đź’Ą7 uncomfortable truths I wish more women were told.
I’m probably going to p**s a few people off with this one.
Good.
Because after years of working with women I'm not here to sugar coat or mislead you with fluff.
I'm here to guide you towards your dream body.
So let's dive in.
🔥1. Stop stretching the sh!🔥t out of a body that already feels unstable.
Feeling tight does NOT automatically mean you need more flexibility.
I see this constantly.
Women stretching their hips, hamstrings and backs every single day because something feels tight.
Meanwhile their body is practically begging them for strength and control. Sometimes that tension is there for a reason.
Your body isn’t tightening up for no reason.
🔥2. Your posture probably isn’t the problem you’ve been convinced it is.
Tuck, pull, brace, lift, squeeze and look perfect like this text book model, all while trying to coordinate your weekly grocery shop.... yea no thanks!
Your body was designed to MOVE through different positions.
I’m far more interested in what your body can control rather than the general idea of “perfect posture.”
🔥3. If your core only feels strong when you’re bracing the hell out of it, I don’t consider that a strong core.
Your core needs to respond to breathing.
Load.
Rotation.
Flexion.
Extension.
Walking.
Life.
You shouldn’t have to walk around consciously gripping your stomach all day to feel supported.
And this is where a lot of women realise they don't actually need another workout plan.
They need someone to look at how THEIR body is moving and figure out what the hell is actually going on.
That’s a huge part of what I do with my private clients.
🔥4. Stop being terrified of bending your spine.
Your back is not a piece of glass.
I’ve watched women become more afraid of their bodies because they’ve consumed years of content telling them everything they’re doing is “wrong.”
Your knees went over your toes.
Your back rounded.
Your pelvis tilted.
Your ribs flared.
Not all of this is wrong.
Some bodies work better with a bit of a flare or a tilt.
There are many nuances to each individual body.
We need less generalisation and more personalisation!
🔥5. Your glutes might not need another activation exercise.
If you’ve been clamshelling your way through the last five years and still “can’t feel your glutes”…
Maybe we need to stop blaming your glutes.
Your feet, pelvis, spine, ribcage and the way you’re loading the exercise all influence what you feel.
The body works as a system, so lets train it like one ;)
🔥6. More exercises aren't necessarily going to get you a better result.
This one took me years of coaching to appreciate.
Sometimes I remove exercises or make things simpler.
Sometimes the breakthrough comes from changing ONE small thing and actually giving the body time to adapt.
More isn't always better.
Better is better.
🔥7. Eventually you have to stop trying to FIX your body and start building it.
This is the big one.
You can spend years chasing every tight muscle, clicking joint, posture asymmetry and little thing that doesn't look perfectly symmetrical.
Or…
You can build a body that's strong enough to handle being human.
Because THAT is the goal.
Not perfect posture.
Not perfect alignment.
Not never feeling an ache again.
A strong confident body you trust.
And yes, getting there can be uncomfortable.
You might have to stop doing some of the things you've believed were helping you for years.
You might need to get stronger or move in ways you've been avoiding.
You might need to stop treating your body like something that's constantly broken.
My work isn't for the woman looking for another quick fix.
It's for the woman who's ready to understand her body, build the foundations she's missing and actually get strong.
If that's you, message me STRONG to chat about how we can create the perfect plan for you.
Here's to building a body strong enough for life and your dreams ❤
