  • Summary

  • Hey! I’m Lucinda (they/them), and welcome to Small Gains—the inclusive strength and running podcast where we celebrate progress over perfection and chase intentional, incremental gains in our strength and running.

    Here, we believe small, consistent steps lead to big transformations—in our training, lifestyle, and overall well-being.

    I’m here to bring the alternative and LGBTQIA+ communities accessible fitness advice and guidance for ALL bodies.

    You’ll find me sharing evidence-based tips and insights on balancing strength training and running through hybrid fitness—on your terms. No hustle or grind culture here.

    At Small Gains, we take a holistic approach to training—from gym intimidation and nutrition struggles to mindset, body image, neurodiversity, and mental health.

    If you’ve always felt like a bit of an outcast in fitness spaces, this will 100% be your flavour.

    E60: Holding Yourself to a Higher Standard Without Becoming a Dickhead
    Jan 24 2025

    In this episode, I dive into how we can aspire to high standards in our hybrid training journeys without being overly harsh on ourselves.

    I break down a five-step process for training purposefully and adaptively, without overcommitting or succumbing to guilt, burnout or hustle culture.

    We can dream big with our fitness, but we also need to be kinder in our self-talk, and be compassionate with ourselves in the process.
