Pregnancy and Postpartum Workout Series

I’m excited to share my biggest project yet – I had a baby boy 2 months ago! Â This journey has been one of the most physically challenging and rewarding things I’ve ever done. I worked out my entire pregnancy and will be sharing my pregnancy workouts, how I plan on getting back in shape and also my experience running a marathon while pregnant. I’ve decided to share myÂ journey on my blog because it relates to health and fitness and I hope to help many other women that have gone through or are going through this process. I kept track of all of my workouts (I worked out up until the week I had my baby) and will share pregnancy workout tips and also my journey of getting back in shape postpartum.

I realize not all of my blog subscribers are interested in this topic – so I will not send out emails for this. If you ARE interested, just be sure to check my blog periodically and look under the categories Baby and Pregnancy.

Hi! I'm Cari! I'm a fitness star turned Mom of 3 who lives in Houston, TX. Getting fit and healthy is a journey and one I understand well. After graduating from college I worked in a corporate setting for many years and gained a lot of weight and had an unhealthy lifestyle. Finally, after I had enough - I decided to regain my healthy lifestyle that I had in college by fitting in workouts and eating healthier. Eventually, I left my corporate job to become a full-time personal trainer and group fitness instructor. I also created Bombshell Bootcamp over 10 years ago and it has become one of Houston's top bootcamps! My passion then turned into greater opportunities to write workouts for national magazines, appear on tv doing workouts and speaking about healthy and fitness, making fitness DVD's and working with many celebrities. Fast forward a few years....and then I had my first baby! I'm now a Mom of 3 little ones and try to incorporate healthy living and exercise in our family's lives. Not only do I still blog about workouts and fitness, but I have shifted some to include family fitness, family travel, fashion, health/beauty and general lifestyle.
