Nothing beats the peace of an empty gym. Just me, the iron, and the goals. It feels good to be back at it after a little break. Ready to keep building and getting stronger every single session. #gymtok #FitnessJourney #BodyRecomp #ProgressNotPerfection #StrengthTraining #BuildingMuscle #TheShopGym
Can you tell I LOVE back days? 🖤🦇

The scale hasnt moved in 2 weeks but my chest is smaller.
How in the FUCK is that fair?! #bodyrecomp
Shower thoughts after adding cardio + a 200 cal deficit 😮💨
Tired now… but abs by May. Trusting the cut, one exhausted day at a time.

I was so tired this morning, I did not do my upper body strength training when I got up. And of course I was tired after working all day, BUT I did the routine this evening anyway. Please clap. 😏 Five months in, progress is slow, but slow progress is still progress. 🏆 #BodyRecomp #StrengthTraining
You thought a lil dusting of snow was gonna get you out of cardio? You dont get that #HotPupSummer bod unless you put in the work now.
Good work tho. Coach got somethin for ya while yer huffin n puffin down there. Imma hit the showers. 🤙

Trap bar farmer walks are put on hold until I reach my desired body fat percentage.
Why?
Because adding trap bar frame walks back into the rotation adds two days and since I am cutting I will not get full gains from the exercise
Same weight as 10/29. Thought I was stuck. Turns out I dropped fat, gained muscle, and my body score jumped 3 points.
Scale stayed the same—I didn’t. 💪

Want to know how to build muscle and lose weight at the same time?
Here’s what actually works 👇
💪 Slight deficit: 200–300 cal/day
🍗 High protein every meal
🏋️♂️ Lift heavy [1]
➡️ A 2021 study showed this combo preserves lean mass while still burning fat.
#BodyRecomp #Nutrition
Lose fat and gain muscle at the same time. Aim for 1.6-2.2g protein per kg of bodyweight, use compound lifts, and track your progress weekly! See real tips for recomposition success in our article. #FitnessTips #BodyRecomp
Down 20.3 lbs since May. 💪
Body fat ⬇️ to 23%.
Lean mass? Still solid.
But the real win?
➡️ Spandex shorts = loose.
➡️ Jeans = about tofalling down at the football game (whoops 😅).
Not chasing skinny.
Building sustainable health.

5.5 months in and 33 pounds down. Just 5 more lbs to go to hit my birthday goal. Counting calories and macros daily, 3 days a week cardio, 4 days a week strength training. It's not fast, but it's steady!

Happy Friday puppers!

One year ago I was the pup on the left. This morning Im the pup on the right. If I get off this bed these briefs will fall off my ass.
Body recomp is a long, gradual process, and many times you may feel like nothings happening.
Take pictures. See how well you really do.

I’m documenting every day— to show that progress isn’t about perfect reps or picture-perfect form.
It’s about showing up, even when you’re humbled by a kettlebell. 😂

65:00 on the bike tonight.
Every drop of sweat, every pedal stroke -this is me showing up for the woman I’m becoming.
Trans. Strong. Focused. Healing.

Still early, but this is momentum.
Consistency > motivation.

That FEELING of putting on clothes that fit, am I right?! I thought at 56 it was too late. I'm just not young anymore. ...Well, NOPE! There's STILL nothing I can't do to have the life I want! #menopause #ladiesover50 #nonscalevictory #nsv #bodyrecomp #bodypositivity #selflove
Learning how to actually use my muscles, not just grow them, changed how I carry myself, and how confident I am in strength.
And I’m bringing that same energy to my programs. More details coming soon.

Last night, I noticed my body fat is starting to go down a little more... But so is my muscle mass. I'm now a little over 18.5% bf and 130 pounds... That's a little TOO light for my taste 😳
Looks like I'll be doing less reps and heavier weights at the gym from now on 😅😅😅

#accountability pic from today, InBody scan from last week. Holding steady, which isn’t really what I want. Had a tough week trying to get in my workouts. Hoping next week is better. #fitnesssky #fitness #trainforhealth #bodyrecomp #fitafter40
Chest and Back today. Feels good being back in it after a break. Back on my workout splits and working towards my goals. Progress every day, not perfection. #FitnessJourney #BodyRecomp #BuildingMuscle #StrengthTraining #ProgressNotPerfection #bodybuilding #bodybuilding
Picture perfect…

Feels like I've been stuck at 19% body fat for months now, despite adjusting my calories... But then I see my abs peeking through when lying down - and I'm not even flexing, either - and wonder if my scale is lying to me 😳

Ngl, as someone who spent decades fighting against my genetics, it is amazing to see results from my slow-and-steady fitness program (and the long recomp process)! She thiicccckkk! 😏🥵

Wasn’t feeling too motivated tonight and needed a change of pace. Didn’t let that stop me and still went home to finish the grind. Don’t let anything stop you. #fitnessmotivation #bodybuildingprep #realtalk #BodyRecomp #FitnessJourney #ProgressNotPerfection #BuildingMuscle #bodybuildingmotivation
