Redefining 'Bulky': Why Strength Is Beautiful and Strong Creates Confidence | Brooke & Sydney Wells

What if the fear of getting "bulky" is the exact thing keeping you from the strong, toned body you actually want? In this episode, I sit down with two absolute powerhouses — Brooke and Sydney Wells — twin sisters, CrossFit Games athletes, and two of the strongest women I know. Brooke is a 10-time CrossFit Games competitor and entrepreneur, while Sydney is a former D1 track athlete turned elite CrossFit competitor. Together, they're redefining what it means to be strong, capable, and confident in your own skin. We talk about the myth of "bulky," why lifting weights won't turn you into a bodybuilder overnight, and how strength training actually creates the lean, toned look most women are chasing. We also dive deep into their training — what it's really like to train 4–5 hours a day, eat over 3,000 calories, fuel with 400+ grams of carbs, and still be the leanest they've ever been. This conversation is raw, real, and so empowering. From body dysmorphia and comparison to recovery, rest days, supplements, and believing in yourself — Brooke and Sydney share the mindset and strategies that have carried them to the top of their sport. If you've ever been afraid to pick up heavy weights, eat more carbs, or take up space in the gym — this episode is for you. Strength isn't just physical. It's mental, emotional, and deeply empowering. _____ About Brooke Wells: Brooke Wells is a 10-time CrossFit Games athlete, entrepreneur, and founder of While on Earth, a premium shoe and apparel company.
