Many people have a goal for weight loss but struggle to reach that goal. It can be hard to balance your life and needs with healthy nutrition habits. It can also be hard to know where to start when there are so many weight-loss trends and different opinions on the best weight-loss food.

​Weight loss is often portrayed as something simple - cut down on calories, carbs, or fat in your diet, get more exercise, and wait for the weight to fall off. But of course, things are rarely that simple - and for women from 18 to 80 and beyond, there are challenges and temptations everywhere.

​Your glutes are the large muscles that make up your butt. Not only do people want strong glutes because they look perky and peachy, but because they're a fundamental muscle group for a wide variety of movements. 

With a very welcome spring just starting to wake up, there's a definite pull to take the workout outdoors at the moment. And there are more benefits than simply stopping and smelling the roses. 

​The fitness world can sometimes be a pretty tricky place to spend time. That hustle and grind mentality is punishing for your body, your general health and wellbeing, and for some - even relationships. But beyond the comparisons and anxiety, there's scope to use self-compassion to not only support your fitness journey but to enhance and enrich it. Self-compassion is something they can naturally do for some people, but it's a learned skill for many women.
