This is a little scary - but true!
It takes roughly 3 weeks to build new habits.
Abstaining from these foods will be hard in those first weeks. However, the benefits you will see and feel are incredible.
Stay strong - and believe in yourself!

You need to know a little bit about exorphins because the makers of processed food, Big Food, know all about these chemicals. In fact, they manipulate ingredients to stimulate our appetites and initiate an addictive cycle of overeating and subsequent disease states.

This is true for the majority of new mums.
The key is to accept and be patient with the process.
Good news; with the correct structured training / body restoring program and being consistent with a daily routine, it is possible to look and feel great again after child birth :-)

Ps. However, personally I wouldn't recommend lying around for 2 weeks, unless it has been advised by a doctor.
Get moving as soon as possible and core restoration program can be started safely immediately after childbirth.

While there’s a reason giving birth is often referred to as a gift, it’s a gift that comes with conditions. Your gorgeous new baby has arrived, but it’s left you with a body that looks completely

Amazingly well done to Kristine, who has completed 3 months of training with . Her result are just amazing!! :-)

What Kristine has to say:

"I been working with Helle at Mamassential for 3 months and have seen amazing results in that time. I have never felt stronger or healthier. Helle is passionate about fitness and it shows through the energy and enthusiasm she brings to every session. We never had the same workout, she always comes up with new ideas and exercises. I like the fact she can challenge me for more difficult exercises and heavier work out. Her easy going, friendly personality creates a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere and she clearly see my limit, and can slightly push more :) even when I think its impossible. Now I can do 50 push ups, when we started I could do hardly 3.
She motivates me to push past my perceived limits to get results.
Helle makes each workout challenging, creative and most importantly,fun! Especially love our boxing sessions.
I have incredible energy, my balance and flexibility have improved immensely and I've got great new muscles. If you are serious about changing your life for the better, Helle will lead you every step of the way.

My results are:
• 7kg weight loss
• Just under 8% fat loss
• Tighter skin
• Clothes loser
• Muscle tone improved
• Strength and fitness dramatically improved

I have more energy, feeling happy and clearly see - nothing is impossible, we all just need the right guidance.

Thank you Helle, you are the best!"

There are so many ways to structure your diet and it can often get confusing.
From personal experience, however, this approach has worked perfectly 👍

I will use my own personal example.

I have tried all 3 ways of balancing the macronutrients - and only one worked perfectly for me.

Helle:
Mesomorph
68kg = 150lbs
Very active
Fat loss / maintenance

Meal plan:
2400 kcal per day
40% carb • 30% protein • 30% fat

On this plan I Iost 6% body fat (from 20 to 14%) while keeping my performance high and feeling great with almost no cravings.
After the fat loss I maintained my new body composition.

I was curious to try the other two plans, however on both I gained weight, felt uncomfortable and my energy levels for my training decreased.

Give it a try 😉👌

There are three main body types: ectomorph, mesomorph, and endomorph. You can be a combination of body types, but will predominantly be one over the other.

Stay fit and strong during your pregnancy - as well as letting go of frustrations 😉

This is Louise doing cardio/boxing training 34 weeks pregnant!
Just WOW!! 👏

Boxing has been Louise's favourite exercise routine during her pregnancy.
It is perfectly safe as we monitor her heart rate, leaving enough time to recover and ensuring she always stays in balance.

Pad boxing is a fantastic way of getting the heart rate up outside of the gym environment.
Here we work in her own kitchen convenient to suit her work schedule and comfort.

Ps. Don't mess with this pregnant woman. She can pack a punch! 😄👌

Worth a read - and very true.

As a Pilates instructor, I can precisely analyze the function of a muscle, but when it comes to deconstructing why I get up at 5AM to run, why I go to yoga instead of out to dinner, why I always make

Here's an example of a simple and effective personalised home indoor training session.
This session is made for a mum, who has finished her post natal training and fully recovered. Her abdominal strength, balance, awareness of her body and stamina is back to normal. She is now ready to really build on her overall fitness, strength and tone.
