Baddie In Progress Podcast

Every few months you decide you're going to "lock in." That you're going to be consistent, dial in your nutrition, show up to every workout. And then two weeks later you're back to square one wondering why you can't just lock in.  You skipped a step. In this episode I'm talking about why discipline isn't something you can just decide to have — and why the pe...

I work in both worlds — group Pilates classes every morning, and 1:1 coaching with women trying to lose fat and build muscle. This week I'm breaking down what group fitness (Pilates, HIIT, cycling, all of it) is actually good for, and where it falls short if your goal is changing your body. We're covering: Why group classes are built to make you feel good, not to progressively overload y...

I'm breaking down my actual supplement stack this week — no crazy routine, just what I take and why. The 2 I take daily: Women's multivitamin (liquid, from Mary Ruth's) Creatine — my #1 non-negotiable supplement We're talking about why creatine deserves way more credit for women specifically: supporting muscle and bone mass (especially heading into perimenopause/menopause), red...

No fitness today lol. Taking you through why I love Halloween and why it's such a big deal in the Martinez Household. From core childhood memories, to meeting the love of my life, to getting engaged ... it's become a celebration, a tradition, and a way to honor my mom.  click here to send fan mail :) my instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/andreamartinez.fit/

This week I'm talking about something that comes up constantly in my DMs: feeling intimidated at the gym — especially in the weight section, especially as a woman in a male-dominated space. We're breaking down: Why 90% of the "everyone's watching me" feeling is all in your head Why the weight section isn't just "for the guys" — you're paying for that me...

If you've been putting off getting your nutrition together because you don't have time to meal prep on Sundays — this episode is going to change things for you. I'm a fitness coach. I'm in shape. And I do not spend three hours on a Sunday prepping a week's worth of food. Not even close. In this episode I'm walking you through exactly how I eat every single week — brea...

I saw a post this week that claimed five Pilates moves will flatten your stomach. And I need to address it — because it's not the full picture and women deserve better information than that. I'm a Pilates instructor. I'm also a strength coach. And I'm telling you that no workout, no matter how many times you do it, is going to give you a flat stomach on its own. The real work i...

Fair warning — you can probably hear my dogs in the background of this one. I'm recording from my couch at 8:30 in the morning, running on bad sleep, with cramps that have been beating my ass for three days straight. I called in subs for my other 3 classes this morning. I feel completely terrible. And I'm here anyway. Because that's the point. This is episode 12 and I haven't m...

You're tracking your macros. You're showing up to the gym. You're trying to stay consistent. And you still feel like garbage, can't stop eating, and your results have stalled. Before you download another program or cut another food group — when's the last time you got 8 hours of sleep? In this episode I'm getting personal about what I've noticed in my own body wh...

In this episode I'm talking about the real reason women stay stuck even when they know exactly what to do — and it has nothing to do with motivation, willpower, or discipline. It's about consistency, identity, and what it actually takes to become the woman who follows through instead of the woman who keeps starting over. And at the end I'm sharing something I do once a year that I&a...

A few weeks ago I was doing everything right. Hitting my 10k steps, tracking my macros more consistently than ever, showing up to every workout. And I was still in my head. Still questioning myself. Still wondering why I wasn't seeing the physical changes I was working toward. Then last week it happened. My legs and arms looking more toned and lean than ever. Feeling like I'm in the best...

Episode 8: In this episode I'm getting into something nobody in the fitness industry wants to say out loud — "I can't afford it" is almost never actually about the money. It's about not believing you'll follow through. It's about being scared to try again and fail again. It's about not wanting to admit that the only thing standing between you and your goal i...

Episode 7: You did everything right this week. Hit your macros, got your workouts in, stayed on track. Then the weekend happened and by Sunday you're back to square one wondering what went wrong. In this episode we're talking about why the weekend keeps derailing your progress — whether you're restricting so hard all week that Friday becomes a free-for-all, or you genuinely don&apos...

Episode 6: If you've been going to the gym consistently and your body still looks exactly the same as it did six months ago — this episode is for you. And before you blame your genetics, I need you to ask you one question: are you grabbing the same weights every single time? In this episode I'm breaking down progressive overload — what it actually is, why your body stops changing when yo...

Episode 5: Every woman who's ever told me she doesn't think she can do it — I want you to hear this. That feeling didn't come out of nowhere. It came from years of telling yourself you were going to do something and not doing it. Small things. Big things. Doesn't matter. Every time you broke that promise to yourself, you made your own words mean a little less. In this episode w...

Episode 4: Last week I strength trained 3 times instead of 5. I made it to Pilates on the days I couldn't get to the gym. My protein wasn't at 130g every day — so I aimed for 100g instead and kept moving. And at no point did I spiral, quit, or decide to start over Monday. In this episode I'm pulling back the curtain on what an off-track week actually looks like — not the dramatic ki...

Episode 3: I teach Pilates everyday, and I'm about to tell you it's not going to give you the toned look you're after. In this episode, I'm breaking down what "toned" actually means, why lifting weights is the missing piece, and where the fear of getting "bulky" even came from. If Pilates has been your whole plan, this one might change things for you.

Episode 2: In this episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes a bit — how I actually got into coaching, and why my approach looks different from what you've probably been told before. We're talking about getting real results without forcing your way through restriction, and why "I've tried everything" might not mean what you think it means. If you've ever felt lik...

Episode 1: Welcome to Baddie in Progress. This is me, why I started this podcast, and who it's for. If you've ever felt like you lost yourself somewhere between saying yes to everyone and putting yourself last — this podcast is for you. No fluff, no filler. Just real talk about what this show is and why I built it for you.
