Hi, I’m Brooke! 👋 I live in Maryland with my husband, Chris, our two kiddos (Liam & Lucy), and our mastiff, Beau.

I’m a certified trainer + nutritionist and a former spin instructor. I’ve helped 300+ women build strength, eat MORE (yes, more), lose the weight FOR GOOD, and ditch the perfectionist mindset. I left my 9-5 in 2017, said bye to cardio-only workouts, and now I coach women 40+ who run the show at work and at home through perimenopause, menopause, and GLP-1s. My job is to help you go after your goals and build a body that feels strong and confident.

I’m also a sauvy b girlie, a tattoo lover, a golf newbie ⛳, and someone who loves a free weekend with zero plans.

If you’re here because you’re tired of diets, cardio, and restriction, you’re in the right place. I share what actually works for women 40+. Progress over perfection, always. So follow along, I got you 💪

Now tell me about you, queen!! Where do you live? What’s the best concert you’ve ever been to?? 🎸 (PS: I’m seeing Smashing Pumpkins live in 2 weeks and I’m so pumped! This will be my 4th time!) by @mrsbjohnson

I used to hop from program to program…a new workout every few weeks, macros that changed depending on whoever I followed that month, hoping something would finally stick. It never did. Because none of it was actually built on anything. I was never consistent, I couldn’t stay on the plan longer than a few weeks and I always lost momentum.

That’s exactly why I built something different. As a certified personal trainer and PN1-certified nutrition coach with over a decade in this industry, I designed a 12-week program that combines strength, conditioning, and nutrition. And not because it’s trending, but because the science backs every piece of it. No guesswork. No vibes. Just a system designed to actually work, together.

With so many new faces here, it felt like the right time to reintroduce myself. 💙

This photo holds 13 years between the woman I was… and the person I’ve become.

The woman on the left was doing her best but girl was RUNNING ON EMPTY.

She said yes to everyone and everything, and put herself dead last on the list.
She called it “being a good friend/wife/employee,” but really she was just barely holding it together.
Food and wine were how she coped with feelings she didn’t have time to actually feel.

And under that smile? She had no idea who she was outside of taking care of everyone else.

She wanted to feel confident in her body, but every “solution” contradicted the last one.
Cut carbs. Do more cardio. Eat clean. Just be consistent.
So she bounced between all of it and landed in the same spot every time — tired, defeated, and disconnected from her own body.

There was no rock bottom, no dramatic before-and-after moment.
Just a quiet realization that she was done breaking promises to herself.
So she started small. One habit. One choice. One rep at a time.

And those small choices compounded into a completely different life.

She got stronger. Steadier. More herself than she’s ever been.
She stopped chasing “skinny” and started building strength, confidence, and a nervous system that isn’t in a constant state of survival mode.

She learned that putting herself first isn’t selfish — it’s what let her show up fully for everyone else too.

That’s the woman BODY by Brooke was built for. Not the woman who wants a quick fix, but the woman who’s ready to stop starting over every Monday.

If that’s you, comment “CHANGE” and let’s talk about what’s possible. 💙 by @mrsbjohnson

“I’ve tried everything” is sometimes the story we tell so we don’t have to look at what’s actually going on. The weekend habits. The “I’ll start Monday.” The stress eating, the exhaustion, the don’t know where to start.

Because facing it feels uncomfortable. 

But that discomfort is where the growth is. 

You don’t need another diet. You need a plan that fits YOUR life, and someone in your corner who’ll tell you the truth with love. 🤍

Progress, not perfection. Always. by @mrsbjohnson

Meet BBB Graduate L 

She watched another BBB client around her age transform and thought, “If she can do it, why not me?”

Here’s the thing: L was already working out every day. Effort was never the problem.

What was holding her back:
👉 Picky eating. (“I eat like a 5 year old.” Her words, not mine 😂😂)
👉 Hitting her 50s and dealing with everything that comes with aging
👉 Lots of movement but no real direction

So we built a plan around HER:
✔️ Dedicated full-body strength days built for her goals
✔️ She kept the group fitness classes she loves, because BBB should be part of your life, not run it
✔️ Nutrition coaching that met her where she was, one veggie at a time

The results 👇
- She eats VEGETABLES now, and sends photo evidence. She even made her husband witness a purple carrot so it was “on record” 💜
- Push-ups from her toes
- Smaller pants
- Lost body fat while keeping and building muscle

In her words:
“I have seen more progress in the last 12 weeks than in the last 4 years… I want to keep going.”

So proud of you, L 👏

If you’re 40+, already doing all the things, and still not seeing it change, it’s not you. It’s the plan.

This is your Monday evening reminder… 

If today on your “new plan” left you starving, cranky, and already dreading how you’ll survive the rest of the week, that’s your sign. Not to try harder. To stop.

A plan that only works if you have to hate life then it isn’t a plan. It’s the start of try something new next week, rinse and repeat.

At BBB we fuel you (yes, carbs included), start with your mindset, and build habits you can actually live with. No perfection required, ice cream and date nights are still on the table.

1996 ➡️ 2026

36 years ago, my dad took my sister and I to our first concert. Nosebleed section but non the less, I still remember The Smashing Pumpkins walking on the stage. After the show, the only SP shirts left for purchase was an XL that swallowed my twiggy 14 year old frame. 

High school. College. Apartments. Growing up, starting a family, moving twice. Somehow, that tee survived it all.

Yesterday, someone stopped me at the concert and asked where I got my shirt.
I smiled and said, “1996.” 

“Thirty-Three” used to be just a melody I liked. Hearing it live yesterday was grounding. It’s a song about survival, letting go of old pain, and finding joy in ordinary moments. Corgan has said he wrote it during a peaceful moment at home, finally believing a stable, happy life was possible.

Thirty years later, I get it. 🤍

“And for a moment I lose myself / Wrapped up in the pleasures of the world / I’ve journeyed here and there and back again / But in the same old haunts, I still find my friends / Mysteries not ready to reveal, sympathies I’m ready to return.” taken in CFG Bank Arena by @mrsbjohnson
