  2. BEFORE KIDS & AFTER KIDS Pregnancy and a changing body doesnt have to scare you. The most important take away from this should be that you are in charge of you, whether you have kids or not, you can always comeback BETTER from something. Whether thats physically or mentally, its going to be your mindset and HOW you commit to things. BEFORE - a little more information about this, it was 2019, I was already a fitness professional, I already worked out 4-5x each week, I already ate healthy. This isnt a before im ashamed of, I think I worked hard and looked good AFTER- these are all clips of me after not only 1, but 2 kids. So what is the it factor? It was realizing that there is a difference between just going through the motions and actually doing something correctly, with intention - intention in the breath and in the movement. For me that was @timeundertensionapp In 2020, i got pregnant for the first time and had my first baby, its also the year I had to build my strength up from ground zero. Building back up from feeling at my weakest gave me an appreciation for my body, and an appreciation for really understanding the basics and truly understanding the movement Im doing and the muscles Im targetting I created @timeundertensionapp to share that appreciation with all of you, hoping that you not only enjoy the movement but also learn something new that helps you do your movements in a more effective way, and get the most out of your workouts, even the ones you do where I am not your coach. 7 day free trial running what are you waiting for

  3. Allow me to reintroduce myself...my name is Kelly Cole. I am a mother of 2 girls and trainer born, raised, and based in New York. Although I found my way to fitness, it wasnt my first job, I had to make a conscience decision to leave my office job to pursue fitness full time. My background is in megaformer pilates. I love the slow and controlled pilates inspired movements but also love that the megaformer allows you to work also with some heavier resistance. When the pandemic hit I was programming much more for virtual 1:1 clients from home, but also for my own personal workouts. As a woman who was recently pregnant, but also in general, I was underwhelmed with my at home options, mat pilates lacked the athleticism and intensity I craved and bootcamp felt too aggressive on my body without allowing me to properly activate and engage with the right muscles. And so the story goes, CREATE WHAT YOU WISH EXISTED, and so I did. @timeundertensionapp combines the strength training and cardio elements of a bootcamp style class, with the slow and controlled pilates style movements that help focus on proper muscle activation, breath to movement and of course the mind body connection. Aside from this beautiful union of modalities rolled into one, I aim to be annoyingly explicit with my verbal cues to help clients understand what muscles we are working and how they can connect to those muscles more deeply, which will translate into greater body awareness and of course a more effective workout. Something that experiencing child birth twice has given me is the importance of breathing, and the mind body connection in regards to how we feel and experience our workouts. I would like to think that this awareness and focus is something I help translate to clients through form focused verbal cues and attention to detail around effective programming, which at its core is pilates inspired and aimed around muscular endurance. Lets be better than ever together

  3. Nicki Minaj Pose Challenge 💅 but show em who’s boss 😂 Not a full time fitness influencer, but a full time working mom who is passionate about pushing others to their limits to see what they’re capable of! This summer has felt rough and dark at points so I needed a spark of light, which is what happens when I turn to fitness to solve my problems. “They holler at me…this ain’t high school” So glad I didn’t peak in high school because many adults are still living there 😉 My husband and I also discussed the physics of this challenge and how it was strange that influencers who are not fit are effortlessly achieving this feat - but the surface area of the dumbbells are barely large enough to fit an average foot? Long story short, don’t try this at home unless you’re okay with risking injury like I am, and don’t believe every dumb thing - or every dumbbell - you see on social media. I’m stunting here, but real fitness is not about stunts. It’s about boring, repetitive, consistent habits like eating clean, walking, running, biking, and lifting heavy weights. To key is to find some joy in any one of these activities! 💪🏽 Hope everyone is having a healthy and happy summer. Stay blessed, stay strong. . . . Thanks to the talented @motionbymadison for her camera work and moral support - peep my stories for some behind the scenes footage.
