Strong After Birth | Postpartum Fitness & Body Image Support for Christian Moms

Two Sneaky Obstacles Holding you Back from Taking your Training to the Next Level
Strong After Birth | Postpartum Fitness & Body Image Support for Christian Moms
Some of the biggest obstacles that we face in our training progress aren't the ones that we can see or feel. They're the ones that we don't even know are there. I call them "rocky roadblocks" and without addressing them, we can quickly become stuck in the same rut year after year of hopping "on and off" the wagon in our fitness journey. What if you didn't have to feel "stuck" what if you knew exactly what was getting in your way AND how to overcome it so you can take your training to the next level. Imagine how much faster your progress would go, and how much stronger and more capable you'd feel about your body.
In today's episode, you'll discover exactly what those "hidden" obstacles are and how to overcome them so you can take your training to the next level.
