The Perfect Workout

05/12/2026

Well, look who's on the cover of the Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition... none other than The Perfect Workout member (and super famous comedian) Tiffany Haddish (!!!).

Here she is on the Today Show this morning talking about how she got in shape for the SI cover shoot with The Perfect Workout.

"Very heavy weights in slow motion—and it's only 20 minutes. And you're done for the day. And I'm gonna tell you, the next day, 'Damn! My arms, my back, my legs, my toes!' Everything's hurting. But it transforms your body so fast."

Well, to be fair, there's probably not just ONE thing that leads to forever-enduring happiness.

But! According to psychologist Daniel Gilbert, we’re pretty bad at predicting what will make us happy—and even worse at noticing when we are happy.

So, what can we do?

Here's the one big thing...

✨ Train your brain to appreciate the present, rather than waiting for some future milestone. ✨

Gratitude, savoring, and reflection are proven tools to boost long-term satisfaction.

“Happiness is not found in the things we get—but in how we think about the things we already have," writes Dr. Gilbert.

That's good food for thought (pun intended) as we head into this holiday weekend.

Results matter. And so do expectations.

At FastFit, we guarantee you'll be stronger within the first 6-8 weeks.

But we also focus on long-term results. Because strength training isn't about short-term changes. It's for life. It's for longevity.

So, even if you don't see immediate results...

Keep. Showing. Up.

Because not strength training is NOT an option.

Your muscles are doing something right now that's protecting your brain. (Even if you're just sitting there.) 💪

Muscle tissue is your body's largest site of glucose disposal. Translation? Your muscles are constantly pulling sugar out of your bloodstream and using it for energy.

Here's what changes after 40: women naturally lose 3-8% of their muscle mass per decade. Less muscle means your body has less capacity to manage blood sugar effectively, which affects both diabetes risk and brain health.

The good news? You have more control than you think. Strength training doesn't just build muscle—it dramatically improves how your body processes glucose. Studies show 21-25% improvement in insulin sensitivity from just 2x/week training.

More muscle = better metabolic health = a protected brain.

It's never too late to start building strength. Learn how 20 minutes twice a week makes a difference in this new article posted at FastFit. Link in comments.

It’s a common question. But the idea that strength training will make women look like a bodybuilder is a myth. Even young men with 10x the circulating testosterone of women find it hard to bulk up.

𝙃𝙚𝙧𝙚’𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙩𝙧𝙪𝙩𝙝. Developing muscle is not as easy as it seems.

Which means that instead of worrying about waking up with muscles rippling through your skin, you can focus on the effectiveness of strategic, compound exercises to achieve your fitness goals—without unwanted muscle growth.

We debunk this and other fitness myths in this week’s podcast episode (links👇). It’s about helping you clarify how your body works—and how an effective strength training program can work 𝘧𝘰𝘳 your body.

In Episode 27, we cover…

💪 Why gaining muscle isn't as easy as you think, even for those trying hard
🏋🏼 How young, testosterone-heavy males still struggle to bulk up
🤔 The reality behind women's strength training and the misconceptions about looking "too muscular"
📉 How stopping strength training for a couple of weeks can reverse any unwanted muscle growth
🎯 The effectiveness of compound movements in achieving a balanced, full-body workout
