Stop being so hard on yourself!

We put so much pressure on ourselves to always give our best—to hit PRs, to push through, to leave the gym feeling like we gave 110%.

But the truth is… some days, just showing up is your best.

If you wake up drained, stressed, or running on fumes, and you still make the effort to move your body, you didn’t “half-ass” your workout—you gave 100% of what you had today.

And that matters.

Because success isn’t built on the days you feel unstoppable. It’s built on the days you show up when you don’t feel like it.

So if all you had was 30% today, and you still put that into your workout—you gave your all.

And that’s enough.

If you don’t celebrate these days, it’ll only get harder to show up and therefore feel like you’re falling backwards rather than still pushing the needle forward one step at a time.

Let’s talk cable face pulls!!!

Working your rear belt is not only important for posture but it’s what will give you that LEAN & defined BACK physique that I know so many of us are chasing.

Although it’s technically the third head of your shoulder, I like to incorporate it in my back day because it just flows better for me.

Because it is an isolated and smaller msucle group, make sure you’re going lighter and working that mind-muscle connection to prevent your other big muscles to take over.

Rather than thinking about going heavier to progressive overload, this is a good exercise to progress over time by slowing down the tempo, increasing in reps or taking less rest in between.

Make sure you’re feeling it in the right area before you go heavier in weight so you’re not compensating!

The key here is this:
💎 elbows should stay in line with your ears
💎 exhale as you pull with a slow eccentric
💎 squeeze your shoulder blades together and hold for a second

I hope this was helpful, make sure to SAVE this video and let me know if you have any questions.

What exercise should I make next?? 👇🏽👇🏽

So many women are stuck in habits they don’t eve

So many women are stuck in habits they don’t even realize are holding them back.

��The way you think about food matters. Your body isn’t meant to be micromanaged, punished, or restricted. It’s meant to be nourished, fueled, and trusted.

�✨ Eating should feel freeing, not stressful.

✨ Food should support your goals, not control your life.

✨ A strong, healthy body starts with a strong, healthy mindset.

If you want to build muscle, support your metabolism, and finally feel at peace with food, you have to challenge the old ways of thinking.

The way you eat isn’t just about your physique—it’s about your energy, confidence, and long-term health.

We’ve come a long way but… we all start somewhere.

And truthfully? Most people don’t struggle with going to the gym… they struggle with feeling lost when they get there.

➡️ Walking around aimlessly, hopping from machine to machine. ➡️ Convincing yourself you shouldn’t go because you’re “too tired” (when really, you just don’t know what to do). ➡️ Feeling flakey, lazy, or inconsistent—when in reality, you just need a solid plan to follow.

The difference between staying stuck and building your dream physique?

A structured plan designed for you to shred fat, build muscle, and actually SEE results.

🔥 That’s why I created LIMITLESS: SHRED & BUILD—so you don’t have to waste time second-guessing every workout.

Of course being in a deficit comes with it’s own

Of course being in a deficit comes with it’s own challenges but if you’re feeling like crap most hours of the day and most days of the week…

It might be a sign that you’re actually hurting your progress more than seeing weight loss..

Here are some of the red flags to watch out for :

🚩 constant fatigue - feeling sluggish, tired, and low energy throughout the day

🚩 dizziness/lightheadedness - especially when you workout or exercise

🚩 intense & uncontrollable cravings - always thinking about food and can’t control those late night binging

🚩 unmotivated - can’t find the motivation to lift and do things that you normally would do

🚩 poor recovery and sleep - waking up feeling like you never slept

🚩 weight loss has stalled - you’re no longer losing any weight or the scale is creeping back up.

& if you’re nodding your head thinking “that’s how I feel” it’s time to UP your calories and give your body a diet break.

Just a reminder: You can’t build your dream body, hating every second of it.

So if you’re struggling each day, wondering how you’re going to sustain this, probably means it’s time to switch your approach.

You can lose weight while still living a life you’re obsessed with.
