Saturday's Circuit Class

Lately I have been having many more women show up to the classes. To be honest with you, I think that the girls overall are tougher than the boys! I'm sure you guys know that though.

Today it was a mix of beginners, intermediate and advanced kbellers. So it gave the advanced people a chance to go heavier than they are use to safely. Here is the workout. I took a couple pictures to give you an idea of what it looked like.

Low Swings 15 sec

What Doctor's don't tell you after a C-section

I have now been through 2 C-sections since writing this blog post and thankfully I've recovered beautifully from both with the appropriate progressions. For those who are new and are just finding me.

Boy was I wrong! If you're feeing the same way, start by reading this article I wrote many years ago that still applies today! Many people have asked and here is part of my experience. I don't claim to be a medical expert but not only have I successfully healed my C-section, my abdominals are no longer numb, and I've successfully helped others who've had multiple C-sections (even some 20 years ago) find their core aga

5 Year Blog Anniversary and Giveaway

My blog was born March 10th of 2007, 5 years ago, with this post that started it all. It all started 6 weeks after giving birth to my first baby.

I wanted to share my struggles and perseverance in getting back to my pre-pregnancy self all while enjoying my new road in to motherhood. I felt this was an easy and convenient way for friends and family that live all over the world, to see photos of my children and updates about our life. What an amazing experience it has been for me. I never thought blogging my experiences would turn in to so much more. Through my blogging I got the chance to connect with so many wonderful people around the world. I never fully understood how powerful the stories would effect so many people. It's truly been an honor. Being able to continue to drive motivation and hope in to someones life by sharing my life
