I’m back with another episode of “But Nancy, I already know how to do that exercise, and this time it's the cable pulls.

There are MULTIPLE mistakes in this video. Not one. Multiple.

Here's what I need you to do:

👉 Actually watch it. Don't scroll past.
👉 Break down the setup and posture
👉 Notice where the tension is going versus where it should be
👉 Drop everything you caught in the comments

Are you training with purpose or just collecting reps?

Let's find out.

Call it an obsession. I call it knowing exactly who I am.

The gym has been my constant through every season of my life.

Competing in my 20s and 30s.

Navigating perimenopause in my 40s.

And now, at 54, building the best body of my life.

Through ALL of it, the gym has been the one place where I show up for myself without apology.

If anything, that commitment has only gotten stronger.

Let’s be honest, the gym is basically my entire personality, identity AND lifestyle at this point… and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

My workdays are planned around gym time.

My vacations are planned around access to a gym.

And if you invite me somewhere during my training time, just know I’m already calculating how to rearrange my workout.

I know this lifestyle isn’t for everyone.

But MY people?

They get it.

The gym isn’t something we’re trying to fit into our lives.

It’s part of who we are.

Comment “THAT’S ME” if you choose gym time over girl time and plan your vacations around access to a gym.

We are still raising donations. Comment "MENOPAWS" below if you would like to make a difference in the lives of dogs like Faith.

Recently, I visited the Orangeville SPCA this week. And I'm still thinking about it.

Walking through those doors and seeing all those fur babies looking back at me was one of the most heartwarming and heartbreaking experiences at the same time. I wanted to take every single one of them home with me.

But there was one who completely stole my heart.

Meet Faith. Nine years old. Deaf and partially blind. And the most gentle, playful, kind spirited dog I have ever met.

The staff have learned their own form of dog sign language just to communicate with her. She sits for a treat on cue and was so happy. And she had absolutely no idea her situation was anything other than normal.

It took every single ounce of me not to walk out of there with her.

About the shelter: All the food at the shelter is donated. They rely entirely on contributions to cover medical care and daily needs. And seeing that firsthand made everything we did with MenoPAWS feel even more meaningful.

We're still collecting donations through September. Every single dollar goes directly to animals like Faith who are waiting for their forever home.

Comment "MENOPAWS" and I'll send you the direct donation link. Let's keep making a difference for these fur babies.

Early mornings at the gym before the rest of the world wakes up.

Boring meals that I actually enjoy because I know what they're building.

Chloe on the couch next to me by 9pm.

A glass of something good when the moment calls for it.

And absolutely ZERO f*cks of other opinions.

My vibe?

Red hair and heavy weights and salsa dancing.

Calling out bad form in the gym because I can’t help myself.

And refusing to accept that 54 looks the way anyone told me it would.

My mission is to make sure EVERY woman over 40 knows that her best chapter is still being written.

I'm stronger, leaner, and more confident than I was at 34. And I'm just getting started.

This is my vibe. And if it's yours too, you're exactly where you're supposed to be.

Now tell me. What's your vibe?

Lipedema has been one of the most misunderstood and underdiagnosed conditions in women's health for decades.

Most doctors don't recognize it. Most trainers have never heard of it. And most women who have it spend years blaming themselves for a body that was never going to respond the way they expected it to.

I know because I was one of those women for thirty years.

So I'm answering the questions that have been flooding my comments and DMs since I first shared my diagnosis. What it actually is. How I finally got diagnosed. What management looks like. And why the biggest myth surrounding it needs to be dismantled once and for all.

And if you have more questions after watching, drop them below. This conversation is just getting started.

Oh honey, menopause is a b*tch and she is RELENTLESS. 😮‍💨

You could have YEARS of training and nutrition knowledge.

Shoot, you could be like me, countless fitness magazine covers and trophies from different competition stages.

It. Did. Not. Matter.

The inflammation. The weight gain. The brain fog. The fatigue.

It just kept coming no matter how clean I ate or how hard I trained.

Until I learned how to hit back.

Once I figured out exactly how to knock her out, it was GAME OVER.

More muscle and energy. And even more of my LIFE back.

Menopause may have swung first…

but she picked the wrong woman.

The key to getting your body back isn’t MORE training or protein.

The key to getting your energy back isn’t MORE sleep or water.

And the key to getting your life back definitely isn’t MORE time trying to figure it all out yourself.

It starts with understanding what’s actually happening inside your body.

Which blood panels to ask your doctor for.
What those results could mean for your training and nutrition.
And how your strategy may need to change as your hormones change.

You don’t need to do MORE.

You need someone in your corner who has won the battle against menopause and can show you how to do the same.

Comment "COACH" if you're done fighting your hormones and ready to finally have someone show you how to understand them.

Why haven’t you hit the SAVE button yet?

OH… because you already know you should be doing these.

Got it. 😂

But let’s be the kind of friends who tell each other the truth and DON’T sugarcoat s**t for a minute.

I say this with love…

If knowing what to do was enough, you’d already look like you workout. 💅🏼

And those biceps? Girl… they’re looking a little flat.

So here’s what we’re going to do about it:

For the next 4–6 weeks:

💪🏼 Concentration curls 2x a week
💪🏼 3 sets of 8–12 reps per arm
💪🏼 Pick a weight that makes those last 2 reps SPICY
💪🏼 Hit 12 with good form? Add weight.
💪🏼 DO. NOT. SKIP. THEM.

You don’t need another 47 exercises sitting in your saved folder collecting dust.

You need to actually PROGRAM the damn ones that work. 😂

So NOW save this video and come back to it each week to remind yourself of the correct form.

Because doing the exercise is one thing…

**doing it RIGHT is another.**

This is the result of finally understanding what my body actually needs at this age.

Which means YES eating more than I ever did in my 20s. Training with INTENTION over just hammering out more reps to hit some impossible goal. Getting my hormones properly supported. And REST!

None of this happened overnight. And none of it happened by following advice written for someone half my age.

What's possible for me at 54 is possible for you too. The only difference is having the right plan behind you.

Comment "COACH" because I'm taking you with me. And I'll have you believing the same thing about yourself very soon.

The bicep has two distinct phases where growth happens. The stretch at the bottom and the contraction at the top.

Doing only one type of curl means you're leaving half the muscle building stimulus on the table every single session.

Spider curls dominate the stretch phase. Preacher curls own the contraction.

Together they hit every angle your bicep needs to build that full, round, three dimensional shape that actually shows up in the mirror.

Strategic variety built around the mechanics of the muscle you're training. That's what separates arms that look sculpted from arms that just keep doing the same thing and wondering why nothing changes.

Let me know, have you tried both these variations?

Don't forget to hit save, and if this resonated with you, share it with someone who could use it. You'd be doing her a favor and helping us reach more women.

If you're in your 40s, 50s, or 60s and still stuck despite doing everything right, it's probably coming down to one of these three things. 👀

1. You're still obsessing over macros instead of food quality.

2. A calorie deficit alone isn't enough anymore.

3. You don't have a real strategy.

If any of these sound like you, then you've got a plan problem.

Comment "COACH" and let's talk about what's actually holding you back and what it looks like to finally build the visible muscle and body you've been working toward.
