My 3 year old just looked at this video and told me she wants muscles like you. She then showed me her calves that are getting bigger. Thanks for being an inspiration that it's ok to be more and not less, stronger and not smaller. ❤

[@danetspeaks8708]

Bless her heart 😍😍

[@burn_that_butter6829]

I love this -- and I hope 2 years after you said this that she still loves her little body!

[@mldavis79]

Your handwriting though, can we talk about how freakin’ perfect it is?! 🤣

[@faganfit572]

mldavis79 Was just about to say the same and saw this. No crab syndrome in those hands😆.

[@meretekotyk636]

From a teacher - she has teacher printing!

[@JohnB-ws4ge]

it really is impressive

[@rachelg9873]

Makes me feel like I have toddler handwriting. :(

[@karibarnhill6975]

Dana, you are amazing! I just turned 60 years old, and for years I’ve wanted to build big beautiful muscles while losing the blubber. My husband is my biggest support and my coach who is in her 30’s. Is wonderful and keeps me on track. I’ve lost friendships due to my fitness goals. My close friend and I talk about it but we cannot discuss it in front of her husband because of his thoughts that women, especially our age of 60 shouldn’t lift. It’s crazy.. I do the InBody weigh in every two weeks, since June 6th when I recommitted to my goals, I have lost 6% bodyfat and have gained 7lb of muscle mass! I’m seeing changes in my physique, I have a long ways to go but it’s a wonderful journey. My 30 year old son is proud of me and encourages me to continue on. Love the 5 fitness tip! And I love your videos, you are truly an inspiration for the young in heart.

[@Ailieorz]

I'm so sorry about your friendships, but so glad you keep lifting despite it. We need more of us to make it more normal so those behind us don't experience the same thing :)

[@laurajones5186]

I say keep it up too, well done with your journey forget what other people think. Jealousy is NEVER a good look either. Well done 🙌 keep lifting 💪

[@josephinearriaga7028]

Me too; I'm 64.

[@kathyharper7187]

Im 63 lift and run! Our age is just a number dont let anyone discourage you! You can do it!

[@DaisyJane1234]

I love that I am 60 and still strong and lifting weights! Keep going!

[@gwynnie6982]

You were my inspiration to get into lifting when I was on my first deployment! Youre amazing

[@PU72L3]

Thank you for your cervix 🤙🍻

[@Riververchi]

Those comments about steroids and "shave "her" mustache" in 99.9% comes from the guys who's arms are a size of your wrist. lmao.

[@emh8861]

Just ignore the trolls, they hate that.

[@physicaltech12]

🤣

[@jameshigginbothamiii8703]

Obviously, these trolls have no clue what a "roid" female really looks like, DLB is nowhere near looking like a "freak." Her gains are all natural, it's very evident.

[@KitKat-kb1iv]

I started my fitness journey two years ago and my body, mind and outlook on life has changed completely, thank you for my personal trainer. The pointer five on this video made me cry because the people, family members, I thought would support me, where the ones to try to pull me down with name callings, accusations and blaming me for wasting money. It's shocking and disappointing! I went from 34% body fat to 17% and gain alot of muscle. Their negative comments made me stronger and taught me to stay focused on what matters to me and what makes me happy. My motto in my gym is: I am doing this for me... Thank you Dana!

[@paigefutey2908]

I had no idea you were a health teacher, that explains why you’re so good at explaining things!! I love your inspiration and energy, you’re the best!

[@angeliquewilken6358]

This video came just at the right moment. Thank you so much, I was contemplating if I wanted to start working on my fitness today or rather tomorrow. I am starting tonight☆

[@Fatbam77]

Great content as always Dana 💕 #5 is so true... support is important but believing in yourself is even more powerful when the support is lacking!

[@dianacavagnaro8260]

You are making me cry. Thank you very much Dana. You are a great supporter.

[@rollingtumbleweed6279]

Honestly, this was a phenomenal video Dana! Thanks for the much needed pep talk girl!

[@melaniemurphy1005]

[@kelanthia]

This couldn't have been posted at a better time.. Thanks Dana!

[@HarryPlusDraco]

This is such a great resource. People always ask me my secret, etc, and now I can just point to this. This is 100% my journey, guided by an EXCELLENT personal trainer. Thank you for this! You’re my hero.

[@annlipsett42]

Thanks Dana. I really enjoyed listening to you. I started my fitness journey a while ago and I've done all of the things that you talked about in this video. It's so important to have a support system in place while you're trying to reach what ever goals you have set forth for yourself. My husband and our adult children are mine and it makes me feel good knowing I have there love and support. As for every one else, I could give a shit! If they don't like it to damn bad. I'm in my 50's which isn't always easy but I'm happy to say despite my age I'm gaining strength and endurance and I'm loving every minute of it! I look forward to more of these video's. Keep them coming. Also your a big motivating factor for me. I so admire you and what you have accomplished with your body. You look amazing!

[@besticanb9794]

Great video! Just what i was needing this AM..i have a feeling I'm going to be watching it often for motivation

[@corbinhudson9902]

Thanks For Sharing. I love your videos.

[@jaymill9036]

Great advice! Number 5 never ceases to amaze me. Here’s a suggestive gift in return for being a sincerely positive light that helps a lot of us on our fitness journeys (even a short vid that gets you to reset your head day to day and get after it helps). You two live in and around some the best fly fishing in the world ... if you haven’t already, give it a shot. I’ve been doing it for over 20 yrs and found that unplugging in crystal clear rivers and streams can do wonders for piece of mind. It’s part of my personal support system and a big part of the why I push to stay functional and fit.

[@jpm3209]

Hi Dana! I've only just found you maybe a month ago, but have been following you ever since. I really appreciate this video and wish that I had seen it when I started my training almost 3years ago. It's been a slow progression, but I love it and wouldn't change it for anything. But I think this really hits home and is valuable advice for anyone, wherever in life they decide to start. Keep up the great content!! Cheers

I so agree with the scale. Muscle weights more than fat. I was in the best shape of my life and weighed 173. I’m 5’7” and I am back at it again after being sidelined with some heath issues. I go by how I feel, how my clothes fit and how I look to my self. No one else’s opinion matters. I’m working on my personal best. Thank you for the inspiration and motivation.

[@leahromero1670]

When I started my fitness journey, I had some sense of what I was doing. I started to develop muscles and felt bulky like is this even possible. Then I somehow started to see you in my new feed and suddenly you gave me confidence to not be ashamed of being built. So as time goal you have always been my inspiration and I thank you for that. 😁♥️

[@Meechskii]

how did you build your muscles? I'm struggling

[@leahromero1670]

tav kye I started off by working on my upper body 3x a week. Did a lot of pushups, assistant pull ups, triceps chest press and all that. Took me a couple of months, but I was really consistent with it. Takes awhile because I would have to warm up my upper body to activate my muscles before I could get a good pump going.

[@Meechskii]

@@leahromero1670 thank you
