Pregnancy & Postnatal
Personal Training
Supporting Your Strength, Recovery, and Well-Being at Every Stage
Pregnancy Personal Training
Motherhood brings many physical and emotional changes. Prioritizing your well-being is crucial as your body adjusts. Staying active during pregnancy boosts health, energy, and mood. Regular exercise supports your baby and prepares you for motherhood's challenges, enhancing your experience. Our personalized training sessions focus on:
What happens during a pregnancy personal training session?
Using resistance bands, body weight and the odd kettlebell/dumbbell, I will tailor exercises to match your stage of pregnancy, changing exercises as frequently as necessary for you and your bump.
I will teach you how to engage your core muscles even whilst pregnant, supporting a quicker postnatal recovery (and potentially a smoother birthing experience). Training your core muscles can help minimise abdominal separation in the later stages of pregnancy and help with recovery post-birth.
POSTNATAL PERSONAL TRAINING
Having children takes its toll on your body, both physically and mentally. Your precious newborn baby needs you for pretty much everything. Postnatal recovery and healing of abdominal separation can be slow due to lack of sleep and poor posture from sitting whilst breastfeeding or baby sleeping on you.
When training with me, we will focus on you. This will give you greater mindfulness of how you stand, and carry yourself and your baby, putting you in a better postural position to aid healing.
In your one-to-one postnatal personal training sessions, we focus on:
Rehab and recovery, including abdominal separation
Building core strength
Postural awareness
Regaining whole-body strength
Every new mum’s journey is personal to them.
C-Section Rehabilitation
Having been a carer and teacher, I have always been passionate about helping people. After the birth of my second child, I retrained as a specialist in pregnancy and postnatal personal training. I am passionate about empowering women and supporting them with their fitness journey through all stages of life, from pregnancy through to menopause and beyond.
As women, we carry a lot – both mentally and physically. Having confidence in your body brings confidence in other areas of your life, too. Your body should be the one thing that you can always rely on. Investing time in looking after it allows you space to focus on you. I believe strongly in the power of strength from within, both emotionally and physically.
What happens during a postnatal
c-section rehab session?
We will focus on breathing, core activation with the breath, healing your abdominal separation whilst connecting the core correctly. We use physio bands and resistance bands in the early stages, along with bodyweight exercises. These early sessions are rehabilitation exercise personal training sessions. We have to start your recovery by building a solid foundation of a good working core before we bring in more whole-body exercises.
Key stretches and releases in areas where mums can get very tight and muscles can cause discomfort.
Building the neural connection between your pelvic floor and deep core muscles so they work together to keep your core strong and start to regain their strength.
Teaching you how to breathe fully and properly through your ribs and back, whilst connecting to your core.
Specific TA (transverse abdominals) and PF (pelvic floor muscle) activation exercises through breathing.
Realigning your posture so that all your core muscles are in their optimal positioning for healing, and regaining their optimal length.
Take home ‘exercises’ that build strength and stability.
