The Upward Fitness Studio soup:

Into a gym, mix in:

1. A generous scoop of science-based evidence
2. Dice up some encouragement and guidance, mix in slowly and gradually
3. Pinch of sweat and heavy lifts
4. An ungodly amount of laughs and gossip
5. 200g of protein

Perfect for the colder months - best served year round.

Between computer work, stress, and the cervical disc bulge from sneezing (I truly wish that was a joke, but it's not), I've prioritized rotator cuff mobility and stability.

I've been having clients do them as well, and it seems to make a difference!

The key is to tackle these motions in more than one direction, plus they can be modified to any level, for everyone.

The best day of your life is the day when you realize you can become the person you keep waiting for - and that person cannot be found without taking action.

Come for the health benefits, stay for the community šŸ¤“

Incredibly grateful to be surrounded by amazing people, who make hard workouts fun

The scale is a data point, not the whole story.

2lbs of body weight loss during my run, but it wasn't body fat...

What gives?

The majority of the weight I lost was from sweat, glycogen store depletion, etc.

Body fat loss is slow - and requires an energy deficit over a long period of time.

Don't confuse acute bodyweight changes with actual changes in body composition

Linda and Tami have made incredible progress on their fitness journey! They continue to show up for themselves week after week, and their progress is inspiring to witness. I've had the privilege to train these two superstar ladies for the past 6 months, and I'm beyond impressed with them. There's more to a lifestyle change than just adding the gym to your life. They are a shining example of consistency and discipline! Thank you, Linda and Tami, for trusting the process and for being amazing human beings.

šŸ’Ŗ Phenomenal work!

You don't need a new workout plan or diet.

You need to stick to something long enough to discover how it affects you.

If you have not:

- Strength trained 2 - 3 times a week
- Logged your food, stayed in calorie limit, and hit protein goals (even on weekends)
- Slept adequately
- Managed stress

for more than 6 months, then you cannot say you have tried everything.

The basics and the boring will always win over anything else.

Burpee Musical Chairs! A great finisher to end our Tabata series bootcamp!

Another great fitness bootcamp complete! Onward (and Upward) to September, where we will begin a new theme of bootcamp style.

Time is the most valuable resource, and how you spend it defines everything.

Let's be honest - when you decide to start exercising or implement a healthy habit, you are substituting it for something else already in your life.

You must give up a value for a different one:

Less take-out food = stabilized energy
Less screen time = better sleep
Less alcohol/drugs = efficient recovery
Less sitting = healthier heart

The fitness industry is excellent at convincing people that a supplement will give you the body and health that you want.

But I want to be clear: the data does not lie.

If you are not:

- Getting daily movement
- Eating nutritious food
- Strength training
- Making space for what you enjoy

Then you should not be concerned about what supplement to take or if sauna is good or not.

The trick is to figure out how to fit these non-negotiables into YOUR lifestyle.

The routine that works is one that you will stick to.
