Is your fitness progress stalling? This could be why 👇🏼

Working out is only a small part of seeing results from our hard work. There are so many other important factors such as form, daily movement, sleep and nutrition. Here are some of the common reasons I see among my clients as to why they aren’t achieving their fitness and health goals.

I hear it again and again “oh but I worked out today, I can have the pizza”. Unfortunately that’s not how it works. Our bodies are meant to move and a 30 or even 60 minute workout is simply not enough. Non-exercise activity thermogenesis is essentially all the calories that a person burns through their daily activity excluding purposeful physical exercise. Think of the low-effort movements that you string together over the course of your day such as household chores like yard work and cleaning, strolling through the grocery aisle, taking the stairs, cooking dinner, playing with your kids, etc. Researchers have found that even small behavior changes can amplify or diminish how much NEAT you get, and this can shape your health in powerful ways. It’s important to look for the small moments in your day to get in that extra movement!

Most processed and packaged foods are strategically formulated to make you over eat. Plus the nutrients is much lower compared to that of fresh whole food nutrients. NOTHING compared to quality whole food protein and enough of it plus whole food carbs timed around your workouts. Also you see what you digest, not what you eat. So if your gut and liver aren’t metabolizing your food properly then you won’t absorb nutrients.

Sleep is EVERYTHING for gaining lean muscle tone. If you go to bed at 10:30 and wake up at 6:30 thinking you got 8 hours sleep, think again. Most of us don’t fall asleep right away and often wake up in the night or don’t actually get into a deep sleep. The goal is to create a solid night routine and get to bed by 10pm on average.

You should be going into every workout like you do an important meeting - warming up/activating your muscles and going in with the intention to get better at the exercises to see optimal results. DM me for my warm up video!

My top supplements I lean on after a bad nights sleep or when I need more energy, curb cravings + stamina 👇🏼

Last week I woke up a few times as my body has been a bit out of whack since dealing with the mold in my apartment, leaving me waking up a few times in the night. I knew I didn’t get near as deep of a sleep, which meant my cravings were going to be through the roof. And while they were, these supplements curbed those cravings so much because they support my hormones, blood sugar and energy so I don’t crash mid day, have 3-4 coffees or lean on packaged foods when I’m weak from fatigue (we’ve all been there).

This may seem like a lot to some of you and some may call me crazy… but I hear a lot of people saying how they drink 3+ coffees a day, pop Advil or tylenol at the first sign of a headache or energy drinks and protein bars or have a bottle of wine at the end of the day to wind down, and to me, that’s not something I consider healthy. It’s all relative and I choose to spend my money on supplements like these that support my body in times I’m not at my optimal level.

Sometimes I take a few, sometimes I take almost all of them. Reminder - I’m not a doctor and it’s always best to check with your doctor before taking supplements especially if you are on any medications.

Nothing better, am I right?

This cozy night in with my dog, a comfy sweatsuit, sardines and of course olive oil with some avocado oil sea salt potato chips and an early bed time really does it for me ☺️

When you see a fit person, it’s hard to visualize anything beyond that person’s current success with fitness. But you don’t see the hours upon hours of time and work, physically and mentally, that person has spent to achieve their results.

Progress is not linear. Most of us know this when we really think about it, but it helps to have some reminders.

We can easily believe that other people achieved their goals with a fraction of the resistance we’re facing. The reality is that real progression is never a straight line.
Some days you will feel so ready to have the best workout and really push yourselt, while others will be a struggle to complete 20 minutes. Here is what I remind myself when it comes to fitness:

1. I remind myself everyday that I GET to workout, I don’t HAVE to workout.
2. I used to tell myself I had to workout before noon. I now love a 3 or 4pm workout. When I started working more mornings at the studio I had no choice to workout in the mid-day. It’s all in your mindset.
3. I go into each workout asking myself how I can master the movements and actually get better at each exercise.
This takes full focus and being intentional with your movement. It also takes putting your ego aside as sometimes I won’t be sprinting at my fastest numbers but rather really focusing on my running technique or maybe I wont be using any ankle weights in Callanetics or l’ll choose the less intense resistance band but I’II really be focusing on my slow super controlled form.
4. Something will always be better than nothing. We don’t have to always have a perfect hour-long workout.
Sometimes a 15-20 min workout or a quick walk is just what you need to keep the momentum going.
5. I ask myself how I’m feeling that day. If I don’t get a solid 8 hours of deep sleep, I don’t push myself as hard.
And no matter what, I never push myselt so hard | leave my workout feeling worse than when I walked in.
6. When in doubt, MOVE your body. Movement is the antidote + true medicine!!
I hope these tips help you as much as they’ve helped me in my fitness journey!

Daily “boring” healthy habits that keep me lean 👇🏼

Honestly, the reason I stay lean is pretty boring to most people, and not what you likely want to hear. I’m not doing anything extreme. I’m not on some secret protocol. I just do the basics… a lot. I’ve mastered the mundane and have found joy in these practices.

I walk every day — nothing crazy, just consistent movement. I prioritize 8 hours of sleep because I know I’m a completely different human when I’m rested. And I make most of my own meals. Simple food. Protein, carbs, veggies. Nothing fancy, I switch up the veg to get a variety of plant fibres. I love veggies so it’s easy for me to me to eat them.

As a trainer and nutritionist, I’ve seen how easy it is to overlook this stuff because it doesn’t feel exciting. No one gets hyped about going to bed early or taking a 20–30 minute walk. But those things add up fast.

Walking keeps my blood sugar balanced and mind/nervous calm, sleep keeps my cravings and mood in check, cooking at home keeps things consistent without me having to track my calories.

It’s not sexy. It’s not dramatic. But it works. The boring habits are the ones I can stick to year-round, and that’s really been my superpower. Nothing extreme — just mastering the basics and letting them compound, just like your money does for you when you invest it!

Why I include wild sardines in my weekly routine 🐟

From a holistic lens, true beauty begins with deep nourishment. Wild sardines are one of the most nutrient-dense foods I turn to regularly. Here’s why:

🐟 Rich in omega-3s (EPA + DHA) - these essential fats support skin hydration, calm inflammation, and help maintain a healthy skin barrier.
🐟 High-quality protein + biotin - foundational for tissue repair, strong nails, and healthy hair.
🐟 Natural source of calcium + vitamin D - especially when you eat the bones, which support bone and nail health.
🐟 B12, selenium + other trace minerals - support
detoxification, energy, and cellular renewal.

They’re also low on the food chain, meaning less mercury exposure, and are one of the more sustainable seafood choices-something I always consider when choosing animal foods.

The only brand I buy is wild in spring water.
