Hey , welcome to
The 2026 Muscle Mami Challenge
Welcome to a training program that fits your life AND brings results!
This expert-designed program is a full 8-week strength program designed for busy women who want lasting results. Build real strength, shape your body, improve your movement, and increase your confidence!
This program includes two important features:
1) We follow a functional training approach, so that you work with your body holistically.
2) A whole foods based meal plan is included to compliment the workouts and promote body recomposition.
What does this mean? If you commit to this process, you have a high likelihood of reaching great aesthetic results (because who doesn’t want shapely legs, round glutes, and toned arms?) while moving better, feeling better, and investing into your longevity!

Dont Forget to Take Your Progress Photos
Celebrating progress along the way is a big part of what we do here in the MA Warrior Community.
Let’s face it, when you look at yourself in the mirror every day, many times you miss the small changes that are happening (that will add up to big results!).
Progress photos help to encourage you along the way!
If you are competing in the 2026 New Year’s Challenge, it’s very important to follow the instructions below regarding submitting your progress photos!
Please note: Progress photos are required to compete in the challenge, but photos and video is recommended.
You can see an example of a progress video here (you may submit the before and after video as separate files).
- Take your initial progress photo holding a sign in your hand (not taped on a wall) that says “2026 New Year’s Challenge” with the date and your Instagram handle. Please take your photo in front of a plain wall with good lighting and hold the sign to the SIDE of you so we can see your body!
- Submit your progress photo at the start of the challenge using the link below.
- Put that work in throughout the 8 weeks! You’ve got this!
- At the end of the challenge, take your ending photo holding a sign in your hand with the same information as before and submit again using the link below. This time, please include your before and after pictures in the same submission to make it easier for our review team.
Awards
By participating in the 2026 Muscle Mami Challenge, you get a chance to win awards!
We do encourage you to take and submit progress photos because our team will review them and potentially award not only exceptional progress but also consider those who were active in helping to build strong community. This community qualification is very important because we understand that community is key to maintaining your results and a healthy lifestyle, and we are truly stronger together!
You may submit your progress photos here.

Yes, but in this community we focus on body recomposition. What I mean is that we are focusing on optimizing your body to its full potential. If you have excess fat to lose, that is included in the equation, but the way it works is that we focus on building muscle, increasing performance, and cleaning up the nutrition. By building muscle, you will naturally burn more calories at rest each day. By increasing performance, you will burn more calories in each workout and also build more muscle. By cleaning up your nutrition, you will reduce inflammation, balance hormones, and heal your metabolism. In this way, the fat will naturally shred off and your body will begin to optimize.
Focus on building habits during this program and create realistic expectations. You aren’t going to dramatically change in one week, but by using the method that I have taught for 10+ years, you will build habits that bring change bit by bit. Doing it this way will allow you to keep your results long-term because your habits direct your life!
So, focus on these areas: consistency in movement, meals, hydration, and sleep. That’s it! Show up for yourself every day and you are going to be absolutely amazed at what happens. As a side note, do yourself a favor and push yourself in every workout! This is how you will maximize your results.
Absolutely! Your meal plan includes a healthy swap guide that you can use to add variety or to switch out something that’s not your preference.
One common question asked is if you can mix up the meal plans, such as eat a breakfast from one and a lunch from another. In short, if you are wanting to stick to the suggested amount of calories in each meal plan, follow the weekly menu as is (with the exception of swapping out an ingredient for which you’ve already compared the macros). Each menu is designed looking at the overall calories/macros for the day. If you are wanting to swap out an entire meal, this will just take some homework on your end to compare the macros of both meals and ensure they are similar.
No. It’s important to remember that on active rest days, your body is still doing the hard work of building muscle and needs the appropriate fuel! You don’t have to worry about storing excess calories. If you are putting in the work on your movement days, your body will use the food you eat on your rest days for this muscle building and recovery.
Progress photos are an amazing way to track your progress! Though not necessary, they can encourage you on your journey. When you look at yourself in the mirror every day, you may not notice changes right away. Sometimes we are our own worst critics. However, by comparing progress photos, you can see the change more clearly! I also encourage taking progress videos. Take videos of those movements that you are struggling with during the first weeks and then take videos of those same movements later in the program or if you do another round, and let the progress motivate you to keep pushing forward!
