“What if something happens?” That fear alone stops a lot of women from staying active once they find out they’re pregnant.

But research tells a different story.

Regular physical exercise during pregnancy is associated with numerous benefits, and the key is making sure your exercise is adapted to your fitness level, your medical history, and how your pregnancy is progressing. (PMID: 34478617)

The goal is to move in a way that feels right for your body, safely and with the right support around you. Let’s normalise keeping pregnant women moving, because they deserve to feel strong at every stage!

Is 2–3 sessions a week really enough?

We get asked this a lot. And the honest answer is, it completely depends on your goals!

But for most clients who walk through our doors, especially those just starting out, it’s genuinely enough. Intensity and frequency don’t necessarily produce results on their own,
It’s about training in a way you’ll actually stick to.

This is why your lifestyle, schedule, energy and goals are important for us to take into account before giving you a program. Let’s build something that actually helps you stay
consistent in the long run.

Freda watched her mum break her femur falling from a standing position. No sudden movement, no accident. Due to a lack of strength.

She thought to herself that this could be her future, or not

Strength training isn’t about vanity. It’s about protecting the years ahead. Because when you take care of yourself, you’re able to take care of the people you love.

That’s the ripple effect we preach at MOVE. To move well, is to live more. Not just for tomorrow, but for the many years to come down the road.

The word “personalization” in fitness gets thrown around a lot. But what does it actually mean?

It doesn’t always mean doing something completely different from everyone else. Sometimes it means doing the same things, but understanding why it fits where you’re at right now.

Two different people could have the same goal whilst doing the same exercise, but whether that looks like a barbell or just your bodyweight depends on you. That’s personalization!

A good coach doesn’t just write you a program, it’s about knowing when changes need to be made, and whether what you’re doing actually fits your body, your lifestyle, and your goals right now.

That’s what we do at MOVE.

“How long does it take to see results?” Short answer: it depends.

Everyone starts somewhere different, with different goals, different baselines, and different lifestyles.

That’s why there’s no one-size-fits-all answer. We need to know where your starting point is before anything else.

What we do know is that strength tends to improve first, followed by muscle growth, which takes longer as it’s a structural change.

But how fast any of it happens also comes down to what you do outside of your training sessions. Your sleep, your nutrition, your stress levels and your daily habits all play a role 💤

Training gives your body the stimulus. Everything else determines how well it responds!

Everyone’s timeline looks different, and that’s okay. But with guidance, consistency, and a little patience, progress is inevitable. 👊

This is what most diets miss — flexibility.

Ate heavily at lunch? Adjust dinner.
Skipped a meal? Lean into something more substantial in your next one.

There are no “fails”, just adjustments to be made.

Because no single food makes or breaks your diet. The overall pattern and consistency matter more.

That’s what this series has been about. Learning to adjust, adapt and be flexible so that nutrition feels less overwhelming and a lot more something you can actually live with.

If you’ve enjoyed this 3 part series and picked up something new about how to make food work for your goals, save this for the next time you need a reminder. 👊

This Father’s Day, we put our MOVE dads on the spot with a few important questions.

No scripting — and somehow, the answers all pointed back to the same thing.

Turns out, the biggest joys in life are always the simplest ones!

Shoutout to all the dads who show up and protect the ones they love. Happy Father’s Day! 🤍

Everything on the outside looked successful. But her health was at its lowest.

Before becoming a coach, YC was a strategy consultant turned entrepreneur. Fitness was never part of the plan. But persistent health issues crept into her daily life, and for a long time, back pain was something she quietly lived with.

Through strength training, she regained what was lost. The freedom and ability to move without pain.

That experience led her to bring her mum along. One year later, her mum’s knee pain was completely gone.

Today, Coach carries that same passion into every session at MOVE. Helping others move well, live more!

That’s what moves her. 🫶🏻

“I eat so clean already, why am I not losing weight?”

This quadrant might finally answer that question.

Peanuts, avocado, salmon, coconut milk. All of them sit in the high calorie, high nutrient corner. Genuinely good nutritionally, but calorie-dense. And that’s exactly where the disconnect happens.

The same applies to swaps you’d never think twice about:
* Fresh fruits vs a fruit smoothie
* Canned fish in oil vs water
Same source, but completely different place on the quadrant!

The point isn’t to eliminate any of the quadrants completely. None of it is off the table. 🍽️

But understanding where your food actually sits helps you make smarter, more informed decisions about your nutrition.

In the next video, we get into how to actually use this for your goal.
