    Cardio vs Weights vs Pilates - Which One Is Best For Fat Loss?

    If your goal is fat loss, should you be doing cardio, lifting weights, or Pilates? The answer is not as simple as picking one and ditching the others. In this video, I’m breaking down the real fat loss training hierarchy: what to prioritize first, why weight training is the foundation, where cardio actually fits, why walking is more powerful than most people realize, and how Pilates or activation work can make your strength training even more effective. We’ll talk about why steady-state cardio often gets overused, why sprint intervals can support fat loss and muscle preservation, how walking helps with recovery and daily calorie burn, and why Pilates is not just “light toning” work. Because the real question isn’t “cardio vs weights vs Pilates.” It’s: are you using each one for the right job? If you’ve been working hard but still feel stuck, this video will help you understand how to combine training methods in a way that supports fat loss, muscle building, recovery, and long-term results. Watch next to learn how to set up your strength training so it actually builds muscle and changes your body composition.

    Lose Fat AND Build Muscle at the Same Time (The TRUTH about Body Recomposition!)

    I spent years thinking losing fat while building muscle was impossible...and that belief was completely sabotaging me. I was eating less, training harder, and wondering why I never looked as defined as I felt I should. The answer? I was optimizing for weight loss, not recomp. And the scale was lying to me the entire time. In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly why the scale isn't the measure of progress you think it is, what signs to actually look for to know recomp is working, and the four essential things you need to focus on to get the best results as fast as possible. We're covering: Why your body builds muscle before it releases fat...and why that's actually a good signThe real reason you look "skinny fat" even when you're losing weightHow to measure progress when the scale won't budgeWhy I always look at your workouts before your nutritionThe unsexy macros secret that makes high protein diets actually sustainableHow sleep is silently sabotaging your resultsIf you've ever felt like you're doing everything right and still not seeing the definition you want, this one's for you.

    JUST. LIFT. HEAVY.

    JUST. LIFT. HEAVY. We see that all the time on social media. But is that advice actually holding you back? In this episode, we're pushing back on the one-size-fits-all approach to strength training. While heavy compound lifts are absolutely valuable, obsessing over low reps and maximal loads means leaving serious gains on the table. We break down the three real drivers of muscle growth — mechanical tension, metabolic stress, and muscle tissue damage — and why no single rep range or training style can hit all three on its own. You'll learn why the "just lift heavy" mindset can actually lead to injury, why your connective tissues need time to catch up to your strength, and how to use the full spectrum of rep ranges to build muscle more effectively at any age. Plus, three training techniques to try right now: 6-12-25 sets — a rep range trifecta that hits every driver of muscle growthCompound burners — back-to-back moves that take a muscle fully to fatigueStrength intervals — a powerful option whether you're training at home or the gymWhether you're a seasoned lifter hitting a plateau or someone who's been intimidated by the weight room, this episode gives you the nuance and tools to train smarter — and see the results you actually want.

    Every Woman Should Be Able To Do A Pull Up

    Every Woman Should Be Able To Do A Pull Up. I made that statement knowing it was going to be controversial but I was genuinely surprised by how much pushback it got. So I wanted to break down what I actually meant, because the pull-up was never really the point. In this episode, I'm talking about why so many of us have been conditioned to write ourselves off from hard things before we ever truly try. Whether it was a gym class, a throwaway comment, or someone else's limiting belief passed down as fact — we carry these ceilings around with us and never think to test them. I'm also making the case that building toward a pull-up pays off way beyond the gym. The work addresses posture, scapular control, grip strength, neck and shoulder aches — things that matter more and more as we get older. It's use it or lose it, and I'd rather we use it. And if a pull-up is something you've always had that little itch to try, I walk you through exactly how to build up to it — the mobility work, the activation exercises, the vertical pulling progressions — starting right where you are. This episode isn't about shaming anyone. It's about stopping the habit of letting doubt make our decisions for us.

    STOP Saving Calories for the Weekend (It's Making You Fatter)

    You think you're being smart by eating less during the week to "save room" for the weekend. But this strategy — called calorie banking — may actually be training your body to store more fat over time. In this video, Cori breaks down the concept of collateral fattening: why extreme weekday deficits cause muscle loss, slow your metabolism, and amplify hunger cues — so that by the time the weekend hits, you're eating in a much bigger surplus than you realize. And why this cycle gets worse with every dieting attempt. You'll learn: Why the math of calorie banking doesn't actually work outHow undereating changes your hunger hormones and cravingsWhat collateral fattening is and why it explains the "getting softer" effectHow to build in weekend flexibility without sabotaging your resultsWhy consistency beats restriction for long-term body recompIf you've ever felt like you're eating less but still gaining fat — this is why.
