Virtual Personal Training Sessions & a Nutritional Plan with SophiaFIT

Personalised Nutrition and Workout Plan Small Banner.jpg

I am excited to announce that I will be offering Virtual Personal training sessions via Facetime or Skype. Alongside the training session, you will receive a Tailored Nutrition Plan and Workout Schedule!

My programs are very much geared towards overall lifestyle since feeling great and looking good is about so much more than what you are eating. With a personalized program, I will be looking into your food and water intake, your exercise,  your sleep, your supplements and your schedule/stress levels. My aim is to tailor a program that works best for you personally and make sure that it is achievable for you so you can realistically reach your goals. 

Please email me at sophia@sophiafit.com for details and prices.

OTP article, exercises to avoid during pregnancy

This my second piece about training women while pregnant. In this article I list situations and conditions to look out for as well as exercises that are a big no-no. BUt this noes not mean to stop exercising!!! Exercise has a myriad of benefits for the mother and the developing baby, which will help throughout pregnancy and during her labor, birth and recovery. Exercise or training programs need to be modified accordingly, rather than being stopped altogether. So just because there are things we need to look out for, that doesn't mean that pregnant athletes should stop their training and doing what they love.
