While I naturally gravitate toward strength training and interval work, the routine can easily become stale without some tweaks here and there. - Fortunately, there are plenty of simple ways to add a challenge without blowing up the program.

I love this. I’ve worked really hard over the years to get women to embrace getting strong, but a lot of them still fear lifting weights because they worry they’ll get bulky. I truly believe that strength training is life-changing for women because I’ve seen it over and over again: both in terms of the positive effects it has on their body, but more importantly, how it helps confidence, relationship with food, etc. I hope this video gets women excited to be strong. I’d appreciate if you’d share this to help spread the word. These women are all strong badasses.
