(Episode 44) How to Stop Falling Off Track: The 4 Seasons Strategy for Fitness Success

🗓️ Week 4 of the 8-Part Fitness Jumpstart Series

In today’s episode, we’re getting to the real heart of what it takes to make fitness stick for military spouses: adaptability. Because in this wild military life, nothing stays the same for long—and neither should your fitness routine.

I walk you through why military spouses need a totally different strategy than their civilian counterparts, introduce the powerful Four Seasons of Military Life framework, and show you how to flex your fitness plan without losing momentum (or your sanity).

Whether you’re navigating a PCS, deployment season, solo parenting, or just a chaotic schedule, you’ll walk away from this episode knowing how to stay consistent no matter what season you’re in.

🎧 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

  • Why military life demands more flexibility from your fitness plan

  • How to use the Four Seasons framework to adapt your workouts

  • What to focus on during “Winter” seasons of high stress and change

  • How to set realistic goals that work with your life, not against it

  • How small adjustments can keep you consistent and confident year-round

  • Real-life examples of navigating PCS chaos without losing fitness progress
