137: Finding my Goldilocks in training

from Strength + Self Hosted by Courtney Ustrzycki

This episode is for anyone who’s ever swung between extremes in training, doubted their own knowledge, or felt stuck in their physique progress. The real story of how I went from doing everything myself… to giving up all control… to finally landing in the middle... I call it my Goldilocks in training. After 15+ years of coaching, competing, programming, burning out, and rebuilding, (I think?!) I finally hit a breakthrough. Not from adding more, but from understanding why my body responds the way it does. With new guidance, clearer direction, and a fresh perspective, I’m blending what I know with what I’m learning, and so far it’s working. It's slow, it's snail process, but it's process. And the snail is going in the direction we need it to. It’s been about trusting the process, fixing weak points, and finding the approach that feels 'just right,' with less extremes and more alignment. instagram.com/courtney_ifbbpro coachcourtneypro.com
