There are so many benefits to exercising during your pregnancy!

🌟 Improving or maintaining cardiovascular fitness
🌟 Maintaining strength you had prior to your pregnancy
🌟 Preparing your body for labour - bouts of exercise followed by rest repeatedly mimics labour patterns and keep your body prepared for the effort and strain of contractions placed on your body!
🌟 Preparing your body for life with a newborn! Pushing a pushchair up all of those hills, carrying your baby in the carrier, lifting the car seat along with the baby changing bag and toys and all of the shopping you did at the supermarket: being a mum is a superpower okay?
🌟 Exercise can sometimes alleviate symptoms of morning sickness (now for those of you who are experienced in this area might think how on earth do you exercise when feeling sick?! So, be prepared it’s not all the time but it can definitely help some of you!)
🌟 Improving and maintaining your mental well-being - when we exercise we release those feel good hormones that make us feel amazing inside 🌈 pregnancy hormones can make us women feel emotional, or tired and stressed so those endorphins can only do us good right?
🌟 Can support those sore and achey joints - the pregnancy hormone RELAXIN tells your ligaments to go soft and supple to prepare your birth canal for birth. This happens from early on in pregnancy to all of your ligaments not just those in your pelvis! Keeping muscles strong can reduce the load on the ligaments and keep your joints well supported and supple!
🌟 Exercise is well known to aid sleep, which is what you need when you’re growing a life inside you right? Do I need to go on?

💜 The list is endless and these are just to name a few of the reasons to exercise in your pregnancy. However, exercise isn’t for everyone - your GP or midwife may explicit that you should modify your exercise in pregnancy or stop all together if you have any complications or risk factors. Always speak to your healthcare professional first. Pregnancy brings about changes in the body so modifications are usually recommended, especially in trimesters 2 & 3.

the only person you should be seeking validation from is yourself. Before you can grow 🌱 you must let go 👊🏼🖐🏼✨ Let go of your inner critic, let go of your ego, let go of what you think people think about you. All that matters is YOU.
Never let anyone make you feel ashamed or guilty for who you are. Exercise, movement, nutritional changes should come from a place of LOVE 💗 not hatred. Do it because you love it and want to do it, not because you hate it or have to do it. Do it for YOU, and only you 💫 you are worthy, you are enough, you are beautiful. ps there is more to life than losing weight

Set your alarms for 8am tomorrow as we start our first Facebook Live 30 minute workout with Millis Training! Ideally you will need something to add resistance - some dumbbells (or candles, water bottles or fill small bags with whatever you can find in the house!) or a short resistance band. I’m looking forward to seeing you there and hopefully some of you can catch up later if you’re early morning workers! 🌟 Any questions just ask! Tillie x

You’d think by the end of 2020 that we might have gotten over the fear of carbs, but I still see it everywhere. Poor bread seems to get the brunt of the blame in the diet industry. I used to avoid bread when I was at college, in fact I used to avoid a lot food - not just carbohydrates. That is why I lost a lot of weight rather quickly. Not because I wasn’t eating bread, but because of my lack of knowledge around food and nutrients, it meant that I feared many foods and therefore my calorie intake was rather low. Was I healthy? Most definitely not, I would rather eat a small sugary chocolate bar than a banana because it contained less calories - is that what you call healthy?
My philosophy around diet and nutrition has changed a lot. I don’t believe in cutting out any food groups (unless you have allergens or dietary choice - I am vegan for the animals after all!) Food forms an integral part of our social and emotional systems. We eat to celebrate, we eat when we’re sad, we eat alone, we eat together. Being confident in your knowledge about nutrition means that you will never have to skip a meal or say no to brunch with your friends because you are in control. Denying yourself these moments and memory making opportunities, is it REALLY worth it? Calorie counting is a whole other ball game to attend but what I’m trying to say here is, bread is your friend - not your enemy. Especially now lockdown is here, now is not the time to be making drastic changes to your diet, or even going on “a diet”. Now is the time to be kind to yourself. Accept yourself for who you are, make peace with your body and learn to nourish it with food and movement. You will be just fine. Knowledge is power and what an amazing power to have. If you have any questions about nutrition or have any bread related questions, please ask. (Bread related recipes in the comments also welcome) 😊🥯🍞🥖🥐

Schedule for lockdown workouts! Starting Monday! These will be going live on my page Millis Training at the times agreed on here. They will be for 30 minutes each (40 minutes for full body!) They should be available to watch later in the day too. I can’t wait to see as many of you there as I can! We are here for some fun, to get our bodies moving and get filled with feel-good endorphins!- I will be with you every step of the way. Any questions please feel free to message me!
A set of dumbbells (or candles or water bottles) will get you through! Or a set of small affordable resistance bands (I can recommend some from amazon if you need!)

⚠️ DISCLAIMER ⚠️
As these workouts are free to all, please make sure you are safe to exercise either self cleared or medically cleared to exercise by your health care professional if you have any existing health conditions. Same goes to any pre or post natal exercisers, you should be cleared to exercise by your midwife or GP. Although the sessions made pre and post natal “friendly” they may not be for everyone, please listen to your body, you know what is best! If you experience any side effects whilst exercising, stop immediately and contact your midwife or GP.

Lockdown 2.0 is commencing on Thursday. Telling people to “stay positive” might not always be the best thing to say. “I’m here for you” or “call me anytime” might be even better. Please know that you are not alone, your mental health is just as important as your physical health. And, in fact, they both go hand in hand. This is why I’m offering free workouts during lockdown on my page. They will be 30 minutes long and most will be safe during pregnancy and the post natal period (each workout will specify). I will post the schedule soon along with any equipment needs!). I will also be offering zoom sessions for a more personalised approach for £20 with a free consultation. You will be seeing a lot of exercise and diet related posts during lockdown, telling you to do one thing or another. Please note, you have to do what is best for you. You get to decide and that’s the most amazing thing. Don’t feel pressured into exercising because everyone else is, find a reason for YOU. Maybe a quick 20-30 minute session will clear your mind before you get back to working at your laptop or will make you feel more energised to finish the day. Or maybe you’re feeling a bit stressed being cooped up with family or from the extra workload being given to you during this time. Maybe you’re feeing lethargic - that feeing when getting off the sofa seems the most impossible task in the world, perhaps some movement will make you feel better. Do it for YOU and no one else. The TYPE of exercise is also important. Just because everyone is doing HIIT workouts or running, don’t feel pressured to do those either. Try a new dance, combat or Pilates workout on youtube or one that your local fitness provider is running on zoom
