To relive the challenges of rebuilding from the ground up and feel those feelings of pouring everything you have through the finish brought me back to why this was my first love.

350 miles were ran to prepare for this day
and today I felt weight and true gift of every step it took for me to get here.

Thank you Lord for an able body and for the gift of bringing to life what I have always loved,
for answering countless and endless prayers over this training + this day — for running beside me every step of the way.

Here’s to giving everything you have to pursue big dreams — and continuing to believe that if a dream terrifies you, that’s even more reason why you should pursue it.

Always here to send you the truth along with (tough) love, and demystify fitness and nutrition 🫶🏻

Pregnancy + postpartum program including the 12 week deep core and pelvic floor rehab program

a focus of fueling her body with maximum balanced nutrition to optimally support pregnancy + heal during postpartum
safely + effectively weight training with prenatal mobility while prioritizing deep core health to build muscle and support labor + postpartum recovery
strategically restoring her deep core and pelvic floor health following birth while safely + intentionally reintegrating exercise throughout postpartum

“This made such a huge difference in not just my physical well-being but also my mental health during one of the hardest phases of life! What I didn’t realize is that I would feel the strongest I have ever felt during this time! Allison demystified all the myths I had in my head about working out and eating right to get results. I have always been intimidated by counting macros and lifting heavier weights, but Allison has given me the encouragement and tools to conquer those fears, all while navigating the ups and downs of pregnancy and postpartum! I learned how to safely lift the heaviest weight I ever have during pregnancy, and what I didn’t realize is that I would feel the strongest I have ever felt during this time! I also now know how to consume 110-120 grams of protein from majority whole foods as a vegetarian.

Even now during postpartum, I can already feel my body gaining strength. From completing Allison’s deep core program, at just 8 weeks postpartum my pelvic floor therapist my deep core is completely healed with no abdominal separation!

This is so different than anything else I’ve ever done. I’ve tried everything from group classes, spin and barre classes, orange theory, all the HIIT, to doing random Instagram workouts while just going through the motions. I’ve learned so much more with Allison than anything I’ve ever tried before, and now I know how to effectively train to build muscle. I’m excited to continue my postpartum journey with her and only get stronger from here. Allison isn’t just a trainer, she’s a friend who truly cares about all your questions and hopes for your body health.”
