“When we are exercising while we are pregnant, postpartum, or at any stage, we have to think of it as if we were training for a marathon. There are a lot of shifts which will change our energy levels. So we need to have a training plan for this time. But we also need to give ourselves grace and flexibility to take a step back and honor where our energy is at.”
In this episode, registered nurse and fitness leader Kellie Willie joins founder and CEO Kinia Romanowska to talk about finding a fitness routine for busy moms during every stage of motherhood, maintaining energy during low-energy times in your life, and finding a schedule that fits the shifts that you will experience.
Tune in to this episode for insights on how to create a workout regime fit for your busy schedule to build not only physical strength but emotional strength as well.
Kellie has worked in the fitness industry for over 15 years, where she has trained women throughout all stages of life. She founded Fit Your Life, which offers fitness classes tailored toward prenatal and postpartum women. She strives to inspire others to make a journey to making their health a priority. You can connect with Kellie on Facebook, Instagram, or book a class at MindBody Online.
