Fit Societe

I wish it were socially acceptable to tell some of my clients that their RPE 10 might actually be an RPE 4, because whenever I tell them to push 10 more reps out, THEY CAN😪 YOU ARE MUCH STRONGER THAN YOU THINK!!!!

POV someone tries talking to me during my cardio session... GIMME 10... GIVE ME TEN!!!

Your Body Will Become a Priority... By Choice or By Consequence.
That quote from hits hard.

"Your body is going to become a priority whether that is by choice or consequence."

You can invest in your health now...

Or you'll be forced to later.

As we age, one of the biggest predictors of independence isn't luck.

It's strength.

Can you safely:
✔️ Stand up from a chair?
✔️ Climb stairs?
✔️ Carry groceries?
✔️ Catch yourself if you trip?
✔️ Get up from the floor?

Strength training, balance work, mobility, flexibility, and cardiovascular fitness all play a role in maintaining independence as we age.

That's exactly why Fit Societe offers Active Aging classes.

We help adults build the strength and confidence they need to keep doing the things they love—not just today, but decades from now.

The best time to prepare for aging is before you need to.

Future you will thank you.

What I hear when my coach talks to me after I work a 9-hour shift 🥴

if you don't like strength training... well.. you should ⬇️

TRY AGAIN

Strength training is the best way to have longevity in your life. As you get older, the ability to increase your muscle mass becomes increasingly harder and harder. So no matter what you do for exercise, you should incorporate some type of strength training.

Front Squats Feel Better After This Core Exercise 💥
Want your front squats to feel stronger and more stable?

Try adding a Pallof Press to your warm-up.

Why?

The Pallof Press teaches your core to resist rotation, creating stability through your trunk before you load a heavy barbell.

A more stable core means:
✅ Better force transfer
✅ Improved posture
✅ More control under the bar
✅ Less energy leaking during heavy lifts

How to perform it:

✔️ Attach a resistance band or cable at chest height.
✔️ Stand sideways to the anchor point.
✔️ Hold the handle at your chest.
✔️ Press your hands straight out while resisting the band's pull.
✔️ Keep your ribs down, core engaged, and hips square.
✔️ Slowly return and repeat.

Think of it as waking up your core before asking it to support a heavy squat.

Sometimes the best way to lift more isn't lifting more—it's preparing better.

Whenever I look at the workout of the day for our class (always thinking it is going to be a chill class), it is DEF NOT CHILL 😭

Who wrote that?! Literally, WHO WROTE THAT?

I did ;D

Yes, our coaches listen when you say you want a summer body; we sure are going to give you a program that reflects it ;)

What Is BMR? 🔥 (And Why It Matters)
Ever wonder how many calories your body burns doing... absolutely nothing?

That's your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR).

BMR is the amount of energy your body needs each day just to keep you alive.

We're talking about:
❤️ Your heartbeat
🫁 Breathing
🧠 Brain function
🌡️ Body temperature
🫀 Organ function

It doesn't include walking, working out, or even getting out of bed.

Why does this matter?

Because your BMR is the starting point for understanding your overall calorie needs.

When combined with your daily activity, it helps determine your Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE), which is what you use to guide fat loss, muscle gain, or maintenance.

While you can't dramatically change your BMR overnight, building muscle through strength training can increase the amount of calories your body burns over time.

Understanding your metabolism helps you make smarter nutrition decisions—not just eat less.

Knowledge beats guessing every time.
