Does Pilates count as strength training? Probably not really, but they are PERFECT complements to each other! Here’s one reason why. #fitness #personaltrainer #pilates #strengthtraining by @howannamoves

I’ve watched this footage 20 times and I still do not understand what actually happened! But there was still a lot to learn from the injury. (And I’m ok!)

If you still aren’t strength training because you’re worried about doing it wrong or just don’t know where to begin, I get it — and I’m so here for you. Check the link in my bio for more details ✨

A one-minute plank is an opportunity, not a prescription! by @howannamoves

As a trainer, I’m always talking about meeting yourself where you are. Well, where I am right now is incredibly pissed off.

Exercise can feel complicated and overwhelming. My challenges are a way to solve that decision fatigue and build strength with the support of a great community. Sign up at the link in my bio!

This challenge covered everything—strength, cardio, Pilates, and conditioning. It offered flexibility when I needed it but gave me enough structure that I didn’t have to overthink anything.

I always want to exercise on weekends but never do, and then I feel bad about it. The built-in Saturday rest and Sunday cardio day made a walk in the park with my kids check all boxes.

You don’t have to track if it’s not a good idea for you, but I found using the tracker so fun and motivating! (Stickers and sparkly pens recommended.)

Going up in weight week by week and getting my lifting calluses back felt badass.

Connecting about tricky exercises, hearing how people budget time for workouts, and sharing about wins and difficulties was motivating and supportive: It made it so much easier to stick with it for the long term.
