Ok, so this is the first guest post on my blog. It came from a young breastfeeding mother and I'm very happy about her progress. Not only because she is my dear sister :) but also because she is very diligent and allaronund excellent trainee!
The post consist of two parts. First one is in slovenian language and the second is in english. So here it is..
REZULTATI TRENINGA POD VODSTVOM TRENERJA IVANA
Moje ime je Marija in sem mati dveh otrok. Po drugi nosečnosti in porodu mi je ostalo kar nekaj
odvečnih kilogramov. Odvisno od izhodiščnega stanja
(pred prvo ali pred drugo nosečnostjo) 10-15 kilogramov viška.
Pred seboj sem imela cilj: obleči prednosečniško garderobo še preden se po
porodniški odsotnosti vrnem nazaj v službo.
Za pomoč sem prosila trenerja Ivana. 6 tednov po
porodu sem začela trenirati pod njegovim vodstvom. Sprva je bil izziv
vriniti uro treninga trikrat na teden v pester urnik dneva. Kasneje sem
ugotovila, da gredo otroški voziček in igranje starejšega
otroka v peskovniku ali z najljubšimi igračami medtem ko mamica slabo uro trenira,
prav lepo skupaj.
Prehrano nismo pretirano spreminjali, ker sem še
polno dojila in zato nisem želela eksperimentirati. Spremenila sem
zgolj dve stvari: iz prehrane sem izločila sladkorje (sladkarije, sladkani
sokovi…) in zmanjšala vnos ogljikovih hidratov (manj
kruha, testenin, čim manj nezdravih prigrizkov…). Še posebej mi je bilo všeč,
da se je trener Ivan časovno in lokacijsko popolnoma
prilagodil meni (kar je za mamico dveh malih otrok nujno). Treningi pa so bili
zasnovani tako, da sem lahko vse odvadila doma. Ni mi bilo treba hoditi
nikamor, iskati varstva ali celo plačevati dodatno članarino za
vadbene klube ali fitnese, da bi vadila tam. V tednu dni sem morala najti le 3x
po 1 uro časa, da sem vadila po planu treningov, ki jih je pripravil
trener.
Treningi pod budnim očesom trenerja in vadba po njegovih
skrbno pripravljenih individualiziranih programih je hitro pokazala rezultate.
Tudi na tehtnici. Ker sem analitičen tip sem izgubo kilogramov tedensko
beležila. Vsak teden je tehtnica pokazala v povprečju
dobrega 0,5 kg manj. Kar je po štirih mesecih vadbe pomenilo kar 10 kg
manj kot sem jih imela preden sem začela trenirati s trenerjem Ivanom.
A s časoma sem ugotovila, da glavni in
najpomembnejši rezultati niti približno niso številke na tehtnici. Od kar treniram je
počutje veliko boljše, imam veliko več energije, več
moči, veliko manjšo konfekcijsko številko, bolj
zdrav in kakovosten življenjski slog. In še
bi lahko naštevala.
Večino kosov prednosečniške
garderobe lahko oblečem, nekateri so mi celo preveliki.
Kilogrami so se stopili. A zdaj imam drugi cilj, ki ni povezan s številkami,
ki jih pokaže tehtnica. Cilj je postal, kot je trener Ivan povedal že
na začetku, premičen. Konstantno skrbeti za vedno boljšo
psiho fizično pripravljenost. Pri tem pa je izguba odvečnih
kilogramov in maščobnih oblog ter bolj čvrsto telo zgolj nujen postranski učinek.
Vztrajam pri vadbi pod strokovnim vodstvom trenerja Ivana in
ga priporočam. Tehtnico pa lahko pospravim.
RESULTS OF
TRAINING WITH COACH IVAN
My name is Marija and I am mother of two. After
second pregnancy and childbirth I had a few extra pounds to lose. Depending on
the initial situation (before the first or before the second pregnancy) there
were 22-33 too much. I had a goal: to wear before pregnancy wardrobe again and
before the maternity leave ends and I get back to work.
I asked
coach Ivan to help me. 6 weeks after giving birth I started to train under his
leadership. At first it was a challenge to squeeze an hour of training three
times a week in a diverse schedule of the day. Later I found out that my
training go very nice together with stroller and older child playing in the sandbox
or with favorite toys while mommy is practicing.
We did not
change food much, because I was still full breastfeeding my baby and so I was
not prepared to experiment much with food. I changed only two things: I
eliminated sugars from the diet (candy, sweetened juices ...) and decreased
carbohydrate intake (less bread, pasta, minimize unhealthy snacks ...). I
especially liked that the trainer Ivan completely adjusted timing and location to
me (which is for mother of two small children necessary). Trainings were
designed in such a way that I could do them completely all at home. I did not
need to go anywhere; I did not have to seek for babysitting during my
training, or even pay extra fees for fitness clubs to practice there. I just
have to find a 3 times a week 1 hour of time to train according to plan,
prepared by the coach.
Training
under the watchful eye of Coach Ivan and exercise in his carefully prepared
individualized programs quickly showed results. Results were seen also on the
scales. Because I'm an analytical type, I recorded my weight loss per week.
Each week the scales showed an average one pound less. This, after four months of
training, resulted in 22 pounds less than I had before I started to train with
Coach Ivan.
But
eventually I realized that the main and most important results are not merely
numbers on the scales. As I started to train I feel much better, I have a lot
more energy, more strength, much smaller wardrobe size, the more healthy and
quality lifestyle. And the list goes on.
Most of the
pieces before pregnancy wardrobe, I can wear. Some pieces are even too big now.
Pounds have melted. But now I have another goal that is not associated with
numbers that scales show. The aim is, as coach Ivan said at the beginning,
constantly changing. Goal is gaining better and better psycho-physical
condition. In this context, the loss of weigh, loss of body fat and gaining
firmer muscles are only necessary secondary effect.
I continue
on training under the expert guidance of Coach Ivan and
recommend it.
