Lady Luck Lifting

Something I’ve been talking about with some clients a lot lately…

You don’t have to pursue strength or fitness the way everyone else tells you to.

And sometimes, I think we get so caught up in what we’re supposed to be doing that we forget to ask ourselves:
“Do I actually fu***ng enjoy this?”

You don’t have to love running.
You don’t have to love lifting weights.
You don’t have to train 4-5 days a week.
You don’t have to chase a smaller body.
You don’t have to have the same goals as everyone else.
You just need to find something that works for you.

Something you enjoy.
Something that fits your life.
Something that makes you feel good.
Something that makes you want to keep coming back.
And that might change.
The goal that mattered to you six months ago might not matter now.

Maybe you started training because you wanted to lose weight, and now you want to get fu***ng strong.

Maybe you wanted to hit a PB, and now you just want movement that makes you feel good.

Maybe you thought you needed to run, but actually… you fu***ng hate it 😅

That’s okay.

You’re allowed to change your mind.
You’re allowed to change your goals.
You’re allowed to try something new.
You don’t need to become someone else to become stronger.

You just need to find your thing.

Especially lifting….

You don’t need to be good at it before you’re allowed to do it.
You’re allowed to be s**t at squatting.
You’re allowed to have no fu***ng clue how to brace.
You’re allowed to be new to bench pressing.
You’re allowed to learn new skills well out of your sport.
You’re allowed to wobble, f**k up, learn, adjust and try again.
That’s literally what training is for.

You don’t walk into the gym already knowing exactly HOW to do everything.

You don’t walk into the gym already strong.
You become strong by being willing to suck at something long enough to get better at it.

So stop waiting until you feel like you belong.

You’re allowed to be a beginner.

Now go do the hard s**t 💁🏼‍♀️

For so many women, we’ve been taught to judge our bodies before we’ve ever been taught to understand them.

Strength training has helped change that.

It teaches you to become more aware of your body, build confidence in what it can do, and trust it instead of constantly fighting it.

And I think that shift is one of the most powerful things lifting can give us.
