What does strong look like? Thanks for your share @coachgretchenmeyers ! “⭐️About 15 years ago, in my early training career, I joined a gym in the hopes of working there. I had heard really good things about this one instructor in particular, so I signed up for her class right away. . . During that first boot camp, I struggled to keep up. She would effortlessly pick up heavy dumbbells and squat deep and jump up and had the most perfect form. And she talked the whole time as if she was standing still. . . At the end of the class, she lifted up her shirt to reveal her stomach rolls, grabbed them, and said “these rolls say nothing about how strong I am and everything about how much I love Mexican food, margaritas, and the total joy I get outta my life”. . 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 . Up until that point, I had never taken a class with anyone who had a body that didn’t look like mine (thin and white). And yes, back then I fully believed that strong meant you had to have visible muscles and a low percentage of body fat. That one class- and that instructor- changed a lot for me. . And over the course of my career, I’ve seen and trained hundreds of different bodies that proved her right. . You can’t judge someone’s fitness level based on what their body looks like or what they choose to eat. . Strength doesn’t have a ‘look’. Don’t fall into the trap that tells you otherwise. . “ . . . #strengthtraining #howtogetstrong #likehowyoueat #likehowyoumove #behappybehealthy #strong #kettlebells #kettlebell #kettlebellkings #battleropes #battleropesworkout #kettlebellworkout #kettlebellswings #strongwomen #fitness #fit #fitnessjourney #strength #muscle #workout https://www.instagram.com/p/CBYGLliMkv4/?igshid=hzmlua7rib8n
