Fusion Hack: You Don't Know What You Don't Know with Arin Cahee

Welcome back, beautiful friends! On today’s Fit Body Lifestyle Fusion Hack episode, we’re peeling back the curtain on something every athlete, competitor, and fit momma-to-be needs to hear loud and clear: you don’t know what you don’t know—and that’s okay. This mini-episode is packed with wisdom, experience, and a dose of real talk as Jami and Greg sit down with the radiant IFBB Pro and trainer Arin Cahee.

We dig deep into Arin’s transformation—not just physically, but in her mindset and approach to training. From early misunderstandings about anatomy (hello, upper outer glutes!) to the humbling realization that even the pros still have room to grow, Arin takes us through the power of unlearning, refining, and sticking to the boring basics that bring big results.

This episode is a love letter to patience, intentional movement, and respecting the long game. It’s not about fancy workouts—it’s about mastery.

5 Key Takeaways from the Episode

  1. What You Think You Know Might Be Holding You Back
    Arin shared how she misunderstood the glute structure and was focused on the wrong areas—like the tie-ins—because of feedback misinterpretation. It wasn’t until she truly learned her anatomy that her training transformed.

  2. Intentional Repetition is More Powerful Than Constant Variety
    The “Drew-ski Plan” (Arin’s term for her glute-focused programming) involved sticking with the same workouts for months—and the results were dramatic. Repetition with precision beats novelty without purpose.

  3. Proper Execution Trumps Heavy Weights
    Arin learned the hard way that going heavy doesn’t always mean going effective. Once she focused on execution and muscle recruitment, especially in glute bridges and RDLs, her progress skyrocketed.

  4. Training Must Evolve With Your Body
    As Arin's body changed—through reverse dieting, muscle development, and injury recovery—so did her training needs. She emphasized the importance of shifting your fulcrum to stay balanced, just like on a teeter-totter.

  5. Discipline and Simplicity Are Superpowers
    Arin doesn't crave variety; she craves results. Her mindset is clear: give her the plan, and she’ll execute it. Her discipline is a reminder that when you trust the process, even the “boring” work brings extraordinary outcomes.
