I want to publicize that I am not a medical professional. Always consult with your doctor before starting a new fitness routine.

I am a fitness lover & Prenatal/Postnatal Specialist who enjoys reading, learning, researching and trying new fitness techniques to improve my health. I take what I learn and share it with others who also want to have more energy, get strong and feel amazing! One of the biggest things I have learned is there is no one method that will work for everyone. We are all so different and it’s important to figure out what works for YOU!
