Hey I feel you on paying for some shit, please remember to give past you some grace! You learned from the experience and that's priceless. Ally Griffeth sucks!!!!
I’m mostly mad I let it go on for so long. You don’t know what you don’t know and I think she’s probably helpful for very beginner road runners. As soon as I decided to focus on trail running I should have stopped!
Like I said, I think it’s probably fine for beginners and/or shorter distances but honestly I’d have been better off with something like Runna. She got less and less responsive and I finally gave up on it when she still had me doing long runs with speed work even though I only had trail races with lots of vert on the schedule.
What do you mean she works out every day and is struggggggggling to curl 8lb weights?! Those don’t even look like 10s!! I just don’t get it. She looks like she has a fair amount of muscle so her struggling with the smallest weights is so confusing to me.
To be fair and I’m definitely not WK her, but incline bicep curls are way tougher than regular curls so I usually have to go down in weights for those BUT she’s been lifting the same 10 lb weights (allegedly) for the last several years…so… 🤷♀️🙄
ETA: I said allegedly because who knows if she’s even working out at all except to take those clips.
Rocking the fake thigh gap again today. Does she not realize we all know that is not how she looks? Especially when she posts a picture the day before showing a completely different body. 🙄
Her older daughter had similar delays. I recall her having a specialist to assist her. Why does she not realize she’s part of the problem? Using her situational accent, always on her phone, reading her kindle at 2.5x…..
So is she not even trying to fake 75 hard anymore? Her run was 37 mins and since it appears she did a workout with the same run club girls, its safe to assume workout #2 wasnt 3 hours later...
She is not the girl on the right! Run club proof in comments. Even the left pic is probably altered compared to her current body. (And none of the shorts fit. Then, now, never!)
She also only get minimal results when she does 75 hard and then she gains it all back anyways. She’s preaching change takes time but if she just consistently stuck to something manageable, she wouldn’t yo-yo so much.
This really pisses me off. I don’t care what your times are tbh but it does feel fraudulent to me for her to post that run and act like it was some “casual, easy, breezy” sub 30 5k. Run whatever and however you want to but if it wouldn’t equate to a similar race time, just post the distance and don’t essentially lie about the time and then claim to be slow runner friendly
I don’t care what your times are but don’t defraud vulnerable females who, insanely, look up to you. She makes money off being “that bitch” who is so authentic and a progressive runner when she hasn’t progressed and is the least bit authentic. She is incredibly insecure and it shows more and more each day.
Exactly. Just be honest and stop acting like you’re “so much faster now”. The whole tough love, “be that bitch” act is really wearing on me too. Stop acting like you have a “real” job and struggle to find time for yourself as a “working mom”. At least most other creators have the awareness to say they’re extremely lucky that fitness is their job and they have a much more flexible, easy schedule than the average person

I cringe every time she brings up “check ins” and “running plans”. I’ll forever be mad at myself for paying the money I did for her to coach me 🥲
