CLIENT JOURNEY – ANNIKA 💪🏻 (Part 1)

Annika was my very first client. Back in 2019, she reached out to start 1:1 personal training after going through a major surgery related to lipedema — a chronic condition that causes an abnormal buildup of fat under the skin, mostly in the legs (and sometimes the arms).

The surgery was extremely tough on her body. Most doctors advised her to wait until after having kids, but Annika decided to take control of her health. The procedure was successful — but the recovery was long, painful, and required her to literally relearn how to use her legs.

By the time she came to me, she had already worked incredibly hard on her own recovery and wanted to take her strength to the next level.

When we started, she couldn’t bend her knees to pick up a kettlebell, couldn’t lunge, and had a very weak core. So we began with the absolute basics — bodyweight exercises, muscle activation, mobility, and rebuilding movement depth.

Her main goal? To do a proper deadlift.
To get there, we focused on full-body strength and safe technique: countless dead bugs (which she still hates 😂), leg presses, extensions, hyperextensions — and eventually, lifting from a platform to nail her form and confidence.

Bit by bit, she grew stronger — adding weight, refining her technique, and never backing down, even when her body fought her.

And this was just the beginning.

Postpartum Recovery Journey — Part 4

Back to the gym and rebuilding strength 💪🏻

At 4 months postpartum, I was finally back in the gym — properly and consistently. I could lift with power again, run without pain, and truly start to push myself.

That November, we traveled to Thailand, and I joined a beach bootcamp. For the first time, I could complete nearly every exercise — jumps, pushes, pulls, runs — and even go for morning runs along the shore. Those sessions reminded me just how far my body had come and how much strength I’d rebuilt.

I’m so thankful for the preparation I did during pregnancy, and the patience and effort I put into recovery after. I was lucky to have a relatively smooth pregnancy — aside from a little pelvic girdle pain and a first-trimester hematoma — but it still took work and consistency to rebuild.

My main goal postpartum wasn’t to “bounce back.” My body went through the biggest transformation it ever will. My focus was — and always will be — on rebuilding strength, power, and control, not chasing leanness. I want to feel strong, capable, and healthy — for myself and for my baby. 💛

What was your main goal in your postpartum journey?

Postpartum Recovery Journey — Part 3
Building strength through intentional resistance ✨

After reconnecting with my core in those first few weeks, it was time to level up. I began increasing resistance, changing movement patterns, and challenging my stability to rebuild strength in both my core and pelvic floor.

Adding longer bear plank holds, adding instability with a Pilates ball, single-arm lifts, twists, and eventually introducing weights and mobility work. Because the core isn’t just about holding a plank — it’s what supports us in everyday life: picking things up, carrying objects, twisting, moving.

Consistent effort, real results. I could finally feel my core waking back up.
Next step: returning to the gym.
Stay tuned for Part 4 💛

MY POSTPARTUM JOURNEY — PART 2
Finding Connection with My Core Again 💫

5 days postpartum, I rolled out my yoga mat and began my healing journey. I had no injuries during labor and very little bleeding, so gentle movement felt right for me — but remember, every body heals differently, and it’s okay if you need more time. ❤️

At first, it was just breathing.
On all fours, I focused on relaxing my abdomen with each inhale (something many of my clients find surprisingly hard at first!).
Then on the exhale, I gently drew my belly button up and in — like zipping up from my pelvis to my ribcage — before releasing again.

This simple breathwork helped me reconnect with my core — the very first step toward rebuilding strength safely and mindfully. 🌬️

Once I started feeling that connection again, I added a tiny bit of resistance: lifting my knees just off the ground for a second or two, then lowering back down and “unzipping” the belly again. Slowly, my control and endurance grew with each session.

Next, I introduced glute bridges with a Pilates ball between my knees.
👉 Inhale to relax the abdomen and hips.
👉 Exhale, draw the belly in like a zipper, tilt the pelvis, engage the pelvic floor, and lift.
👉 Lower slowly, inhale, and release.

In the very beginning, it’s not about intensity — it’s about awareness and reconnection.
Breath is the key. 🌬️
Each movement is a conversation with your core and pelvic floor — gentle, patient, and powerful.

When I felt fully in control of these foundations, I began to add more resistance and challenge my core from new angles.

POSTPARTUM JOURNEY – PART 1 💪✨
Training Through Pregnancy 🤰🏼

The number one thing that helped me recover postpartum was staying active during pregnancy.
Maintaining muscle mass, strength, and overall movement made a huge difference — it supported my labor and massively sped up my recovery.

Of course, every pregnancy is different. Always check with your doctor before training — the priority is keeping both you and your baby safe.
For example, during my first trimester I had a hematoma in my uterus, so I had to take it slow — just gentle walks and light movement, no weights. Once I healed, I gradually returned to the gym and kept training up until two days before giving birth!

My focus was all about the posterior chain — especially the core, glutes, hamstrings, and back.
These muscles work overtime when your body carries extra weight up front. Keeping them strong helps prevent pain and injuries during pregnancy and makes rebuilding core and pelvic floor strength postpartum so much easier.

Here are my Top 3 Pregnancy Exercises:
🤰🏼 Bear Plank – On all fours, inhale to relax your belly, exhale and draw your belly button in (like zipping your abs up toward your ribs). For an extra challenge, lift your knees a few cm off the ground.
🤰🏼 RDL / Single-Leg Deadlift – A small bend in your knees, chest up, shoulders back. Hinge at the hips and lower your torso while keeping your back straight. Great for full posterior chain strength!
🤰🏼 Glute Bridges / Hip Thrusts – I loved using the machine for stability. These build your glutes, core, and pelvic floor — all essential for pregnancy and recovery.

Every pregnancy and recovery looks different — the key is listening to your body.

Keep an eye out for Part 2 of my postpartum recovery journey where I’ll share how to safely get started with postpartum training 👏🏻✨

2025 ➡️ 2024 ➡️ 2023

2 years and the biggest change of my life. 2023 - before falling pregnant, 2024 - a month post partum, 2025 - a year post partum

This was the goal picture. Hard work before, during and after pregnancy. Not to “bounce back” but to rebuild that strength. The strong foundation. Feel strong, fit, healthy again. And here we are!

It’s not a quick fix. But it is worth it 💪🏻
