My ❤️ for running and how I try and stay motivated (most of the time!)

Its been a part of my life for a long time now, with some time off whilst pregnant and post natally too but it’s always been something I enjoy. Here are some things that help me to stay running motivated!

🏃🏼‍♀️run in different locations, I switch up my routes and locations regularly so I don’t get bored of the same!

🏃🏼‍♀️Set myself challenges - new PBs and events and races. I try to do a half marathon each year. For years, I’ve tried to run in every country I’ve visited! #whoruntheworld?!

🏃🏼‍♀️Create an epic playlist or get a podcast lined up before I start the run.

🏃🏼‍♀️Have a running buddy! This changes everything, running and talking, you don’t realise how far you are going! And it really helps to increase your fitness levels when you are talking!!

🏃🏼‍♀️invest in good running trainers and gear. I am a big fan of Hokas and love trying new gear out when running!

🏃🏼‍♀️it’s okay when I’m not feeling as motivated or have patches where I don’t run as regularly, this is okay and I’m not motivated all the time.

🏃🏼‍♀️ I love the feeling that my daughter sees me run, cheering me at events and this brings me my biggest motivation being her role model.

Exercising in pregnancy is safe and recommended, we just need to be mindful of a few helpful tips when we are exercising to help you and your baby workout safely 💓

Here are a few things to remember:

1. When exercising, use the talk test to monitor your effort. If you can talk when exercising and have a conversation, you are working at the right intensity for you. It’s important to note that we are all different and your intensity level will be different to another mummas.

2. Try to remember the magic number 7 - try to work at an intensity of max 7 out of 10 (if 10 is your max effort)

3. Remember to keep cool, if you can, exercise with windows open or air con and wear light clothes to help you stay cool.

4. Stay hydrated throughout and afterwards!

5. It’s important to remember when pregnant, it’s about what we CAN do, and there’s so much we can do! We just need to modify things, such as avoiding backbends, deep twists and intense core exercises - check out my page for help on pregnancy suitable exercises.

And always remember, I’m here to help you along the way. I’ve been through it myself and have an online home workout platform, with fully guided pregnancy suitable classes ❤️ check out the link in my bio!

#pregnant #pregnancy #pregnancyfitness #pregnancyexercise

As with all post natal movement, it is very much based on the individual.

When you feel up to walking, will depend on what type of birth you had, for example, if you had an episiotomy, tearing and any birth complications, you may want to rest for longer before starting to walk for longer periods for a while.

You may feel ready to start walking quite soon after birth if you had an uncomplicated birth, but some of you may not feel ready for a few weeks, or longer, and this is absolutely fine. You really need to listen to your body.

In general, when starting walking again, if you experience any pain, discomfort, bleeding or heaviness in the pelvic floor, this is your sign to stop, reduce the activity for now and wait until you feel ready. There is no rush.

It is also advised to wait until you don’t feel any heaviness or strain in and on the pelvic floor/vaginal heaviness before using a baby carrier.

An example of general guidance for walking after birth may look like this:

Week 1 - If you are at home or hospital, try to move around every few hours to help get the body moving and the blood pumping around the body.

Week 2 onwards - If it feels right for you, you could start to walk outside - start with 10 minutes and build upon this in 5 minute increments each walk as long as you don’t feel any pain or discomfort, looking at 2-3 walks per week.

At week 4 onwards, if it feels good for you, walking outside at least 2-3 times per week would be amazing for your fitness but also for your mental well-being too, again listening to the body!

The above guidance is general and it may not be right for you, especially if you had a c-section for example or experienced birth complications where more rest is required. Don’t feel any pressure to get back into things soon, it’s completely up to you when you are ready.

You’ve got this mummies and if you have any questions, please feel free to drop me a DM or comment below.

Some of my recent, real, no faff, meals I’ve remembered to 📸🤣

I try to eat a balanced diet where nothing is cut out. I am just mindful of making sure I’m eating plenty of protein, healthy fats and eating the rainbow in fruit and veggies and of course, enjoying meals (and a few drinkies!) out too as it’s one of our fave things 😋

Let me know if you want any of the recipes!

Why do we need to modify planks in pregnancy? ⬇️⬇️⬇️

It is a core exercise that can cause bulging in the linea alba (the band of tissue that runs down the middle of the abdominals, which can separate during pregnancy due to pressure)

So how can you modify? ⬇️⬇️⬇️

1️⃣ 1st Trimester - You may feel like you can plank and maintain pressure in the core. You may find that either doing it on your elbows or on your hands feels better for you. You could also reduce the length of time spent in the plank.

2️⃣ 2nd Trimester - You may choose to elevate your hands off the floor onto a surface like a bench or box or wall to make the plank more of an incline. Again, reducing the time spent in the plank is also important.

3️⃣ 3rd trimester - You can do the incline plank as described in trimester 2 and then also modify by doing the plank on your knees too, with either hands on the floor or elevated.

I hope this helps!

If you are pregnant and want to know how to exercise safely, please drop me a message or check out my online workout platform, that has a pregnancy and post natal selection of classes that are fully guided with myself and our guest teachers to help you move safely in your pregnancy.

FLEX AND FLOW - Monday 3rd March 6:30pm at Kemberton Village Hall.

This class is perfect if you are looking for a balanced combination of sweat and stretch work.

The first half of the class is based on a HIIT style workout (high and low impact options) and then the 2nd half is a dedicated flowing, stretch class for the ultimate lengthen and relax!

To book, please visit the link in my bio - I’d love to see you there and if you have any questions at all, please message me ❤️

#fitnessclass #telford #telfordfitness #shropshirefitness

And there are many more too, but these 3 were very helpful and ones that you can begin when you feel ready to do so (before 6 weeks PP if you feel ready too)

1. BELLY BREATHING

You can do this in different positions (such as kneeling, or with your feet up on a surface like a chair or bed). Take a deep breath in and feel your tummy expand, relax the pelvic floor. Then as you breathe out, try and imagine you are lifting the pelvic floor.

Aim to try and do this for a few minutes.

2. PELTIC TILTS

Lie on your back and think about engaging your deep core muscles as you start to tilt your pelvis back so that your pelvis is on the floor, then reverse this and tilt your pelvis forward so that you create a gap between your back and the floor.

Aim for 2 x 10-15 reps

3. STRETCH WORK - CAT COW STRETCH

Other stretches such as child pose, adductor stretches and side reaches too are also important. Try and do these daily if you can.

I hope this helps 💓 be kind to yourselves mummas. These are options for you, if it feels good for you now.

For follow along guided post natal classes with me and our guest teachers, I’d love to help you - check out our Home Workout Platform via my bio to learn more on how we can help you restore and rebuild your core safely after having a baby ❤️

Can you burpee in pregnancy? 
The answer to this will vary between each mum, but in general YES you can! We just need to make a few tweaks along the way to modify this.

Pop your sound on for a guided talk through of the modifications if you would like to know more.

Why do we need to modify burpees in pregnancy? ⬇️⬇️⬇️

It is a high impact exercise that may cause back pain or wrist pain in pregnancy and cause urine leaking.

So how can you modify? ⬇️⬇️⬇️

1️⃣ 1st Trimester - You may feel like you can still jump and that it feels good for you on your core and pelvic floor so if this is the case, carry on as you would normally do. It may be worth reducing the intensity and reps, slow things down and a good option here is to remove the jump when you come back to standing up.

2️⃣ 2nd Trimester - You may choose to elevate your hands off the floor onto a surface like a bench or box or wall. Step the feet in and out to reduce impact too.

3️⃣ 3rd trimester - You may feel like due to your growing bump, it doesn’t feel comfortable to perform a modified burpee on a bench, so your alternatives here are a bodyweight squat or an incline push up. You could even alternate between the two - 1 push up, 1 squat.

I hope this helps!

If you are pregnant and want to know how to exercise safely, please drop me a message or check out my online workout platform, that has a pregnancy and post natal selection of classes that are fully guided with myself and our guest teachers to help you move safely in your pregnancy.

A little bit of food inspo for you, that’s realistic (no photography skills for me here 🤣) and great to prep as a busy mumma.

So many of us are busy aren’t we and it’s tricky to plan your meals and prep them - but I’m here to help you with some inspiration for food I eat across the week when in a calorie deficit (I’m currently in a deficit, steadily and slowly working towards a few goals for the summer)

As you can see I like to eat in colour, eat a variety of plants and wholesome carbohydrates and lean protein sources. Food is fuel ✨

This is just a snapshot as I mostly forget to take photos of what I eat, but I will try this week 😅

I hope it helps and let me know if you want any more ideas for food!
