    FOUNDER & HEAD COACH

Joslynn

Bodyenroute began in 2018 during Joslynn's previvor journey. As an experienced strength coach at the time, she recognized the value of working with a professional to help with the return to sport after an injury or major surgery. Joslynn searched, unsuccessfully, for an individual who specialized in both pre-and post-mastectomy care and also understood the desire to remain physically active after mastectomy.

Joslynn decided to leave her job as a strength and conditioning coach at a climbing gym and start her own business, BodyEnRoute. Her experience as a trainer for Olympians, NCAA athletes, and geriatric populations, combined with her experiences with her mastectomy, would inform her role as an advocate for mastectomy care and empowerment.

Let’s keep your Bodyenroute!

The name ‘Bodyenroute’ is rooted in the philosophy of caring for your body so it is strong, powerful, and resilient while it's en route on life's unpredictable journey.

Our philosophy:

Strength is the foundation for not only performance but also longevity. I specialize in working with women during pre and post mastectomy, runners, climbers, and athletes of all levels, if you move your body with intention, you are an athlete.

Why Strength Training Matters:

  • Injury Prevention: A strong skeleton, joints, and connective tissue are essential to withstand the impact and stress of life’s activities. We help you build resilience, so you can keep doing what you love. Strength training, when using a specific, customized program, is a key element addressing the needs of athletes as they age and attempt to extend the length of their careers. [Ref]

  • Enhanced Performance: Strength translates to power, speed, and endurance. Our strength programs are tailored to your specific goals, and any specific weaknesses, imbalances, historic injuries and/or surgeries. Strength training can help in your sport by increasing anaerobic power and tendon stiffness, meaning both more speed and more efficient biomechanics. [Ref]

  • Age-Defying Benefits: As we age, maintaining muscle mass and bone density becomes even more crucial. Our training not only helps you healthily perform now, but it also sets you up for a lifetime of active enjoyment. Strength training requires the use of added weight, which also stimulates bone growth and muscle mass, offsetting Osteoporosis and loss of muscle mass (Sarcopenia) associated with menopause and aging. [Ref]

  • Metabolic Transformation: Skeletal muscle is a crucial tissue for maintaining blood glucose control and energy balance. Muscle hypertrophy (bigger muscles) and increased strength, can be achieved by strength training. Hypertrophy of fast glycolytic muscle fibers also has metabolic benefits. Not only can increased lean mass (muscle) speed up your metabolism, more lean mass is also positively associated with reduced incidence of insulin resistance. [Ref]
