  1. Honestly this one isn’t even hypermobility specific, the regular clam just generally sucks for a lot of people and the Lock Clam is a MUCH better option. That said, if you’re hypermobile then there’s a decent chance that the TFL muscle causes some problems for you, and this is the muscle that tends to get overworked in the regular clam. So I’d say this is useful for everyone, but especially useful if you’re hypermobile. 🚨 Although as usual - the disclaimer that applies is that this exercise won’t work for every hypermobile person! If it doesn’t work for you, there are other options available. Here are some cues & tips I like for this one: 💪🏼 Hug the ground so your hips point into the floor 💪🏼 Brace properly through your mid section and upper body to prevent movement (you can even do some ab work as pre-activations to help feel these muscles lock in) 💪🏼 Move your knee only, not the rest of your body 💪🏼 Just move a small distance with your knee - range of motion is not the goal And possibly most important for us… 💪🏼 Keep the reps low if you need! Think about doing really high quality reps instead of banging out a tonne of them - when I do this exercise, sometimes I’ll just do 5 a side and leave it at that ——- This exercise was devised by a brilliant man - Andrew Lock - who I had the honour of knowing and working with. Unfortunately Andrew passed away not too long ago, but his legacy lives on through the work he did and the lives he improved. #heds #pots #mcas #audhd #hypermobility

  2. Let’s see if this one causes the same stir here as on TikTok😅 I can see the comments already… 🤔“You’re just listing out a bunch of things everyone has” 👇🏻 Well, kind of. A lot of people experience these things, but if you have ALL of them or a LOT of them & it’s really affecting your day-to-day life, it might be worth looking into. It’s NOT normal to be heavily affected by these & if you are there are ways to manage them. One of the false narratives around people with (undiagnosed) EDS/hypermobility is that we have “so many random problems”- when actually the problems aren’t random, they follow a pattern & hypermobility is at the centre. 🧐“Just because you have a bunch of symptoms doesn’t mean you have a whole syndrome” 👇🏻 Actually the definition of syndrome is a group of symptoms that consistently occur together, or a condition that’s characterised by a set of symptoms. In fact, a hEDS diagnosis literally involves sitting with a doctor & going through a list of signs/symptoms & if you tick off enough of them, it's an official diagnosis. 🤔“This is fear-mongering/pathologising” 👇🏻 No it’s not. It’s a common thing doctors screen for now when someone is diagnosed with ADHD/autism. IMO it’s kind of ableist to say this is fear-mongering, because you’re implying that having a chronic illness diagnosis is something that really needs to be feared. When in fact, it’s the reality of my life & many others’. This is not the same as googling benign symptoms & discovering through webMD that you “probably have cancer”. The fact is, if people are suffering with these symptoms they’re already living through the worst of it. Putting a name to it is incredibly liberating, from a mental perspective but also from a practical one. Unfortunately, we exist in a medical system where you often need a diagnosis in order to get proper help/care. I wish it wasn’t like this, but having a diagnosis opens doors. 🙋🏻 “Ok, what do I do now?” 👇🏻 Follow my account👀😝 No but seriously, there are LOTS of things you can do to manage hypermobility/EDS. Including exercise, lifestyle, dietary, & pharmaceutical interventions. Understanding what you’re dealing with is the first step.

  1. Imposter syndrome can hit at any level. 
While I’ve racked up quite the resume in powerlifting, sometimes I feel like the accomplishments were a fluke. IPF Collegiate Cup World Champion. 2x Arnold Sports Festival Winner. 3x Equipped National Champion. 2024 Equipped Nationals Best Lifter. 2024 Athlete of the Year.
 I see my name amongst legends on this list and feel like I don’t belong. That being said, I’m proud of the performances I put together over the past year. 

12/12 at the Arnold Sports Festival across two back to back meets to win the Equipped Pro Series Finals + place 3rd in the Equipped Bench Pro Series Finals.

Went 5 meets in a row without missing a single lift across both raw & equipped, PR’ing every single competition lift.

Won Equipped & Bench Nationals in the same weekend, coming away in 1st & 3rd all-around best lifter respectively. Again shaking off the feeling of “was it a fluke,” reminding myself that it was not.

This was built over a decade of being a competitive powerlifter and lifetime of being an athlete, coupled with on point programming & attempt calling from @hartmanperformance to solidify the perfect year. Incredibly grateful for all those who have been with me along this journey. There are far more than I can list in this post but know that I’m thankful for all of you.

Enjoy my favorite lifts from this past year captured by @barbellproductions 🎞️ @usapowerlifting @usapl.equipped @usapowerliftingwomen

  2. My FIRST month training to be a powerlifter with my coach @powerlifting_mom_tn ! When I asked her to coach me, I was already close to maxes, so we kicked off the first month with a Strength Build to Max block to truly assess where to start my training. This month was TOUGH, but honestly, I loved every second of it! This is totally my JAM 🔥 The highlight of my month? My 220lb squat, a +25lb PR! 😱 While it wasn’t quite to depth for powerlifting, my body worked HARD for that weight, and I know it’s only going to improve. Max weeks are about testing those limits, so my lifts weren’t pretty, but they are foundational and will only get better as we train. 🙌 Deadlifts? 252.5 lbs, and fun fact, I shorted myself a pound when I posted on my timeline last week (who knew the yellow pound plates weighed more than the yellow kg plates?! 🤣). But hey, I’m learning! On bench, I hit a +5lb PR and walked away with SO much knowledge about my form. Still a newbie, but making progress every day! I’m determined to get a plate by the time I compete! So far, my total is 572.5 lbs, and for this almost 50-year-old... I’m SUPER PROUD of that! 😎 It’s only going to get better. 💥 This block ends with a deload week, then we’ll focus on form building & volume in Block 2! I’m training for my FIRST-ever powerlifting meet as a 50th BIRTHDAY PRESENT to myself at the end of the year! 🎉 Strength as I age is the BEST gift I could ever give ME. Follow along as I prove that in midlife, we can LEARN new things and be STRONG AF!! #powerlifting #sbd #squats #deadlifts #midlifehealth #strongwomen

  3. My first mock meet is officially in the books and it was for such an amazing cause with @barbell_babes 💗 Compete for a CURE and with the hosting gym @cosfit22 was an unforgettable experience! The energy and encouragement were UNMATCHED. Every single lifter was so kind, supportive, and hype! It was AMAZING. I left feeling so inspired… and now I’m HOOKED 😍 Ready to do it all over again! I was in the Masters division 40+ and I got 2nd place out of 6 competitors 🥳This finished up month 3 of my powerlifting training at 49, and I still have a LOT to learn but I’m all in. I’ve picked my official sanctioned meet day for January 2026 and I’m building from here! Showing you my wins & my fails because this is not easy work! SQUAT: 175 lbs (79.4 kg) ⚪️⚪️⚪️ 200 lbs (90.7 kg) ⚪️⚪️⚪️ 225 lbs (102 kg) 🔴🔴🔴 ^ didn’t brace enough 😭! I know I’ve got the strength, I just need to lock in the technique. TWO plates… I’m coming for you! BENCH: 75 lbs (34 kg) ⚪️⚪️⚪️ 95 lbs (43 kg) ⚪️⚪️⚪️ 105 lbs (47.6 kg) ⚪️⚪️⚪️ DEADLIFT: 230 lbs (104.3 kg) ⚪️⚪️⚪️ 245 lbs (111.1 kg) ⚪️⚪️⚪️ 260 lbs (117.9 kg) ⚪️⚪️⚪️ I had so much FUN!!! 💪And a huge shoutout to my coach @powerlifting_mom_tn who also competed with me! You’ve taught me so much about powerlifting and you have been such an amazing light in my life. You’ve encouraged my love for powerlifting and reminded me that I am strong enough and that I belong here. That I’m allowed to take up space in a community I never thought I was strong enough to be part of. #powerlifting #midlifehealth #deadlifts #strongwomen
