In this episode, Caleigh and Sara dive into how AI is showing up in fitness, training decisions, and everyday health — whether we like it or not. We break down how artificial intelligence can actually be useful for things like programming workouts, adjusting training based on soreness, and making sense of data, without handing over all your common sense to a robot.

We talk about where AI helps and where it absolutely doesn’t, why context still matters more than any algorithm, and how knowing what questions to ask is just as important as the answers you get. We also unpack the growing fear around AI replacing jobs, what this means for trainers and coaches, and why adapting beats pretending this isn’t happening.

Along the way, we get into the risks of over-reliance, the difference between guidance and outsourcing your brain, and why the human side of coaching — judgment, experience, and accountability — still can’t be automated. This episode isn’t about hype or panic; it’s about using new tools wisely, staying critical, and remembering that your body isn’t a spreadsheet.

This week on Nacho Fitness Coach, Caleigh and Sara tackle the growing trend of hormone-focused fitness advice and the way women are being sold complexity disguised as empowerment. We break down cycle syncing, menopause protocols, and “hormone fixes,” and explain why none of them replace the basics. We talk about how fear-based marketing makes women feel broken, why simplicity actually works at every stage of life, and how exercise, nutrition, protein, fiber, and movement still matter—no matter your age or hormones. If fitness feels confusing or expensive, this episode is your reminder that you don’t need a special program to take care of your body.Connect with us on social media!

In this episode on Nacho Fitness Coach, Caleigh and Sara hit a big milestone—three years of podcasting together. We take some time to reflect on how this whole thing started, the many directions it’s gone, and the countless laughs along the way. We ramble (as usual), reminisce, and talk about the small things that somehow turned into something pretty meaningful. We also want to say a huge thank you to everyone who’s tuned in, stuck around, shared the show, or told us they listen while walking, lifting, or laying on the floor questioning their life choices. We appreciate you more than you know, and we’re excited to keep doing this with you.

This week on Nacho Fitness Coach, Caleigh and Sara dive into what was supposed to be a simple, wholesome experiment that somehow turned into a full-blown lifestyle disruption: raising meat chickens. Caleigh walks us through how a few innocent chicks quickly became a daily responsibility, an emotional rollercoaster, and a crash course in “oh wow, this is actually happening.”

We laugh (a lot) about the things no one tells you when you decide to raise your own food, while also getting real about discomfort, responsibility, and what it means to opt out of convenience—even when you wildly underestimate what you’re signing up for. Somehow, this ridiculous chicken story turns into a bigger conversation about intentional choices, modern detachment from food, and doing hard things without romanticizing them.

It’s chaotic, uncomfortable, unexpectedly thoughtful, and proof that sometimes the lesson shows up disguised as meat birds.

In this episode, Caleigh and Sara get real about the mental load of “being healthy” and why modern wellness can feel like a full-time job. We talk about how tracking everything (sleep, steps, water, HRV, supplements, macros, deep sleep percentages, you name it) can turn into stress instead of support, and how the constant stream of conflicting fitness advice makes it even harder to know what actually matters.

We also dig into the difference between helpful structure and neurotic optimization, why “just start with a 20-minute walk” is both valid and kind of wild in today’s sedentary world, and how we’re trying to simplify: quality food, movement, water, sleep… and letting the rest be optional. Plus: a mini rant about recycling rules, sleep trackers that roast you daily, and the holy grail of routines that don’t require you to become a robot.

This week on Nacho Fitness Coach, Caleigh and Sara test whether cottage cheese deserves its viral, high-protein glow-up or if the internet has officially gone too far. We taste our way through cottage cheese pizza bowls, ranch dip, chocolate pudding, and a surprisingly legit strawberry “ice cream,” all with zero practice runs and very honest reactions. We talk texture issues, protein hacks, what actually tastes good, and whether any of these swaps are worth making in real life. If you’ve been side-eyeing cottage cheese all over your feed and wondering if it’s genius or garbage, this episode finds out so you don’t have to.

This mid-season episode of Nacho Fitness Coach features Kathy Barron, Founder and Editor-in-Chief of Women Who Podcast Magazine and host of the Women Who Sarcast podcast, joining us to talk about one of our favorite uncomfortable topics: fitness cults.

We get into how certain fitness programs, brands, and “communities” start out motivational and somehow end up requiring unwavering loyalty, strict rules, and a suspicious lack of questions. Totally normal stuff. We talk about hype culture, influencer authority, and how fitness can quietly shift from something you do into something you’re expected to believe.

As always, there are side tangents, sarcasm, and a healthy amount of unserious commentary—but the point still lands: fitness should support your life, not become your personality. And if your workout plan feels more like a belief system than a tool…well. You’re not wrong to think that’s kinda weird.

This week on Nacho Fitness Coach, Caleigh and Sara sit down with Joy and Nathan Monteith, the creators of the Podbeat app, to talk about what happens when podcasts and workouts collide.

We dive into the story behind Podbeat, including how the idea was born out of a real-life challenge and turned into a tool that helps people stay motivated, keep pace, and actually enjoy movement. We talk about why podcasts usually get left out of workouts, how rhythm and beats can change your effort level, and why fitness doesn’t have to be intense, miserable, or complicated to count.

As always, the conversation includes plenty of side comments, laughs, and honesty about what movement looks like in real life. If you’ve ever struggled to stay motivated during workouts—or thought podcasts and exercise just don’t mix—this episode might change your mind.

This week on Nacho Fitness Coach, Caleigh and Sara dive into the idea of “death by 1,000 papercuts” and how the tiniest daily choices can quietly shape your energy, your mood, and your health. We break down the viral wellness concept from Higher Up Wellness and talk about why so many of us feel exhausted, foggy, or stuck even when nothing “big” is wrong.

From skipped walks to chaotic sleep to the invisible drain of everyday habits, we explore how those papercuts add up—and more importantly, how small, realistic changes can start healing them. Of course, it wouldn’t be an episode without tangents, including Caleigh’s nose crisis, butt compliments, fashion trends we refuse to follow, and a full roast of Nebraska aesthetic pressures.

If you’ve felt tired for so long that it started to feel normal, or you’re ready to make progress without overhauling your entire life, this episode is a nudge back toward taking care of future-you—one tiny habit at a time.

This week on Nacho Fitness Coach, we’re talking about weighted vests — or more accurately, the internet’s obsession with convincing everyone they need one. We break down what these things actually do, why they’ve suddenly become the new personality trait on TikTok, and whether strapping 20 extra pounds to your body is helping you reach your goals… or just helping influencers sell gear.

Sara brings the facts (and a rant, obviously), explaining why running already gives your joints 12–15 times your bodyweight and maybe—just maybe—you don’t need to toss a vest on top of that. Meanwhile, Caleigh discovers that the pockets are perfect for snacks, which is honestly the strongest argument for buying one.

We dig into marketing vs. reality, strength training vs. shortcuts, and why people will do absolutely anything except lift heavy weights. If you’ve ever Googled “weighted vest benefits” after seeing a hot girl jog with one, this episode is for you.

Moral of the story? If TikTok told you to do it… maybe double-check with two tired moms and a microphone first.
