In the Inspire Fitness program, we have a motto- NEVER MISS A MONDAY! Here is why this concept can be helpful for you on YOUR fitness journey. 1. It helps you set the tone for the week. It signals a commitment to health and fitness right from the start.2. It helps you Build Momentum. A good workout on Monday can create momentum, making it easier to stay consistent with fitness goals throughout the week.3. It can help you Overcome Procrastination.  Starting the week with exercise helps combat the tendency to procrastinate. It reduces the likelihood of postponing workouts to later in the week.4. It Builds Routine & Habits.  Making Monday workouts a non-negotiable part of your schedule helps establish a routine, which is crucial for consistency and habit formation.5. It provides a Psychological Boost. Completing a workout on Monday can provide a sense of accomplishment and boost confidence, setting a positive psychological tone for tackling other weekly challenges.6. It can help Counteract Weekend Indulgences. For many, weekends can involve less healthy eating and less activity. A Monday workout helps reset and refocus on health goals after the weekend.7. It Establishes Accountability. Having a fixed point in the week to exercise adds an element of accountability. If Monday is always a workout day, it becomes a consistent anchor in your fitness routine.If you re looking for support on YOUR fitness journey, I welcome you to join us!

Lifting weights is one of the BEST things you can do as a woman over the age of 40. The benefits are MANY & include: improved muscle mass & strength, stronger bones, improved metabolism, better joint health, improved hormonal balance, improved mental health, better functional fitness & lower risk of injury; NOT to mention better fitting clothes, more muscle definition, increased confidence & improved fat loss. If you are a woman over the age of 40 who is not currently lifting, I welcome you to join us in the Beginner Bootcamp. We start SOON!

Did you have an indulgent Holiday Weekend? If so, you may have seen the scale take a jump. But- before you panic. Consider that this may just be a temporary fluid fluctuation. ust because the scale moves, doesn’t mean you are gaining or losing fat. Most fluctuations on the scale are short term & can be caused by the following: Dietary Changes- Consuming high-sodium foods, large meals, or indulging in high-calorie treats can cause temporary weight gain due to water retention and digestion processes.Hydration Levels- The body’s water content can fluctuate significantly. Dehydration can lead to a temporary decrease in weight, while excess fluid retention, which can occur due to hormonal changes, high sodium intake, or certain medications, can cause weight to rise.Hormonal Changes-Hormonal fluctuations, such as those during the menstrual cycle, can lead to temporary water retention and bloating. Many women may experience weight gain in the days leading up to & during their periods.Exercise and Physical Activity- Regular physical activity can lead to temporary weight gain due to muscle inflammation and repair processes. Illness or Infection- When the body fights off an illness or infection, it can lead to weight fluctuations. Fever, inflammation, and fluid loss can all affect the number on the scale.Medications- Some medications may lead to weight fluctuations as a side effect. This can include weight gain or loss, depending on the medication.Menstrual Cycle- As previously mentioned, hormonal changes during the menstrual cycle can result in temporary weight changes, primarily due to water retention and appetite shifts.Remember- Fluctuations on the scale are normal and part of daily life. For most women, these fluctuations are temporary and do not necessarily reflect meaningful changes in body fat. This is why I recommend women use the scale as just ONE measure of progress. And when doing so- focus on long-term trends rather than day-to-day variations. Using other measures of progress such as taking progress pictures & measurements & monitoring how your clothes are fitting can be a better indicator of your progress.Visit inspirehw.com for fitness & nutrition services.Follow me on IG: https://www.instagram.com/fit.nutritionist?igsh=MTJqZXhjODR2ZzduaA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr
