This blog was originally sent to my exclusive insider’s a few months ago. It’s deeply personal and yet, universal in the struggles and resulting strategies and life changing shifts I experienced as a result of the events that happened (which I’ll fully outline below).

I hear it all the time “Sara, I want to build muscle, burn fat, look and feel strong. I keep going to the gym and I’m not seeing the results I want. Can you help?” YES! After hearing this and witnessing the look of frustration on so many faces, I created the exact program I give…
