In today’s episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on a conversation we don’t have enough in fitness:

👉 Why chasing extreme leanness might not be the flex you think it is.

I’ll share my personal experience, from single-digit body fat in my 20s to a more balanced approach in my 30s, and why I no longer chase shredded at all costs.

I'll unpack:

💭 How my training and lifestyle priorities have evolved⚖️ The real trade-offs of being ultra lean📱 The pressure to “look the part” as a coach — and why I reject it❓The question you need to ask: are your goals actually yours?

If you’ve ever felt like your progress doesn’t count unless you’re shredded… or like you’re constantly trying to live up to an image that doesn’t suit your life anymore, this one’s for you.
