My name is Shelly Young, and I am passionate about helping people achieve their fitness goals. With a background in wellness journeys, I have dedicated my life to promoting health and wellness. At Young Wellness, I believe in a holistic approach to fitness that encompasses not just physical strength, but also mental and emotional well-being. My journey in fitness began when I reached a point in my life when I needed the next size up in jeans. I started my journey a little over 300 pounds and have since gotten down to be half my original size! Over the years I have developed a comprehensive understanding of what it takes to stay fit and healthy while still enjoying life. Whether you're looking to loose fat, build muscle, or simply lead a more active lifestyle, I am here to guide and support you every step of the way.

The most expensive thing you own is the excuse that keeps you stuck. 🛑💸

We often worry about the "effort" of a 45-minute workout, but we forget the daily "effort" of:
❌ Feeling out of breath after one flight of stairs.
❌ Saying "no" to plans because of how you feel in your clothes.
❌ The mental toll of wishing things were different but staying the same.

If you stay exactly where you are today for another 365 days... will you be okay with that?

The "hard" of my virtual sessions is 45 minutes of work that leaves you stronger. The "hard" of inaction lasts 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Choose your "hard" wisely. 🏠✨

I am looking for 5 people ready to trade their "Old Hard" for a "New Strength." Tap the link in my bio to join our private, beginner-focused virtual sessions.

Be honest with yourself for a second: Are you waiting to 'get in shape' before you start working out?

It sounds like a joke, but I know that feeling. The fear that you’ll walk into a space—even a virtual one—and be 'too far gone' for the exercises. You tell yourself, 'I’ll start once I lose 10 pounds on my own.'

Stop waiting for 'perfect'. Start with 'possible'. Link to join is in the first comment below!👇

Modified Monday | Hex-Bar Deadlift
This is one of my favorite variations to build strength safely! The hex-bar deadlift helps protect your lower back while still training your glutes, legs, and core. 💪

Focus: Legs + glutes + back
How:
1️⃣ Stand tall inside the bar
2️⃣ Hinge at your hips, keep your chest lifted
3️⃣ Drive through your heels to stand tall
Reps: 8–12

Modification: Elevate the bar or use lighter weight if you’re new to this move or want to focus on form first.

Push yourself, rest smart, and feel the burn 💥
Your only competition? The last rep you did.

Sometimes wellness isn’t about doing more.
It’s about slowing down — taking a breath, sitting in stillness, and letting yourself just be.

If you’re carrying something heavy right now, remember:
💛 Rest is productive
💛 Stillness is healing
💛 You don’t have to earn your peace

Take a quiet moment today — close your eyes, breathe deeply, and give your body a moment to exhale.
That’s wellness too. 🌿

This week is a tough one for my family, and my heart just wasn’t in creating content yesterday. We experienced a loss, and I’m giving myself some grace as we navigate everything. 💛

But Modified Monday is about adapting — not perfection.
So today’s challenge is simple:
Do what you can. Move gently. Breathe deeply.
Even the smallest effort counts.

If you want to join me:
✔️ Sit-to-stand x 10
✔️ Optional repeat

Comment below if you completed it — we can lift each other up this week 🫶

Struggling to stay consistent with breakfast? Here’s a simple fix 👇

Transformation Tip Tuesday 🔄
Your transformation starts with balanced nutrition — protein, carbs, and healthy fats work together to fuel energy, build strength, and support consistency.

Try this quick and balanced Cheddar Sunrise Bake — the perfect grab-and-go breakfast that fuels your day and supports your transformation goals.

💛 Ingredients:

1 whole egg

1 serving diced potatoes

½ cup egg whites

Bake in a mini loaf pan and enjoy!

✨ Tip: Make it your own by adding lean proteins or veggies — like turkey sausage, spinach, peppers, or mushrooms. Small swaps like these keep your meals exciting and sustainable long-term!

Last weekend, I had the time to sit on a rock, breathe, and just be — the kind of stillness that clears your mind. But this weekend? I needed to move. To hike, climb, and feel the ground under my feet.

Sometimes self care is rest, and sometimes it’s reminding yourself you’re capable of more than your stress wants you to believe.

Both count. Both matter.

So whether you’re sitting still or sweating it out — make time for you. 🌿
