ASK THE COACH: Spring Refresh Edition

Because your fitness shouldn’t hibernate either.

Spring is in the air — and so is the sudden urge to shed winter layers, break a sweat, and reset those fitness goals. We’ve heard your questions, and our coaches are here with some rapid-fire wisdom to get your body and mind back in gear.

Here are a few of the most common questions we’ve gotten from our awesome members:

💪 Q1: “How do I shake off some slumps and get motivated again?”
A: Start small, start smart. Try scheduling just 2–3 workouts a week for consistency. Motivation usually follows momentum — not the other way around. Also: a new playlist never hurts.

☀️ Q2: “What should I focus on during workouts?”
A: Spring’s perfect for recalibrating your foundation — think mobility, strength, and metabolic conditioning. It’s not about going beast mode every session; it’s about building the kind of base that’ll make summer workouts even more fruitful. 

🔥 Q3: “Should I do two workouts a day if one is just light cardio?”
You can — if your body’s recovered and your goals call for it. A strength workout plus a walk, light bike ride, or mobility session can complement each other well. Just don’t double up on intensity daily unless you enjoy being a human pancake.

🧘 Q4: “I want to look good for summer. Do I need to do more cardio?”
Not necessarily. Strength training + smart conditioning > endless treadmill time. Muscle is your metabolic bestie. Focus on compound lifts, circuit training, and yes, mix in some cardio for heart health — not punishment.

🍓 Q5: “Should I be changing my nutrition this season?”

As the seasons change, so should your fuel. Spring is a great time to clean up your eating habits — more fresh produce, lighter meals, improve hydration, and eat consistent protein. Also, let’s stop pretending iced coffee counts as breakfast.

🛠 Q6: “How do I avoid injury when increasing my workouts?”
Ease in, warm up, and recover like a pro. Your body isn’t a machine — it’s a high-performance organism. Respect rest days, sleep well, and keep your movement patterns clean. It’s not about doing more, it’s about doing better.

🧃 Q4: “What should I eat before a workout for energy?”

Pre-workout, keep it simple: a little protein + a small amount of carbs (think: banana + nut butter, Greek yogurt + berries).  Don’t overthink it — fueling beats fasting when it comes to gains.

Stay strong, stay curious, and remember — spring gains bring summer glory. 🌞
