Muscle imbalances are 100% normal. Single side movement allows you to correct, the imbalance by focusing on one side at a time.

Correct the imbalance with the 2:1 method. Perform 2 sets of single leg exercises with the weaker leg and only one set with the stronger leg.

The glass of wine here and there and the ice cream doesn’t have to go.😝🍦🍷 It’s not about what you need to cut out, but the portion. Then balancing treats with foods that will nourish and satiate you the rest of the time.🥦🥑🍠🥚 If you are not getting the right balance of macronutrients you will not see the progress you want. Flexible dieting gives you complete control over what you eat.

It will change your perception about nutrition since you will mostly stop seeing food as good or bad but as macronutrients only. Macros will tell you exactly how much protein, carbs and fat you should eat.🤓

Is this you? ➡️Hardcore on point with your diet all week and then binging on the weekend? 🍪🍻🍟🍕🌭 Sorry sis, you are doing it wrong.🤷🏼‍♀️ Trying to going 100% hardcore clean/sad chicken/ diet meals is a one way ticket to rebounding.It’s not about cutting out the foods you love. It’s learning how to balance your intake and the output of movement.

So many women struggle with eating because we have demonized food that is healthy. We have been fed so much misinformation that women are afraid to eat fruit. We haven’t been taught the basic fundamentals of how to feed ourselves.

I don’t want to inspire you to get skinny. I want to help you take really great care of yourself. I want to guide you in making healthier decisions, in getting stronger and to loving yourself more. It’s not about what you lose, but the life you can gain.

Stop buying in to the fad diets, the fear and the placebos. 👋🏼😝It’s not about cutting out the foods you love. It’s learning how to balance your intake and the output of movement.

Flexible dieting gives you complete control over what you eat. It will change your perception about nutrition since you will mostly stop seeing food as good or bad but as macronutrients only. I will tell you exactly how much protein, carbs and fat you should eat.

If you are struggling with seeing progress, I suggest taking a look at your caloric balance! I recommend my clients track macros in order to learn about the breakdown of the foods they are eating.⤴️Click the link in my bio to join ⤴️
After almost two weeks straight of morning sickness🤮👍🏼. I am happy to report I’m finally feeling better.⁣
⁣
Not puking all day combined with some self care has me feeling like a whole new women. 🥰⚡️⁣
⁣
Shower, shaved my legs AND managed to put real clothes on!( can we say #momvictory!? )💃🏼
⁣
As soon as I took the 15-20 min to freshen myself up I started to feel like me again. ⁣💆🏼‍♀️
⁣
I know with #Momlife it’s tough to carve out time for you. But honestly, it’s essential. It’s so easy to get caught in the sweat pants rut. Make time for you. Even if it’s just taking the time to put on mascara. ⁣
⁣
⁣
Self care doesn’t have to be expensive or complicated. It can simply be taking that little be of extra time on yourself that you totally deserve. 😘
