Thursday to one of our most impressive ladies.. in these photos, 62 years young, didn’t even start lifting until her 60’s. If that isn’t inspirational- I don’t know what is!

Happy hump day with a little transformation. Lifestyle client to bikini competitor! This client started just lifting a few days a week in group classes, I inevitably talked her into doing a show and several shows later- on the right you can see her at our last national show together. Super proud of that back shot transformation 🙌🏻. And yes, if you want a perky pair of cheeks as seen here, heavy weights and proper nutrition are required!

Lifestyle client to bikini competitor! Oddly enough the comment I hear the most about these transformation posts is “I’m afraid I’m too old to do that”. The vast majority of these posts are women between 40-60. It’s a great time to get in the best shape of your life. Maybe you don’t want to do a show, but everyone needs to be lifting weights, especially at this time - protect your bones! Stay functional. Carry your own groceries, you don’t want to be asking someone at Walmart to carry your dog food to your car for you in 20 years!

From CrossFit with no nutrition guidance - to a different training style entirely with nutrition timed and planned efficiently. This transformation was a great example of someone with all the right habits already formed that just needed to be guided correctly. Big transformations are always fun to be apart of, but getting to carefully change details for someone that is already training intensely is fun to watch as little tweaks can make the biggest differences!

Shelly, 5.5 weeks out.. wellness competitor crossing over to do WPD as well. Can’t let a good ab and thigh shot go to waist. Keep it up!

Going back through some previous client’s transformations. This one was from 2016. Rhian worked her ass off, she worked with me 1-1 a few times a week, trained on her own and also went from being a non gym goer to being on the top attendees list at the gym month after month. Still super proud of all of her hard work almost 10 years later. Grateful to get to be doing what we love for a living for the last decade!

1 year transformation for Wendy. Since she just got back to work on some new goals with us, I thought it would be appropriate to share her original transformation from 2019! A bodybuilding show was on the bucket list so we got to work. One year flies by before you know it, you can either chase after your goals or look back and wish you’d started!

‘s transformation from lifestyle client to IFBB pro bikini competitor. Jen started with us 6 years ago give or take. The goal initially was just to try something new, have some new programming and goals. I talked her into doing her first show with maybe a week to prepare, which was July of 2019. We then went on to eventually turn pro in October of 2020. Since then, we have had a small break away from the stage and then two successful seasons as a pro. Jen is a great competitor and client because she takes in all of the small details and makes it her job to cross all the T’s and dot the I’s. She stays educated and knowledgeable in the space, is aware of her own body and her goals and just does the stuff required. For now, we are taking our first true long offseason to work on her last feedback. She is making great progress with training and I’m sure the glutes will be making a great comeback by next season!
