Sweat With Soph

Your body is the only thing you will have for your entire life…

So it deserves to be treated with love and prioritised over someone’s else’s standards.

Choose long term health, not short term aesthetics.

Choose to be strong and capable, not weak and breakable.

Choose strength over scales. Always 🫶🏻

Aesthetics should never be the goal…👇🏼

Your body will forever change its appearance. It’s an inescapable fact of aging.

That’s one of the many reasons why having an aesthetic goal is futile - the bar will never stop moving.

Focusing on your HEALTH is not only more achievable, but future proofs your capabilities, independence and confidence.

The primary goal should never be about looks.

It should always be about your health 🫶🏻

A little message, from me to you 🫶🏻

This isn’t about LOOKS…

It’s about your HEALTH 🌸

✨ 90 SECOND MEAL PREP ✨

Come with me as I prepare 10 days worth of breakfast burritos and honey rice crispy treats 🤤

While this did take me about 4 hours, it always feels good once it’s done! It’s a game changer as having grab-and-go or heat-and-eat meals like this makes staying on track easy 👏🏻

Overall, this comes to about $0.50 per Rice Bubble bar and $7.40 per burrito, which could absolutely be made cheaper by shopping specials and store deals 💸

Meals like this (and do many more decisions eats) are available in my client app if you’re feeling hungry 😋

DM me if you want stress free meal plans!

Confession time 🤫

I haven’t properly trained in almost 2 months…

And honestly…I feel awful…🥴

Not because I’ve lost years of progress, but more so because I’ve lost confidence in what my body can do.

But it has reminded me that strength isn’t just about looking good.

It’s about having a body that makes moving feel effortless, pain free and less scary ✨

All because I choose strength over scales, daily 💪🏻

If you’re ready to stop chasing short term goals and start building a body that feels strong, capable and confident, just slide into my DMs and let’s chat 💬

Let’s play a game 👾

You either look back at the first half of the year, regretting you didn’t start wearier or keep your promises, and continue to choose to walk along that path…

OR

You learn from the last 6 months, reflect on what’s worked and what hasn’t, then choose to walk a path forward seeking opportunities to grow and reach your goals…

Choose your character 👀

(and get a coach as your epic side kick 🤗)

✨ LETS TALK BODYWEIGHT TRAINING ✨

It’s easy to get caught up chasing heavier weights, but considering most of our daily activities don’t involve dumbbells or barbells, bodyweight training is seriously underrated 💪🏼

TLDW 👇🏼
✔️ Build relative strength
✔️ Challenge your stabiliser muscles
✔️ Improve coordination and body awareness
✔️ Expose weaknesses in balance, mobility and core control
✔️ Carry over into everyday life
✔️ Extremely scaleable and accessible

And before any of you brush this off because it’s too easy…go on, do one pull up…👀

So no, bodyweight training isn’t a step backwards.

It’s the stuff that helps you use the strength you’ve built in the gym more effectively 🙌🏻

Warm up for a PB with me 💪🏻

TLDR version 👇🏼
- Dynamic stretching is key to help with blood flow and range of motion 🧘🏻‍♀️
- Weighted warmups should be low volume - stay warm, not fatigued, so increase weight and reduce the reps until you reach your goal weight 🏆
- You can calculate the weight of your warmup reps based off a percentage of your top set 🧮

Need help working through your next PB? Comment “WARMUP” and I’ll slide into your DMs 💬

Just another insight into what goes on through my mind when training 🫠

Consistency over confusion, hallelujah 🙌🏻
Quality over quantity, hallelujah 🙌🏻
Guided coaching over winging it, hallelujah 🙌🏻
Sliding into my DMs to get started, hallelujah 🙌🏻
