One of my missions is to help spread the idea that just because you are a mum, that doesn’t mean that the sexy fit women before babies is a thing of the past. Motherhood is by far the most challenging thing you’ll ever do since it is never ending - but oh so rewarding. But it is so easy to put our kids first and leave ourselves to the last. Before we know it we are tired, out of shape and no longer doing the things that we enjoyed before babies. It is all about creating that balance. But most certainly, the most import factor is your health because if you don’t have your healthy, you don’t really have anything. No mater how busy us mums are…. we must make time for ourselves to have a workout a few times a week. Get out and go for a power walk, hit the gym or do one of my live workouts on twitch while bubba is bouncing in the bassinet. you can log into view my workouts here: www.twitch.tv/sophiafit We can do this and fin time for one hour in the day for US!!!!
If you are on point with your diet sometimes it is hard to find the perfect meal in the correct macros for you when eating out. I like to get a bunch of sides to make my perfect meal. I know I need a good natural protein source, a natural whole source of complex carbs, some good fats and lots of greens or veggies to get a high dose of vitamins and minerals. Eggs, curried cauliflower, avocado and sweet potato was my choice the other day when eating out. The eggs are a great source of protein, the sweet potato is a great choice of complex carbs, avocado is a great source of fat, mostly monounsaturated and the cauliflower is a good choice of veggie and adds some great flavor. You can’t go wrong from a nutritional standpoint with this plate.

My first article was published in Jiu Jitsu World Mag all about the benefits of training the mind and how it can really help to increase your performance as an athlete. So often we train our bodies and we forget all about the mental aspect. But competing and being the bet you can be in any given sport requires a huge mental aspect as well. The ability to focus, to push yourself, positive self talk are all extremely import aspects of being an athlete. I talk about he benefits of meditation and eliminative mental chatter and reducing stress also. Read the full article here: https://issuu.com/jiu-jitsuworld/docs/jjw_ed12_aprov_02/90

So much of honoring your body is about listening to it. Take note of how you feel after eating certain foods. Do you feel bloated, sluggish, lethargic? Or do you feel nourished and energized? There are loads of healthy foods that may not agree with you. Every body is different, but being in tune with yourself is the key. #knowyourself
I recently wrote an article that is yet to be published all about heavy lifting vs body weight workouts. Some people think that lifting heavy is the only way to build muscle and get those ‘gains’. but is it? I address things such as posture and motor neuron efficiency, Are the right muscles firing to perform the lift? I address the issue of long term and acute injury. I also discuss moving with mindfulness and how this can greatly increase muscular activity. Stay tuned for the article. I’ll let you know when it is published.
