The dream started on a magazine rack, but the real story is what it took to get here—and why the goal matters. Lorayne opens up about growing from a cheer-loving teen into a coach on a mission to help women claim strength, health, and purpose without chasing gimmicks. The cover run for Miss Health and Fitness 2026 becomes more than a title; it’s a platform to show that longevity is built on muscle, recovery, and conviction.
We walk through the messy middle: seasons of numbing, a return to the gym for the wrong reasons, then a shift toward self-respect and sustainable training. Lorayne pulls back the curtain on physique competing—the highs, the mental toll, and the crucial difference between stage-ready and healthy. She shares how she programs now as a trainer and instructor, balancing clients, ranch work, and her own lifts with a recovery-first mindset. Steps are daily, strength is progressive, and rest is strategy, not guilt.
Nutrition gets a full reset too. Instead of rigid “bro diets,” Lorayne embraces functional nutrition with plenty of protein, fiber, and micronutrients. She works with providers on labs and food sensitivity testing, framing data as guidance rather than a cage. Expect myth-busting: cardio is not a fat-loss magic trick, and muscle is the organ of longevity. She also addresses common misconceptions about hormones, making a clear case for evidence-based therapy guided by labs when needed.
Underneath it all is faith and service. Confidence comes from integrity, showing up for your body, and aligning choices with values. For high achievers who shelved their health to build families or businesses, this conversation is a nudge—and a plan—to rebuild strength without burning out.
