I hate this picture. 

it’s a few years ago; i am so far out of shape from where i used to be; and where i am now. It’s a great reminder of how easy it is to just slide. My body hurt, i was carrying at least an extra 40 pounds - being pregnant and having kids really took a number on me. More than i expected-  physically AND mentally. I wasn’t in a good space. 

Now? I’m consistent. I work out at least 4 days a week and eat well 85% of the time, I’m more vocal about what i need and want, and more selfish in taking time to take care of myself; and it’s only bringing positive impacts to my home and myself. My headspace is clear, i can move again; i eat to eat not to fill any void, and we’re taking each day as another day to show up.

And that’s 325 kids

This week was completely outside my normal. 

I had a heavy work week. I had to go to the office three days in a row - and I’ve been remote for over 10 years!  Me from 15 years ago would’ve been like “mint, only three days?” Current me? Totally smoked. 

I thrive in consistency and routine, and change in that is tough. 

I didn’t train as much as i would have liked this week, 
i didn’t sleep as well, 
i didn’t eat what i usually eat, 
Dan didn’t feel well, 
one of the kids lost a tooth, 
my fezzie bear was a nut cause HIS routine changed 

Needless to say, i had low expectations going into the garage this morning 

325 pounds later 

You can do whatever it is you put your mind to.

Don’t marry or have babies with a loser. 

Not everyday is perfect, but every day with you and our boys is the best day of my life. 

Thank you for showing them how to be strong, capable, hardworking, reliable. Thank you for teaching them to do the sports things, and the workout things, and thank you for being the hammer when i can’t. And thanks for listening when they need a reprieve from stern daddy and need fun daddy. And thank you for always getting nice cream sandwiches even when we’re not eating junk food.

Big changes are here, and we couldn’t be more excited for this next chapter. ✨

Fitness has always been about more than just a workout plan—it’s about the foundation beneath it. As we officially roll out our brand re-fresh, we are anchoring everything we do in four core pillars:

🔹 Family First: Creating an environment where you feel supported, safe, and treated like family from day one.
🔹 Strength Training: Building resilient, capable bodies designed for longevity and everyday life.
🔹 Communication: Total transparency, active listening, and customized coaching tailored to you.
🔹 Community & Education: Surrounding yourself with driven people while understanding the why behind every movement.

To keep our coaching standard remarkably high and personal, we are officially taking on just 5 new coaching clients in the Massapequa area for this new phase.

Ready to train with purpose? Drop “READY” in the comments below or shoot us a DM to secure your spot. Let’s get to work! 🦾

Real men aren’t afraid of strong women

They encourage them; support them; 

Put up with their nonsense.

No fluff. Just strength. 💪🔥

Most people spend months in the gym spinning their wheels because they lack structure, progressive overload, and a real plan.

I’m officially opening my schedule to take on 5 new 1-on-1 strength coaching clients.

Whether your goal is to add serious pounds to your main lifts, build a denser physique, or finally feel confident in your own skin, we are going to map out the exact blueprint to get you there.

🎯 What you get: Custom programming, form breakdowns, and direct accountability.

⏰ Spots Available: 5 / 5

How to claim your spot:

1. Comment “STRENGTH” below ⬇️

2. Or shoot me a DM with “5 SPOTS” and let’s talk goals.

Let’s get to work. 🚀
