questions like that are somehow devaluing all the hard work and discipline you put into having the lifestyle you have now. Discipline is not easy. Posting content on the regular while trying to avoid burnout is not easy. Achieving your dream bod is not easy. Been following you for years and the amount of self improvement is crazy

The entire concept of delegitimizing someone’s hard work and accomplishments because their life and resources don’t exactly mirror yours is wild to me. You obviously work hard and are kind and happy and someone trying to tear that down because they’re not in the same spot you are is ridiculous. Keep going girl ❤️

I'm a 67-year-old women and I've been following Allana for a few years now - while I was still working outside the home, and now that I am retired. Some of the advice is applicable to me, some is not, but ALL of her content is entertaining and fun - and I've learned a bit along the way. I appreciate your work ethic, kindness and compassion. Every day May is my favorite time of year! Thanks for all you do for us - keep it going! ❤

Unfortunately not everyone gets it, it requires some deep down work and not everyone is there yet.

I so agree. I have a 9-5 and do extra work after and am learning 2 languages, training for marathons and doing gym workouts. Some extra tips i have is - swap commute for bicycle- i get 2h of exercise a day just to get to work! - meal prep and normalise bringing your food to the office- both breakfast and lunch. healthy food is great - get yourself friends who align with your lifestyle- you will see that these things are possible. For example my work has a slack channel for running and gym enthusiasts - find a gym near the office- get it done before you get home/ before you start work It’s all possible 🥰

@alicehammonds6873 26 күн бұрын

Completely agree with all of this! I also work a 9-5 and always take my own lunch, walk during my lunch break to get my steps in, work out in the evening if I didn't make it before the office! There's always enough time in the day if you want it enough 💖

I’m in absolute awe of you and the HGS community you have built. You are correct in saying everyone has the power of changing their lifestyle if they want it bad enough. It takes a lot of discipline to do what you’ve accomplished over the years I’ve been watching you. I’m trying to change…and my mindset. I’m a work in progress and I do what I can. You inspire me. I’m over 60, disabled and I’m searching/finding what works for me. I also find that I need to do workouts that I love and that I can physically do. Stretching and dancing. What Ive learned throughout this process is, that for me, if you love it you’ll continue. Thank you so much for sharing and for being you. ❤❤❤

I COMPLETELY agree with your conclusions. It’s a choice not to make lifestyle changes and hide behind excuses. I am the person that commenter described (9-5, 85k, etc.) and I do all the things you do- lifting most days, cardio, tracking my meals, getting my steps in, etc. I did all of these things when I worked 65+ hours a week in the Army and I’m about to start law school whence I FULLY intend to continue with all of these things. If you want to make it happen, you will. Not to mention that it’s pretty crappy for someone to attempt to downplay everything you, Allana, are accomplishing just because of the type of job/lifestyle you have. Thank you for continuing to post this part of your day because it is motivating and legitimately feels like I have a friend keeping me accountable to my own goals and progress. ❤

Ok - my 5 cents! Since beginning of 2020 I've been working from home. Year later i opened my own business, again working from home. No kids, now 41yro, house with a garden, 5 mins walk from the beach, dog owner. So roughly 1 year ago i realized that anything i do daily is a full time motivation. Work, shower, cook, clean, walk the dog, workout, not having wine in the evening (daily), go for a swim, meet with friends, put mascara on, travel (and we own travel agency ), etc. When i worked 9-5 ( often shifts ) i was out all day, then out with friends, weekend gateways, dinner cooked, house cleaned... you get me. Once you get going it is easier to keep doing it. So actually started by hot girl summer myself ( just in my case it will be most probably summer of 2025 😅😅😅😅) thanks to you Allana just to be the best version of myself and you motivate me when i cannot motivate myself! I hope it makes sense.....kisses from Greece!

Im a mom of three kids under 7, workout 5 days a week, training for marathon #2, I work 7-3. Im exhausted by 6pm… But I do all this because it makes me feel good. I save money by working out at home and not going to the gym. I save time by waking up at 4am to get in my workouts.

That comment is so interesting! I mean I have a full 9-5 job, plus I do KZfaq and Etsy on the side, I wake up at 5:30am everyday and workout, I just ran a half marathon, and I by no means think I’m doing the most. I know so many parents who are doing so much more. I can’t help but wonder if people need a reason to believe they can’t do something, so they can quit before they even try.

@marlification 26 күн бұрын

I personally love all the HGS content! I find you so motivating and inspiring. I work a 9 to 5 full-time job and still manage to get to the gym 5 days a week. It's totally doable. I can't afford to do F45 or to hire a PT but I use a workout app on my phone called STRNG and that gives me a program to follow at the gym - 2 leg days, a push day, a pull day, and a full body day. Having a program makes such a huge difference. I wish I had discovered it sooner. Now I look forward to my workouts!

It's all about choices. Some people choose to leave unnecessary ugly comments rather than scrolling past. But just know you inspired me on my own fitness journey. I now choose to get up at 4.30 to get some of my work out done before my hour commute to go to my job. Choose to workout after, choose to eat better. And I've never felt better, and I know there's still more I can do. Please don't stop being you, most of us love it x

Honestly, watching you work out, get up and running helps me get out of bed in the morning 😂 it’s kinda like a: “if Allana can do it, so can I.” I know any video regarding health, wellness and fitness can be super divisive- but any long term viewer of yours can understand that the purpose of HGS isn’t to replicate what you’re doing. It’s to just implement change where you can. 😂 your HGW & HGS videos got me to go on walks. And now - I’m doing interval jogging! (Mind you with LOTS of breaks 😅) but it’s these kind of realistic fitness check ins that really helped me see that I can implement fitness in my lifestyle! Anyways - this tedtalk is just me saying that being a long time viewer - it helps to see someone who started at the beginning and end up at a different point ❤ keep posting 💪🏼

I am a mom, and a high school teacher and prioritize my health. I actually had a conversation with someone recently where they asked how I fit it in and I told them that I have no hobbies. My hobby is my health. They didn’t like that answer but that’s the only way I can do it. For my mental and physical health it’s the only way I can do it with a career and family. I’m up working out at 5:30am before I spend my day teaching teens. I meal prep on Sundays just like you. I love your content! You crack me up and inspire me even though we have very different lives.

I needed to pause to get my thought out about that "question" lol. My boyfriend works 3AM usually to 2PM, 4 to 6 days a week no joke. 20 to 40 min commute depending. Makes around the same amount of money but that man STILL makes time for the gym 3 days a week and can afford the clothes. Spend what's in your means there are a BILLION resources for equipment and clothing, so I'm not commenting on that. But if he can find time with a 60+ hour work week, anyone can. The most motivated human I know.

It’s all about discipline and wanting to change. There’s so much free workouts on YT and it’s not about copying your exact routine. Find the things that works for you, if 5 days of workouts feels too much - do 4. Changing your lifestyle doesn’t happen overnight, it’s going to take some time and that’s okay! Just take the first step and go from there! Allana, you are such an inspiration! 💕

For non-morning people, get a gym membership or fitness classes near your place of work or along your commute home. That way you don't have to wake up any earlier, you can make better use of a time of day that you're already awake and out, and you can avoid rush-hour traffic if you work 9-5. I did this for years and it was brilliant. It also feels really nice to have a second shower washing the day off after your workout.

Hi! Corporate girly here. It is 1000% possible and attainable to create the lifestyle you want but that requires effort, planning and adjustments. Myself and friends included who prioritize fitness/ wellness and nutrition are waking up pretty damn early to get out on walk/ runs to ensure we get to our step goal. We are also carving out time for our strength training sessions either before or after work AND we are meal prepping on Sundays and Wednesday to ensure we have healthy food options throughout the week. Some weeks are great others are tough but you just do it and you learn that in order for change to occur you have to put the work in! Love you Allana- I’ve learned so much from you and I love being a part of your community.

ETA: just got to the part where you talk about alcohol. So damn important. The level of low key alcohol abuse that is normalized in our culture is wild.

@KayTegan 23 күн бұрын

Allana alluded to it a bit, but I think it’s definitely helpful to be mindful that consistent change happens over time. You don’t need to jump into working out 5 days a week. If you’re starting at zero, aim for 1-2 days to start until that feels sustainable. You can always increase, but if you choose goals that art too lofty to start, it’s can seem impossible.

I hear you on having many different phases of health routines over the years. I have also had different phases of resisting or pushing back against health content as "just diet culture" (though I never commented or dm'd anyone I was taking the time to watch! Smh), but at this point I think it all comes down to what you said here: it feels good to feel good. Like, it's actually that simple. And I find you to be very gracious about always clarifying that this is what works for YOU, and not virtue signaling or attempting to make anyone in your audience feel bad. Currently I'm almost 45, working out 3x a week and walking or yoga-ing 2x, trying to lift heavy and focusing on hormonal health as another component to all this as I head into perimenopause, and it feels really really good. Simple! Thanks for the continuing inspiration Lan ❤

Most of those people are simply looking for excuses for themselves. I’m an ER nurse, I’ve trained 5 days a week for years whilst working 12h shifts, I’ve lifted weights, completed half marathons and a marathon. Now I’m a mom of a 3.5 years old and an 11 months old and I move my body every single day for 30 min, non negotiable. I’m aware of my privilege as I’m working part time since having children and I have an extremely supportive husband, but without my discipline and determination I would have not done it. If it’s a priority, you will do it and for me, that has many times meant 5am or 8pm workouts. Kudos to you, Allana!

WOW what an incredibly condescending comment! I had to pause the video to get my thoughts out 😂The audacity to "challenge" you, as if you don't work hard and couldn't possibly achieve what you have with your health/body if you had a different lifestyle. It's perfectly possible to achieve these things with the lifestyle that person has (as many other people in the comments have shown)! Sure, it might look different to how you do it but it's different for absolutely everyone! I think the challenge here is not for you but actually for them to learn how to make it work for them in their circumstances ...rather than acting as if what you have accomplished has less value because your life and resources aren't exactly the same. You responded to this beautifully, thoughtfully and with absolute grace ❤ I absolutely LOVE how you took such a devaluing comment and turned it into the most motivational video. You superstar you🌟

I love “everyday May” so sad it is nearly over - love love HGS! You are correct everyone has the power to change their lives - you need to want it though, it is not easy! I don’t ever comment normally but just to say I am based in the UK and also follow your UK friends - I love them all but I always choose to watch your video first - you are amazing! Love all your content ❤

Thank you for the honesty! There is sooo much more I could be doing in regard to my fitness. I do a bit of cardio throughout the week and have been hesitant to add weights, but I plan to do that throughout the summer. I appreciate the encouragement and stories! You look great, Allana 💜

As someone who works 9-5 with a demanding job and has chronic pain I am amazed at people who have kids and workout regularly. It’s easy to assume others have it easier than you and that it gives you an out for not doing anything. I love my slow controlled workouts at home and cater them to how I am feeling that day. Something is better than nothing, and to your point, a walk sometimes is more than enough!!

People take things so literally. Have your OWN version of hot girl summer. I have a kid and a 9-5. Hot girl summer for me is working out 3 nights a week and trying not to eat chips lol

Thank you for being such an inspiration. It is because of your HGW videos that I changed my own schedule so I could start fitting in morning workouts before I go to work. Yes, that means I wake up at 4:40 to be able to get to the gym by 5 am, but it's worth it. Thank you for taking us all on your fitness journey - and for being an absolute delight to watch!

Following you for a couple of years Allana and adoring you with every single video, everything you said 100% resonate with me and all the shifts you've done in your life. I started doing the same two years ago: cutting out alcohol (realizing it was just making me so tired), walking on the self-discovery and spiritual path, and changing various aspects of my life to fit the new version of me. This is a choice we can all make every second of every minute in our lives. LOVE LOVE U so much and thank you for being the amazing you, no matter what.

For many years I’ve wanted to do weight training and wasn’t able to motivate myself until you Allana. You inspired me to get to it and now after a few weeks I’ve been consistently doing free weights. I have a gym to go to and that is my next step. You motivated me seeing how shredded you are without the bulk. You look so streamlined and lean. Love that look and that’s my goal. Thank you for being so inspiring to get fit and living healthier!

Allana, you have been so motivating! Taking care of yourself is not easy, it takes a lot of work, consistency and discipline no matter what life you lead. Your body has transformed, even though you have always been thin and fit. You exude health and I’m so happy for you. Please keep these HGS vids comin 😘 on another note, have you ever thought of doing a live? Seems scary but would be awesome!

Literally YES YES YES to all of this! It makes people so uncomfortable when they see others live in a way or make the changes that they are finding so challening. I'm a full time mama, I run my own business and expecting my second baby soon! I ran a marathon 6 months after my first daughter was born and I still train five days a week even whilst pregnant, mothering and working! Our health is an absolutely priority and we to put it first in order to thrive at everything else we want to do in this life. Feeling fit and strong and healthy makes me feel incredible. I used to struggle with the comments family and friends would make around me "over doing it" or being to "disciplined" but only WE know our own bodies and minds and how loving and positive a healthy amount of discipline and pushing ourselves can bring into our lives. You look UNREAL girl, absolutely glowing inside and out. Keep going and inspiring and not being afraid to share your journey 😍

It will always amaze me the things people say to others just out of spite. Self improvement of ANY kind takes sacrifice, health and wellness included. Everyone has different barriers and obstacles but if it’s something you want to commit to, then you have to do that for yourself! No one is going to remove or navigate those obstacles for you. Watching your HGW/summer videos really helped me check in with my own goals and inspires me to kick my butt in to gear when I’m in a slump 🖤🖤🖤

I’m currently working 80 + hours a week many weeks a month, and your health journey motivated me to stop making excuses and find a way to integrate fitness into my life. I’m a much healthier person now, compared to where I was 6 months ago (inside and out). So thank you for being honest, sharing your journey, and inspiring others to be bold and make a change.

I really like the content you make. I think you’re genuine and real. As for the whole “you can do this only cause your influencer”, I don’t buy it! It only takes a mind set and you can do anything! I’m a working mum of two kids. I get up every morning at 4,15 to do my run and Pilates workout and have a moment to myself, then it’s family time and get ready for work! Afternoon is kids time, meal prep for tomorrow, and a relaxing evening routine! Anything is possible, you just have to decide if you really want to do it!

@paigeburton3913 26 күн бұрын

Love! Last month a Pilates studio near me had a special deal that made it very affordable. I went from barely getting there once a month to going 20 times in the month. So much of it is prioritising yourself and your health and asking for help when you need it. This *whispered G word* is incredible 😮🤯 You are so so generous and that shines through in everything you say and everything you do. Thank you for another everyday May 🖤🖤🖤

Really respect you for having this conversation and shouting out people who have inspired you through out your life. There will always be excuses, but you do what you personally decide is valuable. I think you handled the harsh comments so well and kindly while still standing up for yourself and view point.

You have completely changed your life. As someone who's been watching for years, you have transformed in so many ways and the discipline and hard work you've put in are beyond commendable. And I can only imagine how many people you've inspired. I know I'm one of them.

Hi Allana!! It amazes me how some people can be so rude to others, especially to you!! You are such a inspiration to me!! I am 58, I've had to have 3 surgeries in the past year on my upper and lower left femur. I was in a wheelchair before that. I now can walk without having to use a walker or cane. I am truly blessed! You've inspired me to start lifting my dumbbells, do yoga and walk as far as I can everyday. I will have a limp and Arthritis in my leg for the rest of my life. I am not going to let that keep me down though! Thank you so much, for being the strong, wonderful woman that you are!! You are amazing!! ❤

Keep inspiring people with your HGS content! In think your content has always been to inspire and provide feedback on your own experience, never was it to ask people to copy what you do. Seeing your HGS has motivated me to explore options of activities and workout to integrate in my own lifestyle. I will never be a gym girl but seeing you pick up Tennis and doing walks/run has motivated to me consider other activities as a workout. HGS is about the spirit! While I might never be a hardcore HGS girl, i wanted to share this positive feedback/reaction to your HGS journey. Thank you Allana ❤

You are such an inspiration to me! The fact that I'm in a different age bracket, different lifestyle, different resources have nothing to do with that. I've gone through different stages in life when it's easier or harder to stay healthy. But it's people like you that always inspire me! And it's up to all of us to extract what works for us and leave out anything that doesn't. I was talking back to you on this video and wish you could hear me. But all that to say You are awesome! inspiring! and a beautiful person. and keep it up beauty!🥰

I was a little behind on videos and just saw this after I had commented on the giveaway that I'd love to see how you would approach a healthy lifestyle while working a 9-5 etc. Your response in this video was so so perfect! I think you so well captured the discipline and sacrifice that come along with maintaining a healthy lifestyle. I loved hearing you reflect on the routines and habits of your friends and yourself throughout the years. It's hard work! Thank you for being so open and honest with this important chat!

@edasavaseri4406 26 күн бұрын

With every gain there has to be some sacrifice and most of the time if you want to have more time for exercise you have to sacrifice some time either from scrolling or your social life. It isn't easy but it is doable. People don't realize that the more you do and the more you move your body, the more you feel energized and are able to do more things in a day. I had a 9-5 and went to the gym and sometimes even did yoga and went to the gym in the same day. Some days I even worked 10 hour shifts. I worked 6 days a week. So I know it can be done. But there has to be some sacrifice from some things. Maybe from sleep and a bit of social life, from alcohol and excessive eating. Anyone who wants to change their lifestyle must accept that they will have to make some sacrifices along the way but it is worth it. Complaining about our situation or blaming others does not lead to anywhere. Thank you Allana, I have been following you since your Calgary days and always appreciate you sharing your journey to a healthier life. Much love from Istanbul, Turkey! 😇

I’m one of those people who work 9-5, commute, I also have a second job as an interiors and lifestyle influencer. But I started my hot girl summer with my coach Anna (from DIYBODY) after watching your videos and changed my life but you are right it’s about discipline and changing your habits/lifestyle to fit it in. I also got diagnosed with lupus in August and I’m now in full remission because of my training 🙌🏻💕

Hi lan, long time lurker over here, I rarely comment even though I never miss a video. I've been having the haaardest time with fitness, and making so many excuses for myself, and to be completely honest I've told myself the same thing; that you are able to do these things because you are a content creator. This video was sooo motivating and inspiring. Thank you for always being so honest with us, you are one of the only people in this space I truly feel represents a real version of themselves on camera. Thank you for a lovely everyday may, love u

@hannahl610 26 күн бұрын

I like how you always emphasise that health and fitness is a priority for you, your lifestyle is built around that and you make compromises for it. I just see your videos as advice where I can take away individual habits / ideas that work with my life. If you have kids or an inflexible job or a limited budget of course that’s going to affect your priorities. But you can still probably make some changes like walking more, or taking up an active hobby at weekends, or swapping out some foods for healthier options.
