🥇💪🏼🏆 ✨ It takes a village to be stage ready.
For months you LIFT the heavy things in mismatched sweats and a backwards hat and you EAT the boring things at work, driving carpool, walking the dog, and sometimes at midnight in a dark kitchen BUT when it’s showtime and you have less than 15 minutes on stage, all that’s left is to do is BE poised, pretty, and perfect from head to toe.
“Stage Presence” is a crucial component of judging and my competition hair is always on point and an important feature of my look thanks to Blowdry Boutique!
Blowdry Boutique in downtown Winnetka is my one stop shop for gorgeous hair: cut, color and top of the line extensions. I’m obsessed with their newest extension system called the “butterfly” and highly recommend it to level up your look. 🦋

🏆🥇🙏🏼 After taking almost two years off from competing, I knew my posing routine was solid but it was still safe and basic. At 58 and 3/4 years old 😳 I knew I needed to up my stage game to bring some sass and class to stand out from athletes much younger than me. I had been obsessively following an incredible posing coach when I took the leap and asked Cristina Araujo if she was taking on new virtual clients. She said yes. 👏🏼 Cristina and I met once a week for six weeks and she completely transformed my stage presence. Not only did I win two of my classes at the Whitney Jones Productions Natural Classic, I (or should I say “we”) also beat dozens of fabulous competitors to clinch the BEST POSER AWARD. Even though Cristina is in San Diego, I take her everywhere I go. Give me my laptop and a pair of heels and it’s game on anywhere and everywhere.
Follow her, hire her, take her with you 😂. Her insights, wisdom, experience, encouragement, attention to detail, expertise and positive, energetic vibe is second to none. We have a weekly date until Ben Weider Naturals Pro/Am on November 13 but I am happy to share her 😉. All you BIKINI & FIT MODEL GIRLS would love her. You’re welcome. 💝
Cristina you are a superhero 🦸🏻‍♀️♥️.

Cold Plunge Protocol for Adolescents.
Adolescents today are navigating the pressures of hormonal changes, school, social transitions, and highly-competitive sports.
🏁🏁 I saved STRESS INOCULATION for last. Be sure to get there.

At Boss Body we follow the “55/5” Rule for optimal Adolescent Health & Wellness resulting in profound benefits for student-athletes:
✅Psychologically
✅Physically
✅Academically
✅Socially

⏳55 Degrees Celsius for 5 Minutes

The Neurochemical Shift
⬆️Dopamine (motivation, elevated mood).
⬆️Norepinephrine (sharpens focus, decreases brain fog).
⬇️Cortisol (reduces anxiety and emotional tension).

Key Physical Benefits
⬇️Joint and Growth Plate Inflammation - the cold acts as a natural analgesic to reduce swelling where tendons attach to developing bones.
⬇️Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) cold exposure suppresses the inflammatory markers that cause the muscle soreness that leaks 24-48 hours after hard training.
⬆️Clearing of Metabolic Waste via vasoconstriction which allows for fresh, oxygenated blood to flow back into muscles to speed up repair.
⬆️Parasympathetic Drivers for Physical Repair when the “fight or flight” mode shifts into “rest and digest” mode the heart rate slows, sleep is deep and releases HGH (human growth hormone) is released for tissue repair.

💤Better Sleep - the rapid drop in core temperature triggers the parasympathetic nervous system - the “Rest & Digest” Mode.

🌟STRESS INOCULATION - When an adolescent (and adult!) steps into cold water, the brain screams danger ⚠️, initiating an automatic “fight-or-flight” response.
By forcing yourself to stay calm, control breathing, and sit in the discomfort, you are practicing “deliberate emotional regulation under stress”. In sports psychology this is called “stress inoculation” which trains the 🧠 to to recognize that ANY stressful event is manageable: icy plunge, difficult test or exam, high/pressure free throw, class presentation.
We could all benefit from learning to slow down the heart rate and think through the panic.

💪🏼🏆🥇🌵🍾♥️ The Whitney Jones Natural Classic is a wrap and this time I allowed spectators 😆 who showed up in the front row with so much love and support! Thank you Bella, Izzy, and Jeff (and Carson for the after party!) for bringing so much fun and energy - the crowd was cheering for you too!
Now it’s time to eat, lift and get huge for the Ben Weider Naturals Pro/Am.
Going on a decade with the best coach ever COACH - I wouldn’t and couldn’t do this without you. 🫶🏼

📚🎊80% of chronic diseases are related to lifestyle factors, making therapeutic lifestyle changes highly effective for fighting heart disease, hypertension, Type 2 diabetes, obesity, IBS, osteoporosis, COPD, depression, anxiety, and metabolic syndrome to name a few.

The Harvard Medical School Executive Education “Lifestyle & Wellness Coaching” certificate equips health coaches with personalized techniques and evidence-based tools and strategies to compassionately and collaboratively empower clients to make informed and sustainable lifestyle changes on their way to holistic health.

❤️‍🩹💲 $28.36 Billion is the projected value of the Health Coaching market by 2028. It’s refreshing and inspiring to be actively involved in this cutting-edge shift in mentality and motivation in the health & wellness industry.
The depth of knowledge I gained from this program, especially the Six Core Pillars - has completely reframed the way I structure client programming.
🐈 props to Wreginald and Loki for their emotional support throughout the program, especially the late night tip toeing across my computer keyboard.

📣💪🏼👙🥉I’m baaaack! Two years away from the stage made me realize how much I missed EVERYTHING about competing. Thank you COACH for welcoming me back with open arms, believing in me, and empowering me to hit the stage at my most confident and prepared. Family and friends, you know that I could not and would not be able to do this without your love, support, and flexibility. You are my squad and I’m so proud to say “WE DID IT!”

🤝🏼Not all stress is the enemy. Make friends with ‘metabolic stress’.

❓What is metabolic stress?
Metabolic stress is one of the three primary drivers of muscle growth (hypertrophy). It triggers a chemical reaction that forces muscles to 1) adapt, 2) grow larger, and 3) become more efficient at producing energy.

❓What is Antagonist Training?Antagonist Training targets OPPOSING muscle groups. (Back/chest, quadriceps/hamstrings, biceps/triceps, glutes/hip flexors).

❓How does Antagonist Training create metabolic stress?
Antagonist Training increases metabolic stress by demanding continuous high-intensity work with minimal rest.

❓What are the other benefits of Antagonist Training?

☑️Increase Muscle Growth: Training opposing muscle groups creates high metabolic stress which stimulates the nervous system and prompts a greater growth hormone response than training the muscle in isolated sets.

☑️Optimize Time:
Supersets = pair opposing exercises. The first muscle group - antagonist - rests (here I’m training BACK, POSTERIOR DELTS) while the second muscle group - agonist- is resting (CHEST, ANTERIOR DELTS). Then switch.

☑️Increase Strength & Power:
Activating the antagonist muscle immediately before working the agonist muscle increases power output and enhances neuromuscular efficiency.

☑️Prevent Injury:
Strengthening the opposing muscle group ensures equal tension, prevents postural issues, and stabilizes the joint.

📢BONUS FAT BURNER:
Muscle is metabolically active therefore muscle improves insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism, meaning your body is better at using the food you eat for ENERGY rather than storing it as FAT.

Protein BUILDS muscle.
1️⃣Higher muscle mass is independently associated with lower all-cause mortality, making it a stronger predictor of LIFESPAN than BMI.

2️⃣Muscle tissue regulates blood sugar by taking up glucose thus reducing insulin resistance = prevents Type 2 Diabetes.

3️⃣Muscle tissue helps lower cardiovascular disease risk by reducing blood pressure and systemic inflammation.

🚺Peri/Meno/Post-menopusal women - Muscle tissue reduces the risk of sarcopenia (age-related muscle mass, especially after estrogen drops).
