Hey, hey, !!

Is it spring or nah?! Lol, It done snowed here a couple days ago. Last week, we had some 70-degree days. Cray! 

I have one last ski weekend this week - heading to Brighton Ski Resort tomorrow. The snow is still snowing up in the mountains. My favorite ski resort (Brighton) got 8 inches! Whoop! It might be the last real snow. Maybe?🤔 ☃️ Who knows! I love it either way.

Speaking of Brighton Ski Resort, if you ever want to learn how to ski, live here, or are coming for vacation, they have an amazing learn-to-ski price lift ticket situation. 10/10 recommend!! It's how I learned to ski better after a few years hiatus. 

If my memory serves me well, I spent about 3 or 4 weekend skiing on the mountain's beginner side!

Quick back story... I had one lesson 1 day back in 2018 and one on my own, and I didn't ski again until 3 years later. Beginner all over again! 😝 I embraced the such because easy is earned! The learner ski lift ticket was just what I needed! 

Anywho, I hope your April is off to a good start. Dropping in with Marches recap!

If you are new here, Welcome! I send this monthly recap of the most valuable posts that my STRONG community has found helpful on the Gram!

My top 5 pieces of content for March! I have two honorable mentions as well. 

1 - Your body will not have visible muscle unless you do a few things!

6 Essential factors that contribute to strength and muscle.

The muscle will not show up if you aren't doing the right things!

2 - How to build a High Protein Sammie! 🥪

Breaking it all down in the post on how to build your sandwich STRONG!

And a love note 💗 :

Eat a sandwich, sis, if you want a sandwich on BREAD! Okay?! 

Bread can be part of a well-balanced diet!⁣ 

Bread is not evil or fattening; too many calories are fattening. ⁣

⁣3 -Three Of The Biggest Mistakes I See Women Making When Trying To Build Muscle!

Right off the bat, one of the top reasons is being underfed. Always in diet mode, either unintentionally or intentionally.

Sis, you gotta eat if you want to build muscle. Eat STRONG. You have to be eating at maintenance, at the least!!

4 - The look you're hoping to achieve...

As you can see this post is of course similar to the above post.

Gaining mucle tone which is building muscle... will require you to stop 🛑 chasing fat/weight loss! It’s not more cutting. It’s more muscle!

Chasing fat loss, thinking you’ll look toned after your cut, but you don’t have enough muscle yet!⁣

5 - When I See Other Women In The Gym Lifting The Heavy Things Not Fearing the Bulk!

One thing about women who want to be strong and have visible muscle... 
 
We aren't worried about getting too big because we understand that muscle is essential! We understand the assignment. We know we need to protect our muscles!

We are out here trying to build as much muscle as possible!

This is a viral for me reel. I shared it on March 13th, and it's still going and being shared today. Safe to say it resonates with many, many women! I LOVE LOVE TO SEE IT!!!

Lastly, honorable mentions:

1 - My review of the Comfrt Jogging Suits! When I tell you these sweats are THE BEST. Better than the top brands. Check em out here! So many colors and styles to choose from!

2 - Everything you need to know about B-Stance Exercises! I also provide video demonstrations of each exercise! 

B-Stance is a pseudo-single-leg movement that provides a middle ground between working one leg at a time and bilateral exercises that work both legs simultaneously!⁣

And why is it called B-Stance: “B” is just a reference to it being a variation of the original movement.

That’s a wrap for March, STRONG friend. I hope April is a amazing month for you!

Let me know if you have any content suggestions, IG post ideas, or any questions. I’m always one click away!

In Strength & to Your Success,

One Love
