107. How to Stay Consistent with Your Workouts

This week Amy is solo for a short and encouraging episode focused on one common challenge in motherhood: staying consistent with workouts. As a follow-up to the conversation about finding time to exercise with little kids, this episode is designed to be simple, practical, and motivating for moms navigating busy seasons of life.Amy shares why consistency in movement matters during motherhood and how this habit will continue lifelong. She encourages listeners to stay goal-oriented by keeping fitness goals realistic, simple, and attainable — especially during demanding seasons. A key theme of the episode is “proof of concept”: showing yourself that you can stay consistent even during tough weeks, whether that’s a sick child, a partner traveling for work, or a packed family schedule. Each small win reinforces confidence and resilience!Amy also highlights the importance of protecting workouts by supporting your body in other areas of life, including proper hydration, quality sleep, and fueling with nourishing foods. Amy emphasizes that these foundational habits set moms up for more effective and sustainable workouts. She closes with a powerful mindset shift for busy days — instead of crossing workouts off the to-do list, consider letting go of a less critical task like putting away the laundry. In this season of life, movement is essential and deserves to be prioritized! Consistency doesn’t require perfection — just intention, flexibility, and a commitment to caring for your body.If you enjoyed listening to this episode, we would love it if you could share it to your Instagram stories and tag us, @expectingandempowered.
