Good morning ☺️☀️

Just wanted to pop in and say how excited I am for a new week, full of new clients & new opportunities to get better. 🥳

Wishing you all a productive & fulfilling week. 💛

I can take you to the water, but I can’t make you drink it. 🏆

I have room to add another client or two here soon, shoot me a DM if you want to start training before the holidays! 🥳❤️

Working to be as well rounded as possible!! Exciting things coming 🥳🤩

LETS TALK LEGS 🦵🏼 in celebration of getting some fun new equipment . 🥳 before jumping into an exercise, think about how you set up!!

The technique used with lower-body exercises is important because the main lifts (compound movements like squats, dead lifts, lunges, ect) require core bracing & extend into the upper back !! It’s more than just moving ya legs 😉

A few things to think about while setting up for a lower-body movement :
SET YOUR FEET. Regardless of your stance, the feet must be set & grounded at the mid foot. This aids in keeping the knees out by activating your glutes & lateral leg muscles.
CORE BRACING. This activates the muscles in your lumbopelvic-hip complex to support the spine & hips. Take a big breath in & hold while flexing the core and pulling the rib cage down.
HIP HINGE. Using the posterior chain (backside of your body) to drive hip flexion&extension with a weight shift is key to not lose form. Think pulling your hips DOWN and not back. This will help keep the spine from being placed under too much stress.

Hope this helps your next leg day 🤩 I’m always available for questions/tips by DM!! 💛

Bear with me & my gym pics for a bit until I’m comfortable filming myself in the gym 😂💙

Hi all! 🥳

Super excited to announce that I am officially certified! I will be starting my personal training sessions AND strength & conditioning coaching at Battle Born Fitness starting Monday, August 10th. To start training with me, send me a PM and we can book a consultation! I will be offering some special rates as I start out 🤩 also I would love to offer group sessions! If you and a friend or two are interested in training (and getting a better rate!!) let me know!

I will be exclusively training Battle Born Fitness members. If you aren’t comfortable coming to the gym yet (because of Covid-19), I am willing to meet at a public location and do an outdoor session with appropriate social distancing for the time being.

Thank you to everyone who’s helped me along the way, and I look forward to supporting the health of the community! ❤️
