Don’t Overcomplicate It—Start with the Basics
Let’s Talk About the Basics… 📋
Lately, I’ve been hearing a lot of this:
"I’m tired, I’m gaining weight, I feel weak…"
And then, the next thing I get asked is for an elaborate plan—macros, calorie-counting, fad diets. But hold up… do you have the basics down yet? 👀
Because here’s the thing: if you haven’t nailed the basics, jumping into an extreme change or restrictive diet won’t lead to lasting results. It’s not sustainable. So before you start planning, ask yourself:
- Are you drinking enough water?
- Are you getting quality sleep?
- Are you limiting screen time?
- Are you moving your body daily?
- Are you eating enough to fuel your day?
Admittedly, I’ve been working extra hard lately, and I noticed I was feeling off too. So, I asked myself these same questions, and the answers were a lot of NOs. 🤷♀️
So, my goal this week? Get back to the basics. Sometimes, life gets crazy, and these simple things slip away. Don’t feel bad if that’s where you are right now. Just know it’s a fresh week, and we get to reset.
Let’s do it together! 🙌

- My dog is getting fixed tomorrow, so I’m prepping for a week of puppy care. Wish me luck!
- I caught some amazing bands at ACL this weekend—Foster the People & Blink 182 rocked! 🎸
- I was a bit under the weather this week, so I’ve been in and out of the doctor’s office trying to figure out what's going on (Allergies? Exhaustion? Who knows 🤷♀️). But it’s a reminder to listen to your body and adjust when you need to. I’ve been doing movements that feel good and dialing back the intensity when necessary. Balance is key!

Pull-up Revolution Student WINS
Will YOU be the next success story?!
Sarah wanted to get her pull-up so badly and she was trying and trying but it wasn’t happening. She was showing up to her workouts and doing what she thought would get her chin above the bar, but nada...
Even when you show up consistently you have to be doing the right things to get your body ready for doing a pull-up. It is a dynamic whole body movement that requires the whole body (and the mind) to work together.
Sarah did the tested & proven Pull-Up Revolution workouts and it started to come together. Then, in less than one week she got up there ALL THE WAY UP to her FIRST PULL-UP!!! It all came together for her!
She stopped wasting time on workouts that didn’t get her where she wanted to be. She went for this tested proven system that has given several hundred women that sweet first Pull-Up! And she crushed it! Let’s go Sarah!!!
Tania is a badass. She wanted to do her first SPARTAN Race but she knew that she needed help building her upper body strength and improving her mobility. She didn’t know how do to this on her own in a way that would be effective and also help her to not get injured on the course.
She found Pull-up Revolution, a pull-up program for women that works on STRENGTH, STABILTY and MOBILITY!!! and she got there!!! She did her first Spartan and just look at her shining.
You will get pull-ups in Pull-Up Revolution AND it gets you ready to do all the hard and badass things you want to do in your life!
Let’s go!!!
