what makes practice brave different?

  SMART (AND FUN) PROGRAMMING 

Anyone can throw together random workouts and call it a program. We plan strategic monthly programming that is designed to build strength and improve your conditioning.

   We get your changing body

Postpartum can leave you with a body that feels different or confusing. That feeling can linger for months or years after the birth of your baby. We are strength & conditioning coaches who also have a specialty in pregnancy and postpartum. We know how to guide you through experiences like prolapse, diastasis recti, and incontinence and provide additional training that teaches you how to approach the program while navigating these experiences. 

   WE GET YOUR LIFE

Gone are the days of spending unlimited amounts of time in the gym. Life with kids is chaotic, but your training doesn’t have to be. 

   WE PURSUE A LIFETIME OF ATHLETICISM

Life is athletic and we want you prepared for it. Whatever your fitness passions are, a solid strength and conditioning program helps you to pursue those passions for decades to come. 

   WE AREN'T DIET FOCUSED

We don’t focus on strict diets nor use before and after photos. We encourage sustainable nutrition practices that leave you feeling good and performing your best during workouts. If losing weight is your goal, the programming will be a great tool in your toolkit.

we believe:

  Being strong builds confidence. Confidence improves every aspect of your life, including body image. 
  Training should work with your life, not define your life.

who is using practice brave?

  • Name: Desire
  • Fitness Background: CrossFit
  • ​Occupation: Therapist
What brought you to the program?
"I love going to CrossFit classes, but after my first baby was born it became challenging to make it there consistently. Between breastfeeding, a colicky baby, and the stress of a full time job, I had no extra time or capacity to drive to the gym. The programming was perfect for the stage of life I was in. I was able to do the full equipment programming in about 35 minutes a day, building strength in a way that was manageable for my life right now."
  • Name: Miranda
  • Fitness Background: MMA
  • ​Occupation: Professional Athlete
What brought you to the program?
"I am a professional UFC fighter, so pushing myself is in my DNA. I knew that I needed to be smart with my recovery postpartum in order to return to the Octagon. Practice Brave created a foundation of strength before I turned up my intensity and returned to my MMA specific training. 
I’m so glad that I spent several months doing the programming. It made me stronger and a more versatile athlete."
  • Name: Collette
  • Fitness Background: CrossFit
  • ​Occupation: Travel Blogger
What brought you to the program?
"I worked with Bri throughout my pregnancy and postpartum period. After finishing the 8 week postpartum program I was still nervous about building intensity, I wasn’t sure what I was ready for. I trusted this program to give me strategic structure vs random workouts.
I’m now feeling stronger than ever and I’m so glad I took the time to rebuild my baseline of fitness."
  • Name: Jordyn
  • Fitness Background: Collegiate Athlete
  • ​Occupation: Childcare
What brought you to the program?
"During covid I needed programming I could do at home. I had been running, doing lots of HIIT, and not seeing any results. Heather got me started on Practice Brave and I loved it immediately. It reminded me of my days in the college weight room - it was fun training like an athlete again. 
I’m not a mom, but the programming was still great for me. I’ve built tons of strength and have PR’d several of my lifts. My clothes fit better and I’m able to get my workouts done in about 30 minutes in my home gym."
  • Name: Taylor
  • Fitness Background: CrossFit
  • ​Occupation: Finance
What brought you to the program?
"I have worked with Heather on and off for years. When I told her about my nagging hip and back injuries she suggested The Practice Brave Programming. I was a little skeptical since I was used to high volume and lots of intensity. After starting the program I was sore in the best way possible. I’m learning how to slow down and engage my muscles instead of speed through everything.
I’ve had 6 kids so I need lots of strength to help the strain carrying all those babies had on me. As a full time working mom I’m able to do the programming in my home gym and I’m experiencing much less back pain."
  • Name: Alli
  • Fitness Background: Lifelong Athlete 
  • ​Occupation: Music Industry
What brought you to the program?
I had a variety of pre-existing injuries before having a baby. After the birth of my 2nd child I wanted to recover and rebuild while also honoring the healing that my body needed. At this stage of life I need simple and straight forward programming that wouldn’t aggravate any of my symptoms.
