In Episode 37 we get real about training, movement, and building the kind of strength that actually supports your life, not just your New Year motivation.
I’ve been a personal trainer since I was 18. I’m 54 now, which means I’ve seen the fitness world evolve for nearly 40 years. Trends change, fads come and go, but the fundamentals of training do not change. And that is exactly what we are digging into today.
Whether you are starting fresh, restarting after a long break, or leveling up your current routine, this episode gives you the honest, practical steps you need.
✔️ How to truly assess where you are right now
✔️ Why January 1st is not the magic day everyone thinks it is
✔️ How to build movement goals that fit your life
✔️ What volume and intensity actually mean
✔️ How to know if you are recovering or overtraining
✔️ Why strength training should be part of everyone’s plan
✔️ What it really takes to make progress that lasts into 2026
No guilt, no shame, and no unrealistic expectations. Just real talk from someone who has done every kind of training, the good, the bad, and the “bury yourself” kind. I’m looking at you, CrossFit six days a week era.
If you have ever wondered…
“Where do I start”
“What is the right amount of movement for me”
“Do I really need to train every day”
“What should my goals even be”
This episode is your roadmap.
Let’s build a foundation. Let’s create progress that lasts. And let’s help you step into 2026 feeling strong, energized, and confident.
Comment below with any training questions you have. I would love to answer them on the podcast or on social.
Let’s rise, redefine, and move forward with intention, one honest step at a time.
