Train Bold | Live Wild:
The Blog
This blog is your trail map filled with stories, strategies, and wild tips for building strength that lasts far beyond the gym. This is for the BOLD ones. The early risers. The log-flippers. The ones training for life, not just looks.
Strength is a Journey, one grounded step at a time.
This isn’t just a fitness blog-it’s a call to the untamed. Train Bold. Live Wild is where strength meets terrain, sweat meets sunrise, and grit is forged in the raw outdoors and the real work inside. We talk wild workouts, grounded recovery, mountain-fueled meals, and the mindset it takes to push limits-indoors or out.
Whether you're just lacing up or halfway up the mountain, you're on the path. Not to perfection, but to power. To presence. To the kind of strength that changes everything. So wherever you are - just beginning, rebuilding, rising or thriving-welcome. This journey is yours, but you're not alone. We're walking it with you.
how to build your plate (the train bold + live wild way)
Simple, balanced, hormone-supportive meals made easy. If you’ve ever felt confused about what a “healthy meal” should look like, you’re not alone. Nutrition has gotten unnecessarily complicated - macros, calories, timing, food rules and lists of what to avoid. But real nourishment? It doesn’t have to be overwhelming.
how i actually train (and why this rhythm works)
If you’ve ever wondered how I structure my own training — this is it. Simple. Repeatable. Effective. No randomness. No chasing burnout. No “go hard every day” mentality.
Just consistent strength, steady movement, mobility, and a rhythm that supports my hormones, energy, and long-term health.
If you do nothing else, do this one thing…
Most people think the answer is more. More discipline. More workouts. More steps. More pressure. More goals crammed into an already overflowing life. But women don’t need more. Women need something that sticks. So if you do nothing else right now — do this one thing: Commit to consistent strength training. Not because it burns calories. Not because it’s trendy. Not because you “should.” But because it’s the one habit that anchors everything else.
the truth about women and muscle: why lifting won’t make you bulky
Let’s settle this once and for all: Lifting weights will NOT make you bulky. It will make you strong, lean, confident, and capable.
HOW fasting affects strength training (and why it might be holding you back)
There’s a lot of hype around fasting — especially in the wellness world. But here’s the truth that rarely gets said out loud: Fasting and strength training do NOT mix well — especially for women. If your goal is to get stronger, build lean muscle, lift heavier, have more energy, or lose fat in a healthy, sustainable way, training fasted works against every one of those goals. Strength training is a stressor. Fasting is a stressor. Stacking the two? Your body feels the impact.
