I KNEW all these fail vids and humble beginning clips would come in handy 😂We always think we need more time, but most of the precious time we DO have is spent overthinking if we’re “ready” or doubting ourselves enough to even try in the first place :/THIS lifetime is all you need—you just have to let yourself believe you’re capable bc you are🤍••••••#fitnessreels #fitnessjourney #growthmindset #progressoverperfection #beforeandafter by @aleesha.pt

When your summer clean-out turns into a full-blown nostalgia fest 😅🎀I’m honestly SHOOK at how they still (mostly) fit…even if the skirts are now the size of an eye patch Sooo many memories packed into one bin, and so much gratitude for the sport that helped shape me into the person I am today! Once a cheerleader, always a cheerleader (but pls don’t come for my form, I’m washed up)🫶🏼••••••#cheerleading #fitnessjourney #fitnessreels by @aleesha.pt

If you don’t run with both feet on the ground at the same time, why you only training that way? 🤔I love me some (front) squats, hip thrusts, etc for building strength, BUT they also hide imbalances almost tooo well (like when one hip sounds like microwave popcorn or one glute always forgets to clock in 😩)Training one side at a time—not just for running but for tons of other single-leg sports—is great for exposing those weaknesses, improving stability, building power, AND developing strength that actually carries over to your performance! Train for the demands of your sport, not just what you’re strongest at xx😚•••••••#running #singlelegtraining #sportsspecific #fitnessreels #unilateraltraining by @aleesha.pt

Ahhh, the good ol’ bodybuilder-to-runner pipeline😂The coolest parts about these two (almost polar opposite) fitness goals weren’t actually about stepping on stage in a show or crossing the finish line on race day!It was realizing how adaptable and pretty freaking incredible the human body can be!Give it a reason to put on muscle, and it adapts Give it a reason to run a half marathon, and it adapts again A lot of the time, we hold ourselves back and keep ourselves stuck in boxes because we stay attached to the version we are today BUT the body listens to what we tell it, and if it’s given a new challenge and some time, it’s pretty amazing what it can adapt to!You are WAY more capable than you think! You just have to give yourself a chance to find out🤍 by @aleesha.pt

First half marathon powered by a “why not” moment, carb loading, and the world’s best peer pressure/ support system 💕Can’t wait to do it all again!(Ps sorry I didn’t announce it publicly… I just wanted to see if I could make it the whole way without any embarrassing medical, emotional or gastrointestinal incidents first ☺️)•••••••#calgarymarathon #servuscalgarymarathon #centaurruns #halfmarathon #halfmarathontraining by @aleesha.pt

I absolutely love this running era we’re in lately! HOWEVER, just remember that your hot girl runs still need some strength training behind them to keep you going🤝Strength training helps runners:—>Improve power & speed—>Build muscle, tendon & bone strength which makes it easier to absorb the impact —>Reduce injury risk —>Improve stability & joint support —>Maintain better posture and form as fatigue starts to hit—>Better running economy (I.e., allowing you to run faster while using less energy)Build yourself a body that can support those km’s for the long run (literally & figuratively) 🫶🏼••••••#strengthtraining #running #runningstrength #fitnesstips by @aleesha.pt

We might know what we WANT to achieve or when something feels off, but figuring out what to actually do can feel like a full time job😭 Luckily this is what I do for a living, so I’ve gotchu 🤝Here’s a quick cheat sheet for common training goals & pain points! Let me know what else you struggle with or what I can help program around!👇🏻•••••••#fitnessreels #fitnesstips #shouldermobility #pullupprogression #glutegains by @aleesha.pt
