12 Months Post Sophia

After two years of lifting heavy with minimal cardio  I'm seeing results in my core. Of course with the pregnancy thrown in there it slowed down my progress but I'm happy that at 12 months post partum I'm able to see my progress better. I've started eating more in order to gain more muscle. For awhile I was too concerned with slimming down and lost sight of my long term goal which is to gain more muscle. I stopped counting calories and am focusing more on consuming healthy carbs, fat and adequate protein. Usually getting in 100-140 grams of protein a day. I aim for a gallon of water a day but often fall short of that goal.  Excited to continue this journey.

I recently accepted a position as an intern at my Crossfit gym and am looking forward to my first day next week. Training/coaching/teaching has been something I've wanted to do for so long. In fact, it's been a dream for 4 years. Pretty thankful to have a supportive husband who makes this new venture possible and to have a great place, with amazing Coaches and training, to begin this journey. Fitness and health have been a passion of mine for almost 6 years now. In the last 6 years I haven't missed more than a week without working out with the exception of when Sophia was born. I'm excited to share my passion with others and hopefully, in one way or another, impact and encourage those around me to find their fit, healthy selves and in the process become happier people.
