Kettlebell Workshop was a Success!




Lisa and I had a wonderful time working with this group of lovely ladies. Everyone did so well and actually seemed to have fun at the same time. I look forward to doing more workshops in the future. Lots more photos to come.

Workshop was 5 hours! The fact that I was 5 months pregnant didn't slow me down a bit. The energy from all the attendants and excitement kept me going. I could have kept going!

I want to thank Calvin Sun, an amazing Crossfit trainer and athlete for being their to help and take awesome pictures.
Thanks everyone and Lisa for a great weekend!

Congras Lauren and Great shots I saw the rest at Lisa's website.

even 5 months pregnant, you are still one bad ass strong kettlebell instructor and you look great! Hope Ben and Lyla are doing great as well.

Looks like fun! One of my students just found out she is pregnant! I am very excited for her, she is planning on continuing her training all through her pregnancy. I may need some advice from you regarding instructing.

Regina,

Thank you. I have definitely lost a bit of my strength, but that is what's suppose to happen when you are pregnant. 8-) I like to scale down but continue to maintain safely.

Franz,

Yes it was a great group! I'm sure we will find chance to get together.

Fawn,

That's great that one of your students is pregnant. There is no reason for her to stop training unless she has some extreme complications or a weak cervix. Shoot me an email if you have any questions. In the first trimester she should be able to do pretty much everything that she is currently doing except for Vo2 Max and lifting to failure. As long as she does not overheat she should be in the safe zone. 8-)

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. WELCOME! First let me say I did NOT want a C-section. I did everything in my power to avoid the first and even the second. I'm a kettlebell fitness strength and conditioning coach who relies on her body to share, teach, educate, and I was under the impression that having to give birth via C-section would and could destroy my body and career. 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
