Strength isn’t just what you lift.

It’s how you move, breathe, brace, and stay present under the load.

The work you can’t see matters just as much as the weight you can. ✨

Plain water just isn't enough for most people.

What's in your bottle?

🤩 Creatine
🤩 BCAAs
🤩 Electrolytes
🤩 L-glutamine
🤩 Juice
🤩 Caffeine

Depending on how busy my day was, the snacks I've had, my phase of menstrual cycle, and flavour I want, I'll mix and match what I need to power that workout.

What's in your bottle?

Hot take - burnout isn't a badge of honour.
Even for a master's or grandmasters athlete.

The strongest athletes aren't the ones doing the most.
They're the ones doing what works for their masters bodies AND recovering like pros.

Less hustle.
More strategy.
More efficiently.
Better results.

🤔 What's one thing this week you could stop doing in order to recover efficiently?

Longevity in any sport comes at a price.

It's not about working harder.

It's about being strategic and efficient with;
🥕 Nutrition
💧Hydration
😴 Sleep
🧪 Lab testing and information
🔴 Hormones
🤩 Recovery

And of course, and having great friends and teammates to share incredible memories, sweat and tears of effort, wins and losses.

Thank you Jim Robinson for capturing this moment.

Grateful for every game, every point, every opportunity to play full out.

It's not by chance I've been able to play high level sport for decades.

Effort goes into;
🏋️‍♀️ Training
🍓 Nutrition
💩 Gut health
💦 Hydration
🔴 Hormone balance
⚡ Neurological load
🥰 Real recovery (not just sleep)

I'm a naturopathic doctor who focuses on helping active women feel energized, balanced, strong and healthy - in gut, hormone, mood.

Because I want everyone to feel the high from playing - and competing - at their best.

The Moment - focused and putting all the training into action.

The pics of playing international sport - at any age - can look great. Some may say even flex 💪

But visibility isn't vanity, it's what happens when preparation meets the moment.

So celebrate your action, your great moments in sport and training.

I'm #13 because I dislocated my patella in 2013 Nationals.

This is why I picked the number.

To remind me:
💪 I can grow stronger
💩 Stuff happens in sport
👹 My skill, my effort, my attitude define how I play. Not a number. Not an injury. Not bad luck.

It's been 13 years since that injury and I've since played:
🇨🇦 Team Canada x2
🌎 Club World champions X3
🏅 More tournaments than I can count.

So no, 13 isn't bad luck.
It's whole lots kicking ass. 😉

As a masters (actually grandmasters) athlete I have to focus my training:

Speed and agility disappear with age, only if you don't train them!

But the reality is that speed, power, coordination, and athleticism don't simply vanish because of a number on a birthday cake.

👉They decline when we stop challenging them.

The body adapts to the demands we place on it.

🤩This is your reminder that athleticism isn't reserved for the young.

Age, work-life balance, mental load, menstrual cycle phase may change the way we train, but it doesn't have to define what we're capable of.

Keep moving. Keep challenging yourself. Keep proving that your best years of performance aren't necessarily behind you. ⚡🏃‍♀️
