I often fall into the trap of feeling like I haven’t made good enough progress on certain body parts/muscles (glutes specifically).

IG/social media has made me feel like I’m behind at times but the reality is a lot of people are great at posing/angles and are genetically blessed. Using enhancement compounds is more common than you might think, especially with people who make a living from fitness content/coaching (transparency about it is less common) which I think can create unrealistic expectations for growth for the average person/natural lifter.

This before/after is around 2-3 years of growth (on my shoulders) which is obviously visible but it’s honestly not that much in terms of actual mass. The glutes are a far bigger muscle, and they sit under more fatty tissue than something like the delts/shoulders so changes can be even harder to notice - especially if you’re also losing some fat which could be coming from the area on top of the glutes, therefore making changes seem non-existent.

I asked my coach a while back “Yo Jake why are my glutes losing size 🤨🤨🤔”

But I was in a cut and losing fat so I lost some b***y size but it wasn’t muscle I was losing 😂

I am a bit of a hard gainer on the glutes (visually) so it’s taken a while to notice changes, but I can absolutely FEEL that I have grown muscle in my glutes (like when I tense my legs/glutes it’s absolute rocks back there ahahaha). So the shape might not have changed much but what’s going on underneath the skin has absolutely been changing.

Body composition changes can come quickly, just as much as they can come slowly.

If your strength is increasing, you are definitely building muscle.

Keep grinding 💪🏼

Everyone asked me “how was it?!”

To be coached personally on my lifts by one of the best strength coaches in the world was one thing, but then to watch him coach those same lifts on other people with different biomechanics/mobility/height/strength was extremely valuable.

Honestly just felt amazing being in the room and spending 7+ hours immersed in weightlifting. 10/10 experience, would do again in a heartbeat

Thankyou Sebastian Oreb | Online Coach & Mentor for Personal Trainers + dinnyj🧿 for your knowledge + time 🫶✨ one for the books

The way I carry + hold myself since I started weightlifting is COMPLETELY different now. From actually fuelling myself adequately, to the effort I put into my appearance. My self care was ZERO. I looked like a mess everyday. I didn’t know it at the time but I wasn’t proud of myself or my self expression in my day to day life. Don’t get me wrong I knew how to dress up nice for events and going out, but I took NO pride in my day to day life.

Pushing myself HARD and watching my physique change, my strength and confidence increasing let alone all the health benefits. I’m proud of what I’ve achieved and I have no shame in wanting to share it.

I am so proud of the things I can do and the woman I am; to wake up everyday feeling like “THAT BITCH” is such a gift lmao. And I’m honestly fu***ng fired up to help other people experience this feeling for themselves.

In 3 years I have made some impressive strength gains. But it doesn’t take 3 years to start feeling strong, fit, sexy, confident, proud or full of life. I started feeling that way within weeks of starting in the gym.

Don’t really know how to wrap this caption up, but I’m fu***ng fired up. This new journey is slowly but surely taking shape ❤️

I literally do not recognise the person from this video. I wasn’t eating enough. I was burnt out. Stressed. Anxious. Unhappy. Lifeless. I want to give 2022 Katie a hug

Current season Katie Flinn; confident, strong, hungry for life, but fuelled well ❤️

just a quick flex - 2 chin up reps as a 65kg gal with 15kgs added weight 💅🏼💅🏼💅🏼

Oh katieeeeeee. Ya big mess. I have so much love this version of Katie; she was going through it. In also allowed to call myself a mess 😂😂 I did not give a f**k about how I looked, whatsoever (if you can’t tell lmao)

The biggest difference I notice honestly the life in my eyes.

Just quickly, If anyone’s ever experienced “cuteness agression” (where you see something so cute you just wanna squeeze it/crush it) that’s what lifting heavy weights feels like to me; letting out energy that wants to be used lol!

These “before” pics photos aren’t to shame myself - I honestly look great. But…the way I’m standing, holding myself, I can f

On big dawg duties tonight as guest speaker at Her Seat. x steakbabes event ❤️‍🔥 basically trying to inspire more people to treat nutrition and fuelling yourself as the greatest act of self care you could possibly do, especially as a WOMAN. We are programmed to GIVE our life force to grow new life ~ but pouring back into our own energy is sooooo needed before we can give to projects, people, goals, businesses etc ✨ TIME TO EAT LADIES

People ask me all the time how I find the motivation to go to the gym consistently and honestly I don’t know how to answer that because I never have to find motivation to go. It’s the highlight of my week…. 2 hours of non verbal time with my favourite 6 songs on repeat for the year. Bliss 🤌🏼
