“I want to get toned”

Toning is one of the most common goals women have when they start strength training… but what does it actually mean?

In this solo episode, I’m breaking down the truth behind the toning — sharing what I thought “toned” meant when I first started training over 10 years ago, what it really means in the science, and what women actually want their body to look, feel and function like!

Expect a practical, myth-busting chat, which includes:

→ Why scale weight doesn’t tell the full story (and what does)

→ How to build muscle without getting “bulky” — including a funny story about my mum

→ Why women need body fat for health (and why the goal isn’t to lose it all)

→ The difference between visceral fat vs. subcutaneous fat (and why it matters)

→ Whether fat loss or muscle building should be your focus right now

→ How perimenopause changes the game — and why fat loss might not work like it used to

→ Why most women actually need to build more muscle, not diet harder

If you want to get more toned, you MUST listen to this pod.
