Dillbell: Why Are We So Afraid of Lifting Real Weights?

Explicit

This week on Nacho Fitness Coach, Caleigh and Sara dive headfirst into the bizarre world of fake fitness—literally. From prop dumbbells to questionable silicone workout toys (yes, we’re looking at you, Dill Bell), we’re calling out the ridiculous trends that somehow keep going viral. But between the laughs and side-eyes, we’re also asking the real question: Why is there still so much resistance to picking up actual heavy weights?

We talk about the physical and mental benefits of strength training, the lingering myths around “bulking up,” and how women are often sold gimmicks instead of empowerment. Plus, Caleigh explains why she’ll be cheering on the sidelines in her Taekwondo Mom Era, and Sara brings the fire (again) about why lifting heavy isn’t just for gym bros.

Come for the laughs, stay for the unsolicited parent ...
