Pregnancy is probably one of the most exciting events in a woman's life. When I found out that I was pregnant, I was over the moon, I was so excited and didn't know what to expect.

With annual events like the City to Surf, the Sydney Morning Herald Half Marathon and the Blackmores Sydney Running Festival on the calendar, there has never been a better time to start strength training in the Studio. Strength training is essential to runners as it increases muscle mass, joint health, power and speed, and decreases the likely hood of injury. In short, strength training can make you a stronger, faster and technically efficient runner, and should be a staple of every amateur and professional alike.

When we speak of specificity, we are talking about implementing exercises that are going to benefit the client, specific to their output or chosen field.

Statistically, the frequency of falls and injuries increases from the 5th decade in life*. An increase in physical inactivity and insufficient weight-bearing exercise is linked to strength loss and muscle loss.
