Show notes

Do you hear the shellphone ringing? The CLAMline is open again this week! I’m sharing a recap of my amazing trip to ATL to celebrate my friend’s baby shower and some of the topics it has brought up for me, including building beautiful friendships and relationships, and my egg freezing journey. Then, we’re taking some calls from the clammies and celebrating all their strength, milestones, and goals!

Some key takeaways from this episode include:

Don’t negotiate with yourself! If you decide setting your alarm for an early morning is a great idea, show up and keep that promise to yourself. If 5 PM is the time you want to get after it, that’s awesome, too! Set a time and stick to it.
You are the company you keep. I had an amazing time connecting with my bestie and her friends at her baby shower this month, and the clam community has supported each other through so much in their lives even though so many of them haven’t met in real life!
Going from working out because you don’t like your body to working out because you love your body is a huge transition and SO worth celebrating!! Movement is a celebration of your body and I’m so grateful you join me every week to workout together!

Eric Thomas - Victor vs. Victim Motivational Speech

Some key takeaways from this episode include:

If you’re ever feeling down, get up and get moving! The endorphin rush from getting a workout in will instantly make you feel so much better. Just 10 minutes makes a world of difference.
When we feel called to blame something or someone other than ourselves for how we’re doing, sometimes we have to take a hard look at ourselves and see what we can individually do better to achieve a better outcome.
Be comfortable with your own company! There’s a difference between being alone and being lonely. Try something fun on your own and just enjoy the quiet time to yourself. Developing your relationship with yourself will help you keep your promises to yourself when it’s time to get the work done!

5. All the Ways My Week Went From From Bad to Good Sep 19, 2022

Show notes

I know I keep it super positive and vibrant when I’m working out with my clams, but some days bummer things still happen and I have to pull myself out of the punk! In this episode, I’m sharing my recent travels and some of the not so fun things that have happened, along with what I did to turn them around from bad to good!

Some key takeaways on turning a crappy day around are:

Do what feels good and feels right! We skipped the Clemson game in person due to the weather, and ended up making the best of it with charcuterie and fireball. A dream!
If you’re hungover, do a workout! It’s probably the last thing you’re feeling, but I promise after 10 minutes you’ll feel so much better!
When things aren’t going your way, don’t get mad at the folks that probably have no control over what’s happening. Get that angry energy with some physical movement, like a workout with our clams!

Show notes

The CLAMline is open again, y’all!! We have three more wonderful messages from our fellow CLAMS that I’ll be responding to on the podcast!

Some key takeaways from this episode are:

I don’t care what Britney Spears is rocking on the ‘gram, low rise jeans should never make a comeback… ever!!
The small things keep us sane and pull us out of whatever funk we’re in. For Bennette, it’s moving her body in one of my workouts, and for Juju, it’s connecting with her fellow CLAMS!
Every single workout we do in the CLAM community is different, and that’s intentional. It keeps everyone guessing, excited, and motivated to keep tuning in!

3. Getting Out of a Fitness Rut | Shellphone Q&A Sep 06, 2022

Show notes

We have all experienced being in a fitness rut! Maybe you hit a plateau on your weight loss or muscle gain goals, or you feel uninspired and unmotivated to keep doing your workouts each week. It happens! In this episode, I’m opening up the CLAMline to a few listeners and answering their fitness rut comments and questions on the podcast! If you need motivation to get back into your fitness routine, this one’s for you!

Some key takeaways to pump your workout routine are:

Find joyful movement whenever the moment strikes. If you’re down to drop it like it’s hot in the grocery store when your jam comes on, DO IT! If you’re working out and your favorite hype song comes on, jump around or fist pump like there’s no tomorrow.
Make your home gym setup exciting and fun to look at and spend time in. Mine has bright lights that move with me. Yours might have motivational quotes up on the wall, or maybe a more serene vibe with candles
If you’re trying to reignite the flame in your fitness journey, buy yourself some new workout clothes. It is so much fun to treat yourself to a new outfit and show it off, knowing how amazing you look! Buy fun new workout gear and feel that motivation flowing back to you!

2. Dare to Do the Hard Shit Today… But Only If You Really Want to Sep 06, 2022

Show notes

I know it, you know it, your mama knows it: you can do hard things! But if doing the hard thing feels like a huge chore, this is the episode for you! I’m sharing a recent experience I had with putting myself out there and not doing so well, and getting honest with myself about whether I really wanted to put in the hard work to be the best at something I was passionate about. If you need a pep talk to get you through some hard shit this week, I got you!

Some key takeaways on doing hard shit:

It’s okay to have high expectations, but only if you’re willing to do the work. If you expect greatness to come to you from doing nothing, you’re gonna have a bad time.
Sometimes we need to have that difficult conversation with ourselves and ask: are we willing to do the hard work? If the answer is no, that is 100% okay! Move on to the thing where the answer to that question is HELL FREAKING YES!
Putting yourself out there and losing will always always always be better than sitting on the sidelines for fear of failure. Failing is hard, but we learn and grow so much every time we go through it. You got this!!

1. Who Is BodyByTrainor? The CLAM Community Origin Story Sep 06, 2022

Show notes

Welcome to the CLAM studio, y’all! In this first episode of the Talks With Your Trainor podcast, I’m sharing the origin story of how I started BodyByTrainor, or BBT for short! BBT has brought so many amazing humans into my life, and this episode is the who, what, when, and why behind the community that’s 35,000+ strong and counting!

IV Wellness by Nurse Joanie

Some key takeaways from this episode are:

BodyByTrainor was born seven years ago when I competed in my first ever bikini competition. I had about 300 followers (can you say “influencer?”) but I look back at the work I put in during this season of my life as evidence I can do anything!
After competing, I started learning the art of balance. Gaining weight and losing muscle in order to allow myself to live a sustainable lifestyle was (and still is!) so damn hard, but so worth it!
You’ll hear me refer to my “Clams,” which is what we call our community members! It originated from a leg day workout where we did a clamshell exercise and a few dirty jokes later, bada bing bada boom, the CLAM community was born!
