Prenatal Training

Scientific studies consistently confirm the numerous benefits of staying active and healthy during pregnancy.

These benefits are not only good for mom, but also for the baby. Exercise during pregnancy helps forge extra blood vessels so that there is more opportunity to exchange nutrients between mom and baby. This results in a stronger, healthier baby. The overall health and well-being of the mom transfers over to the well-being of the newborn.

Pregnancy exercise can also make you feel more energetic, increasing your stamina so you'll tire less easily. It will boost your mood by producing feel good endorphins that can help reduce stress and anxiety. On top of that, you will get a better nights rest as staying active promotes better sleep by burning off any excess energy.

Prenatal Programs

Training through pregnancy reduces negative symptoms like morning sickness and fatigue. Proper prenatal training reduces the risk of gestational diabetes, diastasis recti, sciatica and other pregnancy related issues. It helps labor and delivery go more smoothly. Mothers who worked out during pregnancy bounce back to their pre-pregnancy weight and fitness level faster than mothers who didn't.
Help you and your baby stay strong and healthy

There are plenty of obstacles pregnant women can encounter that prevent them from exercising, such as nausea, fatigue, incontinence, breast tenderness, back pain, and constipation. However, many of these symptoms can be lessened or alleviated with exercise and there are also great benefits to exercising while pregnant. This has shown to improve maternal glucose levels and weight management, enhance well-being, self-image, and self-esteem, as well as decrease labor time and postpartum recovery time. It also gives mothers the strength to continue performing daily activities and maintain a healthy weight for themselves and their babies. Also, recent studies have suggested that a mom-to-be's prenatal fitness could help her child not only handle stress better as an adult, but also ward off dieases like cancer, diabetes and obesity!

Juliet Grey

Pre & Postnatal Diastasis & Core Consultant

I started training in 2000 at a big chain gym. I enjoyed training people with general goals like weight loss and muscle gain. Over time, I started to enjoy helping people with more complicated challenges. I started to enjoy learning how to train people with complicated injuries and clients training for specific sports.

When I got pregnant myself pelvic hyper-mobility issues I was unaware of came up, and I spent my last month of pregnancy limping and on crutches. Even with all my own experience working out for over 20 years, my knowledge of the human body and understanding of injury rehab and prevention, I was surprised at how pregnancy changes the body and affects working out. I became interested in the most challenging specialty related to personal training I'd delved into yet.

I was especially challenged to find ways to prevent, work around and repair injuries and complications like sciatica, carpal tunnel, preeclampsia, gestational diabetes and many more issues that can be associated with pregnancy. Always looking for a way to overcome challenges for my clients that are not well understood by other professionals, I jumped feet first into learning about prenatal and postpartum conditions and how fitness training and nutrition could improve the experience for mothers and their babies.

This type of training, which is a new and much needed field, has become my passion. I dedicate my time, often taking specialized courses or working with physical therapists to learn more about how I can help women before and after their babies and keep them strong, looking and feeling their best, so they can enjoy motherhood - and life, to the fullest.
