Gearing up to watch some strong ladies lift this weekend at the @usaplmaine Carrie Boudreau Big Pull-ooza so I thought I’d share some competition day nutrition tips.

This meet is in memory of Carrie, an incredibly strong Mainer who was the first woman to ever pull 4X her bodyweight. 😳 (491 @ 119)
I never has the pleasure of meeting her, but I can imagine she’s excited for this weekend, too. ❤️

“The deadlift is more functional in that it's very hard to imagine a more useful application of strength than picking heavy shit up off the ground."

Yesterday was a big deal.

In June 2025 a pelvic floor physical therapist suggested I hang up my goals of competing in CrossFit and HYROX. At that time I couldn't do any heavy barbell work or run without symptoms. She suggested the demand would be too much, and to instead channel that energy into coaching my kids.
I cried. I felt betrayed by my body. I felt like part of my identity as an athlete, that I wanted back so badly, was gone forever. I felt sorry for myself. Then I decided, respectfully, I will not be taking her medical advice.

In September I started @carolinepackarddpt connect program. I did everything I could from tracking my fiber, to focusing on breath work and down regulating my cns to corrective exercises, all of it. Consistently. This program was a game changer and gave the tools and belief I needed to get where I am today.

In January I felt ready to start taking Alpha classes @lifetime.lenexaks .

@olivia_lifts_ asked me to partner with her for @lenexaalphawars and obviously I said HECK YES.

This spring I changed my running technique from being a lifelong heel striker to now striking mid foot as a way to better manage my prolapse symptoms. I did Murph @1stphorm HQ and was able to run the two miles with no symptoms.

Yesterday, I competed with no pelvic prolapse symptoms. I navigated a whole lot of new seasons in life (moving, starting work part time again) while training towards my goal.

This post is about refusing to become a victim, it was trusting my body could relearn how to run and lift safely. It was scaling back when my ego was telling me to go harder or heavier before I was ready. While it might not look like it from the outside looking in, I put in the work to get here. Aggressive patience. I'm proud of what I have accomplished in the last year.

Team Glitter Girls ✨ got 4th!
Thank you @olivia_lifts_ for being my partner!
Thank you @stormyswhite for being an awesome coach!

Moms- I believe in you. Don't let anyone tell you you're no longer than athlete. You are strong and resilient and our bodies are amazing. ❤️ taken in Life Time Lenexa by @uplift_coaching_

🏃‍♀️Do you know about lane etiquette?

➡️Lanes 1-3 are typically for faster runners / sprint drills
➡️Lanes 4-6 are typically for joggers / steady state running
➡️Lanes 7-8 are typically for walkers

When the track is quiet I prefer to run in lane 3.
Why?
I don't know.
I love the number 3.

However, when there's other people at the track I try to follow lane etiquette to be respectful of using a shared space depending on what type of workout I'm doing that day.

What are your thoughts? Have you heard of lane etiquette before? I'm thinking of doing a beginner runner series of posts and I thought someone might find this helpful if they're just starting to do track workouts for the first time.

Just calling myself out today… and honestly, it felt really good.

As a personal trainer, I know appearance and fitness matter. People look at coaches and wonder, “Do they practice what they preach?” I completely understand that.

But I’ve realized I don’t need clients to work with me because they want a body exactly like mine. Every body is different. We can train similarly, eat similarly, and still look completely different because genetics, lifestyle, stress, hormones, history, and preferences all play a role.

Some people want a coach with a super lean physique because that’s what inspires them — and that’s okay too.

But I also believe coaching is about more than aesthetics. It’s about knowledge, connection, empathy, support, and helping people create sustainable change.

I may not be the right fit for everyone, and I’m learning that doesn’t make me less valuable as a coach.

Today’s win was showing up anyway — insecurities and all. And for the first time, working out in just a sports bra felt less like “earning confidence” and more like practicing it.
