Bio
I am a busy fitness trainer specializing in pre/post rehab fitness. I graduated from the University of Guelph with a B.Sc.(HK). I am a Certified Personal Trainer with 10 years experience, certified Pre/Post Natal Specialist and certified Medical Exercise Specialist. During my first pregnancy I started working on a fitness program. I had a great pregnancy. At the delivery there were complications that left me with injuries such as torn psoas and adductor muscles,drop foot syndrome and severe weakness in my right leg. I was diligent with my rehabilitation work. I returned to work 2 months after my first baby was born, slightly limping still, but managable. I worked on my strength so I was prepared for another pregnancy. I tested my fitness program again during my second pregnancy and recovery. I am now a proud, fit and strong mother of 2 young children. I love fitness and have been inspired to share my fitness knowledge with other mothers.

Your program looks very interesting – but thought I should let you know I was turned off by the use of the bottle graphics – doesn’t seem like you are breastfeeding friendly. Yes I know moms use bottles but formula is less than healthy and healthy seems to be what you are about. There are so many others baby images that could be used to avoid the whole issue.

This blog is about fitness and has nothing to do with the judgement of how women feed their babies.

Hi Jacqueline,
My name is Shane Smith and my wife and I live in Orange County. We have four children, ages 6 months to 9 years old, so needless to say, we have an “active” schedule. I’m writing to you in regards to a new social-networking site being developed by my father, Dr. S. Clarke Smith, of Anaheim….called: zipmatch.org
The site is dedicated solely to helping individuals and groups find others in their geographical area who share the same interest in a particular sport or activity. My father has been very active throughout his career in dealing with the issues of obesity, and the many health problems it causes.
I would like to introduce you, and your site members to this new site, and ask that you sign up for our email updates that will announce our launch on 1-11-11. The more users we have for the beta-testing will give us a better opportunity to “fine tune” the site for the Spring Launch, nationwide. I commend you on your website, and look forward to helping you and your members get out, and get active again! Have a great afternoon.
