Give me 3 hours per week and I’ll show you how to build a fit and toned body into your 30s and beyond.
A while back, after years of training hard, I found myself with a newborn baby and unable to spend hours exercising. This was a new and unknown time for me, considering that health and fitness had been a big part of my life for the years preceding. My life had changed from me being the only priority, to suddenly having a small baby that needed me ALL the time.
I felt uncomfortable in my body (gaining 20kg while pregnant) and needed to exercise for my mental health as well as my physical health. After obtaining medical approval to exercise, I started to formulate a plan to exercise.
I needed to put my health and fitness first, but couldn’t allocate hours a week like I did previously (and didn't want to do hours a day either!).
Was I going to lose all the progress I had made before I fell pregnant?
And was I going to fit back in my regular clothes again? I wanted to get out of maternity clothes.
That’s when I decided to turn things around.
‘How can I do less work and still get impressive results?’
Studying Personal Training in 2008, and training numerous clients online and in my home gym, I knew I could write a program that would require exercising only 3 times a week. So I wrote my program and got started!
The weird part: the ladies who struggle now are the same ladies who used to be in great shape.
I’m talking about ladies who exercised before having kids and knew what they had to do to stay in shape. I’m talking about ladies who had the time before children, but now life is busy and they have put themself last! For years.
Most have now slipped into thinking they will start soon….when the kids start school, when work is less busy, when they can afford it, after the next holidays….and before they know it, years have passed by.
JUST ASK THEM.
Sensing that I could be helpful, I asked some of my followers how they feel when it comes to exercise after having children:
‘...there must be a middle ground’
‘...feel guilty spending money & time on me’
‘...want to set an example to my children and make them proud of me’
‘...ashamed that clothes don’t fit anymore and have to buy bigger sizes’
‘...need something I can stick to’
After following my program for 3 months, I was surprised to see I weighed LESS than before I fell pregnant. Doing less exercise was better for my body and I felt amazing! Plus I had more time to spend doing other things, including being with my daughter. It became my new regime, and after 5 years I am at my strongest and feel my best ever. My fitness regime is not time consuming and it’s enjoyable.
I am in better shape now, physically and mentally at age 38, than I was 10 years ago - strength training is the elixir of life (coupled with good nutrition!).
