About this episode

In this episode, I sit down with movement coach and functional fitness expert Francheska Martinez to talk about how to build a body that moves well, feels good, and stays strong for life. We break down the difference between training for looks vs. training for longevity, why mobility is the foundation of strength, and how small daily habits can prevent injuries before they happen.

Francheska shares her journey that led her to helping her clients move better, plus her favorite tips for unlocking flexibility, building functional strength, and making workouts actually enjoyable. Whether you’re new to the gym or a seasoned lifter, you’ll walk away with practical strategies to feel stronger, more mobile, and more confident in your own body.
