Sisters, I’m so excited to share with you one of my most favorite interviews ever! I found another fitness soul sister and she’s Holly Perkins, the author of Lift to Get Lean and the leader of Women’s Strength Nation.

Holly is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist with a degree in Exercise Physiology and Nutrition. She is a contributing writer and expert for Women’s Health, SELF, Fitness, Shape, Prevention, Men’s Health and LIVESTRONG. Holly’s mission is to empower women on a personal and spiritual level by leading them into the weight room on a journey of physical strength.    

We covered everything concerning female weight training. We talked about lifting to get lean, about seasonal training, hormones and training on your cycle, nutrition, and also how our lifestyle habits affect our body’s performance. 

HERE’S WHAT’S INSIDE THIS EPISODE:

• The key benefits of weight training for women and why lifting will get you the lean physique you desire
• How to overcome the intimidation of “bro territory” and embrace weight training
• Why HIIT and Crossfit are not for everyone and how to choose the right exercise to get in shape
• How strength training helps us optimize hormonal levels, and how they get out of balance due to lifestyle factors
• To train or not to train on your period?
• What’s the optimal nutrition for strength training and how you can use carbs as a medicine

You can visit the links below to get Holly’s tips and insights on how to fearlessly get into the weight room and kill it. And before you go, apply for the Sexyfit Street Squad at www.sexyfit.com/streetsquad. It’s going to be so much fun, I can’t wait for us to hang out!
