Ep 33: Less Perfect, More Fun

In this episode of Muscles and Malarkey, I’m sharing a full training update as I head into my deadlift-only meet held by Sunday Service in Fort Mill, SC.
I recently started working with a new coach (shoutout to Kim aka Joyful Lifter), and this shift has completely changed my perspective on training. Sometimes a fresh set of eyes is all it takes to remind you what this sport is supposed to feel like—fun, challenging, and meaningful.
We also get into a mindset I see way too often: waiting for “perfect.” Perfect timing, perfect readiness, perfect conditions. The truth? That moment never really comes. And chasing it often turns into procrastination in disguise.
Instead, I’ve been focusing on showing up as I am, letting go of comparison, and rebuilding trust in the process—both in training and in myself.
If you’ve ever felt stuck, pressured, or like you’re not where you “should” be, this episode is your reminder that progress doesn’t come from perfection—it comes from consistency, perspective, and learning to enjoy the process again.
