Bobby’s Story
When I started the Hitch Fit Lose Weight Feel Great Program, I weighed 275 pounds at 6’3”. I knew I needed a change and was determined to follow the plan 100%. The meal plan was straightforward, and I stuck to it, which was a game-changer for me.

There were definitely tough days. Sometimes, I couldn’t complete my full workout at the gym, but I always pushed myself to get as much done as possible. There were mornings when I had to miss my cardio session, but I made sure to fit it in later that day or the next. I stayed committed to the process, and in 16 weeks, I’ve lost 55 pounds—with one more week to go in my 16-week program.
Now, I feel incredible and am ready to sign up for a maintenance plan to keep the weight off. I couldn’t have achieved this without the guidance and support of Micah at Hitch Fit. His coaching kept me focused and motivated every step of the way. If you’re ready for a transformation, Hitch Fit is the way to go.

Diane’s Hitch Fit Fit over 45 Transformation Story:
“My journey and decision to live a more fit lifestyle started in May 2021.
I had always been active, and though there had been some years of yo-yoing in my 30’s, the breaking point came one morning on my drive home after a long night shift. I was finishing up a travel nurse contract, and my 45th birthday road trip was just around the corner. I was the heaviest I had ever been, and in the worst mental space, I could ever remember!
Nursing through Covid and seeing people my age dying had taken its toll.My husband and I found each other later in life, and we were empty nesters after 20 years of raising seven kids and finally free to pursue everything we wanted to do, but I was mentally and physically a mess.
We decided to hire coaches and go all in for five months to change our bodies. We went on several fitness retreats, and through those retreats, we met Micah and Diana and discovered Hitch Fit.
Frank and I knew that to take our bodies to another level, and we had to have coaches to get us there. Now, fitness isn’t just a hobby. It’s what we do; transforming our body has become our mission. Teaming up with them has helped us to realize anything is possible no matter your age or where you are in your fitness journey!”
Fitness Plans for Women over 40. If you’re over 40 and feeling stuck and aren’t sure if you can make the changes to your fitness that you’re hoping for, Diane’s story will provide you with hope and inspiration! Diane began following Hitch Fit after seeing a transformation story that truly inspired her. She had several goals, including getting back to her pre-pregnancy weight (which she achieved!) and learning more about what it would take to build muscle, get lean and eventually do a fitness show.
She began her Hitch Fit journey with a Fitness Model plan. Diane shed 10 pounds of fat and reduced her body fat by 10% throughout the course of her plan. Diane worked on the habit development side of things, but she also worked on a lot of mindset shifts too, really tackling old thought patterns and creating new, supportive ones. So proud of her for doing that work. At one point, Diane was looking at Hitch Fit transformation stories and using them for inspiration. It is such a beautiful thing that SHE is now the transformation story that will serve inspiration for you! If you are ready, start your transformation journey today at the link below.

How to Get back to Pre-Pregnancy Weight
“I have always been curious how Fitness/Bikini Competition models achieved such amazing transformations in such a short period of time and now I know how!
My goal was not to step on stage but to learn how to get to my pre-pregnancy weight and size in the most efficient, effective way. I also want to have a blueprint for achieving fitness competition shape if I decide to pursue that as a later goal.
Now, I am not only able to fit in my pre-pregnancy size 2 clothes, but my size 2 clothes fit loose on me, and my body fat % is in the teens! Diana guided me on how to break my plateau, drop inches, pounds, and fat to hit my goal of fitting in my pre-pregnancy jeans in 10 short weeks! She also showed me how to maintain the results.
Before Hitch Fit, I was able to lose about 15 lbs on my own after having 2 wonderful children, but once I hit about 117-120 lbs I plateaued and could not hit less than 20% body fat or maintain less than 117 lbs. I was on this endless cycle of working out harder and longer and eating less and less with very little progress.
Get in Fitness Model Shape over 40
I did a search for how to get in competition shape without having to compete, and Crystal’s Transformation Story came up, which prompted me to subscribe to Hitch Fit’s mailing list. This is funny because as I was about to complete my online Hitch Fit Look Like a Fitness Model Plan, I asked Diana for a success story for bulking and cutting because I was curious about the Hitch Fit Get Big Get Ripped Plan and she sent me Crystal’s story again – it came full circle!
I was amazed by the incredible Hitch Fit Transformations and would frequent the success stories often since first subscribing. After about 1 year of trying to hit my goals on my own with a 6-day strength training split, and experimenting with different macros and diets while staying on my endless plateau, I was finally ready to reach out and transform with Hitch Fit.
Diana has been an amazing guide on this journey from a physical, mental, and emotional aspect. She has helped me find a positive, healthy, maintainable place of grace. She helped me build a better relationship with body, mind, health, and nutrition, as well as how to still work towards goals while traveling and on vacation.
After week 10, I was battling myself because part of me was very happy with what I already achieved, and part of me wanted to pursue learning more; I was beating myself up about it and Diana worked with me through the self-doubts and criticisms that surfaced.
I decided to enjoy what I achieved thus far and learn how to maintain where I was. I hit fitness goals in the past but always had trouble maintaining them, so I wanted to make sure I could keep the results this time. I transitioned to maintenance since I was not planning to compete, and my body was in a place where I felt happy and healthy.
After successfully learning and enjoying how to maintain nutrition and exercise up to week 16, the end of my Fitness Model Plan, I made a new goal: build muscle. I love to lift and have always wanted to learn how to bulk and cut. I am now doing the Hitch Fit Get Big Get Ripped Plan with Micah and my husband has signed up for his own Get Big Get Ripped Plan as well!
My advice to you is: if you are truly ready to learn how to transform and make the changes needed to deliver the results you have always wanted, reach out to Hitch Fit now. You will learn how to achieve and maintain your goals with the most amazing guides, Diana and Micah.
I wish I had known about Hitch Fit sooner. You will learn how to get the results you want and keep them; you will work smarter. The Look Like a Fitness Model Plan had me eating more and working out less than I was doing on my own before the plan.
Thank you, Diana, for guiding me on this really fun, transformative journey, and thank you, Micah, for the journey we are on now!”
Stephen Wilson Jr. was a scientist working for Mars, Inc. (Yeah, the Candy company).
One day, his boss pulled him into an office and said something that changed his life:
“Stephen, you’re about to get promoted.”
Normally a cause for celebration, this was instead meant as a warning by his boss.
In a past life, Stephen had been a guitarist in a small indie rock band. He also spent his evenings writing songs.
His boss knew Stephen was a damn good songwriter, and where he really belonged.
He told Stephen about the golden handcuffs:
“You’re in line for a promotion and they’re grooming you for the next level.
And you’re kind of at a crossroads.
Because if you take [the promotion], like I took it 30 years ago, your dreams of being a songwriter, they’re gonna be gone. This is going to consume every bit of you.
Right now you can write songs and do this job, but 6 months from now I’m not sure you’re gonna be able to. So I just want to give you a warning.”
That tiny voice in Stephen’s head, that had been there for years and years, started to get louder.
6 weeks later, with that inner voice now at a deafening volume, he put in his 2 weeks notice, which confused everyone (except his boss and his wife).
He started bartending and waiting tables to make ends meet while honing his craft, trying to get publishing deals in country music…while getting rejected for not writing“bro country” songs:
He was told, “you write REAL songs. We can’t do nuthin’ with that…”
Years later, after some modest success writing songs for other musicians, he finally worked up the courage and experience and clout to start recording his own songs.
And last year, he finally put out his debut album, Son of Dad, which Rolling Stone called one of the best albums of 2023.
(Seriously, please watch this video. It’ll give you goosebumps!).
Golden Handcuffs vs Uncomfortable Expansion
From 2008-2010, I also lived a dual life.
I had my day job at Sixthman, helping promote and produce floating music festivals. But I also spent my nights and weekends working on a little website helping nerds get fit.
My boss April and my mentor Andy (who owned the business) both knew where my heart was; they encouraged me to chase the uncomfortable future of trying to make Nerd Fitness into my career.
16 years later, we’re still going strong!
In Oliver Burkeman’sFour Thousand Weeks, he encourages us to ask a specific question when making decisions in life:
“Where in your life or your work are you currently pursuing comfort, when what’s called for is a little discomfort?”
Asking ourselves “what would make me happiest” will most likely lead us towards the short term, comfortable, safe option.
Instead, we should be thinking which path will make us GROW as a person, or which version will cause us to SHRINK each week. We probably, deep down inside, know the answer to the question, if we have the courage to ask it.
Burkeman’s advice:
“Choose uncomfortable enlargement over comfortable diminishment whenever you can.”
Yep, sometimes chasing “uncomfortable enlargement” doesn’t result in a songwriting deal, or a successful business. I’ve chosen the uncomfortable path and sometimes things don’t work out. But that’s part of the process, and at least it removes the potential for unhealthy regret!
Which brings me to today’s mission.
Let’s get comfortable with being uncomfortable
Let’s chase uncomfortable expansion in 2025.
When we strength train, we force our muscles to get uncomfortable by lifting heavier and heavier weight – they respond by growing and adapting.
If we use food as a coping mechanism when we’re sad or angry or bored, addressing our relationship with food can be uncomfortable.
When we have uncomfortable conversations, we can finally deepen our relationships or stand up for the things that are important to us.
In 2025, let’s ask the question:
Where in your life are you snugly living in comfort and safety, when deep down you know the path of “uncomfortable enlargement” is what you really need to grow and help you get what you really want?
You might not need to quit your job immediately, or go all-in on a new goal or change…
But it could be worth asking yourself that uncomfortable question.
Life is hard, and change is harder.
Uncomfortable.
Scary.
Messy.
But if you’re willing to say NO to comfort, it might be exactly what you need.
Benefits of Strength Training for Women Over 40: As women enter their 40s and beyond, many experience changes in their bodies, including slower metabolism, muscle loss, and a decline in bone density. However, there’s one powerful solution that can help counteract these changes: strength training. While many people associate strength training with bulking up, it’s actually a highly effective way to improve overall health, especially for women over 40. If you haven’t already, incorporating strength training into your fitness routine can bring a host of physical and mental benefits. Here’s why you should start lifting weights (or using bodyweight exercises) today!
Builds and Maintains Lean Muscle Mass
As we age, it’s natural to lose muscle mass, a condition known as sarcopenia. By the age of 40, women can start losing as much as 3–8% of muscle mass per decade. Strength training is one of the most effective ways to combat this loss. Regular resistance exercises, like lifting weights or using resistance bands, help stimulate muscle growth and preserve lean muscle mass.
Maintaining muscle as you age not only helps you look toned but also supports overall strength and mobility. The more muscle you have, the more calories your body burns at rest, which can also assist in managing weight.
Improves Bone Health
Women are at a higher risk of developing osteoporosis, especially after menopause, due to a drop in estrogen levels. Osteoporosis causes bones to become fragile and more prone to fractures. Strength training plays a critical role in strengthening bones and improving bone density.
When you lift weights, you put stress on your bones, which triggers them to adapt and become stronger. Studies show that regular strength training can increase bone density and reduce the risk of fractures, particularly in the spine, hips, and wrists.
Boosts Metabolism and Aids Weight Management
A slower metabolism is another common change women experience as they age, making it harder to maintain or lose weight. Strength training can help combat this by building lean muscle. Muscle tissue burns more calories at rest than fat tissue, so the more muscle you have, the higher your resting metabolic rate (RMR) will be.
Incorporating strength training into your routine can increase your calorie burn, even when you’re not exercising, making it easier to maintain a healthy weight. Additionally, strength training helps balance insulin levels, which can aid in controlling blood sugar and reducing the risk of developing Type 2 diabetes.
Benefits of Strength Training for Women Over 40: Improves Posture and Reduces Back Pain
As we age, we may experience a decline in posture due to muscle weakness, particularly in the back, shoulders, and core. Strength training helps correct this by strengthening the muscles that support your spine and posture.
A stronger core, for example, helps you maintain a straight, upright posture and prevents slumping or rounding of the shoulders. Moreover, strengthening your back muscles can alleviate or prevent lower back pain, which is a common complaint among women in their 40s and beyond.
Enhances Mental Health and Reduces Stress
Strength training is not just beneficial for your body; it also has profound mental health benefits. Regular exercise, including weight training, is known to release endorphins, the body’s natural “feel-good” hormones. This can help alleviate feelings of stress, anxiety, and even symptoms of depression.
Strength training also enhances self-esteem and confidence. As you gain strength and see improvements in your physical appearance and abilities, you’re likely to feel more empowered and positive about your body. This can create a sense of accomplishment and well-being that extends beyond the physical benefits.
Improves Balance and Reduces Fall Risk
As we get older, our balance tends to decline, increasing the risk of falls and injuries. Strength training, especially exercises that focus on the legs, core, and lower body, helps improve balance and stability. By strengthening the muscles responsible for maintaining posture and balance, you can reduce the likelihood of falls.
Exercises like lunges, squats, and deadlifts help build leg and core strength, which are key components of stability. Better balance means more confidence in daily activities like walking, climbing stairs, or even standing up from a chair.
Benefits of Strength Training for Women Over 40: Increases Energy Levels and Combat Fatigue
Many women in their 40s and beyond report feeling more fatigued as they juggle work, family, and other responsibilities. Strength training can be a powerful antidote to low energy. As you build muscle and increase your stamina through weight training, your overall energy levels tend to rise.
Lifting weights can also improve cardiovascular health, which plays a key role in overall vitality. The increased circulation and oxygen supply to your muscles during strength training promote better endurance, leaving you feeling more energetic and less fatigued in your daily activities.
Promotes Better Sleep
Quality sleep becomes harder to come by as we age, and many women over 40 experience sleep disruptions due to hormonal changes, stress, or other factors. Fortunately, regular strength training can help improve the quality of your sleep. Exercise increases the production of hormones that help regulate sleep patterns and can reduce insomnia and nighttime wakefulness.
Additionally, a good strength training session can tire your muscles in a healthy way, helping you to feel more relaxed and ready for rest when bedtime comes.
