong. Powerful. Capable.

A little Steph appreciation post.

We've had to navigate a few setbacks lately, but one thing Steph hasn't done is let them stop her from showing up.

We've adjusted intensity. We've modified movements. We've changed the plan when we've needed to.

And through all of it, she's kept going.

I think one of the things we've both gotten really good at is celebrating the small wins instead of only looking for the big result.

Because sometimes progress is simply showing up, doing what you can that day, and leaving a little better than you came in.

Steph keeps doing exactly that.

Adapt. Keep showing up. Stack the small wins.

Pretty proud of this one. ❤️

A little Sunday confession.

I struggle with self-doubt and insecurity probably more than people realize.

This year has brought a lot of change, and with that has come a lot of figuring out who I am, what matters to me, and what I want the next version of my life to look like.

I'm still working on it.

I've been incredibly lucky to have friends, family and people around me who remind me who I am when I occasionally forget.

But I'm also learning that some of that has to come from me.

Taking care of myself. Moving my body. Slowing down when I need to. Doing the things that make me feel grounded. And learning to show up for myself with the same energy I try to give to everyone else.

Because the better I take care of myself, the better I'm able to show up for the people who matter to me.

Still learning. Still growing.

And apparently Yeti decided today's mobility session was a team activity. ❤️
