These variations of shoulder exercises train your shoulders, core, hips, balance, and posture all at the same time.

✨The offset weight forces your body to stabilize while moving, which is a lot more like real life than sitting on a machine.

👉The half kneeling version (pictured first) challenges balance and control.

👉The tall kneeling version takes away momentum and exposes compensation patterns you normally don’t notice.

Great for building strength that actually carries over to everyday movement and sports.

👉third slide is rows to hit the back of the shoulders and upper/mid back

Save this for the next time you want to make your shoulder workout more functional!

The most common push-up mistake I see that you have no idea you’re making👇

Hands turned inward (fingers pointing toward each other)

It might feel “stronger,” but it actually:
• Puts unnecessary stress on your wrists
• Limits your chest from doing the work
• Encourages your shoulders to take over

Instead, set your hands so your fingers point forward (or slightly out), and think:
“screw your hands into the floor”

You’ll instantly feel more chest, more stability, and less strain.

👉**Goal is for your chest to hit the ground!

Until you get there, place your hands on an elevated surface so you can complete your push-ups with proper form. 👍

Bring your adult daughter to workout day! 🧡

I take it as a huge compliment when my clients bring their loved ones to their Liz Get Fit workouts.

Longtime client and friend brought her daughter Adriana to her workout this morning. Summer is nothing if not committed, consistent, and disciplined. Adriana is visiting for Easter and told her mom she wanted to join her workout. I love that Summer speaks highly of her workouts to her daughter so much that she wanted to join; I love Summer‘s discipline in not skipping even though she has company; and I love LOVE mother and daughter being healthy and exercising together.

This is such a win on so many levels. Summer and Adriana- I’m honored I could get your Girls’ Day started on a healthy step! ✨

Unilateral Leg Work

🍑FIVE exercises to build stronger, more balanced legs and glutes.

Training one leg at a time helps ensure the stronger leg doesn’t take over and do most of the work — which helps correct imbalances. It also better mimics how we move in real life and in sport.

I’m sharing a few exercises here I don’t show very often, so be sure to swipe through and save. 🙌

👉Lateral lunge with plate slide

You get all the benefits of a lateral lunge while also loading the drag leg to target the inner thigh. Make sure the drag leg stays straight.

👉Curtsy lunge

Here I’m holding just one dumbbell. If you hold the dumbbell in the hand opposite the working leg (contralateral load), you’ll target even more of the glute medius — aka the “side b***y.”

👉Banded abductions

Stay in a mini athletic stance and land flat-footed. Keep the band under constant tension by not letting your feet touch. I tell my clients, “your feet hate each other.”

👉Rear foot elevated split squat with a contralateral load

Holding just one dumbbell in the hand opposite the working leg targets more of that side b***y I keep talking about- which is going to help with hip stabilization, knee alignment, lower back support, and a rounded b***y. ✨

👉Single-leg stability ball hamstring curl

Doing these one leg at a time hurts so good. Try to keep your hips up the entire time — hamstring activation here is superrrr high. 👌

Think you can do it!? Save this post for your next lower body day and give these a try! 🔥

Your body isn’t broken.

It’s adapting to lower estrogen.
When estrogen declines, muscle drops and fat storage shifts toward the abdomen.

Less muscle means less room to manage blood sugar efficiently.

Higher insulin makes it easier to store energy, especially around the middle. 🤦‍♀️

Strength training isn’t optional in your 40s, it’s strategy!

Reframe your focus from losing weight to building muscle. Watch your body- and mindset- flourish!

Single-leg hip thrusts turn your glutes on, even out imbalances, protect your hips and back, and help shape stronger, more lifted glutes. I love this one for myself and my clients.

How to set it up 👇

1️⃣ Find a supportive surface (low bench, stacked plates, low couch edge) about a foot high. You should be able to keep your ribs down and pelvis neutral.

2️⃣ Plant one foot so that when your hips are up, your knee tracks over your ankle. Keep your non-working leg in line with the working leg.
(Common mistake: swinging the non-working leg to create momentum.)

3️⃣ Brace your core. Drive your foot into the ground (weight toward the heel), bridge up until you feel tension in the working glute, and pause.
👉 If you feel it in your low back or you’re arching, you’ve gone too high.

4️⃣ Progression: Once you’re strong and stable, add weight to the hip of the working leg.

5️⃣ Where you feel it matters:
• Quad = foot too close to your butt
• Hamstring = foot too far away
• Goal = one glute doing the work

6️⃣ Train both sides. Always.

Save this for when you want a b***y burn! 🔥

Post IPL laser treatment upper body workout!

It’s not glamorous, but sometimes it be like that.

2026 Liz wears huge hats all the time, as I’m resolving to handle the sun damage on my face.

Today I alternated my upper body pulling (rows) with pressing (pushups or dumbbell chest press) and finished off with my super boring physical therapy work to heal an elbow injury.

Then I went for a walk. Keep it simple. Just start! 💪🙌

Merry Christmas! 🎄🌟

Neck tight? Headaches? Shoulders always up by your ears?

Your upper traps might be doing way too much.

Prolonged sitting, phone use, keyboard use, stress, anxiety, and even overtraining can lead to this tightness.

Save this stretch for instant relief and better posture.

OK Moms- we are in a SEASON right now! While we love the Most Wonderful Time of the Year, all of the holiday joy does add some stress to an already jam-packed schedule.

We love class parties, sports team parties, Secret Santas, gift giving, decorating, baking cookies, and general merriment. We really really do. :)
But it’s a lot!

And somewhere between your holiday festivities and your regularly scheduled responsibilities, you might be struggling to make time to- among other things- workout.

I’m here to remind you- it’s not going to be perfect, and it doesn’t need to be.

If you are in a busy season, stop waiting for the ideal window. Start working with the one you actually have. Don’t have an hour? Do 40 minutes. Don’t have 40 minutes? Do 10. Just do SOMETHING. Don’t slip into “Screw it all, I’m going to just stop exercising until January” mode. All-or nothing thinking is tempting- but it’s not sustainable or helpful.

Stop seeking the perfect opportunity. Show up how you can (20 minute workouts, walks, or stretches here and there DO make a difference!) And let that be enough.
