The Strong effect with S

Happiest Birthday shout out to Strong girl Destiny! May your day be great, and a year full of gains and PR’s 🎉🖤🖤

Monday thoughts.
Nutrition doesn’t have to be perfect.
It needs to be sustainable.
Protein. Fats. Carbs. Fibre. Real food. Some fun. Repeat.
Did you fuel for strength and performance today?

Another habit that kept me stuck:
Replacing meals with products only meant to supplement not replace.
I used to eat 1 meal per day. Thinking that my 2 protein bars and 1 protein shake and restrictive dinner were going to be the drivers of change in my journey.
Sure, I saw minor results for a second. But then. Boom. No change. For months on end! And I wondered why.
Our bodies need consistent, nourishing fuel, to perform, burn, and recover properly. I had to unlearn “the less is more” bullsh*t that was crammed down our throats … is still crammed down our throats.
Eating consistently will help keep your metabolism fired up. Keep you performing at your best. And aid in recovery. This will actually be the driver in change! We can all go HAM in the gym for an hour but without nutrition, you’re just going to be wasting your time.
It took me decades to learn this! So learn from me. Eat. Your. Food.

I hear this often, people telling me not to get “too big” or women that don’t want to get “bulky”.
Heavy lifting isn’t going to accidentally make you bulky.
Women who have a muscular ,”bulky” physique didn’t wake up that way. They worked for it-consistently,intentionally, and for a long time.
Building significant muscle takes effort. A lot of it.
So strong girls, don’t let the fear of getting “too big” keep you from getting strong.

Form check 👀

Form is very important! Why I stress the importance of form and technique…. Your risk of injury increases when you ego lift and throw form
out the window. Poor form - knees buckling. Poor form - using momentum . Poor form- back arching. All examples of poor form! If you’re unsure… send me a video! We can fix it together!
Strong form = stronger reps = muscle and strength gains!
Don’t use poor form .

Strong girl client came to me looking to fine tune her nutrition and training. She had already been on her fitness journey and done a fair amount of work before starting with Strong Effect. So we came up with a training plan, with a focus on progressive overload and timed fueling to keep that metabolism fired up and strengthen those training sessions. She has been consistent and disciplined without having to cut out anything she loves and trains even when on the road. Well done strong girl client T! #gym #transformation #coach #alberta #fortmcmurray

Currently I am not accepting new clients. If you’d like to join the waitlist, shoot me a message!
I also regret to inform that I do not accept clients for programming or 1:1 under the age of 18. When availability for team training arises I will accept under that age. Thank you so much !

Susie 🖤
