Red Dye 40, Rugby, and Real Bodies: A Hilarious Deep Dive Into What We Actually Care About

October 8, 2025

🎙️ Meet Your Nacho Fitness Coaches

“I’m Sarah — personal trainer and recovering perfectionist.”
“And I’m Caleigh — fitness newbie, realist, and professional nap enthusiast.”


We’re not your typical fitness influencers. No six-pack abs. No 5 a.m. green juices. But we do have strong opinions, microphones, and a whole lot of laughs.


This week’s Nacho Fitness Coach episode takes us on a hilarious journey through mom life, diet culture, Olympic-level trolls, and why strength training beats skinny-shaming any day.


🍭 Red Dye 40 & The “I Don’t Give a Sh*t” List

Sarah kicks things off with a confession: she has an actual list of things she doesn’t care about — and Red Dye 40 tops it.


While the internet is in chaos over whether food dye is the root of all evil, Sarah’s perspective is refreshingly real:

“I’ve never checked a label for Red Dye 40. If it’s red, I’ll probably eat it — and enjoy it.”

Meanwhile, Caleigh shares a story about a mom friend who swears her kid “turns into Stitch” after eating Twizzlers. Is it the dye? The sugar? Or just... being three years old? The verdict: who knows.


The takeaway? You do you. Whether you read every ingredient label or not, parenting and wellness don’t need to be competitions.


💪 Olympic Athletes, Trolls & the Beauty of Strong Bodies

The conversation shifts to Ilona Maher — U.S. Olympic rugby player and all-around powerhouse. Despite being an elite athlete, she’s faced online comments accusing her of being “too big.”

But Ilona clapped back, perfectly:

“Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels? Really? Have you tried being strong?”

Sarah and Caleigh cheer her on — and dive into how women have been conditioned since the ‘90s to chase smallness instead of strength. From Victoria’s Secret ideals to toxic “diet culture,” it’s time for a mindset shift:


💥 Strong is beautiful.
💥 Healthy looks different on everyone.
💥 You don’t need to shrink to feel powerful.


🧠 Breaking the Cycle for the Next Generation

Caleigh opens up about how even young girls are picking up “diet” language — and how easily body image talk slips into family life.


Sarah reminds us that a parent’s words shape how kids see themselves. Whether it’s saying “I need to lose weight” or “I can’t eat that,” kids are always listening. The mission? Focus on strength, fun, and feeling good — not the number on the scale.


🧀 Nacho Takeaway:

It’s okay to care about health — and it’s okay not to obsess.


Don’t let social media, mom groups, or trolls dictate your worth. Whether you’re eating red candy, lifting weights, or taking a well-deserved nap, you’re doing just fine.

Welcome back to Nacho Fitness Coach—the home of fitness-ish advice, unapologetic honesty, and zero six-pack abs. We’re not influencers with perfect morning routines. We’re regular humans with opinions, microphones, and apparently a lot to say about germs and aggressive calorie cuts. Before We Dive In: We Made Something Awesome We finally did it—actual downloadable guides. Fitness-ish. Chaos-filled. Shockingly helpful.

We won’t judge. Much. Stuff We Don’t Give a Sh*t About: Germs This week’s chaotic warm-up topic: germs —and our complete lack of fear around them. Handwashing? Optional. Five-second rule? Absolutely. Kids touching questionable things in public restrooms? Okay… that’s where we draw the line. From farm-life immune systems to New York City shoe trauma (never look under a white rug again—trust us), this episode explores how wildly different everyone’s cleanliness thresholds are. Whether you’re a “sanitize your hands between breaths” person or someone who will eat a sandwich you dropped on concrete because “sun kills germs,” you’re welcome here. TikTok’s Latest Obsession: The “Aggressive Cut” Now let’s get into the meat of today’s episode—because TikTok won’t stop screaming about aggressive cuts . If you’ve somehow missed the trend: An “aggressive cut” is basically a dramatic calorie deficit designed to create fast weight-loss results. People love it because: You see changes quickly You’re less likely to quit early It feels like progress on steroids (without the steroids) One viral creator breaks it down like this: Find your maintenance calories using a TDEE calculator Subtract 800 calories for 3 months Eat 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight Get 12k–15k steps a day Lift 3–5 days per week , 6–10 reps per set Train until you’re 1–2 reps shy of failure Sounds simple… but is it smart? Sustainable? Safe? Well, that’s what we unpack—realistically, hilariously, and with zero diet-culture nonsense. The Bottom Line If you’ve ever wondered: “Should I try an aggressive cut?” “Why does TikTok think starving is a personality trait?” “Am I the only mom who doesn’t force handwashing before snacks?” This episode is for you. It’s equal parts science, sass, and “wait… did we really say that on a microphone?
