is too cute not to share little Laura with you ❤️

There’s a small stretch of time as a kid where movement is just fun — running, jumping, skipping. Pure play and no rules.

Then you grow up and the wellness industry convinces you that you’re one wrong meal or missed workout away from falling apart 😂

If I could tell little me that one day she’d get to help people move better — and feel a little like a kid again because their body finally feels good — she would be so proud.

That’s the whole job honestly 🥹💪

From stage lights 👙 ➝ to race floor 🏃🏽‍♀️

There was an 8 week turn around between my bodybuilding competition and my first hyrox.

My training and focus shifted quickly. The goal changed — but the discipline stayed the same.

✨Less posing. More performance
🔋Less aesthetics. More power

Proof that when the goal changes, the body adapts! Strong isn’t one-dimensional.

🎊If your goals are changing, your training should too. Start now before the new year comes. Msg me “2026” to get it going 🎉

The competition physique looks 🔥 yes, of course. But the weeks post-show — this feels like coming home to myself again. Heavier lifts, more food, and more adventures!

💪🏽new deadlift PB - 130kg for 6reps

You ever just think to yourself, “I’m the strongest woman alive?” Yeah me too!!🤣

Hit a couple rep PRs
50kg/110lbs for 6
52kgs/114lbs for 5

I remember hitting 100lbs for 1 rep when I first tried bench pressing and that was crazy. I haven’t marked my progress on this in a minute. It’s good to remind yourself how far you’ve come.

Just start. There’s no time like the present!

They say everything is bigger in Texas and the did not disappoint. Love seeing shows from the audience side for a change of perspective. Seeing hit the stage has got me hype to hit that same stage next year 🎯

What a whirlwind weekend!!! I competed in my first show in Toronto and placed 2nd in my class & 5th overall.
I can’t believe this was my third bodybuilding show! I’m so proud of all the hard work I put into this prep and even if it’s not the placing we’d hoped for this experience was amazing!

Yerrr! I love that our friendship has grown so much throughout this process. The trust, constant encouragement and hype you provide as a coach is top tier!

I received a lot of great feedback both on what to improve on and what went well. One of the best compliments was the energy I brought to that stage with my posing! I promised that I’d make her proud & I meant it!!

All of this wouldn’t be possible without the community I have around me. Thank you to & for creating spaces in this for a bodybuilder who’s really a powerlifter at heart!

Thank you to my family and friends who have helped me in more ways than one. I can’t fully express what it means to have that support ❤️

Till the next one 🫡

All smiles after today’s gym session 😃
Less than 2 days away I’ll compete in the wellness category

See you on the other side 😘
Wish me luck 🍀
