'I highly recommend Katharine at KC Fitness. I began pre-natal training with her at 18 weeks pregnant for my 2nd pregnancy and could not believe the difference it made compared to 1st pregnancy. From our first meeting Katharine understood my training capabilities and designed a unique programme every week that suited me and my body. After each session I left feeling fantastic and it especially worked wonders with water retention and carpal tunnel which I struggled with. I slept better, no back strain and I felt much stronger. As well as being an expert in her field Katharine's kind, friendly nature and fun sense of humour made each session even more enjoyable. Looking forward to our post natal training!'

I have been training with Katharine weekly for a few months now during my second and third trimesters.
Katharine has created a tailored programme for my needs that always includes lots of variety each week; from gentle weights, to bands, TRX and cardio activity. Our sessions has evolved to suit each stage in pregnancy.
Katharine has been very flexible to my schedule with wonderful outdoor training sessions on sunny days and at home training on more overcast days. Katharine has always gone above and beyond our weekly training session by regularly keeping in touch with short exercise programmes to be getting on with at home and also any dietary advice needed.
Personally, I have not only maintained a good level of fitness during my pregnancy but I have noticed considerable health benefits too which I put down to personal training. For me, this has included moderate weight gain in pregnancy and no noticeable pregnancy aches and pains even in the third trimester!
I always leave our training sessions on a high and look forward to the next session!
I cannot recommend Katharine highly enough and hope you enjoy your fitness journey with her as much as I have.
Post natal exercise
Returning to movement and exercise after pregnancy is something you might be looking forward to doing BUT! You must only start when your body has recovered from the initial effects of birth (minimum of 6 weeks from natural birth and 8-12 weeks for a C-section) and then it's a slow but steady return to exercise ensuring time spent on core and pelvic floor specifically.
Katharine can work around nap times and come to your home to ensure you get the most of precious time! Get in touch with Katharine now.
