Be open to being vulnerable. That is where you will find your truth and your strength. The Morning Cup is a space where meaningful (and funny) conversations about health, fitness and life happen. This is a place for people to share their stories of adversity and triumph. I believe sharing stories is the path to healing and creating connections with others. I hope you enjoy these inspiring and sometimes off the cuff conversations!!

    16. Calling all Athletes and Performers

    Send us a text Hi Friends! Today's episode is inspired by my own training journey. For the longest time I felt weird whenever someone would refer to me as an “athlete”. Yes I am training for a performance based outcome of a triathlon, but no I did not feel as though I fit in the “bucket”.  If you feel the same way, this episode is for YOU. For all of you listening- you are most likely an athlete or a performer. I will dig into what both of those mean to me, and go off on a few tangents along the way LOL.  As always, I appreciate the time you spend listening you all more than you could ever know.  If you enjoyed today’s episode, please make sure to subscribe to the show, share with a friend, and of course I always appreciate a 5 star review!!

    14. 10 Signs Of Gym Growth

    Send us a text Hi friends! Today I’m sharing 10 signs that show you have grown in the gym (non physically). This episode was inspired by wanting to make a post about gym growth on instagram but couldn't condense it down into JUST 30 seconds or less (ugh attention spans).. Some of the signs on the list may sound like a “no shit” idea, but those are sometimes the things that need to be reiterated the most. I hope you all enjoy! Here are my 10 signs of gym growth: Following a plan Fueling before and afterKnowing your limits and when to reign it inUsing the deadlift platform or any equipment that was scary to youNot hitting every muscle group everyday Not working out for 2+ hours and understanding what consistency is Not restricting calories on off days or over exercising to compensate for missed workouts You stopped body checking Sticking  to a goal - we don't want goal interference You asked for help The list could go on! Instagram & Youtube: Fittywithschmiddy If you have a gym win you would like to share OR if you would be interested in being a guest, please DM me @ fittywithschmiddy If you enjoyed this show, please help me spread the message and share with a friend and on socials, also don’t be afraid to hit that 5 star review!!  Appreciate you all
