If your feed has been serving you ALL the strength If your feed has been serving you ALL the strength training + Pilates content lately…same. 😂

I was recently interviewed by @womenshealthmag about this exact topic because this questions is everywhere. And as someone who has taught (and loved!) both for years, I’m here to say:

You don’t have to pick a side. Why not incorporate both into your fitness routine? 

Y’all know I love lifting and swinging heavy things. And I’ve always loved Pilates. I have hundreds of videos on my YouTube channel and in the BAC to prove it. 

Strength training is an incredibly effective tool for building muscle, increasing strength, and longevity. 

Pilates is an amazing way to work your core, control, stability, muscular endurance, mobility, and body awareness. 

If you know me, you know I will never demonize or criticize anything that gets you moving and feeling good— that’s the goal! 

They aren’t competing modalities. They can actually complement each other really well.

So instead of asking, “Which one is better?”

How about we ask: “What are my goals—and how can I use both to help me get there?”

That’s why all my programs include a mix of both. We’re doing it over with UNPAUSE in the BAC and this is exactly why I created my FREE 4-week 3-1-1 Strength + Pilates Challenge on YouTube.

A little strength.
A little Pilates.
A routine designed to help you build strength, move well, and keep showing up.

25 years ago I walked out of my first college clas 25 years ago I walked out of my first college class of the day to find my campus at Virginia Tech swarming, and not in the usual rush to class way. I knew instantly something was wrong. It seemed like everyone was on their cell phone—at a time when cell phones were fairly new to being mainstream. I walked to my next class and found a note on the door stating that classes were canceled for the day. I walked back to my department building and found students huddled around a small TV, watching the Twin Towers smoke and then crumble. 

I went to college alongside so many students from DC and the surrounding areas. So many of my classmates had parents and family members who worked at the Pentagon or in other government buildings. Cell service was sparse. While I knew my family in the mountains was safe, my classmates waited hours to hear from their families. 

That day is a bit of a blur, but I remember being so grateful for my roommates and our neighbors. We kept the TV on in our apartment the entire afternoon and evening, while we deemed our next door neighbor’s place the “isolation room” for when someone needed a break from the horror. We were young, didn’t know what to think or what would happen next. We waited all day with one roommate while she waited to hear the fate of a close neighbor from home—we held her when she found out the bad news.  We cried, watched in shock, and tried to make sense of the senseless. 

The days that followed were also a blur but I do remember this: Americans showed up for each other. Countries around the world mourned with us. There was a collective grief for New York and for our country. There was a sense of community that we maybe haven’t experienced since. 

Today I honor and hold space for all of those grieving and remembering. For the victims, the survivors and all the heroes—the ones we heard of and the ones we’ll never know. For the lives lost, the families that carry the grief, for all of those who showed up that day, and continue to show up today, bravely, courageously, and with love. 

25 years and we will never forget.

Earlier this week I hit send on a vulnerable email Earlier this week I hit send on a vulnerable email about my own perimenopause journey. While I’ve always been committed to keeping it real and sharing the messy parts of life here and on social media in general, it still makes me nervous to admit I don’t have it all together...

Especially when it comes to fitness, nutrition, and health, this is my job after all. I’ve put years into my education, multiple certifications, a master’s degree in exercise science, and 20 years of my career into gaining experience in this field.

Yet, my body in its 40s has really thrown me for a loop. As we gear up for UNPAUSE, I worried about getting honest about my journey. How can I ask people to trust me as an expert in this field while also admitting I struggle too?

Especially with all the “experts”  online claiming they have a perfect plan, the magic pill, that one thing that will change everything. It won’t take long, and it’s not hard at all! Spoiler: anyone telling you this is either ill-informed, wants your money, or, likely, both.

The true reality of this midlife season? It’s complicated. 

AND there’s a lot we can do about it.

This is why we created UNPAUSE.  At the same time I was getting my Perimenopausal and Menopause Fitness Certifications and learning everything I could for my own journey, our Registered Dietitian, Vivian, was doing her own deep dive into midlife nutrition. We were getting the same questions and hearing your stories, and knew we wanted to offer something different.

My personal shift didn’t come with having all the answers — it came from honoring my body where it is and implementing evidence-based strategies to support it.

That’s the shift I want for you, too. Not a quick fix, and certainly not punishing your changing body into submission.

A decision to keep showing up for yourself, exactly where you are, in this new season.

Wherever you are in your journey, and whatever goals you have during midlife (yes, that CAN include fat loss or body recomposition), we want to help you do it safely, effectively, sustainably, and without the shame, guilt, or blame we often see in the world of women’s health.
