Maia thought she'd be the worst in class. Now she’s holding planks longer, getting stronger, and seeing herself improve. 🥹🩵

She hadn’t worked out in years; she worked from home, didn't move enough, and knew she needed to get out and try something. So she did. 💪

You do not need to get stronger before you come here. You come here to get stronger. 😉 And yes, we’ll modify the "weird machine" for you and even give you hands-on corrections, because if you spent 50 minutes at a boutique fitness class and no one corrected your form... did you even work out?

We’re really freaking proud of you, Maia. 🩵

If “I’m too out of shape to start” has been your reason for waiting to try one of our workouts, Maia just proved you don’t need to be.

One of the weirdest feelings is WANTING to work out and simultaneously feeling like your body has absolutely nothing to give.

Mentally, you’re there. You thought about your workout all day, you WANT to go, you have enough energy to answer emails at 10pm, scroll in bed, think about tomorrow, and mentally run through the 37 things you still need to do.

But physically, you’re stopping constantly during class, you’re sore for days, you feel like you haven’t progressed in months, and by 5:30pm, you need an energy drink just to convince your body to do what your brain has wanted all day.🫠 

So naturally, you assume you need more caffeine, more workouts (or a different workout), extra rest days, and cutting out carbs. 

If you regularly feel depleted when you’re mentally you’re ready to go, consider this: feeling awake doesn’t mean your body is properly fueled or recovered.

Stress, sleep, training load, caffeine, medications, and PLENTY of other individual factors can contribute to this feeling, and nutrition can be one of them.

If what you’re eating isn’t matching what you’re asking your body to DO, it makes sense that you still mentally want to keep going while physically feeling like there’s nothing left in the tank (and no, the answer is not always “eat more protein.”)

This is exactly where the internet makes nutrition SO. DAMN. CONFUSING. Eat more, eat less. Cut carbs, eat carbs. Fast, don’t fast. 🙄

If you’ve already tried caffeine, more sleep, more rest, different workouts, “pushing through,” and whatever nutrition rule your algorithm served you this week… it’s time to stop assuming you need another hack and actually look at how YOU are fueling.

Nutrition may not be the entire puzzle. Movement, sleep, stress, hydration, health, and other individual factors matter too.

But if you’ve tried “everything” and keep ending up in the same place, why would you keep repeating the same pattern?

How many times have you built the plan in your head for THIS to finally be the week that you:

👉 Hit all 4 workouts
👉 Hit your water intake goal
👉 Hit your protein and fiber goals
👉 Go to bed “on time”

Then a few weeks go by, your energy is still tanked, your body isn’t responding the way you expected, and you assume you need another nutrition tip, someone else’s meal plan, or yet another random hack.

The problem is you keep chasing MORE tips without even knowing whether the things you’re focusing on make sense for YOU.

Even the habits in this reel need context. How much water you need depends on your activity level, environment, and individual needs. And nutrition gets even more individual.

There is no one-size-fits-all answer we can give you in an Instagram caption, and that’s kind of the point. If saving more hacks and building another plan in your head was going to solve this, wouldn’t it have worked by now?

You can spend another 6 months changing your protein goal, trying another meal plan, and wondering what the hell you’re missing.

ORRRR you can stop guessing and have someone look at YOU and YOUR specific situation.

That’s why we now have a Registered Dietitian at Core (LP). 🙌🥳

If you’re doing a LOT of “healthy” things and still wondering why your energy is tanked, or your body isn’t responding the way you expected, let’s look at it.

While you were scrolling, someone was accomplishing the exact thing you keep saying you want, with the same conditions you keep saying are stopping you. 

Nobody in this post had the perfect conditions for consistency. They had full-time jobs, college, half-marathon training, everything else that needed to get done, hip pain, wrist pain, lower back issues, and full lives outside the studio. 

And they still hit 100 classes and 250 classes because they stopped requiring life to cooperate before they took care of themselves. 

If your plan is “I’ll become consistent when work slows down,” “I’ll start when my schedule is less insane,” or “I’ll commit when I know I can actually stick with it,” respectfully... when exactly is that happening?

Your schedule will probably stay full; your kids will have practices, games, appointments, and birthday parties. Something will ALWAYS make working out inconvenient.

The 100 and 250 are what you see. That decision to keep showing up, made over and over again, is what you didn’t.
And if you’re thinking, “I want to become someone who does that,” good. Come here. 😉🩵

We’re going to expect you to show up. We’ll notice when you don’t, and we’re going to keep coaching you until taking care of yourself stops being the first thing you negotiate away when life gets busy.

You don’t have to already be radically consistent to join Core (LP), but we’re ABSOLUTELY going to expect you to practice it here.

You can start putting in the reps to become that person now, or spend another few months waiting for conditions that aren’t coming. If “I’ll start when life is less busy” was going to work, it would’ve worked by now.

If you’re ready to try something different, comment CONSISTENT and we’ll send you the link to book your New Member Consult.

If you’re a runner, running more isn’t the only way to become a stronger runner.

Running asks your body to repeat the same pattern over and over (and over) again, so if you want to optimize your training as a runner, strength training should prepare your body for everything that pattern requires:

✅ Skating to strengthen your quads, glutes (especially outer glutes to protect hips and knees from all the forward motion of running), hamstrings, and core stability 
✅ Lunges for strength + mobility through the hips and legs, which is directly related to increased speed
✅ Saw for core stability, posture, and diaphragm (your breathing), to support appropriate power transfer
✅ Oblique sweeps for trunk stability, hip mobility, and outer glute strength

But please don’t take this as “every runner needs these exact four exercises.” Your strength training should depend on how you run, what you’re training for, your injury/fitness history, your strengths, and your training gaps.

If you’re training for a race and want to know what Pilates-inspired strength-training work makes sense alongside the miles you are running, that’s what a New Member Consultation is for.

Come tell us what you’re training for. We’ll help you figure out what your training is missing. Comment CONSULT, and we’ll send you the link to book yours.

If you were sitting across from us and said, “I eat mostly healthy… but I’m not losing weight. What am I doing wrong?” this is what we’d say to you next (and we would DEFINITELY NOT tell you to restrict your diet because respectfully, f*ck that.)

We’re not Registered Dietitians, so there’s a point where our answer is going to be: let’s get someone who is qualified to look deeper at this with you.

And now we can! 🥳

Amelia, our Registered Dietitian, is officially offering 1:1 Nutrition Coaching at Core (LP). So if your “I eat mostly healthy, but…” needs more than a conversation with your coach, we know exactly who you should talk to.

You take getting results seriously. So do we. Which is exactly why we couldn’t be more excited to officially welcome Amelia, our Registered Dietitian, to Core (LP). 🥳🩵

We can coach the hell out of your workouts. But what you do outside the studio matters too, and nutrition is a HUGE piece of that conversation.

If you’ve ever Googled a nutrition question and somehow walked away MORE confused, this is for you.

So for Amelia’s first IG Live, we put her on the spot with some of the nutrition questions our members ask us ALL. THE. TIME. Like:

👉 If you had to choose, should you fuel before or after your workout?
👉 What are good sources of protein + carbs pre/post class?
👉 Are carbs making you gain fat?
👉 Why are you sometimes not hungry after a long run?
👉 What’s actually going on with body changes during menopause?
👉 Does eating after 8pm actually cause weight gain?
👉 Do you need collagen?
👉 “I’m eating healthy, but my body stopped changing. What am I doing wrong?

Watch the replay to meet Amelia + get her take on some of your biggest nutrition questions.

Then, when you’re ready to stop piecing together your nutrition from random advice online, comment NUTRITION and we’ll send you the link to book a 1:1 Nutrition Consultation with her.
