Get Stronger with Julia

You’re about to start a new practice… and already your mind is wandering to the latest sportswear, a fancy massage gun, or some cool sauna membership. 
 
Don’t forget why you started in the first place! Wasn’t it just to feel better, move better, and be a bit happier?  
 
Don’t let your heart get all tangled up in the little extras. If it starts feeling too complicated, try putting all the tools away for a while.  
 
Go back to zero and remember how it began. 
(inspired by Zen Wisdom)

Imagine arriving at your holiday accommodation only to discover there’s no iron! From cruises and wilderness trips to glamping sites and even some Airbnbs, many places don’t provide one. I’ve been in that exact situation.🥲

But you know me — I’m always researching and hunting for the best cutting-edge solutions. 🤔

Recently, I bought the Nesugar portable steamer. It’s incredibly lightweight at just 370g, offers two steam modes, and is perfect for worldwide travel with its universal voltage compatibility. ✅

The sleek design, premium feel (it reminds me of a Dyson hairdryer), and included storage bag make it feel like a high-end gadget. Best of all, it works just as well at home as it does on the road. 👌

If you travel often, you need this in your bag!!!❤️

⁣You may think a 75 kg deadlift totaling 12 reps (4 reps x 3 sets) is nothing to brag about, but for me it’s a quiet win and a reminder to stay patient with my training.⠀
⠀
I started at 60 kg, moving slowly through 2–6 reps for 3 sets, and honestly, it felt humbling. The thing I fear most is having to stop lifting because of an injury, so I chose to respect the process instead of my ego.⠀
⠀
For me, progressive overload means starting light, building solid reps and confidence, then nudging the weight up and letting the reps drop before I climb them back up again—like finally hitting those clean 4 reps x 3 sets (12 reps total) at 75 kg after months of steady increments. Some weeks feel painfully slow, but I’d rather be the person still lifting in 10 years than the one who rushed and had to quit.⠀
⠀
If you’re in a “small numbers” season too, this is your reminder: slow progress 📈 is still progress, and your future self will thank you 🤗 for training with patience instead of pride.

⁣Oh no, not another post about building habits, discipline in your fitness routine, and motivational quotes to crush that gym goal.⠀
⠀
What if I told you to relax? The only way to stick to a new habit is finding your ‘aha’ reason—a personal turning point that shifts everything. Maybe it’s not being there for your grandkids’ big day if you skip cardio, or worrying about mobility at 60 without lifting weights. If you ease up on night snacking, that dream trip stays within reach. ⠀
⠀
I don’t know your turning point🚀 yet, but it has to feel real enough to pivot your life. Because if you’re truly comfortable where you are, new habits just won’t take root.⠀

⁣Is your ‘perfect’ life secretly holding you back? ⠀
⠀
Grateful for my rhythm: consistent sleep, home-cooked nourishing meals, family chats that fill the soul, a job helping others thrive in health, and space for hobbies + growth. Is this ‘too comfortable’? Nah—it’s the launchpad. ⠀
⠀
Still searching for that next spark? Start here: build the base, then stretch. Who’s with me in 2026? 💪✨

What a time to be alive! Protein takes center stage at every meal, target 1.2-1.6g per kg body weight! Give full-fat dairy a thumbs up, refined carbs a big no; olive oil is a staple, and junk food is a hard pass!

⁣Summer is here, and it’s sparking my creativity! I’m back to experimenting with different flours—this time, lupin flour. With its fluffy texture and beautiful yellow color, it bakes perfectly. Here’s my recipe for 5 large muffins:⠀
⠀
Ingredients (for 5 large muffins)⠀
Dry ingredients:⠀
• 112g lupin flour⠀
• 60g almond flour⠀
• 1 tsp gluten-free baking powder⠀
• ½ tsp baking soda⠀
• ¼ tsp salt⠀
• 50g allulose⠀
Wet ingredients:⠀
• 4 medium eggs (about 54g each; noted as ~650g per dozen)⠀
• 200g kumquat purée (or substitute with any mashed berries)⠀
• ¼ cup yogurt (I used kefir)⠀
• ¼ cup melted butter or coconut oil⠀
• 1 tsp vanilla essence⠀
⠀
Instructions:⠀
1. Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Line or grease a muffin tin for 5 large muffins.⠀
2. Whisk together the dry ingredients in a bowl.⠀
3. In another bowl, beat the eggs, then mix in the kumquat purée, yogurt, melted butter/oil, and vanilla.⠀
4. Combine wet and dry ingredients until just mixed (don’t overmix for fluffier results).⠀
5. Divide batter evenly into the muffin tin.⠀
6. Bake for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean and tops are golden.⠀
⠀
⠀
These should turn out moist, protein-packed, and low-carb thanks to the lupin flour. Enjoy!⠀🧁🤗
