About Me
I’m a 39 year old mother of three. My passion is fitness and training, when I am not in the gym or going for a run you'll find me hanging with my family watching sports, outdoors at the beach, or snuggled up with a good book.
I love to energise and inspire others to help them with their fitness goals. My workouts are all about being fun, hard, energetic and specific.
I passionately believe in being there for each and every client, and giving 100% in every single exercise session.

“After being involved in a car accident, 5 years of intense physiotherapy and hip surgery I started training with Christina to build up strength and get things working the way they should again. Having such a serious and complicated injury I was concerned about making things worse but Christina managed to achieve the opposite with me with my hip, back and core feeling better then ever. Christina had me feeling stronger then I had felt in years within weeks. I quickly saw tone in areas I never thought possible,

“I have been training with Christina the last 5 months, since having my baby. My fitness has improved so much in this short time and I’m feeling so much more toned and ready for when I have to chase my daughter around the house.
Her programs have been fun and change with my needs to keep it exciting and challenging. I would recommend Christina to anyone wanting to improve their fitness, especially new mums.

Do your pelvic floor exercises every day.
Wait at least 6 weeks post birth (normal delivery) before doing any weights or high impact cardio.
Ensure you get clearance from your midwife, doctor or a qualified personal trainer before you embark on an exercise program
Start exercising light-moderate and slowly increase the intensity as you get stronger and fitter.
Do not diet while you are breast feeding, your baby needs you to have enough calories to produce milk.
Cutting calories while breast feeding promotes the body to think its starving, which slows down the metabolism.
If you are exercising often, make sure you increase your calories, otherwise your milk production will be affected.
Listen to your body and the hunger cues, eat small snacks often.
Try to do cardio or weight training straight after feeding baby when your breasts are empty, as this is when you will feel most comfortable.
Make sure you have plenty to drink, keep your fluids up, especially water.
Listen to your body, if you are exhausted don’t train too hard or have a rest day.
