Top 25 Best YouTube Fitness Channels 2026

The year 2026 has been another incredible year for YouTube Fitness Channel Creators, with more fitness enthusiasts than ever before getting their workouts, recipes, and fit tips for free from the best gurus in the world going into 2026. New YouTube Fitness Pros have arisen, and a few have faded, and overall it was more competitive than ever before! I know all about Fitness YouTube channels from personal experience because sometimes it is very tough to get subscribers and viewers going up against or alongside these fitness and media legends! It is not easy to compete against these YOLO lean legends ON A DAI-LY BASIS (as Fitness YouTuber Lui Marco would say) because they are incredibly good at what they do in 2026. 

Fitness Content Creators Wanted To Make Money Online Here

As The Frugal Fitness Guru crushing fitness costs worldwide, I think YouTube is fantastic medium for promoting a healthier lifestyle to the masses, no matter what a person's budget might be! 

All you need is internet connection, some creativity, and dedication to educate and motivate yourself to a higher fitness level with these channels! And if you want a lesson in YouTube Marketing, these are the top YouTube fitness channels and fit creators to learn from in 2026!

After the success of my epic list last year, I decided I need to make this an annual thing. Please keep in mind that this is not my list of the best YouTube Fitness Channels of All Time, this is based on content and viewership! If a channel made huge improvements and jumps in viewership this year, their rank will reflect that. I have spent an enormous amount of time over the years watching top YouTube fitness channels and videos, and my professional experience along with many credentials in the fitness industry are quite strong. And while Frugal Fitness TV may not statistically be one of the Top 25 Best YouTube Fitness Channels of 2025 in the world, it is still pretty good and nothing to sneeze at, so I encourage you to check out the fit videos as well.

And Now The Countdown To The Best of YouTube FIT... 

25 Top Fitness YouTube Channels For 2025

1. Frugal Fitness TV by Mike Schiemer

Frugal Fitness TV is one of the original YouTuber fitness destinations. It covers a lot of topics in fitness, bodybuilding, athletics, sports medicine, wellness, nutrition, and health on a budget. If you don't have much money for your workouts and diet, try these exercises and recipes that won't break the bank. Improve your frugality, health, and wealth with this top-ranked YouTube channel!

2. Vince Delmonte Fitness

The YouTube Fitness legend formerly known as "Skinny Vinny" and the Hard gainer's hero was one of the first successful YouTube fitness gurus and he is very well known. Some people think of him more of a sleazy salesman and reminiscent of "The Situation" from Jersey Shore but those people are clearly missing out. Ya see, Vince is the authority and is actually extremely intelligent, knows his stuff, and also consults and befriends some of the best in the fitness industry including Tony Horton (P90X aka Beach Body), Lee Hayward (see him below), and his figure competitor wife Flavia. Just like last year, my main beef with him (not personally but just in regards to this ranking list), is that he uploads most of his best and complete videos to his paid video subscription Live Large TV. It is not expensive and it is very high-quality stuff, and YouTube was giving him problems that pushed him in that direction, but that still doesn't help all of his followers that can't see all his videos.

3. Kara Leigh

OK enough with the legends, here is a great and promising newcomer to the YouTube Fitness circuit. Kara is a Registered Dietitian and Bikini Competitor and has some great videos for you including workouts, recipes, nutrition tips, competition posing / prep / routines, dieting, and much more for men and women alike. She caught the eye of this year's winners The Hodge Twins, Lui Marco, and more and with good reason. Her channel has grown incredibly fast so look for her channel to continue it is great progress in content and a strong following. Keep up the great work on your fitness videos Kara!

4. Kodjo Workouts

Follow fitness pro Kodjo as he takes you through his nearly 300 toning, muscle building, and home workouts that will take your fitness level further than you thought possible. Great exercise demonstrations to really help you master the details of each movement to get a better overall workout. If you aren't subscribed to him yet, he's got a different video for you to watch every day of your new year for a new you!

5. Rob Riches

Rob Riches is one of the world's most famous male fitness models, and he's got some incredible videos to motivate and inspire you. From his 600 lb squats, to his lean bodybuilding recipes, to his muscle group workouts, you'll learn some wisdom from one of the most accomplished men in the fitness industry today. He's a role model and idol to many YouTube fitness viewers and creators, including Scott Herman and myself. Plenty to learn from this top Fitness YouTuber.

6. Strength Project

Arash for the win! This guy is a gymnast mixed with a martial artist mixed with a bodybuilder mixed with a parkour mixed with who knows what else. He can teach you how to do flips, bodyweight training, muscle building, and pretty much anything else you can think of. He's got tons of videos and a following as fierce as his six pack!

7. Brad Scott Fitness

Fitness model Brad Scott was a newcomer last year to the YouTube fitness scene but this year he really came into his own. He doubled his videos to about 300 and at least quadrupled his viewership! He has got some great Six Pack Insanity workouts, home training, gym training, beach training, fitness modeling tips, and much more. All around great guy that is all about helping his audience and answering their questions.

8. Amanda Russell

Amanda Russell is a YouTube Fitness and Frugal Fashion legend! She is the winner of YouTube's "Next Up Trainer" competition and with good reason. This rags to riches success story has taken NYC, Beverly Hills, and the world by storm with her amazingly effective yet affordable workouts and style. She has trained some of the biggest celebrities in Hollywood and The Big Apple, she was interviewed and worked with top names in the fitness industry including just recently "Fitness Made Simple" founder and legend John Basedow! Amanda is a great example of frugal fitness and improving your own wealth and health with creativity, education, and perseverance! Subscribe to her fit YouTube channel NOW to boost your frugal fitness fast!

9. Physique of Greatness

These YouTube fitness videos are amazing. I'm pretty new actually to Physique of Greatness but this channel is awesome. Videos and workouts that pump you up and entertain the heck out of you as well. Might not be the best one for young children to watch (a few obscenities), but hey whatever works for them! They lift heavy enough weight I am not going to tell them to stop! Hardcore lifting and bodybuilding here with plenty of wise training and nutrition advice as well to top it off on this popular YouTube fitness channel in 2025!

10. BarStarzz

Do you think bodyweight training is for wimps and scrawny guys? Well a) you are a moron and b) these guys will show you why in a thousand different ways. Incredible bodyweight acrobatics, feats of strength, ripped physiques, tutorials, and workouts that will make you tired just from watching. You will never look at the neighborhood playground the same way again after watching this channel.

11. Jeff Cavalier's AthleanX

Physical Therapist and former Pro Strength Coach Jeff Cavalier wants you to train like an athlete if you want to achieve their powerful and cut physiques! That is why this former New York Met's strength and conditioning coach and physical therapist developed AthleanX, which focuses on functional training and athletic movements instead of just traditional bodybuilding and powerlifting exercises. Great free and intelligent advice from a sports medicine professional and trainer to many professional athletes.

12. Bob Harper

Obviously Bob Harper is from the cultural phenomenon The Biggest Loser and this is his fitness channel started in 2010. His videos on everything from weight training, to aerobics, to nutrition, and recipes are all well done. But due to his level of mainstream success, his channel is probably run almost completely by another company and it just doesn't have that personal touch that most of these other channels have. It is a great channel overall but just a little too corporate for me (I guess it is my inner frugality).

13. Brad Gouthro

Fitness model and author Brad Gouthro's relatively new channel Live Lean TV is one of the biggest new developments on the scene this year. He is ripped to shreds, has incredible quality videos, videos on every topic health and fitness imaginable, and he posts videos 5 days a week every week! Watch his great stuff and see his channel continue to grow exponentially with his enthusiasm and expertise leading the charge in 2025!

14. Czech Fitness Girl Simona

Simona, the Czech Fitness Girl, is taking a page out of Zuzana Light's book by combining Eastern European beauty and rock solid muscle. Simona is arguably in just as good of shape as Zuzana and pumps out plenty of great sexy fitness videos, many set to trance and techno music (not my cup of tea personally but a lot of people like that stuff). Her 3 YouTube Channels combine for about 10k subscribers and several million views! Not too shabby! And unlike Zuzana, she also does a great job interacting with her fans and helping to answer their questions on fitness and workouts!

15.  Scooby's Home Bodybuilding & Fitness

I consider Scooby the (grand)father of YouTube fitness since he started as early as it gets (2006) and he just so happens to be about 50 years old. The Godfather of Fitness YouTube is supposedly steroid free, but I actually do believe that because he's been working out his whole life and applies an engineer's (that's his primary vocation) analytical mind to the pursuit of bodybuilding. I like his workouts that only involve training at home with minimal weights and workout equipment, and focusing on excellent form, nutrition, and the mastering the basics. Scooby has truly helped millions and if this was a list of Top 25 Fitness Channels EVER he would be right up at the top at #1. He has put out some great videos this year but a slow pace. This old man is still pretty darn good for a full time engineer and 55 year old man!

16. Brandon Collingwood of Shake Lightly

Brandon Collingwood is a rare mix of fitness intelligence, comedy, and positive attitude that results in a YouTube channel unlike any other. Oh yeah, and the guy's ripped to shreds. He's in ridiculous shape and is still actually a cool guy! Some of his videos are hilarious, some ridiculous, and some you might just learn something! This California-based personal trainer has been in the fitness industry helping clients of all kinds for a decade. The world is getting to know him, he's got nearly 8k subscribers and closing in on 2 million views!

17. Choose Fitness

Another huge up-and-coming fitness icon is Jack Nauss of Choose Fitness, an 18 year old natural bodybuilder and rising fitness personality. Great workouts, tips, motivation, positive attitude, big physique, and an excellent work ethic make this guy a role model for anyone to follow, young or old, men or women. Besides having huge potential for a lengthy successful career in bodybuilding and fitness, Jack might be one of the best in the world in the social media and entrepreneurship department for his age. Look for him to keep climbing this list in years to come and start dominating the industry before he is just 28 right now!

18. Underground Wellness

This guy has uploaded some good stuff! All kinds of great fitness, nutrition, weight loss, and gastrointestinal health videos here as Sean Croxton tackles all topics! The guy also got over 40k subscribers, nearly 10 million views, and over 200 videos which are all pretty well done. You can learn a lot from Underground Wellness!

19. Davey Wavey Fitness

Davey Wavey has been a YouTube personality for a long time and he has a huge fan base. He has always been into fitness but his fitness-specific channel is relatively new and on its way up. He now has over 40 videos on fitness, nutrition, and motivation and his channel was chosen as a contestant on YouTube's Next Up Trainer. He has got some great tips and workouts, and is clearly very intelligent, well-spoken, and in great shape. His affiliation with Scott Herman Fitness also ensures his continued channel growth. Check out his channel today!

20. Brandon Carter

Well for those of you who don't know, Brandon Carter used to have one of the biggest fitness YouTube channels a year ago, but it was terminated "due to repeated counts of copyright infringement and violations" or something along those lines. Now I know from personal experience that slaps on the wrist from Google can be deserving, or they can be from things out of your control (haters, people with good intentions but dumb actions, etc). Anyways, he has had to start new channels which is always rough, but Brandon has some great fitness workouts, tips, motivation, physique, and he's even a musician as well! Check out his new and improved stuff and support a YouTube fitness legend as he rebuilds his empire!

21. Lui Marco

I salute Lui Marco ON A DAI-LY BASIS! This guy is a machine, between his 3 top YouTube fitness channels he has well over 1,000 videos, over 50,000 subscribers, and tons of millions of views. This guy is the French Canadien Jean Claude Van Dam of Fitness (I think I only said that because of his accent haha) as he discusses every single aspect of health, fitness, and the YOLO lifestyle. Lui tells it like is on every single topic of fitness including the ones that nobody wants to talk about like steroids, fasting, industry boneheads, what supplements are bogus, and what to do with those pesky haters. Lui is diced to the socks and salutes you on your quest to a higher level of fitness, and knows his nearly endless supply of videos can help you significantly.

22. BodyRock TV

So BodyRock TV doesn't have Zuzana Light anymore, but they do have the rights to all her previous videos (and their mind-blowing stats), and the new ones are still pretty amazing! Zuzana's stand-in Lisa-Marie can certainly hold her own and there are some ok videos with Freddy and Sean as well (but let's be serious, nobody goes to that channel to see Freddy and Sean or any mediocre dudes). This channel with over HALF A BILLION views and a massive amount of subscribers still producers great high quality home workout videos several times a week! While we all miss Zuzana, there are still a lot of dedicated BodyRockers out there staying with the channel and these workouts are just as intense, but just with a different accent shouting them out.

23. Zuzka Light

Zuzana Light is not a BodyRocker anymore? I know that's kind of old news now, but at first I don't think we were all 100% sure she would succeed completely on her own starting from scratch. But within a month or two her new channel Zuzka Light was kicking booty again and the former adult film star was getting people back in shape with her sultry eastern European accent and love for Burpees. In about a year, she brought in over 120,000 subscribers and over 12 million views to her new channel, while BodyRock TV continued using her replacement Lisa-Marie. 

Whether you think Zuzana's appeal is partially aesthetic, you can't deny she has some intense and effective workouts and creates some great quality videos that get people back in shape. She proves that in America everybody gets a second chance (or a third chance) and that you can always carry over success in one area to another a different realm with hard work. That is an interesting but powerful version of The American Dream right there!

24. Strength Camp

This guy is a YouTube champion of muscle knowledge! His 100,000+ subscribers, nearly 20 million views, and 600+ videos are incredible testaments to his knowledge and experience in strongman, powerlifting, bodybuilding, and fitness. THE BEAST IS HERE and his free media is very powerful indeed! Make sure you get this guy in your YouTube fitness channel subscription mix! Thank you Arash from Strength Project for the reminder through your popular YouTube fitness videos!

25. The Hodge Twins of Twin Muscle Workout

The Tag Team Champions of the World are here! ALL KINDS OF GAINS. OK these guys are officially out of control after this year. Their three top YouTube Fitness Channels have so many subscribers, views, and videos it will blow your mind. And somehow they have done it without spamming the planet like Six Pack Shortcuts. There is Twin Muscle Workout, Hodge Twins, and Ask Hodge Twins channels and their worst video will get more views, likes, and comments in a day than the best video of most mere mortals in their lifetime. 

These guys are a double whammy tackling absolutely every topic of bodybuilding, fitness, nutrition, supplements, sports, media, and life that you can possibly fathom. They post videos daily, do live shoes, answer fan questions, do live vid hangouts, give shout-outs to fans and fellow YouTube fitness creators, and have become the most recognizable faces in YouTube fitness. Talk about fitness marketing experts! These two swole bros are the reigning authority when it comes to YouTube fitness! Sorry guys, you will have to share the crown this year! I am frugal, I only bought one. Long live the kings of YouTube fitness for 2025! 

Although now I hear these top fitness YouTubers are getting a lot more political and less fit on their new videos and media in 2025. That is a shame for fitness media consumers, but I understand that even fit YouTubers need to expand their horizons and evolve long-term as I have done with my channels. The health and fitness industry creates a lot of burnout and some bodies don't last forever either, especially if you are natty. 

Top YouTube Fitness Channel Runner Up - Six Pack Shortcuts

I can't make a list without at least mentioning this top fit YouTuber Mike Chang with one of the most popular channels in YouTube Fitness, and YouTube in general. Now Mike's Six Pack Shortcuts can be a very polarizing channel: some people love the guy, and others think he's a scam and a bonehead. I think you've seen one of his YouTube AdWords ads if you have gone ANYWHERE on the internet in the past couple years (you will probably even see his ads on my site and videos!). Anyways, regardless of what anyone thinks of Mike, he has uploaded a lot of very popular videos and some of them have some great tips and/or excellent entertainment value. And since his following is so strong, although inflated by advertising, he is a force to be reckoned with in the fitness world for 2025.

So there you have it folks, my Top 25 Rankings of YouTube Creators with the Best Fitness Channels of 2025. With these YouTube Health and Fit channels, the world will be able to get in better shape with just motivation and some good WiFi. 

Check out all these leading YouTuber channels and fit social media influencers, subscribe for free, and get in the best shape of your life! It is time to rock your body for no cost.

How To Stay Healthy As You Get Older

As we age, it is natural that we might not be able to do all of the things that we once did - we might experience more aches and pains and we may even forget things from time to time. However, if you start taking steps to take care of yourself you can stay much happier and healthier, for longer. 

Stay Active 

Staying active is perhaps one of the most important things that you can do. Regular cardiovascular exercise such as walking, dancing, cycling and swimming will ensure that your heart and lungs stay in good shape. This kind of exercise is also beneficial for your mental health because it promotes the release of serotonin, one of the hormones that regulate mood. 

It is also a good idea to do strength-based exercise as you age, as this protects your bones and can help to keep you more mobile for longer. Strength-based exercise doesn’t mean that you have to lift heavy weights, things like yoga and Pilates provide the opportunity for strength building in a way that is less strenuous and more enjoyable. 

Watch What You Eat 

As we get older, our digestion actually slows down and we need fewer calories. This means that what we eat becomes even more important. 

A great diet to take inspiration from is the Mediterranean diet, which consists of lots of fruits and vegetables, lean protein such as beans and oily fish. The diet is particularly beneficial for older people because it is high in fiber, which helps to aid digestion, and also is high in the nutrients that you need to promote a healthy mind and body. 

Assisted Living 

If you are choosing an assisted living community, it’s important that maintaining a healthy lifestyle be part of your selection process. Healthy choices and lifestyle options are important when choosing a senior living or assisted living community. According to Brightview assisted living in Rockville MD, questions you should ask include, “Are there multiple menu options for each meal of the day?” and “Is there a calendar of events accessible to you?” 

Try to choose a community that provides a healthy and well-rounded menu, and that will help and encourage you to take part in physical activity as well as social activities. 

Stay Socially Active 

Remaining socially active is important for your well-being as you get older. Studies have shown that people who regularly socialize and get involved in their community have a greater sense of meaning and purpose, and as a result, are less likely to suffer from anxiety and depression. 

This in turn means that their physical health is likely to benefit. 

Attend Check-Ups Regularly

Your doctor will usually recommend a check-up every so often to ensure that there aren’t any health problems developing. It is important that you attend these check-ups. Attending check-ups means that if there is a problem it is more likely to be caught early, which means that treatment will be easier and much more likely to be effective. It is also important to take advantage of any preventative health care that you are offered, such as vaccinations. All of this helps your health, wellness, and longevity as you become a senior citizen.

Wellness Tip Guide at Home: Keeping Stress Low

According to statistics, nearly 80% of Americans have reported feeling significant levels of ongoing stress due to the global pandemic. 

While this may not be the most harrowing statistic of the past year, ongoing stress can have negative effects on your physical, emotional, and mental health. Managing life during the pandemic requires more than just hand-washing and mask-wearing. 

You have to keep your stress levels in check by finding places of calm and relief in your everyday life. If you're not sure where to start, this wellness tip guide provides an array of ideas on how to create a stress-free home life. 

Identify Stress in Your Life 

The first step in overcoming stress in your life is to stop ignoring it. 

Many external stressors in life can feel out of your control. However, getting bogged down by stress is more a result of how you respond to your circumstances. 

If you simply point a finger at the reasons you feel stressed, nothing is going to change. Shift your outlook by analyzing how you react in moments of stress. Try implementing some new habits that can help you feel your best no matter what life throws at you. 

Get a Full Night's Sleep 

Prioritizing a good night's sleep is integral to maintaining a healthy immune system and a clear mind. Going through every stage of your sleep cycle will support your immune system and prepare you to take on the challenges of a new day. 

Negative reactions to stress are often more triggered if you don't get enough sleep. You can become more irritable and be more prone to over-reacting to small stressors throughout the day. 

Maintain a Healthy Morning Routine 

We've all heard the cliché advice to start your day off on the right foot. But what does that actually look like? 

A healthy morning routine is not a one-size-fits-all checklist. Think about things that put you in a good mood. Waking up and taking time for yourself will set the tone for the rest of the day. 

Find relaxing activities that you enjoy and implement them into your morning routine. You'll be in a better mindset to take on the demands of life if you make your happiness the first priority of each day. 

Take Short Breaks Throughout the Day 

Research shows that taking frequent breaks throughout your workday can actually lead to higher productivity. 

In fact, the ideal work schedule involves about an hour of work, followed by a 15-minute break. It all has to do with how your brain functions best. With bursts of focus, you can utilize your brain's peak activity. 

However, in order for this method to be effective, you need to respect your break time just as much as your work time. After each hour, completely disconnect from work by moving away from your computer and engaging in something unrelated to work. 

This could be chatting with a friend or going for a short walk. Whatever you choose to do in the downtime, you'll feel more motivated to give your all when you get back to work. 

Get Your Body Moving 

Staying active doesn't have to mean breaking a sweat every day. The important thing is to get your body moving. With more time spent inside, it's important to relieve tension and stiffness in your muscles and joints. 

Additionally, exercise releases endorphins that improve your overall mood and increase your energy. If you're struggling to sleep at night, exercising can help you become tired enough for a restful night. 

For a mindful exercise routine, try yoga! Yoga links movement to breathing and connects your body and mind. Breathing exercises throughout your yoga practice will ground you so that you can avoid a spiral of stressful thoughts and emotions. 

Make Time for Creative Fun 

Finding a creative outlet is a great way to release thoughts and ideas that build up over time. Journaling once a day can clear your mind of clutter to help you focus on the task at hand. 

You don't have to be an eloquent writer to use a journal. The less you focus on making the perfect prose, the more effective this habit will be. Additionally, if there's something in your life that continues to cause stress and anxiety, writing can help you process it and work through it without any pressure or judgment. 

Stress often comes from feeling overwhelmed. When you're able to create something and express yourself, you build the confidence to take on your to-do list. Make sure you choose something that you find fun! This might take some experimenting but it's well worth the trial and error. 

Create a Calming Space 

Clutter can be mental and physical. While journaling can help you de-clutter your mind, a clear and calming environment helps relieve stress in a physical way. 

Your home is likely where you spend the most time and it's often a reflection of your personality and lifestyle. So if you aim to have a stress-free life, clear your home of anything that doesn't add positivity to your daily routine. 

If you have the time to redecorate your space, try to use calming color schemes and add plants to bring life into the home. Create a space dedicated to work so that you can leave it behind at the end of the day. If you work from your bedroom or couch, you will start to associate these spaces of relaxation with stressful deadlines and negative emotions. 

Connect With People 

Although we can't see all of our loved ones in person, technology has made it easy to keep connected through this isolating time. 

Don't expect your community to solve the stressors in your life. Instead, see interaction as a way to focus on deepening the relationships you value. When you spend time working on your relationships, you'll realign your priorities and shift away from letting unnecessary stress control your emotions. 

Expressing your feelings will help you release the stress and get it out of your mind. Find people you can confide in to talk to every day. Everyone experiences stress, so talking to someone and hearing about their experiences will help give you perspective and provide a community of support. 

Fuel Your Body With a Healthy Diet 

A healthy diet contributes greatly to lowering stress levels. To decrease stress, avoid eating foods that cause a spike in blood sugar. These are generally foods with a lot of refined sugar and carbs. 

If your diet consists of a lot of junk food, your mood will be constantly up and down. In order to regulate your mood and boost energy, eat foods like avocados, berries, leafy greens, and whole grains. These superfoods contain loads of nutrients that help to maintain a balanced diet. 

Although caffeine can be helpful for a boost in energy, try to limit your coffee and soda intake so you don't crash after riding a caffeine high. If you're tired or lethargic, the tasks you have to do will feel more difficult to conquer. 

Make Time for Play 

Sometimes the best way to relieve stress is to act like a kid again. The ability to laugh and be silly without feeling insecure helps to remove the pressure of everyday life. 

Crank the music and dance around in your home. If you feel ridiculous, allow yourself to laugh about it instead of criticizing yourself. Laughing lowers the body's stress hormone and releases endorphins that make you feel good and boost your mood. 

Focus on Self Care 

If you don't already have a self-care routine, now is the time to make one! Self-care can be anything you want. For some people, it's a nice bubble bath and a book. For others, it's a couple of episodes of their favorite TV show after work. 

The key to self-care is figuring out what puts you at ease and feeds your soul, then make those things a regular priority. Remember self-care goes beyond your basic needs. Practice giving yourself a little something extra as a reward for getting through the day. 

If you've never practiced self-care, here are a few examples of ways to treat yourself that can lower stress. 

Have an at-home spa night with products that feel luxurious and soothe your body. 

Relax your body and mind with delta 8 products that use THC, CBD, and other cannabinoids to promote restful sleep and wellness. 

Treat yourself to aromatherapy with essential oils that are proven to lower stress. 

If you struggle to remember self-care or feel like you never have time for it, try setting a time in your calendar. Treat it like a meeting or an appointment. Honor the time you set aside for yourself by showing up instead of rescheduling. 

Shift Your Mindset 

While you can't control every life circumstance, stress can be managed by shifting your mindset. Try to look at each problem you encounter from a different perspective. What do you like about the situation and what can you change? 

Control the Input 

Often, when people become overwhelmed by stress, they still neglect to change the things they can control. You may not be able to change the state of the world, but you can take a break from reading the news. 

Setting boundaries is a healthy way of deciding what input you allow in your life. If there's a relationship that causes you to stress, create a healthy distance from that person. Your time and energy belong to you! That means you get to decide who and what you spend it on. 

Practicing gratitude may seem silly at first but it makes a world of difference in shifting your mindset by forcing you to focus on the positive. 

Practice Gratitude 

Keep a journal of things you're grateful for. Each day add a few more things. Then, when you're feeling negative and bogged down by stress, look at the list to remind yourself of what really matters in life. 

Gratitude can go beyond the things and people in your life. Try writing daily affirmations that speak to things you love about yourself. Say these affirmations every day as a part of your morning routine to remind yourself that you're capable of overcoming whatever challenges are ahead. 

Make Achievable Goals 

You may have things on your to-do list that seem impossible. Tasks without a clear path to success will cause stress and anxiety. Start each day by setting achievable goals. 

Schedule your time realistically. If you cram your day with more than you can do, you'll feel like a failure because you weren't honest with yourself. Start with a few achievable tasks and clearly map out how you will get them done. 

If you know exactly what you need to do, there's no stress of figuring it out as you go.

Back & Better Than Ever! Running & Cupcakes 4 The Win!

Contributed By Samantha Zeigler, Author of Running & Cupcakes

It has been 25 days since I blogged last. I owe you all an apology for just dropping off the face of the planet for almost a month – but life went to crazy town, and I just couldn’t do it all! I will probably still not write as much as I used to, but I’m back.

With that being said, let’s start with what 2013 has in store for me.

I absolutely KNOW, without a doubt, that 2013 is going to be an amazing year. It all started with an incredibly party that my roommates and I threw New Year’s Eve – don’t we clean up well?

When we did the head count for our toast we had 15 people in our house! It was one of the best countdowns into the New Year that I can remember. It helps that my little bro and his girlfriend were with us, and a certain someone that I had been seeing for a few weeks was also here with us.

That same certain someone that decided on Friday it would be a good idea for us to go from exclusive dating to an exclusive couple. Yes, that’s right. I have myself a new boyfriend! I promised him anonymity if I wrote about him – so we’ll just call him the boyfriend going forward.

Speaking of the boyfriend – so I told him I wanted to learn kettlebell stuff (that’s the majority of his workouts) to shake up my routine, to use on my clients, etc. So we went to his gym yesterday and I got my ass handed to me!

This is what I looked like after all of that… (do you blame me?)

And then he came to the gym with me today and I got my ass handed to me again:

The only reason I’m awake right now is because I’m waiting for the washer to get done…

I also ran intervals on the treadmill twice last week and really kicked out some random, song based intervals all at 7:30 minutes/mile. I’m getting way faster!

What else is making this year amazing so far?

I won the weight loss challenge I was in! I lost 10 total pounds, which was a total of 7.09% of my body weight! I’m so excited to have been able to push myself to lose those last 10 pounds, through the holidays! I feel great right now!

So really – can you think of any better reasons to say 2013 is going to be amazing? Awesome friends, a new man, new workouts, faster running legs, and finally shedding those last 10 pounds. Sounds perfect to me!

So now what’s in store for the rest of the year? Honestly, I don’t really know. I have some ideas:

• Snowboarding
• Tour de Patrick
• Tough Mudders and/or Spartan Races
• Figure Competition

This is the first year since I started running that I haven’t had all my races planned to death. I’m going to sit back, relax, and take it all in stride. I’m also really enjoying more strength training and less running, it’s a refreshing change of pace.

I can’t even begin to explain how excited I am to see what the rest of this year has to offer. Stay tuned, I feel like it’s going to be an amazingly fun and wild ride!

What about you – how do you feel about 2013 so far?

Big Changes For LIFT, LOVE LIFE!

Contributed By Maria Waldron, Author of Lift, Love, Life

Well hello there! And welcome to my new site! I told you that changes were a-comin’ and I have to say, I’m really loving these big changes. In fact, I can’t stop opening up my site just to admire the beautiful work from my designer. And thank you so much to everyone who has made the move with me, you have no idea how much it means to me to be able to start fresh with this blog but still have the same faithful friends :)

As for the next big change?

I start my 200 hour yoga teacher training TOMORROW MORNING. To say that I’m excited is an understatement. I am besides myself just thinking about all of the exciting things I’ll learn, the new people I’ll meet, and the possibility of this adventure changing my life. I’m pretty sure I won’t be able to sleep tonight ;)

So why do I think this will be a life changing event for me? Well, because it already has. But let me back up for a hot minute.

In 2008, I took my first yoga class at the Freedom Aquatic Center at George Mason University and instantly fell in love with how my body felt. But then I moved to Georgia to be with my husband (Army stuff, what else?), back to Virginia, and then finally here. I did yoga on and off during these times but for me it was always about the physical benefits and never about this whole mind-body mumbo jumbo thing you hear everyone and their momma raving about. When I got pregnant with Caleb, I got serious about yoga again and decided to get back into a regular practice by going twice a week. I found a new studio, discovered a new teacher that I couldn’t get enough of, and I ended up having a wonderful pregnancy due to my regular routine of  yoga, running, and CrossFit. All was well, life was great, and I felt fan-freaking-tastic.

And then I had Caleb.

I don’t mean to scare any new or potential moms out there but there is no way in hell anyone can prepare you for the shitstorm of hormones you’ll experience after having a baby. Even if you do everything by the book by eating right and exercising throughout your pregnancy, those hormones are coming for you and nothing’s stopping them. Though, I did have a friend who had a baby around the same time as me, and as much as I love this woman, when she told me the hormone fairies skipped her I immediately wanted to sucker punch her in the throat. And I promise that’s not normal for me.

As much as I tried to keep it together for my new son, for those around me, and even for this blog, I really had some dark days postpartum. And I mean that literally. There were days where as beautiful and sunny as it was outside, everything was still gray and dreary for me. I would look at Caleb, see sunshine, then look away only for things to get black again. Of course, I had my awesome days but for the most part, there was always this internal struggle for me to do even the simplest task like clearing the dishwasher. I really had to talk myself into doing things because I knew they were necessary and because I love my son so much that I despised the thought of him ever seeing me fall apart.

I don’t know if maybe the husband had been home, things would have been any different. There was nothing stopping these waves of hormones. And even though Ranger school and his deployment didn’t last that long, just knowing what he was going through was enough for me to keep everything to myself to avoid stressing him out. But I’m human and I still caught myself lashing out at the poor guy the few times I did hear from him. In fact, there was a moment clear as day when I knew I something was up. After not hearing from my husband for weeks and hearing about a helicopter crash in his unit, he uploaded a harmless, silly picture poking fun at another military branch on facebook when I suddenly lost my marbles. Now, that picture makes me laugh hysterically but at the time, I couldn’t contain myself and ended up crying for hours to my best friends in Seattle and California about everything in the world that was bothering me at the time. It was the strangest thing ever, and SO unlike my usual, bubbly self. I realized then that something was up and that I needed something other then running and lifting weights to clear my head and zap this funk I was in.

I hinted in our four year anniversary post that I sought counseling, but I also turned to yoga again. I loved running and Crossfit, but the high I felt always seemed to disappear as quickly as it came on. So I went to a yoga class one day, thinking it was going to be just like every other class I’ve been to and loved. But for some inexplicable reason, I walked out of that class and everything clicked for me. I don’t know if it was the meditation coupled with the deep breathing, or if it’s something our teacher said that resonated with me, but it was that one class that I will never forget, where everything began to connect and I finally started to understand the whole mind-body connection. I drank the “yoga mumbo jumbo” kool-aid and finally got it.

That class taught me that all this perfection and this image that I was trying to attain as a new mom didn’t matter. That life wasn’t about trying to live a certain way, but to just live your life and let it take you where it needs to take you. I learned to take these strange feelings in stride and look at them with curiosity, and not enmity. It was then I learned how to step back, pause, and learn to understand how and why I was feeling that way, so that I could brace these feelings with a positive light.

Maybe my epiphany was a result of multiple counseling sessions coupled with my deep yoga practice, or maybe it was just my raging hormones finally subsiding, but it was that day and after that class when I finally felt the sun again. My world was light again, and it wasn’t just when I lovingly looked at my child.

Yoga really came to me at a time when I needed it most, and it changed my life. I finally learned that yoga isn’t just breathing and stretching. It’s not about learning how to do a handstand or headstand, instead it’s about learning how to stand. Since that one class, every time I practice, not only do I leave my mat physically and mentally stronger, but I walk away enlightened. Each practice reminds to approach life in a different and kinder manner, and it reminds me to strive to be a better person for myself and for everyone I love. And unlike the endorphins I get from other physical activities, the feelings last.

The reason I consider this a life changing journey is because after this training experience, I’ll finally have the opportunity to change someone’s life how yoga changed mine. If there is a mother out there that feels the same way I did after having a baby, I want use my experience and be there for her. I want to let her know that she’s not alone, and that there is a way out of the darkness. And if I can give an inkling of how freaking amazing yoga makes both my body AND mind feel to just one person, I’ll know that I have been a successful teacher. That’s life changing in itself knowing that I can make a small difference in someones life.

And that is why I am besides myself and cannot wait till tomorrow morning. It’s going to be a long night for me for sure, but the end result will be totally worth it ;) By March, I’ll be certified to teach hot and power vinyasa yoga. So yes, big thing’s are definitely poppin’!

Have a great weekend world, I’ll be up to my nose in anatomy books :)
