Lifting weights is the closest thing you’re going to get to a magic pill 💊 ✨

✨Aim for 2-4 x 30 minutes sessions of weight lifting per week!

✨Aim to eat a palm sized portion of protein with each meal

✨If you’re new to weight lifting, one session a week is a great place to start!

We have spots available in our semi private strength groups in our private studio if you’re looking for an encouraging and non intimidating place to start! 🖤🩷🖤

Hear me out 👇🏼

As humans we love a quick fix and
love black and white simple instructions. Thats why we’re drawn to 8-12 week challenges.

The problem is.. you can’t make serious progress or sustainable change in 8-12 weeks.

Usually the people promoting and selling challenges have great rigs so we automatically think that’s what we can achieve in 8-12 weeks.

Spoiler alert, your favourite fit-fluencer/coach didn’t get their rig in 12 weeks, they spent YEARS of consistently showing up in the gym building the foundation, fucking YEARS.

Why are 12 Week challenges harmful?
- Promotes extreme & unsustainable ways to achieve results and therefore perpetuates poor body image and disordered eating
- People believe and expect to obtain incredible physiques in a short period of time & therefore are unlikely to invest in proper programming
- People think there is something wrong with them when they can’t achieve x results in 12 weeks

I am TIRED of seeing these challenges STILL promoted, even by highly credible coaches.

Being honest, selling challenges is just an eeeasy way of making a shit load of money fast.

I believe that as coaches we have a duty of care and its our responsibility to enhance the quality people’s lives, to be honest about timelines and set realistic expectations- unfortunatley that shit is just not sexy or appealing.

Shoutout to all the coaches who COACH WITH INTEGRITY

“Bouncing back” postpartum? Fuck that.

Yesterday I went shopping for new clothes to fit my new body and current size. I ain’t waiting to fit back into my old clothes or feeling uncomfortable squeezing myself into old things.

I’m also in no rush to lose weight, right now I’m focused on breast feeding and fuelling that. Breast feeding hunger is out of this world and I’m listening to my body and eating A LOT.

Wow I couldn’t imagine dieting or stressing about how I look now and the added pressure that would bring.

Women are expected to and expect of themselves to go through birth, heal from that while trying to keep a tiny human alive on next to no sleep EVER aaand get back to their pre pregnancy body? Fuck off 🫶🏻 🙏 taken in Canberra, Australian Capital Territory by @julziept

What feels strong, safe and comfortable for me may not feel that way for you, and that’s normal.

Every pregnancy is different.

I’m currently experiencing a lowrisk, uncomplicated pregnancy and this post reflects my personal experience, alongside years of coaching women through strength training across many life stages.

There are no blanket “pregnancy-safe” or “pregnancy-unsafe” exercises.
 There is m individual context, symptom feedback, medical considerations and smart programming adjustments when they’re actually needed.

This post is NOT prescriptive.
 It’s here to educate, challenge outdated narratives, and empower women to trust their bodies.

Strength training during pregnancy doesn’t have to mean “stop”, “downgrade”, or “be fragile”.
It means listen, adapt, respect your body’s cues, and continue moving in ways that support you.

If you’re pregnant and strength training (or want to be), work with a qualified coach and/or healthcare provider who understands both pregnancy and lifting, not just one or the other. taken in Canberra, Australian Capital Territory by @julziept

I don’t wear crop tops too often, but having worn one the other day and been on the receiving end of lots of judgey looks (from women) I’m making a conscious effort to wear more crop tops, maybe even exclusively crop tops. I’ll also invest in more low cut pants so I can really double down on the feather ruffling ☺️🖕🏻
