Pulling this out of drafts to hopefully inspire me to do some more silly videos now that our ice is in this week!

What do you need me to help you with!? On ice? Off ice?

Ps IG is for being SILLY and clickable. My YouTube channel, podcast, website/blog and of course paid offerings are where the true education and “professionalism” comes in. If you’re new here - welcome! This is a safe & accepting space for all levels of curler, & fitness level.

Let’s have some fun!

Every curling season I share a version of these free resources that you’re welcome to share with your curling friends, team and club.

DM me “curling time!” & I’ll send you the PDF version of the Back to Curling Resource Guide with some simple tips for those first few practices, including warm-up ideas and basic delivery and brushing considerations.

The focus is less on “getting in shape for curling” and more on moving well, easing back into the demands of the ice, and helping curlers build good habits that can keep them moving well throughout the season.

I’ll also share some printable resources that I’d love for you to share around the club, if your club allows it. They include QR codes that take curlers directly to the free resources, so you can print them and post them on bulletin boards, in the locker room, at the club entrance, or wherever your members are likely to see them.

My goal with both is pretty simple: give curlers a few practical things that are within their control as they transition back onto the ice, with the hope of reducing some of the aches, pains and avoidable issues that can come with suddenly going from very little curling to several practices and games a week.

And if you are already curling, it’s not too late to start working on your preparation!

A few other resources you may want to pass along:
EP Curling Kickstarter 
A 6-week, accessible on-ramp for curlers who are getting back into curling, feel a little underprepared, or simply want some structure alongside their curling. It’s designed to complement curling rather than require hours in the gym, and it’s still completely appropriate to start even if the season has already begun.

In-Season Training Guide 
For curlers who want a little more guidance throughout the season, this guide walks through how to approach strength, power, conditioning and recovery while balancing a busy curling schedule. The goal is to help curlers train enough to maintain what they’ve built without adding unnecessary fatigue when they’re already spending a lot of time on the ice.

EP Lab 
EP Lab is my ongoing training program for curlers inside the FITR app. In a few weeks, we’ll be moving into a more ba

The key to maintaining fitness, movement and avoiding injury & fatigue is proper planning around your curling and events. These rules are a starting point to help you prioritize your on ice performance without completely halting your off ice work.

The In Season Guide isn’t really “a workout program” as much as a decision-making framework for fitting training around curling. The goal of this guide is to give you a simple framework for managing your off-ice training throughout the curling season, while still giving you enough flexibility to meet you where you are.

What’s your biggest on ice struggle?

09/24/2026

Statistically, most injuries happen at the beginning or end of; a season, a game, a movement.

Treat this stage of sporting overlap wit grace and make sure to prioritize efficient warm-ups, rest and recovery. When we go to crazy with the reps too early in the year the body doesn’t have a chance to adapt to the extra movement. This is true even if you’ve been working out all summer. It’s still a new movement that needs to be introduced slowly.

Tips:
•Warmup well
•Focus the 1st few times on the ice on quality over quantity of reps
•Prioritize rest (sleep), nutrition and hydration (curling clubs are typically dry & we don’t see our sweat so it’s easy to dehydrate you)
•Don’t be afraid to lower the volume at the gym as you both adjust to curling again and finish up your summer activities.
•Listen to your body!

To make sure your well prepped The Kickstarter Program and In Season Guide are full of tips, resources (warmups & cool downs) and ideas to maximize your time on the ice

🛟 SAVE THIS 🛟

The goal of training during the curing season is NOT to get stronger & fitter 🤯

The goal is to MAINTAIN all that hard work you put in over the summer, and to maximize your time on the ice.

This means less workouts, shorter workouts, sneaking in exercises that improve your movement, help you feel READY & RECOVERED.

If you need help with this check out the In Season Guide (linked in bio) or send me a message so I can share a few resources for you.

Happy (almost) curling season đź‘Š

Who’s ready!?

09/18/2026

Here’s the funny thing about making changes to our lifestyle and training. It’s HARD to go from the “I think I should do that”, “I know what I need to do” and the “I’m doing it” stage. It’s hard. Don’t discredit the power of momentum and inertia and always celebrate every tiny step toward your goal!

If you’re needing a kick in the pants to go do the workouts you’ve saved or hit “purchase” on one of my program (might I suggest the Kickstarter?) then consider this the kick in the pants! 🫶
