Tiny habits that help me look and feel younger at 56 — Part 4

I set small goals to keep myself motivated and challenged.

They give me something to work toward and help me stay engaged with my life.

Last weekend, I did a photo shoot. It was a personal goal that pushed me outside my comfort zone and gave me something exciting to prepare for.

I normally only do photoshoots before or after a bodybuilding contest. It was fun doing one while I’m in maintenance. It was a different look. I liked feeling curvier. 💗

Your goal doesn’t have to be huge. It could be getting stronger, trying something new, planning a trip, learning a skill, or doing something that makes you feel confident.

Small goals create momentum.

This was yesterdays leg workout. I was short on time and didn’t get to a few exercises.

Even though life gets busy, it’s SO important to we create this time for ourselves.

When I can’t get in my full workout, I focus on quality sets.

I do some type of jump training 3x week. It’s great for my bones, 🦴 it fits easily into my routine and it’s fun!

Soon this gym equipment will be moving, and heading to its new home! It’s bittersweet.✨❤️

Happy Thursday! 💪🏼

I don’t treat getting older like decline, and I don’t use age as a reason to decide what I can or can’t do. 💫

I may need more recovery and I’m smart about what I won’t do. 🎢🛼

I’m still allowed to want more strength, more energy, more adventure, more confidence, and more life.

We ALL are! ❤️❤️

I’m not trying to be 25 again. I’m focused on becoming the strongest and most capable version of myself now.

What are you not done with?

I’d love to hear your thoughts 💭

One of my new favorites on glute day! 🔥

1) I like having the non working leg on the bench, you can’t cheat. 🚫
2) Holding the DB in the opposite hand as the working leg is a game changer! 👍🏼

Because the weight is offset, the working glute has to help control the entire movement. 🔥

Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced workouts like these in my StrongHER App! ✨

Happy Labor Day! 🇺🇸

Tiny habits that help me look and feel younger at 56 — Part 2

If I had to choose one habit to prioritize, it would be strength training.

I’m not lifting because I’m trying to turn back time. I’m lifting because I want to stay strong, capable, mobile, and confident in my body.

But strength training is only part of the equation.

I also prioritize enough protein and mostly unprocessed, whole-food meals to support muscle growth, recovery, energy, and overall health.

My approach is simple:

Lift the weights💪🏼
Eat enough protein🍳
Recover well💤
Repeat🔁

You don’t need to start with heavy weights or a complicated program. Start where you are, focus on good form, and build gradually.👍🏼

Do you prioritize protein with your meals?

Monday Reminder: Don’t regret the fun you had over the weekend. ✌🏼

I ate some things I don’t normally eat, but I wouldn’t trade the memories I made with my daughter for anything.

Today, I’m not restricting, over-exercising, or trying to “make up for it.” I’m simply getting back to my normal routine.

One weekend doesn’t change your progress.

Happy Monday! 💪🏼

Tiny habits that help me look and feel younger at 56 — Part 1

The first habit is simple:

📍I get out of my comfort zone.

*Note📝 I used to be terrified of going in the ocean. And I’m a little intimidated around horses after being thrown off one.

I don’t treat getting older as a reason to act smaller, stay stuck, or stop trying new things.

Sometimes getting out of your comfort zone means doing something unfamiliar. Like, wearing the outfit, starting the routine, speaking up, or choosing the thing that makes you feel a little nervous.

You don’t need to reinvent your life overnight.

Start with one small choice that reminds you: I’m still growing.

That’s what keeps life interesting—and helps me feel confident, more youthful, and engaged at 56.

This is Part 1 of my “Tiny Habits That Help Me Look and Feel Younger” series.

More to come.

Save this as your reminder to choose growth over comfort today.

I’ve always tried to be intentional about what comes into our home. 🏠

I choose nontoxic skincare, read food labels, and we grow a lot of our own food. 🫜🥬

It only made sense to take a closer look at the cookware we use every day, too.

That’s why I switched to Caraway’s ceramic-coated cookware. I love that it’s thoughtfully designed with clean materials, offers an easy-release cooking surface so we can use less oil.

And it looks BEAUTIFUL in my kitchen! 😍

When you put so much care into growing and choosing your food, the tools you use to prepare it matter, too!

From our garden to the kitchen and finally outside by the pool, Caraway has become part of the way we cook, gather, and enjoy meals at home.❤️
