Swole Sisters

The Swole Sisters reach new heights this week as they test both their buoyancy and their hangovers at TrampoLEAN. Special guest Kelly Rice jumps in on the action to help us defy gravity as we discuss body autonomy, baby bouncers, the election, and Winnie the Pooh personality types. Comments? Compliments?

Hey. We're still here.  This episode was recorded in a simpler time, back when Kerri couldn't quite figure out the spike in her anxiety and Bettina had the grumps just 'cus. So we take to Row House with bellies full of tuna fish, to discover that water is probably an important part to the whole rowing appeal. There's a lot of impressions, karaoke, and googling things...and guess what? There will still be a lot of impressions, karaoke, and googling things. Because like we said: We're still here. And we're not going anywhere. 

Swole Sisters fight against gender roles at their UFC Fight Fit class! In addition to beating up some gym bags, we break down sports entertainment and celebrity, athletes as role models, and the neurochemistry of emotions because why not? Featuring surprise special guest Lucy G! ---^-v--^--- Created by Kerri Donnelly and Bettina Warshaw

People say you can't out-train a bad diet...but can we drive out diet culture? Please?   The Swole Sisters step out of the gym and into the kitchen to learn about meal prep from Inspiralized's Meaghan. We also serve up some hot takes on obscure vegetables, the separate spheres, and culinary arts as a boy's club.   Now get back in the kitchen and make me a sandwich!   ---^-v--^--- Created by Kerri Donnelly and Bettina Warshaw

The Swole Sisters channel their inner Will Smith at the Miami-inspired dance cardio workout: (305) Fitness.  The class promises to “make sweat sexy,” but instead we make ourselves uncomfortable discussing cultural appropriation, our own personal brands of sex appeal, and the infallible pretty/sexy/cute scale.   Episode 12 of Swole Sisters is sponsored by Netflox. ---^-v--^--- Created by Kerri Donnelly and Bettina Warshaw

The Swole Sisters return after their rest day—okay, rest month—refreshed and ready to go Blink gym! We work our way through the “workout menu,” take some online quizzes, and try to cram two-weeks worth of fast-talking nonsense into one episode! We are also now involved in lawsuits with Über, Soul Cycle, and potentially all of our listeners. With special guest: Gus! ---^-v--^--- Created by Kerri Donnelly and Bettina Warshaw

What’s more daunting than a 14 foot warped wall? The warped societal expectations of our adolescence!!! In this episode, the Swole Sisters welcome their first guest, Liz, to celebrate Kerri’s belated birthday at a Ninja Warrior class. We talk a lot about overcoming fear—and when to accept it—as well as discuss the anatomy of a perfect nickname (Ex: Hottie Mc Nice Face)

Get ready to rock and/or roll! The Swole Sisters don’t miss a beat during their drum-inspired workout: Pound. They also weigh the similarities between lady drummers and Hillary Rodham Clinton, test out a new sound board, and talk about butt stuff. This episode brought to you by La Croix seltzer. Just kidding. But we do drink it a lot.   Comments? Compliments? Workout challenges?

Episode 8 is on pointe. The Swole Sisters raise the bar at Fly Barre and infer that isometric movements are the devil’s workout. We also explore ballet as an art form and athletic achievement, and give it up for gnarly feet. ---^-v--^--- Created by Kerri Donnelly and Bettina Warshaw

Ladies, are you bathing suit ready!??!! And by that we mean do you a have flesh colored swim cap that makes you look like a penis? Because we do. This episode does a little time travel to cover our month-long misadventures with Aqua Zumba. We talk about the three summer Bs— bathing suits, body hair, and boobies—and ultimately admit that we just want to be old biddies that gossip and eat dumplings all day. #ThreeMoretilFroYo

It's International Yoga Day! ...Or it was, last week. But let's celebrate anyway! Episode Seven asks the tough questions: What are the branches of yoga? What makes you sweat more--downward dog or discussing your complicity in cultural appropriation? What's an english muffin?    Find out these answers--and so much more!--in this week's episode of Swole Sisters.   ---^-v--^--- Created by Kerri Donnelly and Bettina Warshaw

Even though we forgot to press record for half the episode, it’s still the longest yet! The Swole Sisters host a slumber party before their first ever Soul Cycle class. Bettina doesn’t cry, but our vaginas scream. Bikes are a product of the patriarchy, you guys.    ---^-v--^--- Created by Kerri Donnelly and Bettina Warshaw

This episode is pretty hardcore...or, wait....core work is just hard.  The Swole Sisters design their own core circuit, weigh in on gender performance at the gym, and learn that a bad workout means a good snapchat photo. With special guest John Cena!!!* *Kerri’s impression of John Cena   ---^-v--^--- Created by Kerri Donnelly and Bettina Warshaw

Its thick-thigh Thursday! Bettina and Kerri discuss the perversity of glute exercises, drink some things, and solve street harassment once and for all. Also, the heat makes us sweat--and swear--more than normal. Sorry, mom.   Comments? Compliments? Workout challenges?

The Swole Sisters are back and better than ever…or at least, we’re back and trying our best? This episode, we have a gas in the weight room while Bettina tries strength training for the very first time. We also discuss Kylie Jenner, ‘Having It All,’ and the similarities between running and pancakes. Comments? Compliments? Workout challenges?

Welcome to Swole Sisters Ep. 1! We made it! On this pilot episode, we work through awkward introductions, the seven minute workout, and why seltzer is a problematic way to re-hydrate. Fair warning: Bettina's laughs are full-volume. We're still learning audio production/what this all means/how to speak like human beings. We're getting better. We'll continue to get better. That's the point of this whole thing, anyway, so we're totally on brand. Comments? Compliments? Workout challenges?
