Huge congratulations to Bikini athlete for an incredible showing this past weekend at the Utah Cup!

She placed 3rd in Novice Bikini and 4th in Open Bikini. Her placings are a reflection of her hard work, discipline, and consistency she’s brought every single day. I’m incredibly proud of the effort she put in during prep, but even more proud of the work she did in the off-season before prep even began. That’s where the real progress was built.

Since her last show, Mackenzie has made some serious improvements—bringing up her glutes and shoulders and stepping on stage with a noticeably stronger, more balanced physique.

I’m so proud of you Mackenzie and I’m excited to see what we continue to build from here. The best is still ahead!

Peak week confession…

After 13 years of competing, this part of prep still makes me emotional.

One week out from the Charlotte Pro — my first show of the year.

After more preps than I can count, you would think it would start to feel routine.

But it never does.

Because every prep is different.

Different stressors.
Different life circumstances.
Different hormones.
Different challenges.

Every prep I ask the same thing of my body:

Let me be healthy through out prep and bring a better package to the stage than before.

Then peak week arrives…
and the emotions hit.

The exhaustion.
The sacrifices.
The discipline.
The gratitude.

And somehow after 13 years, I’m looking in the mirror one week out thinking…

This might be my favorite look to date.

I’m grateful for a body that not only performs — but excels.
Grateful for the friends and family who support me.
Grateful for a coach who pushes me to grow every single prep.

Peak week is here.

And I cannot wait to step on stage again.

Charlotte Pro… let’s do this.

Trouble growing your glutes? 🍑

One thing that changed my glute development the most was adding more single-leg movements.

Single-leg work exposes imbalances, improves glute activation, and forces each side to work equally. That’s when my glutes started growing and getting stronger.

If one side feels weaker, that’s normal. That’s exactly why these movements work.

Here’s a glute-focused leg day I ran yesterday at the ultimate glute growing gym ⬇️

Glute Day Workout

1️⃣ Smith Machine Reverse Lunges
Warm-up: 1×15
Working sets: 3×12–15 each leg

2️⃣ Glute-Focused Back Squats
4×15
Focus on pushing hips back and driving through heels.

3️⃣ Single-Leg B-Stance RDLs
4×15
Great for fixing glute imbalances.

4️⃣ Romanian Deadlifts(not shown)
3–4×10–12
Controlled stretch on the glutes.

5️⃣ Hip Thrusts
4 sets: 15 / 12 / 10 / 8
Increase weight each set.

6️⃣ Bench Cable Kickbacks
3×15 each leg

7️⃣ Abduction Machine (not shown)
3×20 for a glute burnout.

If your goal is bigger, stronger glutes, start adding more unilateral work.

Save this workout for your next glute day. Let me know if your goal is bigger, stronger glutes!

Unpopular opinion:
Being over 40 isn’t the problem. Your excuses are. 🔥

I hear it every single day.

Standing in grocery lines.
While shopping.
At social events.

Women telling me:

“I’m in my 40’s, 50’s 60’s”.
“It’s my hormones.”
“I’m too old now.”

And honestly? I’m done hearing it.

Age is NOT the reason you’re out of shape. Your habits are.

Somewhere along the way society convinced women that once you hit 40 or menopause… your health just declines and that’s “normal.”

No.

What’s normal is getting comfortable.

Comfortable with habits.
Comfortable with excuses.
Comfortable with not holding yourself accountable.

Because changing your lifestyle requires something many people avoid:

Effort.

Here’s the truth most people don’t want to hear:

Being healthy and in shape is not complicated.

It just requires consistency and commitment.

When people ask my age and I tell them I’m 50, they’re shocked.

But the truth?

This is the best I’ve ever looked and felt in my entire life.

Age didn’t slow me down.

My mindset leveled up.

If you’re starting your fitness journey, keep it simple:

✔️ Walk 10,000+ steps daily
✔️ Prioritize protein at every meal
✔️ Eat clean carbs + healthy fats
✔️ Drink more water (stop drinking your calories)
✔️ Lift weights — you won’t get bulky, that’s a myth
✔️ Build muscle (muscle = longevity)
✔️ Prioritize sleep
✔️ Be consistent

Because here’s the reality:

Nothing changes with inconsistency.

But everything changes when you commit to yourself.

Age doesn’t slow you down.

Your mindset does.

So the real question is:

Are you ready to stop making excuses?

👇 Comment “NO EXCUSES” if you’re choosing discipline over comfort.

Average is NOT in our DNA.

Women who live the fitness lifestyle don’t fit into ordinary lives.

We don’t crave easy workouts, comfortable routines, or “just enough.”

We crave strength. Discipline. Progress.

We’re not here to simply “get in shape.” We’re here to build powerful bodies, unshakable minds, and a life that feels electric.

Early mornings. Heavy lifts. Sweat. Growth. Showing up when motivation is gone.

We’re not chasing average.
We’re chasing who we’re capable of becoming.

And if it feels intense…
that’s because real transformation always is.

3 weeks out and eating 300+ carbs a day.

Yeah… some preps don’t look like what most people think.

Today’s check-in with coach and we’re officially just over 3 weeks out from the Charlotte Pro.

Woke up feeling a little flat and small this morning, but honestly this prep has been the most confident I’ve felt heading into a show.

Usually around this point in prep is when the doubts start creeping in…
Am I lean enough?
Do I need to push harder?

But not this time.

This prep has been completely different than any other one I’ve done.

Right now the focus is keeping me full while my body burns through calories fast… and yes, that means I’m sitting at 300+ carbs every single day.

Prep doesn’t mean starving yourself. It means having a smart plan and trusting the process.

To date in my IFBB Figure & Bikini career, this is honestly my favorite shape I’ve brought to the stage. And I’m proud of what me and Renee have built so far, no matter the outcome.

Now the focus is simple:
Refine the details.
Dial in the posing.
Bring the best version of this physique to the stage.

3 weeks.
Charlotte Pro… let’s go. 🔥

Who else is in prep right now???

“Fitness isn’t about looking good, it’s about feeling confident, strong, unstoppable, badass, and beautiful IN YOUR OWN SKIN.”

As a prep & lifestyle coach, my mission goes far beyond helping women lose weight or get “in shape.”

My goal is to help women see the power that was already inside them.

Fitness isn’t just about abs, smaller waistlines, or a number on a scale.

It’s about:
✨ Walking into a room with confidence
✨ Feeling strong in your own body
✨ Building discipline that carries into every part of life
✨ Discovering that you’re capable of far more than you thought

Through strength training and disciplined habits, I’ve watched women transform not just physically — but mentally and emotionally.

The most rewarding moment for me as a coach isn’t just the progress photo.

It’s when a woman realizes:

“Wow… I’m stronger than I thought.”

Because fitness isn’t about looking good.

It’s about feeling confident, strong, unstoppable, and powerful in your own skin.

And when a woman starts to believe that about herself…

Everything in her life changes.

That’s what successful coaching means to me.

VACATION doesn’t ruin prep — lack of preparation does.

As a coach, I tell my athletes the same thing every time travel comes up: plan ahead or fall behind.

If you’re going on vacation during prep, you can’t just hope there will be prep-friendly options everywhere you go.

Prepare to be successful.

✔️ Pack your food ahead of time
✔️ Look at restaurant menus before you arrive
✔️ Ask for dry grilled protein and veggies
✔️ Don’t skip training or cardio

Most restaurants will accommodate if you ask.

And just because you’re on vacation doesn’t mean workouts and cardio go on the back burner. Get up early and get it done before family or friend time.

When I travel during prep, I pack things like:
• Pre-cooked chicken or lean steak
• Microwavable rice cups
• Rice cakes
• Pre-measured oats
• Boiled eggs
• Protein powder
• Vegetables for easy snacks

Prep doesn’t stop when you leave town. Discipline travels with you.

You will lose people during prep. And not because you changed… but because you stopped explaining yourself.

Most people will never understand the why.

They won’t understand:
The discipline.
The isolation.
The obsession.
The early mornings when your body is tired but your mind refuses to quit.
The nights you go to bed exhausted but proud.

They see restriction.
You feel purpose.

They see obsession.
You feel alignment.

Prep isn’t a hobby.
It’s not just workouts and macros.

It’s full commitment.
Heart.
Mind.
Body.
Soul.

It’s choosing long-term vision over temporary comfort.
It’s pushing through when your body is screaming and your goal is whispering, “Keep going.”

And here’s the truth no one talks about:

The more locked in you become,
the more uncomfortable you make people who aren’t.

You don’t need to explain your discipline to people who judge it.
And you don’t need to defend your why to people who don’t live with your fire.

The right ones?
They won’t question you.
They won’t mock you.
They won’t ask you to justify it.

They’ll just say,
“I see how much this matters to you. I’ve got you.”

Prep will test your body.
But it will expose your circle.

If you’re in this season right now — locked in, misunderstood, but unshaken — I see you.

Tag your ride-or-die who supports your why without needing it explained.
