I help fitness professionals take complex training concepts and turn them into real outcomes for cli

Things don’t get easier.

Most people just wait for things to get easy.

“I just need to get through this, and then it will get easier.”

“I’ll wait for my knee to stop aching, then I’ll start exercising.”

“Those people have it easier than me”

But that’s not really how it works.

You learn to handle HARD better.

✔️ You become more resilient the hard things you are able to get through.
✔️ You learn what you’re capable of.
✔️ You get better at dealing with discomfort, setbacks, and challenges.

The goal isn’t to make everything easy.
The goal is to become someone who handles the HARD stuff better.

The people who achieve what they want aren’t necessarily the people who have it easiest.

They’re the people who learn how to handle HARD well.

A LIST OF EXERCISES ISN’T A COACHING PROGRAM.

Knowing what exercise to do is only the beginning.

Do you know how to position yourself?

Where should you feel the movement?

What are you trying to accomplish?

What are the common mistakes?

And why does this exercise belong in your program?

These details matter.

A squat, split squat, or push-up isn’t automatically effective just because it’s on your training plan.

You need individualized cues, to know how to execute it with intent, and know why you’re doing it.

That’s the difference between checking a box and actually learning how to train.

The how and the why matter.

WHAT IS PRACTICAL IS OPTIMAL.

These days, with two kids under two, whatever fitness I can realistically fit into my day counts as good training.

Nap time is valuable. Today, that meant:

7 rounds:
• 2-minute Airdyne
• 10 push-ups
• 10 split squats
• 10 squat-to-presses

Then:
• Hopping + skipping variations
• Driveway acceleration/sprint repeats

I also try to make my lifestyle support my fitness:
🚲 Bike to the playground
👣 Keep my step count high
🏃‍♀️ Play outside
💪 Be the most active mom on the playground

But there’s an important balance.

With two young kids, cognitive and emotional stress can already be high—and sleep is not exactly optimal.

Adding a huge dose of physical stress on top of that isn’t necessarily productive. Sometimes, more training is simply more stress.

The goal is to find the amount of training that supports you—not the amount that looks best on paper.

Be flexible.
Be reasonable.
Use what you have.

What is practical is optimal.

DON’T JUST WORK ON YOUR WEAKNESSES. LEARN TO EXPLOIT YOUR STRENGTHS.

A big part of racing is knowing where you have an advantage—and where you don’t.

For me, I’ve learned I can make up a lot of ground on the uphills and downhills, but I’m probably not catching many people on a long, flat straightaway.

So I train accordingly.

⛰️ Uphill: Hill workouts to improve climbing efficiency.
⬇️ Downhill: Specific downhill training to prepare for the muscle damage.
🏃‍♀️ Flat/speed: Track workouts to improve top-end speed.

The same principle applies in the weight room.

At Reframe Performance, we identify the limitations holding you back and use targeted weight training to address them—while maximizing the qualities you already have.

Know your strengths.
Know your weaknesses.
Train both.

And on race day? Exploit your strengths.

Mass Ultra. 50- Mile & 50- K wins this season.

Last April-June, I competed in two races to get big training sessions in and to test myself in my Vermont 100 preparation. The races gave me insight into the effectiveness of my training.

The Edge Hill 50K — 1st Female + Course Record with +5,500 feet of elevation. Technical, rocky trails. Summer heat. And a course that ended up being closer to 34 miles. It was honestly one of the hardest races I’ve ever done.

Life looks different when you’re balancing training with being a parent, work, family, and all of the responsibilities that come with it. I don’t have the same amount of time—or the same training volume—that I once did.

So this past Spring-Summer training cycle was about intention over volume.

Fewer miles, but more purpose behind them.

More quality in the sessions I could fit in.
More recovery when I needed it.
And being really dialed in with the little things that make a difference when the training window is limited.

Very grateful for the people who make it possible for me to keep chasing these goals while navigating this season of life.

Very cool to get a write-up for Mass Ultra.
