Today with us on the Incite Change Podcast, Coach Mauro sits down with colleague and family friend Elya.
Elya who is now a mom of 3, is an example to many as she has been able to overcome life’s hurdles and continues to be consistent in her fitness journey. Having experienced health concerns, she decided to take a serious approach to make health and fitness a part of her lifestyle as opposed to just “fitting” it in.
She takes us through her fitness journey which started small and was not only all about working out, but also learning and understanding why tracking and eating right is important. She breaks down having that healthy balance of fitness and family life and her experience of still being able to safely workout when expecting her third child.
Like every mother trying to balance it all, she speaks about the importance of becoming mentally ready and understanding that getting back to your pre-pregnancy body will take time and patience. And understanding that you not only need to be good and healthy for yourself, but also for your kids and family.
Elya’s closing advice is to find support with your fitness journey whether through your family or your coach as that will help you to be successful.
