No Excuses
Pauline has a no-excuses approach to exercise. "You can have results or excuses, but not both!" she writes. "I get it—achieving your goals isn't easy. We're all on different paths, whether you're trying to lose weight or build muscle. Sometimes it feels frustrating, and I've had those moments when I felt overwhelmed and wanted to give up. But it's actually during those tough times that real transformation happens. Remember, it's all about progress, not perfection, and you don't have to do this alone!"
She Used to Do Daily Cardio
In a "how it was vs. how it's going," post-Pauline reveals that she used to stick to daily cardio. "On the first three slides, you see me back in 2022, when I was convinced that sweating it out with daily cardio was the only way to get fit 🏃🏻♀️💦 While I was lean, I didn't have the muscle definition I wanted. I realized that doing a ton of cardio wasn't it," she writes.

Now She Does Strength Training
"I changed my approach to working out and started incorporating strength training, which is 🔑. Now, I follow a structured plan that has 2 upper body + 2 lower body days, cardio at the end of each session, and a dedicated day for HIIT/full-body workouts," she continued.
She Does At Least 3 Workouts a Week
"When my schedule gets busy, I stick to at least three workouts a week. I used to stress about missing workouts, but not anymore 💤 Missing a day doesn't impact the progress, and rest is super important -> muscles grow during rest, not while we're working out!" she says. "For my ladies worried about getting bulky from strength training—don't be. Strength training boosts your metabolism and burns more calories🔥 which aids in fat loss and muscle definition. It won't make you bulky unless you have a specific plan and nutrition for that."

Protein Is Key
She also stresses the importance of amping up your protein intake. "Regarding nutrition, I'm still in a calorie deficit but prioritize high protein (crucial for muscle repair and growth) and whole foods🥦🍅 which has led to great results," she says. According to clinical trials, consuming more protein than the recommended dietary allowance not only reduces body weight (BW) but also enhances body composition by decreasing fat mass while preserving fat-free mass (FFM) in both low-calorie and standard-calorie diets.
