Yeah, we want to keep our fitness accessible, but the body is complex and over simplifying things ain’t it.

Everyone can benefit from squatting, hinging, pushing, pulling and carrying. AND, those are global movements, they don’t necessarily give you better hip joints, more resilient connective tissue, or even better movement. You’ll get good at those patterns and those patterns only. That’s not real life.

Train specifically, move globally. Do both.

This is a super unfortunate screen shot of me film

This is a super unfortunate screen shot of me filming some video for the upcoming 30 Days of Strength x Movement from @thisisprevail (shameless plug, stay tuned).

Our intern was helping me out and when we got done I said, “Do you think that will work?” She responded, “Yeah, but Sloane is in the background of this one.”

I’m really, really ok with that, even though it’s not “perfect.”

1. Lifting weights and women lifting weights is completely normalized for my daughter. That alone would be enough for me.

2. She also gets to see me at work. It’s not always ideal, but it’s important to me that she knows that passion, perseverance and commitment are necessary to reach goals. And so is doing things you don’t like.

3. She sees me struggle. I’m not interested in being perfect for her, or really for anyone. I’m not a fitness model, I’m not a digital media creator, I’m not an Olympic lifter, but I’m gonna overhead press this weight damnit, and then I’m gonna teach people about it. Waiting for perfect means you’ll never even become adequate, let alone masterful.

Who’s watching you?

The human body is funny. The better we get at something (lifting, running, climbing) the worse we are getting at a bunch of other stuff (rotating, breathing, stabilizing).

Even if you don’t have performance goals, living a robust, full life requires the ability to be able to move fully and robustly.

We have to continue to evaluate and question.

Do we have the capacity to do X, Y, and Z?

If not, what does that mean?

How do we get better?

We start to ask different questions. We aren’t searching for something wrong, we are finding a way to get better.

I’ll be spending the next three days learning new things from people who know more than me sparkle ✨

It’s always an exciting and challenging experience to participate in continuing education of my choosing. I’m at the point in my career where I have the privilege of being both choosy and frivolous with my education: I get to learn what is most valuable to my clients and will make the biggest impact on their time with me.

🏰 It’s an even bigger privilege to have courses take place right in our own facility @thisisprevail.

Thank you @eldoausa for making the effort, I’m looking forward to an intense and fruitful weekend 🤯

Hi everyone! Thanks for being here 💚 Persist F

Hi everyone! Thanks for being here 💚

Persist Fitness was created upon a few fundamental pillars ⬇️

1. When I know better, I do better: In this job, I am learning all the time! It’s one of my favorite things about being a coach. Sometimes I’ll change my mind, when I get new information, but I won’t ever stick to something just because “that’s the way it’s always been done.” Let’s keep evolving!

2. People first. All of my business decisions are made through the lens of “how will this impact my clients’ experience?” Serving your needs, listening to what those needs are and responding with guidance and resources is my coaching style.

3. My experience with exercise, movement and fitness is ONLY my experience. Does it inform my coaching? Of course, but so does every experience I’ve had, not just fitness related. It’s just one aspect of my coaching. Each person’s subjective experience is valuable. I’m not here to tell you how I did things for myself, I’m here to find ways to help/support/guide you, where you are.

Yuri Verkhoshansky is a super smart dude that wrote a bunch of manuals on the principles of strength and conditioning. He knows more than me 👍🏼

When you’re training, BETTER IS BETTER. And being sweaty, sore and out of breath is not always an indicator of progress.

If you have a goal, remember you must train specifically for that goal. Don’t throw spaghetti at the wall 🍝

The past 2 assessments I’ve had have gone something like this:

Me: Do you have any fitness goals you’d like support with?

Them: I want to be strong. I’d like to put on some muscle.

Me: You’ve come to the right place ☺️

GET STRONG working on a wave of deadlifts banded from the front. I wanted to address the following technical points of the deadlift:
➡️ pulling the bar in/taking the slack out of the bar
➡️ keeping the bar close as you stand up
➡️ starting and finishing chest up

This banded from the front position is not an easy place to move weight. It requires us to execute at a high technical level, or the weight just won’t go. Keeping the load moderate for a speed wave allows us to focus on doing things correctly, quickly.

There is nothing like a beautiful (and hot) day at the track. And, there is nothing like that last event, the 4x400 meter relay. Great job to @suarunning on bringing home the ‘Ship for ANOTHER YEAR!

Congrats to our Varsity GGCL 2022 LEAGUE CHAMPS and to our JV squad brining home 2nd. Our stable is deep, well done to this team.

Thank you @suarunning for having me another season 💙🤍🐶

One of the best things about my job is the people it brings me. You are all a gift in my life. Missing 2 of my clients who are now living their best life out west! @angi_harveylandholm THINKING OF YOU ♥️♥️♥️

If you’re someone who I’ve worked with in the past, but we don’t see each other often, I’m grateful we crossed paths and am always happy and proud to hear about your new adventures and successes ☺️

Working on hip extension and the back side of on of our hip mobility tool: CARS aka controlled articulated rotations.

This position is pretty tricky. It requires the individual to be able to stabilize their spine and shoulders so that their hip can rotate around their body without too many compensations. The we added 2# balls 🔥 We paired this with wide stance kettlebell sumo deadlifts to put those hamstrings to bed 💀 Mobility training is strength training.

Come lift with us, GET STRONG Crew Remote is now live ✌🏼 Link in Bio.

Read the first post, then come back here…

We, as humans, can’t afford to be strong in only one way, in only a few “right” positions, only under these specific circumstances.

We must be able to physically and neurologically handle the lives we lead. Want to increase you stress tolerance? Come see me.

What small thing can you make non-negotiable in your life?

For me, it’s walking 10 minutes a day. It can be slow AF, inside, outside, at the beginning of the day, after dinner, any time in between.

Of course, I have days I don’t get it done. Does that mean I beat myself up and walk 20 minutes the next day? Nope! We stick to the small commitment.

Start slow, start small. Once you get 2 days, then 5 days becomes easier. Next thing you know, it’s been a week, then a month and then 3 months. Now we’ve gone 6 months walking 10 minutes most days. About 1800 minutes of total walking, see how that adds up?

Movement begets movement.

What is your small, daily, non-negotiable?
