HOW IS YOUR MENSTRUAL CYCLE AFFECTING YOUR TRAINING?

Ladies, your hormones have so much to answer for. Accepting our ability, body image, strength, mood & cravings will fluctuate throughout the month allows us to stay more consistent and create a better understanding of our own bodies.

2 & 1/2 weeks later & I think it's time for a little update 👶🏻

Little Halle, weighing 6lb 11oz, entered the world at 10.13pm on Sunday 6th August, following a long (but positive & magical!!) labour.

Safe to say she has stolen the heart of many already & we are well and truly deep in the newborn bubble 🫧

Labour started closely after my Friday gym session so it might be true what they say third trimester mamas, get doing those squats 🏋🏻‍♀️

We are feeling good and looking forward to getting back to moving the body/ some routine but for now, just taking it all in & every day as it comes 🤍

LAST SUMMER vs THIS SUMMER  
 
The pregnancy edition 🎢  
 
Growing this little bub has been a wild journey. One of my biggest challenges to date but the most rewarding thing I'll ever do, I'm sure of that. I feel beyond blessed to be in my position, to have had a relatively smooth sailing physical pregnancy but 😮‍💨 mentally wow, it's a ride. 
 
I had all good intentions to workout consistently throughout my pregnancy but with working 2 jobs & a mini house reno, regular trips to gym slightly took a back seat and I'm ok with that. Exercise now at week 34 consists of daily walks & more holistic practice to prepare my body for it's nearing labour.  
 
Pregnancy has you feeling stronger than ever before, it is incredibly empowering & you spend a lot of time in total disbelief that you're growing a whole human.  
It is also mentally dealing with an influx of hormones, dramatic changes in physical appearance, feeling uncomfortable, sleepless nights, constant anxiety, financial worries, loneliness, inability to do small tasks alone. The list goes on & on..  
 
A woman's capability to control these changes in thoughts & adapt the mindset throughout the day - overriding the negatives with positives, is probably the hardest task of them all.  
 
I worked HARD to achieve the results on the left, but I've worked equally as hard to protect the body on the right. Of course, I often mourn the body I spent years working on & have struggled seeing it change. But I love & admire my new body, for it has been growing something truly magical, & those feelings will always come out on top.  
 
If you currently know someone who's pregnant/postpartum, make sure you're checking in with them & showering them with all the love.  
 
Pregnant mommas - be patient & kind to yourself. No one will truly understand your unique experience, but appreciate those who try to 🫶🏼 
 
6 weeks to go 👶🏻 then its onto the postpartum edition 🥴

⠀
Jordan approached me back in August to start 1:1 sessions in preparation for her big day. Over the last 9/10 months, Jord has worked her ass off (not literally, she built one instead) every session to achieve her goal of feeling confident & the best version of herself as she walked down the aisle. ⠀
⠀
Jord took all my advice on board, showed up to the sessions she didn't want too, took away workouts to complete in her own time & really tuned in to her diet and nutrition. ⠀
⠀
these pictures say it all. You smashed all of your goals by loosing over a stone of bodyweight, dropping inches across your body & building great muscle definition. The smile on your face makes it all worth it - what a beautiful bride you made. Proud 👰🏻‍♀️🤍
