Today we talk about how un-extreme extreme weight loss can be, what to do instead and why it is so important to consider your longevity in lifting when making any dieting decision.

Now throw 2020 into the mix and we’ve got quite a conundrum on our hands. Well, in today’s episode, we talk about not putting your worth, as a person, in the weight on the bar or a number on the scale. We talk about work ethic and letting that being your guiding light.

If the last few months have taught us anything, it’s that people are stronger when they stick together. Creating communities focused on a single mission or purpose is so incredibly powerful that they can’t be ignored. Today we talk about how we are expanding the Empowered by Iron/Female Strength Academy movement & share a snippet from one of our ‘Strength in Chaos’ group chats.

Talk to you in September...unless you’re a Female Strength Academy member, then we will talk to you Thursday!
