How To Get Started With Strength Training

Proper Form Is Everything: Your form when performing an exercise can make the difference between mediocre and killer results. Bad form can involve many things: using momentum and “swinging” your limbs; poor posture, which can cause unnecessary stress on your muscles; and generally not being in control during the exercise. By using gradual motions, focusing on engaging the correct muscle groups, and referencing exercise diagrams, you can make sure your form is spot on! Yes, this is more work. And doing it “right” might reduce the number of reps you can do… But you’ll get to where you want much faster.

3 Hacks For Hitting Your Macros Easily

Track ahead of time If you hate tracking meals, let me ask you: when are you tracking them? Many women track after the meal is already done, but the most effective tracking happens in advance. By entering your numbers the night before, you won’t have to worry about stopping and starting throughout the day. This might sound like a small detail, but trust me when I say tracking on the go has the power to completely derail your day. That does not need to happen!

Top 3 Tips For Success With Macronutrients

Start with protein Before you even begin to approach your carbohydrate and fat numbers, lock in your protein intake first. Protein is the most direct indicator of how much lean muscle you can gain, and lean muscle is what allows you to look toned… so it makes sense to start here! Once you spend a bit of time eating the right amount of protein, you’ll likely begin to feel more full and have more energy — after that, dialing in your carbs and fats becomes MUCH easier!

Never Do This If You Want Toned Glutes

I went into the gym once and noticed something absurd:There was a woman on a StairMaster doing kickbacks.(If you’re not familiar with this exercise, it essentially involves kicking backwards and raising your leg up close to the height of your glutes)I know exactly why — she was doing this with the intent of toning her glute indent.But while I understand the motivation behind it…This is one of the silliest, most ineffective (yet oddly creative) ways I’ve ever seen to get toned glutes.Any form of cardio, whether running, StairMaster, elliptical, etc., will not increase your muscle definition.Cardio works for general weight loss, but when done in excess, it will pull from muscle stores, NOT fat stores.Adding ballet poses or swinging your legs around won’t change that fact!That’s a dangerous path that leads to working continually harder for diminishing returns, and I’ve seen way too many women fall into the trap of doing hours of cardio and tearing their bodies down from the inside out.I was one of those women.But after way too long doing things the hard way, I found a better one — one that works for every body type and means working out less while eating a more flexible diet than I ever thought I could have.Since then, I’ve used my WarriorBabe Method to help over 10,000 women build the toned body composition they want sustainably, while living a lifestyle they love…And I’ve been able to simplify the process into a plan that adapts to each woman’s body, allowing each babe to build her own vision for her body on her own terms.I’ve even adapted it to work during and post-menopause, allowing my babes to get toned at any age.If you want to see how they did it and how you can too…
