help alleviate pain and discomfort to return clients back to the normal routine. Providing treatments for acute and chronic pain, stress management and relaxation, carpel tunnel syndrome, tension and migraine headaches, work and sports injuries, motor vehicle accidents, fibromyalgia, sinusitis, TMJ and many other pain syndromes. As a personal trainer and studying yogi, I make it my mission to help clients reach their personal health and wellness goals. Providing personally prescribed exercise programs, nutritional advice, and monitor them to ensure they are reaching their goals in a safe yet effective manner. All clients receive a thorough assessment, an explanation of treatments, and prescription of remedial or strengthening exercises.

On this episode of things you willl catch me drinking on the daily😄, here's my routine:

1. 2 Glasses of Water: Rehydrating after sleep is essential for mental clarity and kickstarting your metabolism.

2. Metamucil: Become buddies with fibre! It supports digestive health, helps manage blood sugar levels, and keeps you feeling full longer.

3. Coffee: Beyond the much-needed energy boost, it’s packed with antioxidants that support brain health.

4. Creatine in Water: Often overlooked, but vital for midlife! It helps maintain muscle mass, supports bone density, and can even provide a cognitive "brain fog" lift.

5. Chia Seed water when I need an extra boost, these add a punch of Omega-3s and healthy fats for sustained energy.

For women navigating midlife, how we fuel our bodies in those first few hours can set the tone for the entire day.
It’s all about consistency and giving our bodies the tools they need to thrive.

Curious, what does your morning routine look like? ☕️💧

Happy green day to all🍀! And of course to my very own leprechaun 💚

Ladies, as we enter a new month, maybe with new goals, take a moment to remember movement should feel empowering, fun, and achievable at any stage of life.
Especially at midlife, and menopause, when our bodies need strength training, mobility, and a sense of community, more than ever.

Here, I work to make classes and private trainings personal and challenging on purpose.

My goal is to help you feel good, supported, and strong. BUT also to REMIND you what your BODY is capable of doing! 💪🏾

Lift happenes here Mon and Wednesday at 5pm. Online you can catch Lift Mondays at 6:30pm, and Wednesday mornings at 8am.

What you may not know, that is making you gain weight after your 40s, protein edition!💪🏾 

Protein bars are often candy bars in disguise. A lot have 15 to 20g of sugar and 300 plus calories. That's not a snack, that's a meal. And a sugar spike actually makes you hungrier in an hour.

Your protein needs are based on your goal weight, not your current weight. If you weigh 180 but want to weigh 140, calculate protein based on 140lb.

Timing matters more during the menopause tranistion, your muscle building window shrinks with age.  You need protein within 2 hours post-workout, not whenever. Miss that window and you won’t reap all the benefits of your efforts.

Not all proteins are equal for your hormones. Processed protein powders with artificial ingredients can mess with your already shifting hormones. Stick with whole foods first, and supplements second.

You need more protein on rest days, not less. Your muscles recover and grow on off days, so cutting protein on non-workout days is sabotaging your progress.

Plant proteins need to be combined for muscle building. Rice and beans together, works great, but separate, aren’t complete. If you're plant-based, you need to be strategic about your combinations

➡️ Blindly following generic protein advice designed for 20 somethings can actually make you gain weight🤦🏾‍♀️.
Your slower metabolism, varying hormone profile, and changing digestive system need a smarter approach. 

Want to talk more about this?  Lets chat or DM me with questions. I'd love to hear from you. .

Plantar Fascitis pain can sometimes be caused by tight calves.
Here are 3️⃣ stretches I recommend to clients to help stretch two of the major muscles of the lower leg, to help improve tightness and hopefully loosen the grip of plantar pain.

Give them a try and let me know what you think
