50 days ago I started dieting to lose a few pounds and some body fat. ⁣ ⁣ In that time I wound up creating a plan that works slowly but surely. It's called the 50-50 Challenge. ⁣ ⁣ The 50-50 is an accountability program based on tracking calories and macros that I help you determine. ⁣ ⁣ The 50-50 is not a meal plan. It's for people who are ready to brave the truth about habits that don't serve their goals, and are ready to make lasting changes. ⁣ ⁣ It's about learning a new kind of self-compassion with mild restriction, tolerable hunger but zero quick-fixes. No foods or food groups are off limits. Protein is prioritized. ⁣ ⁣ My results, without changing my training—I lost 6.2 pounds and 3.5% body fat. I also performed PRs in all my powerlifts plus my first ring muscle-up, ever. ⁣ ⁣ Challenge-curious? Get in touch and I'll send you The 50-50 Challenge Introduction for free. ⁣ ⁣ #yougotthis #beechwoodbells #5050challenge #garagegym #precisionnutrition #personaltrainer #protein #consistency #dedication #dietsmarternotharder

Where’s that darn bus. With @frankie.soup_ #firstdayofschool #eighthgrade ❤️🧡

Powerlifting meet numero dos was yesterday in East Stroudsberg, PA. Rookies only. #usapowerlifting⁣ ⁣ overall — + ⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⁣ ⁣ injuries = 0️⃣⁣ trips to the bathroom to poop from nerves = ⁣ ⁣ PRs = 1, but for #hitching⁣ ⁣ Compared to my first meet I did better in terms of technique, overall numbers and having good coaching, from both @cardiganmark and @chrisrose75 who gets a special mention since an injury kept her from competing alongside me, so she re-registered as my coach and it was a huge and meaningful luxury. Thanks babe! ⁣ ⁣ Even though I failed on two benches and a squat, I achieved higher numbers on the platform—weights I'd previously missed were now openers. #progress. ⁣ ⁣ Slide on over for my ⚪️⚪️⚪️ squat and bench plus my PR deadlift. Oh yeah, and my gold medal. Maybe one day I'll earn one, lol. 🥇⁣ ⁣ After all the prepping, pooping and iron hoisting, I'm looking forward to a nice, leisurely hypertrophy cycle plus more kettlebell and bodyweight action. I'll get right to it, after a long ass nap. ⁣ ⁣ #womenwhopowerlift #strongwomen #strongmoms #beechwoodbells #trueglorycrossfit ⁣#girlswhopowerlift #momswhopowerlift #squatbenchdeadlift #ipf #ipfpowerlifting

I’mma get back to snatching like these beastly babes real soon. Because I miss snatching. And I’m not sure 🤔 I ever would think that. But here we are. . . Thank you @ssinoway and @joslyneb for the beauty and #fitspiration. . . #beechwoodbells #garagegym #kettlebellsnatch #rkc #strengthandconditioning #strongwomen #strongmoms

@chrisrose75 joined me this AM in the #garagegym for a #powerlifting #trainingsesh. 🤠 We both use @cardiganmark for lifting coaching. Chris was the one who introduced me...⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ☝In the first video, Chris was coached to keep powering like a mofo all the way PAST the top of her #squat, instead of slowing her force before the lockout. Coach M likened the process to running a yellow light to make it through the intersection. We were both like, "PTSHHH..." which is the sound of our heads exploding 🤯 with lifting epiphanies. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ PS, I want to squat like Chris one day. 🥰 She is a powerhouse. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ✌ In the second video I was coached to "wedge" more effectively since my butt was popping up and the bar was swaying a little... ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Whenever I've been told to wedge before, it's gotten all abstract in my head and I have no idea what I'm doing, but this time I was cued specifically to jam my pits tight and push into the floor with my feet like cray. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I concrete cues. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Result—I hit a double at my one rep max weight, which is currently 255lbs/116kgs. ⭐️⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ (I also peed on the floor.Not shown. You can add that to your gratitude journal.)⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ #beechwoodbells #trainingpartners #deadlift #personaltrainer #womenwholift #womenwhopowerlift #strongwomen #strongmoms #IPF #unapologeticallystrong

#quoteoftheweek at #beechwoodbells.

This week it was all about the cues. ⁣ ⁣⁣ Slide 1️⃣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Inching my way toward a 200lb #squatgoal with a curious butt wiggle. 🤔 After last week's discouraging misses at 185lbs, I will take this 190lb PR. ⁣ ⁣ Slide 2️⃣⁣⁣ ⁣ A double at 185lbs. ⁣ ⁣ This was the cue from @cardiganmark ⁣ ⁣⁣ 𝐓𝐨 𝐤𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐬𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐨𝐩 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐭, 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐨𝐟 𝐫𝐮𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐲𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰 𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐢𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧.

I vacation, but I felt all sorts of out of sorts being away from my garage—the people and the iron. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ All my life I've been prone to anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. It's taken me all my 50 years to arrive at a place where I love myself and my life. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ My current cocktail of contentment = ⁣⁣ ❤️ lexapro⁣⁣ 🧡 lifting⁣⁣ low-sugar⁣⁣ high protein⁣⁣ lots of sleep⁣⁣ family⁣⁣ the #beechwoodbells community⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Without these pieces in place, my emotional landscape grows dry and dusty. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ So today I picked up where I left off. Monday = deadlift day, so...⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ The workout: ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ 1A) 5x3 deadlifts superset with—⁣⁣ 1B) 10,8,6,4,2 overhead kettlebell presses per side w/ascending weight ladder (not shown)...⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ followed by—⁣⁣ 2A) 3x5 false grip ring pull-ups⁣⁣ 2B) 3x4 (lost one rep over the week) ring dips. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I learned yet again that time off does not mean all my work goes down the tubes. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ This is true for diet too. ⚖️ When I'm in calorie restriction mode, I forgo dessert and alcohol but in Canada, I drank the gin and ate the gelato, for a whole week. I am STILL lighter than I was when I started my new-fangled 50-day diet on August 5. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ More than a week would probably result in some losses. And, this is not something I'd recommend doing too many weeks throughout the year. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ But sometimes, for appreciation and perspective alone, it's good to get away. 🤙⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ #garagegym #personaltrainer #deadlifts #kettlebells #ringsworkout #pullups #dips #presses #keepitsimple #consistency #dedication #dothework
