Spent way too much of my life wishing my legs were smaller just to grow up and see how much weight I could lift with them.

Turns out I was built for this shit. 🤝

Anyway, where are my fellow sturdy girls at? by @stuffangellifts

I’m 30 years old and still taking a sport I pay to participate in way too fucking seriously.

I’m competitive, a little delusional, and somehow still convinced I’m one good training cycle away from being really good at this shit.

Anyway, if you’re also an average CrossFitter with a completely unreasonable level of commitment to your hobby, we’ll probably get along. by @stuffangellifts

We can’t wear shorts without being sexualized.

We can’t compete without our bodies becoming the conversation.

We can’t speak up without being called dramatic.

And when something terrible happens to a woman, somehow the conversation always finds its way back to what she did, what she wore, or why she wasn’t careful enough.

This isn’t about one comedian, one commercial, or one headline.

It’s about the pattern.

And I’m so fucking tired of it. by @stuffangellifts

Some of us were just born to be the designated heavy lifters of the friend group. 🤝

Big legs, strong backs, and a lifetime of being asked to help move furniture.

Sturdy girls, you’re in good company here. 🫶 by @stuffangellifts

I can squat 1.5x my bodyweight but apparently a laundry basket and a flight of stairs is where I meet my match.

Boarisch Battle 2026 🇩🇪🔥

A little bit of lifting, a little bit of gymnastics, a lot of questionable facial expressions.

Another competition in the books and another reminder of why I love this sport so damn much.

Show up, lift heavy things, suffer a little, make some memories, and do it all over again.

Wouldn’t have it any other way. 🫶🏼 by @stuffangellifts

I spent almost all of my 20s doing CrossFit.

I learned how to lift heavy shit.
I competed. I coached. I failed skills over and over and came back the next day to try them again.

I watched weights that used to feel impossible become warm-up weights. I did things I genuinely never thought my body would be capable of doing.

And somewhere between all the PRs, missed lifts, ripped hands, competitions and “one more try”s, I became a much stronger version of the girl who started.

So I’m not really sad about leaving my 20s.

They taught me how strong I am.

Now my 30s get to find out how far I can take it.

30 today. Let’s go do some cooler shit. by @stuffangellifts
