Hi, I’m Caylee! And at 38, I am the strongest, healthiest, fittest, and happiest I have ever been - but getting here wasn’t simple.
The road was full of trial and error because navigating the fitness space as a woman is beyond confusing.
I grew up in an era where thinness was next to godliness, and if you were hungry, the advice was to “just have a handful of almonds.” The world was constantly trying to shrink women. The only people lifting in gyms were hardcore “gym rats” or bodybuilders - mostly men. The only strong women I ever saw were on WWE, and that was only because my brother went through a wrestling phase.
For women, exercise came packaged as step aerobics, at-home DVDs, or group classes with 5 lb dumbbells. I remember one of my first YouTube workouts promising to help me “get a body like a Victoria’s Secret Angel.” No one was teaching women how to build muscle, fuel properly, or lift with purpose.
That all changed when I learned the truth: if I wanted to change my shape, I needed to stop trying to shrink myself and start building muscle. I swapped random circuits for progressive strength training, started eating enough to fuel my lifts, and tracked my progress instead of guessing.
The result? My energy came back, my body composition changed, and I finally felt confident and capable in my own skin. Now, I help other women do the same.
My coaching teaches you how to:
✅ Eat around true maintenance instead of chronic diet numbers
✅ Lift with structure and progression instead of random workouts
✅ Build muscle that creates your curves and confidence — without “bulking up”
Train With Purpose. Fuel With Intention. See Real Change
Phase 1/ Month 1: Goal Setting
Identification of your current patterns and behaviours that are either bringing you closer to or further away from your goals
Gain an understanding of your activity levels both at work and in leisure
Your workout program is delivered to you based on your training experience, current mobility restrictions, and specific goals.
Phase 2/ Months 2-4: Building New Habits
Intro to Macro and Calorie tracking
If our first goal is building muscle, we’ll focus on fueling your body with enough energy—through calorie maintenance or a surplus to support growth
If initial focus is fat loss, we gradually enter into a muscle sparring calorie deficit
Based on training experience, movement patterns are assessed as we strive for form mastery with a focus on building muscular endurance and tolerance
Phase 3/ Months 4-6: Growth
At this point you are able to more easily balance your macros, portion sizes, and choosing food that makes you feel good
Progress is still carefully tracked to ensure that you are on the right path towards your goals
Muscular strength and hypertrophy (growth) become the focus of your training - new and more challenging movement patterns are introduced as you continue to develop confidence in the gym
