Prepare for pregnancy - train, fuel & connect

Ready for a new chapter in your life? If so, this episode may be for you.

As a trainer and coach for women, I've worked many times with pregnant women and those who'd love to become pregnant at some point in their lives. Of course, you don't need to do any sort of "pregnancy prep," but some things will be a lot easier for you if you decide to do so.

In this episode, I'll talk about:

• Why preparation for pregnancy is the best start to a "healthy living journey" you could imagine
• Which three points are the most important when thinking about growing a child in your body
• What to train and why
• Why mindset matters
• Why motivation is the key at this point in life
• Why cortisol and other stress hormones play a big role when it comes to the baby's health and your coexistence

for those of you who are interested in some studies about pregnancy & movement during pregnancy, here are some studies & articles
