We have a lot to be grateful for over here 🩵 no power still (October 10- Thursday- day 14- time is so weird rn right) but we didn’t flood when we by all accounts should have.

Even being in this quiet dark building for five minutes filled my heart up for the day- normal life feels so far away and some of it I haven’t missed at all, but here is a part of it I’m really yearning for. This community, this space, my clients, working, training, my office, the flow of regulars in and out all day like little schools of fish, my place and my people.

Can’t wait to get back in there for real real with you all. Won’t be too much longer. Y’all be safe today!

Excited to announce our first of hopefully many Saturday workshop at Biltmore Fitness!! First Saturday of August 🎉🎉 🥊 💃🏻...

Heather is a massage therapist and avid gardener so she spends a LOT of active time leaning forward and pressing down. Lots of people spend days in that same posture (sitting on a laptop, nursing, cooking in a kitchen, tending babies, other active health fields, bikers, you name it) and it can create pain and dysfunction.

Heather has worked super hard to counterbalance that in here with glute and core strength, thoracic mobility, and working her chest muscles in a lengthened position (“stretching” but with weights).

I LOVE Heather, I love her healing hand that have bailed my body out of its own s**t more than once, and I love working with other people in body helper jobs! So rewarding. All healers also need love and healing. Thank you Heather 🩵🩵

Brian refuses to wear these b***y shorts I bought him for my birthday so I’ve reclaimed them. Outfit theme: increasingly specific geography ☀️☕️

In other news I opened the gym today which meant driving here at 4:30ish and it occurred to me that this time 10 or so years ago driving around at this hour would just mean I was still out and not at home or in bed 😌 what a different world I’m living in now. I’m so glad to be here and to have made and be making a life I absolutely adore and feel proud of. If you’re the kind of person that seemingly has learned all lessons the hard head way, I see you boo 😅 there’s hope for folx like us and good morning

There are 5 specific people I wouldn’t have been able to handle this prep without. It can feel isolating and very solitary being deep into contest prep, especially when you’re coaching yourself, and I just gotta say I didn’t really do it alone bc I had a whole team of magicians riding with me keeping my mental and my body in check.

I don’t put a lot of relationship content on here bc it’s private af to me, but to my love thank you for being truly my rock. So so encouraging and supportive and knowing exactly how to fire me up and settle me down and when to do which one. Matching energy with you is one of the privileges of my life and I hope I hold you down like you do me 🥲 and thank you for the absolute dopest post-show Sunday EVER!

To Kimber thank you for helping me regulate my digestion in January and for being not only a new friend but a super creative sounding board for how to feather together my goals and values around this prep. Thank you for being the first to suggest that pulling back and resting more could be a secret ingredient here. You were 100% right. Mad respect and love.

To Danielle thank you for the ongoing dry needling support. I trust you completely and think you’re a wizard in terms of your knowledge and intuition 😮‍💨

To Heather my soul sista! You figured out instantly exactly what the crux of my systemic right side lockdown was. I am so grateful for your healing hands. You were 100% on it, gave me a very clear and efficient pathway to finding resolution, and just plain old made me feel spoiled and nurtured.

And MINA!! Omg Mina i hope the internet can stand more of me fan girling over you. You are one of the best teachers I have ever had- you knew exactly what was just the right amount to give me at every step along the way, and you made it FUN! I can’t wait to keep brainstorming about future work together bc I just want more of you in my life 🥹

We all stand on the shoulders of giants in one way or another, and here’s 5 who gave me wings for damn sure. Big love to my team! 🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵

I’m still coming back down out of outer space, but so so so full of gratitude for this amazing weekend. The first show I ever did was the where Chris and his team were largely responsible for making me, a baby to this world and first time competitor, feel so so supported. I cannot emphasize enough how these guys create a space where athletes can come together and know that every detail has been thought through- way above and beyond.

So when I saw that Chris was producing a natural show I went off! My favorite team AND a natural event! AND in Shelby, where I cut my teeth running around my grandparents farm. I knew I had to be all in. Three years offstage and the minute I saw this event I started prep. That’s how much I love working with these guys!

Also super honored to be a part of what I hope is a growing trend in the NPC- more shows where unenhanced athletes can come together and compete. As a lifelong natural athlete this is close to my heart and I am so excited to be an ambassador for this side of this sport!

Truly can’t say enough about how well run, welcoming, and warm this show was. Thank you and yall always being the party 🎉 can’t wait to do it again

Next for me? in mid-November. Time to mix it up outside this state on a big stage 😈

🩵 Reminder 🩵 It’s super cool to have big plans and goals, but there’s a lot about you that doesn’t need editing! Don’t forget that you have a right to be here exactly in the state that you’re already in, and that being content with yourself in the moment to moment of your quest for forward progress is a possibility!

Blurry treadmill photos to reflect the imperfection of real life 🥲 swipe for an unedited photo of my imperfect naked 36 year old face that I was frankly startled by but again- this is real life and I’m seeking to make friends with my truest barest self, just like you might be

Don’t @ me because I’m not coming for everyone’s most treasured glute day move!

BUTT if you feel like you’re thrusting hard and heavy and not seeing the carryover, maybe walk it back a little and see if incorporating more nuance does get you pointed in the right direction. Some exercises are sledgehammers, and others are chisels. A well rounded glute program has both and doesn’t sleep on the fine tuners.

Another post for another time about WHY heavy thrusting doesn’t do exactly what it seems like the algorithm would love you to believe- it has to do with your spine, pelvic rhythm, and compensation in other places too! Like your quads and adductors! If you can’t keep your pelvis neutral, you cannot control the movement and it’s simply too much weight. The “scooping” method of hip thrusting is a flat out no for me, and I’d never coach it.

My glutes are happy that JUST thrusting like a maniac isn’t our bread and butter anymore 💋
