🏆 2026 Summer Glow Up Challenge Winner 🏆

When most people think of a transformation, they only look at the number on the scale.

This is exactly why I teach body recomposition.

Over the last 12 weeks, our challenge winner trusted the process, stayed consistent, and focused on building strength instead of chasing a lower number.

Starting Stats-
• Weight: 136.4 lbs
• Body Fat: 27.6%
• Lean Mass: 98.75 lbs

🔥 Final Stats-
• Weight: 135.6 lbs
• Body Fat: 24.4%
• Lean Mass: 102.51 lbs

Total Change:
• ⬇️ 3.2% body fat
• ⬆️ 3.76 lbs lean muscle
• Completely changed her body composition

The scale only moved 0.8 lbs, but her body tells a completely different story.

This is what happens when you stop focusing solely on weight loss and start focusing on building muscle, reducing body fat, and staying consistent.

Congratulations to our 2026 Summer Glow Up Challenge Winner, @laverovv18 ! 🏆

Your dedication, consistency, and commitment to the process truly stood out. You earned every bit of this transformation.

As your prize, you may choose:
💵 $300 Cash

Please help me congratulate Veronica in the comments! 👏🔥

If growing your glutes has been a goal but you haven’t really known what to change, this is for you.

I created the Build a Better Booty Challenge to take the guesswork out of it. For 12 weeks we’re focusing on training with intention, progressive overload, eating enough to support growth and actually staying consistent long enough to see a difference.

We start September 21 and I already have a great group of women joining me, but there’s still time to get in.

12 weeks | 100% online | $299

You don’t have to be advanced. You just have to be ready to put in the work.

DM me BOOTY to join.

🍑 IT’S OFFICIAL — BUILD A BETTER BOOTY IS HERE.

I’ve spent years training glutes — on myself and with my clients — and if there’s one thing I know, it’s this:

Growing your glutes takes more than random booty workouts.

It takes the right training.
Progressive overload.
Proper nutrition.
Consistency.
And TIME.

So I created something that brings all of that together. 💎

BUILT BY GEM presents:
🍑 BUILD A BETTER BOOTY
12-Week Glute Growth Challenge

For 12 weeks, we’re going to TRAIN, EAT and PROGRESS with one goal in mind:

Building stronger, fuller, more developed glutes. 🍑

What’s included:

🍑 3 glute-focused workouts per week
🏋️ 12 weeks of progressive programming
🎥 Exercise demonstrations
🥗 Nutrition + protein guidance
📏 Measurements & progress tracking
📲 Weekly check-ins + accountability
👯 Private challenge community
🏆 Final challenge + prizes

And because this is the FIRST EVER Build a Better Booty group, I’m opening a limited number of Founding Member spots for $249.

Once Early Bird enrollment closes → $299

No 30-day promises.
No random workouts.
No guessing.

We’re giving your body 12 weeks to BUILD.

Ready? 🍑

DM me “BOOTY” to claim your Early Bird spot.

Let’s Build a Better Booty. 💎

NO filter, NO makeup 💄 Challenge
-
Dear me,

I’m sorry it took me so long to see you this way.

For all the years I picked you apart, compared you, covered you up, tried to fix you, and convinced myself that you needed to look different before you were worthy of feeling beautiful.

Today I looked at this picture and didn’t immediately search for something to change.

I saw my skin.
My lines.
My freckles.
My imperfections.
My face.

And I liked her.

Not because she’s perfect.
Not because she looks younger.
Not because of a filter, makeup, or anyone else’s validation.

Because she looks like me.

At 34, I think I’m finally learning that feeling beautiful and being comfortable in my own skin are two completely different things. I’ve had days when I felt beautiful before, but being able to simply exist as myself without feeling like I need to correct something? That feels different.

So this is my little love letter to the woman in this picture.

I’m sorry I was so hard on you.

I’m sorry I spent so much time looking for your flaws instead of appreciating everything you’ve carried me through.

And I promise that from here on out, I’m going to be a little softer with you.

You deserve that.

Finally comfortable in my own skin. 🤎

🌟 CLIENT SPOTLIGHT 🌟
@mssarmient000 Please give my girl Liz some love 💕
We’ve been working together now for 8 months
Liz started with me in January of this year and weighed 179lbs and has lost 33lbs weighing 146lbs at 5’5” her goal was to be 150lbs and she has passed that and is still continuing to work towards building lean muscle mass as she continues to follow my nutrition guidance and training with me 2 times a week and on her own 2 other days along with steady cardio. These results did not happen overnight but they happened with patience, hard work and dedication. The type of client that listens and applies and I’m so so proud of her and proud to be by her side as we keep working on her new goals she keeps throwing at me. Liz it’s been such a pleasure working with you and watching you blossom from our first day meeting to the unstoppable baddie! taken in South Bay Strength Company by @gem.body

“Lifting weights will make you bulky.”
Let’s clear this up once and for all…

That doesn’t happen by accident.

Building a “bulky” physique takes:
• Years of intentional training
• Eating in a calorie surplus consistently
• Specific programming focused on size
• And often… genetics + extreme discipline

What lifting weights actually does for most women:
✨ Creates a toned, sculpted look
✨ Boosts metabolism (so you burn more even at rest)
✨ Builds confidence inside AND outside the gym
✨ Helps you lose fat while keeping your shape

Cardio alone won’t give you that “tight” look most women want.
That comes from building muscle underneath.

I get it—walking into the gym can feel intimidating.
Not knowing what to do? Even worse.

That’s where I come in 🤍

If you’ve been:
• Stuck doing the same workouts with no results
• Afraid of lifting because you don’t want to “get big”
• Ready to actually feel confident in your body…

Message me “READY” and I’ll help you get started with a plan that fits YOU.

You don’t need to be perfect. You just need to start taken in South Bay Strength Company by @gem.body

2016 throwback.
Looking back, I was living a life no one would’ve ever guessed. I had stepped away from bodybuilding for two years and was deep in the desert, living a quiet country life with my pups and horses.

That season was one of the hardest mentally. I was lost, depressed, and in a relationship that stripped me of my identity. I was isolated from family and friends, and the only real joy I felt came from my daughter and my animals.

You’d never know it from the photos — I only took pictures in the rare moments I felt a little happiness.

I’m grateful I survived those years. It changed me, broke me, and ultimately shaped me. Only a few know this part of my story, but sharing it now reminds me how far I’ve come and how much I’ve grown as a woman. Thanks ig for this #2016throwback trend by @gem.body

A note to myself: Chapter ‘26

In the last three years, I’ve grown in ways that aren’t always loud or visible—but they’re undeniable.

I’ve learned how to stand on my own feet without hardening my heart. I’ve learned that softness is not weakness, and that boundaries are not cruelty. I no longer abandon myself to keep the peace, and I no longer shrink to make others comfortable.

I’ve become more disciplined—not just in what I do, but in what I tolerate. I choose my energy more carefully now. I pause before reacting. I listen to my intuition instead of questioning it. I trust myself in rooms where I once felt I had to prove something.

I’ve learned how to be a calmer, more grounded woman—even when life feels heavy. I’ve learned how to lead by example, especially for my child, showing her what self-respect, consistency, and emotional regulation look like in real time.

I’ve made peace with the fact that growth doesn’t mean perfection. It means accountability. It means course-correcting without self-punishment. It means showing up again, even after disappointment.

I’ve stepped into my femininity more fully—not as performance, but as embodiment. I take up space now. I allow myself to be seen. I allow myself to want more without guilt.

Three years ago, I was surviving.
Today, I am becoming.

And I’m proud of the woman who kept going—even when no one clapped, even when it was lonely, even when it was uncomfortable.

This version of me is earned.
And she’s just getting started.
