23.01.2022 Something that I love doing is reading It’s a ritual of mine that when we travel via plane that I get a book to read for the trip at the airport One of my favourite pass times on holidays is to read my book by the pool sun baking with a cocktail Of course at the moment we can’t travel so now every time I go to Kmart I buy a book I’m also now making the time to read as we aren’t travelling and I’m very grateful for our beautiful oasis at home to be able to go and... read outside when it’s a sunny day here in Perth I’d love to know what is something that you love to do??

23.01.2022 POST-NATAL EXERCISE TIPS PSA: I’ve clearly not had a child recently IMPORTANT: Ensure you have the doctor's clearance to exercise ... Did you know that regular exercise post-pregnancy is an effective strategy to help treat and prevent post-natal depression? As well as increasing energy levels to help cope with the high demands of motherhood NATURAL BIRTH For women who delivered naturally, they can generally resume exercise within 2-6 weeks only with the clearance from your midwife or doctor. C-SECTION BIRTH For women who delivered via a c-section there should be very minimal exercise prior to the 6 week check up. Avoid sit ups and oblique abdominal exercises until 12 weeks post-birth. POST-NATAL TIPS 1. The new mother should listen to her body and not expect too much too soon. Take your time and rest when you need too. 2. Avoid exercise if you are still bleeding or if you are experiencing pain or discomfort. 3. Begin with low impact exercise such as swimming, walking or light weight training up to 3 times a week to get moving. 4. Core stability exercises are important. Gentle abdominal exercises will help restore abdominal strength. HOWEVER, if abdominal diastasis is present core stability exercises such as pelvis tilting and pelvic floor exercises can be performed. Avoid crunches and oblique exercises. 5. Pelvic floor exercises are mandatory to help build the strength back up in these muscles. If you have any concerns regarding your pelvic floor, please see guidance from a physiotherapist immediately. 6. Ensure a good warm up and cool down are always performed. 7. Relaxin is still present in the body up to approx 12 weeks post-birth which means the muscles, joints and ligaments are still susceptible to injury. Avoid overloading, over-stretching, and excessive exercise as well as activities that involve jarring or jumping movements. 8. Always maintain adequate hydration. 9. Make sure you're wearing a highly supportive bra. 10. Good nutrition is paramount whether you're breastfeeding or not. A diet of diary foods, high calcium foods, complex carbohydrates (such as oats, brown rice, potato, sweet potato and whole

22.01.2022 FITBOD FITNESS CLIENT RESULTS Who doesn't love a challenge! Especially one where the coaches keep you on track and provide motivation just when you thinking you might be falling off track! I loved that we had a support group to check in with and we encouraged each other. The 6 Week Challenge was the perfect amount of time to change bad habits and from positive new ones in a safe environment free from judgement ... We had to be vulnerable by taking body measurements, we did a weight in and we were sharing food diaries but thats all part of the process of accountability and change. In 6 short weeks my body measurements reduced by 11cm, improved my 1 rep max over the 3 lifts by 63kg and although weightloss was not the aim, still managed to lose nearly 3kg! I feel fabulous and more importantly I feel empowered to continue with my fitness journey

Acarbohydrate rich foodshould be eaten about 1 hour prior to exercising (e.g a banana). 2. You should be able to talk during exercise and should not be short of breath. 3. Posture is paramount.Brace the abdominals, slightly bend the knees, keep shoulders back and the bottom tucked in. 4. All muscle groups should be strengthened. 5. Exercise 3-4 times a week. 6. Core stability and abdominal exercises can be done butavoid sit ups and curl ups. 7.

12.01.2022 Success is not built on success. Success is built in failure and determination!! Don’t be apart if to fail. Everyone fails at some point and it’s totally normal and it’s okay to fail!

07.01.2022 One of my favourite things to do for some down time is to read a book sunbaking whilst drinking strawberry daiquiri’s What do you love to do during your down time??

06.01.2022 Why is coach to client communication important?? Let’s put this into perspective! Imagine you went to the hairdressers and you told them what you wanted but then changed your mind or weren’t happy with the final product but said they didn’t do a good job but really it’s because you didn’t tell them what you wanted It’s kind of the same for a fitness journey!! Let’s say you wanted to try something new or spice things up a bit, or you wanted a longer training session ...or you weren’t getting pushed hard enough BUT you didn’t tell your trainer so you decided to leave your trainer because they weren’t giving you what you wanted BUT you didn’t tell them so they could adjust your training to help you?! Personal Trainers are like Hairdressers - we are serviced based and we are here to help you but unfortunately we can’t help you unless you speak up so as you can see this is where client to coach communication is soo important!! There’s nothing worse than coming across a client who can’t communicate with you but will go tell others they weren’t getting worked hard enough but it’s because they couldn’t communicate. Give your trainer the opportunity to help you - it’s what they are there for!! Here at Fitbod Fitness we value coach to client communication as we are always here to help our clients progress and try new things I mean what trainer doesn’t love to spice things up a little
