In this episode of Nacho Fitness Coach, Caleigh and Sara unpack a real-life situation that sparked a bigger conversation about fit shaming, body positivity, and where personal responsibility fits into health. We talk about bloating, food discomfort, “reading the room,” and why expressing how your body feels shouldn’t be treated as a moral failure. Along the way, we dig into BMI, body composition, carbs, protein, and the difference between loving your body and ignoring your health. This episode is an honest, nuanced conversation about boundaries, accountability, and choosing your hard—without apologizing for it.

In this episode, Caleigh and Sara talk about intensity—what it actually means, why most adults avoid it, and how doing slightly harder things for less time might be the missing piece in your fitness routine.

We get into why sprinting, jumping, and pushing your limits have quietly disappeared from adult life, and why that matters for strength, conditioning, bone health, and long-term mobility. We break down how short bursts of high-intensity work can deliver real benefits without requiring endless workouts, and why constantly choosing the “easier” option may be costing you more than you realize.

We also talk about squatting, getting up and down off the floor, impact training, and why losing these basic movements isn’t a normal part of aging—it’s a sign you stopped practicing them.

If you’ve ever felt stuck doing the same workouts over and over, convinced you need more time instead of a different approach, this episode is your reminder that sometimes the answer isn’t longer… it’s harder (for a minute or two).

In this episode, Caleigh and Sara dive into how AI is showing up in fitness, training decisions, and everyday health — whether we like it or not. We break down how artificial intelligence can actually be useful for things like programming workouts, adjusting training based on soreness, and making sense of data, without handing over all your common sense to a robot.

We talk about where AI helps and where it absolutely doesn’t, why context still matters more than any algorithm, and how knowing what questions to ask is just as important as the answers you get. We also unpack the growing fear around AI replacing jobs, what this means for trainers and coaches, and why adapting beats pretending this isn’t happening.

Along the way, we get into the risks of over-reliance, the difference between guidance and outsourcing your brain, and why the human side of coaching — judgment, experience, and accountability — still can’t be automated. This episode isn’t about hype or panic; it’s about using new tools wisely, staying critical, and remembering that your body isn’t a spreadsheet.

This week on Nacho Fitness Coach, Caleigh and Sara tackle the growing trend of hormone-focused fitness advice and the way women are being sold complexity disguised as empowerment. We break down cycle syncing, menopause protocols, and “hormone fixes,” and explain why none of them replace the basics. We talk about how fear-based marketing makes women feel broken, why simplicity actually works at every stage of life, and how exercise, nutrition, protein, fiber, and movement still matter—no matter your age or hormones. If fitness feels confusing or expensive, this episode is your reminder that you don’t need a special program to take care of your body.Connect with us on social media!

In this episode on Nacho Fitness Coach, Caleigh and Sara hit a big milestone—three years of podcasting together. We take some time to reflect on how this whole thing started, the many directions it’s gone, and the countless laughs along the way. We ramble (as usual), reminisce, and talk about the small things that somehow turned into something pretty meaningful. We also want to say a huge thank you to everyone who’s tuned in, stuck around, shared the show, or told us they listen while walking, lifting, or laying on the floor questioning their life choices. We appreciate you more than you know, and we’re excited to keep doing this with you.

This week on Nacho Fitness Coach, Caleigh and Sara dive into what was supposed to be a simple, wholesome experiment that somehow turned into a full-blown lifestyle disruption: raising meat chickens. Caleigh walks us through how a few innocent chicks quickly became a daily responsibility, an emotional rollercoaster, and a crash course in “oh wow, this is actually happening.”

We laugh (a lot) about the things no one tells you when you decide to raise your own food, while also getting real about discomfort, responsibility, and what it means to opt out of convenience—even when you wildly underestimate what you’re signing up for. Somehow, this ridiculous chicken story turns into a bigger conversation about intentional choices, modern detachment from food, and doing hard things without romanticizing them.

It’s chaotic, uncomfortable, unexpectedly thoughtful, and proof that sometimes the lesson shows up disguised as meat birds.

In this episode, Caleigh and Sara get real about the mental load of “being healthy” and why modern wellness can feel like a full-time job. We talk about how tracking everything (sleep, steps, water, HRV, supplements, macros, deep sleep percentages, you name it) can turn into stress instead of support, and how the constant stream of conflicting fitness advice makes it even harder to know what actually matters.

We also dig into the difference between helpful structure and neurotic optimization, why “just start with a 20-minute walk” is both valid and kind of wild in today’s sedentary world, and how we’re trying to simplify: quality food, movement, water, sleep… and letting the rest be optional. Plus: a mini rant about recycling rules, sleep trackers that roast you daily, and the holy grail of routines that don’t require you to become a robot.

This week on Nacho Fitness Coach, Caleigh and Sara test whether cottage cheese deserves its viral, high-protein glow-up or if the internet has officially gone too far. We taste our way through cottage cheese pizza bowls, ranch dip, chocolate pudding, and a surprisingly legit strawberry “ice cream,” all with zero practice runs and very honest reactions. We talk texture issues, protein hacks, what actually tastes good, and whether any of these swaps are worth making in real life. If you’ve been side-eyeing cottage cheese all over your feed and wondering if it’s genius or garbage, this episode finds out so you don’t have to.
