Dynamic Strength and Conditioning

Big goals can feel overwhelming — but progress starts with one decision, one workout, one step at a time. 🔥

You don’t need to have it all figured out today. Just keep moving forward. Your future self will thank you. 💪

New episode of The DSC Podcast just dropped. 🎙️

And this one is for anyone who has ever treated cardio like it was optional.

Coach Colby is an OG strength guy. Heavy lifts, big numbers, zero cardio, zero regrets.

Then HYROX came along and humbled him.

In this episode he gets real about what it has felt like to build cardio and endurance from scratch, the hard days, the moments he wanted to quit, and why he has completely fallen in love with doing something that does not come naturally to him.

Because the hardest things are almost always the most worth doing.

Episode 3: "I Never Did Cardio. Then I Found HYROX."

New episode just dropped. 🎙️

I handed the mic to Coach Jake, and he got real about something finding time to train and juggle a new family.

Jake is a brand new dad. He is also a HYROX athlete. And in Episode 2 of The DSC Podcast he talks honestly about how training looks completely different now, and why that is okay.

Broken sleep. Shifted priorities. A schedule that is no longer your own.

Sound familiar?

This one is for every parent who is trying to figure out how to keep showing up for themselves while showing up for everyone else first.

Episode 2: "New Dad. HYROX Athlete. Here's How I'm Making It Work."

New month. New goals. New standards. 👊

A fresh start doesn’t mean being perfect — it means showing up, staying consistent, and putting in the work one day at a time.

Let this month be the one where you stop waiting and start building. 🔥

Last week, Coach Jake and I got off to a great start with our Hyrox journey. And that starts with real baseline data. Enter

Before we kick off our HYROX training, we headed to DexaFit in Nashua for DEXA scans and VO2 max testing to set up our baselines, and we are sharing our real numbers, results and all.

Weird flex but my bone density came back excellent, and as a menopausal woman, luck has nothing to do with it.

It is the payoff of years of resistance training. Perimenopause and menopause are exactly when women lose the most bone, and lifting challenging weights is the single most reliable way to defend it.

And the best part? It is never too late. The second you pick up a weight that challenges you, those changes become available to your body, at any age.

Muscle is medicine, and it literally why we exist.

We also tucked a little news into the end of the blog. There is a third piece of baseline testing coming home to DSC very soon, and it is going to be available to every one of you, from group coaching to private training to our HYROX crew.

Read the full story, link in the comments.

New here and feeling that little nudge? Come try us free for 7 days, with zero pressure and every modification you need to feel safe from your very first session. You do not have to be fit to start, you just have to start. Your starting line is waiting☺️💪

I did the scary thing today. 🎙️

Perfectionism has been keeping me from launching a podcast for years. The audio wasn't right. The format wasn't planned. I wasn't ready.

So today I did exactly what I ask you to do every time you almost don't walk through that door. I just showed up anyway.

The DSC Podcast is live. Episode one is called "I Signed Up for HYROX at 55. Here's What Happened." It is five minutes, it is raw, with a few ums and ahs. Search THE DSC PODCAST on Spotify or Apple Podcasts and give it a listen. Link in bio.

And speaking of doing scary things...

🔥 Our HYROX Half Simulation is happening June 7th right here at DSC. ONLY 10 SPOTS LEFT. If you have been curious about HYROX but not sure if it is for you, this is the safest, most supported way to find out. Coached, modified, and surrounded by community the whole way through.

A huge thank you to our amazing event sponsors who are making this happen:

🏆 Title Sponsor: Buckley Law | buckleylaw.com
⭐ DEXAFIT Nashua, NH

And if you have been thinking about joining DSC, we have a 7-day free trial with your name on it. Come see what we are about before you commit to anything. Link in bio.

I carried a yellow ribbon at the Boston Marathon Tough Ruck this year.

On it was the name of a 21-year-old woman who gave everything and never got to come home.

Her name was Elizabeth Nicole Jacobson, and she is the reason I finished.
First female airman killed in Operation Iraqi Freedom.

She was 21. She had plans. She never came home.
26.2 miles in the cold rain, and her name carried me every single step.

Her story, the DSC Ruckers and mine are on the blog today. Link in bio. 🎗️

This Memorial Day, stop and feel it. Honor the ones who never got to come home.

Sometimes growth looks like changing direction.

What worked before won’t always work forever—and that’s okay. The strongest move you can make is recognizing when it’s time to pivot.

Adjust. Realign. Keep moving forward. 💪
