Ok, I’ll admit it: I’m not a weight-loss coach.

Ok, I’m going to come out and just say it. I’m not a trainer who’s going to encourage you to lose weight.

Yikes. I know. But stick with me.

It’s not that losing weight isn’t a valuable choice sometimes. I just don’t think it’s as important or as easy as we think. Society has prioritized weight loss and deemed it to be the fix for mostly anything!

• Sore knees - lose 20lbs!

• Chronic back pain - drop 15lbs!

• Reoccurring injuries - yep another 10lbs!

Will it help? Sure, sometimes! But there is a much more direct way to affect pain - strength train! Intentional strength training will help create long, strong muscles, help build strong stable joints & increase mobility and ease of movement through your body.

These all lead to decreased pain!

That could be in the length of time you experience pain or the amount of pain you feel at any given time.

Getting stronger and learning how to listen to your body is a more reliable game plan. You lift heavy things (with decent form) and you get stronger. When you’re stronger it is easier to complete your daily tasks.

The coolest thing - this change happens quickly! Within 4-6 weeks you will feel a positive change in your body. Honestly, it’s pretty incredible. This is commonly known as Newbie Gains and you’re going to be amazed.

It’s all about consistency, babe. Figure out what days work and stick with them. You don’t even need a lot! One or two days a week is a fantastic start!
