Welcome to my blog. Thanks for being here.

I like to write a lot. Mostly about powerlifting, strength training, body image + women in sport. They’re kinda my things.

If you ever have questions or want to learn more, please reach out. I would love to hear from you.

Trade Offs: You Can't Have Your Cake and Eat It Too

For every decision we make, there is an alternate decision we could have made but didn’t. When I choose to read at night, I am choosing not to watch Sex and the City. When I choose to train for 90 minutes in the arvo, I am choosing not to go to the beach. When I choose to compete in an ambitious weight class, I am choosing to forgo dessert for a few months in the lead up.

Similarly, when you make the decision to lose fat, get stronger or pursue any other health/fitness goal (or any goal!) there are trade offs that you will be required to make in order to be successful.

The problem that many people run in to, is that they are either unaware of the trade offs required of them, or they are not willing to make them, resulting in immense frustration when they think they are doing enough, but still aren’t seeing the desired amount of progress.

The solution? Read on.
