Ep. 62: How to Get Back on Track After Vacation Without Punishing Yourself

Post-vacation guilt is real, but it doesn't have to run the show. Bri just got back from Greece and we're getting into all of it: the body image noise that showed up on the trip, what the first 48 hours home actually looked like, and how to get back into your routine without treating your body like it did something wrong. These are the exact steps she took to feel like herself again without punishing herself for enjoying her life.

Ep. 61: She Traded Diet Culture for the Weight Room- This Is What Changed for Caitlin Dowd

Most of us didn't choose diet culture. It chose us. It showed up in our mothers' voices, in the magazines we grew up reading, in the industries we worked in and the social circles we moved through. For Caitlin Dowd, it showed up in the NYC fashion industry where smallness wasn't just preferred, it was currency. This is her story. The years of wrestling with her body, the endless cycle of restriction and group fitness chaos, and the long road to finally finding freedom from the noise. In this episode, our hosts sit down with Bri's own client to talk about what it actually looks like to trade the diet culture playbook for the simplified, lifting principles (and what shifts when you stop trying to shrink and start building something real). This is the client's POV. That's exactly why it hits different-- she's just like you! We're now on YOUTUBE! ⁠Come hang!

Ep. 60: Ditch the Scale: A Beginner's Guide to Body Recomposition

If you've done the cardio, cut the calories, and still felt like your body wasn't reflecting your effort... you are not broken. You've just been playing the wrong game. This episode is your reset. We're talking body recomposition, why muscle is the actual goal, what to track instead of your weight, and the research that backs all of it up. No shrinking. No restriction spirals. Just a strategy that actually works.

Ep. 59: Why Women Should Be Doing Plyometrics (And How to Actually Start)

Have you ever said: "I'm too old to lift weights," or maybe "I can't squat because my knees hurt." This limiting belief might be holding you back from the best longevity hack. Most "athletic" training programs aren't actually building athleticism. They're just rebranded cardio and there's a big difference. In this episode, Kelsie and Bri break down why plyometrics are one of the most underused tools in women's training, why muscle power declines faster than strength as we age, and how to actually start adding dynamic movement into your program — even if you haven't jumped since high school PE. We cover: * Why power matters more than strength (still matters) for long-term physical function (and the research behind it) * The real difference between glycolytic training (OTF, F45, CrossFit) and true power training * What athleticism, strength training, and athletic bodybuilding actually mean — and how they work together * How to build toward plyometrics safely: from stomps and pogos to contrast training * Why women are at greater risk for bone loss, muscle loss, and falls — and what to do about it This one is for the woman who feels stiff, locked up, and wants to move like her body was built to. You're not too old. You just need the roadmap.

Ep. 58: Keto, Carnivore, Vegan, Paleo, and More! Ranked!

We ranked the most popular (and most ridiculous) diet rules and food protocols. From absolute pseudoscience nonsense all the way up to "okay, this one might actually not be that crazy."In this episode, Bri and Kelsie break down keto, carnivore, intermittent fasting, vegan, paleo, the blood type diet, apple cider vinegar shots, detox cleanses, clean eating, and the EWG Dirty Dozen — what each one actually gets right, where it falls apart, and what they almost ALL miss.Spoiler: what "works" for any of them is largely the same common denominator. Think you know it?We cover:→ Why the blood type diet sold millions of copies with zero clinical backing→ What ACV actually does (and doesn't do) to your body→ The real reason intermittent fasting is especially risky for women→ Why keto works against you if your goal is to build muscle→ The Dirty Dozen list and why toxicologists push back on it→ What clean eating culture has to do with orthorexia→ The unsexy, no-brand-name version of what actually worksStrong, fed, and not spiraling. That's the goal. We're now on YOUTUBE! ⁠Come hang!
