Lately, I’ve seen a lot of buzz online asking whether women (and even men) should ditch cardio and focus more on strength training—especially as we age. And as someone who has been coaching people in fitness for over 20 years, I get it. Trends come and go, but one question always remains: “Should I do […]
Let’s settle this once and for all: Your abs were not designed just for beach photos. That six-pack might turn heads, but the real power of your core goes far beyond looking good in swimwear. You learned everything you needed to know about your core before you could even walk. Babies don’t do crunches. They […]
Been glued to your desk for hours? Your glutes aren’t thrilled about it. In fact, they’ve probably clocked out—overstretched, underused, and wondering if you’ve forgotten they exist. When the glutes go offline, your pelvis tilts, your spine complains, and before you know it, you’re walking around like you’re twice your age. Meanwhile, your hip flexors are living their best (shortened) life, pulling everything forward, while your abs quietly throw in the towel from neglect. But don’t worry, your backside can bounce back.

Every fitness journey starts with a single step—or a single squat, if that’s your thing. Don’t let the post-holiday slump win. You’ve conquered challenges before, and this is just another opportunity to show yourself what you’re made of. Think of how amazing it’ll feel to look back in a few months and say, “Wow, I really crushed it!”
Forget those expensive pills, trendy “longevity teas,” and miracle fads promising eternal youth—there’s no magic potion for a longer life. You’ve seen the ads: “Reverse aging with this one superfood!” or “Boost your lifespan with our 12-step supplement stack!” Save your money (and your sanity).
