BEMORE STUDIO

At Bemore studio we pride ourselves on our expertise and experience in helping clients reach their goals, whatever they may be.  Our trainers are non judgemental, patient, trusting and passionate in helping you. Whatever your goals we can help. Whether its to lose weight, strengthen, tone, get fit! We have a trainer for you.  

There are several benefits of personal training. These include:

  • Teaching you the correct form: A personal trainer will guide you on how to perform exercises correctly and safely. If you’re new to the gym or new to lifting weights, getting the technique right is vital.
  • Hold an objective eye: When working out alone, you can’t always tell if you need to adjust your posture, position, or range of movement. Personal trainers monitor your form during your training and correct you if necessary.
  • Knowledge and experience: PTs must stay up to date with industry trends and training methods, which will save you time from doing all the research yourself.
  • Push your limits: Personal trainers are passionate and supportive, but they’ll also challenge and motivate you to push yourself further.
  • Helping you reach your goals:  Trainers are there to help you reach your goals safely and more effectively then if you were to train alone. 

Results do not happen over night. Results will also depend on how often you train a week and your dedication and commitment while away from the gym. The more sessions per week you train the quicker you will reach your goals. 

 

During the consultation, the trainer will go more in-depth and nail down specific and agreeable goals.  Your trainer will come up with a plan on the best steps to reach your goal whether that be home workouts, nutrition, referral to other professionals. This is a good time to figure out if you both can work together and then put steps in place to move forward. Finding a trainer is a very PERSONAL thing and you have to find the right trainer for you. Once you have both decided to work together, the first step is complete!

As we get older our muscle strength and bone density decreases and it becomes harder and harder to lose weight. How many times have you asked yourself …

“I am exercising every day, doing 1 hour of cardio. Why can’t I get rid of the fat around my middle?”

Menopause has got a bad rep over the years of terrible pain, weight gain, hot flushes, osteoporosis, pelvic floor dysfunction but it really does not have to be this way. There are a lot of misconceptions of the menopause. Not only is there life after menopause but it can be a really good life too! You don’t have to just survive the menopause, you can THRIVE before, during and after the menopause.

Menopause is not a disease or illness that has to be medicated or managed. If you are having symptoms or discomfort during the menopause, it is your body telling you you are lacking something, or it needs a little attention from you. Once you start listening and paying attention to your body then your body will learn to trust you again.

We want to crush the misconceptions of peri and post menopause and change women’s lives. Menopause has gotten a bad reputation over the years. A time of trauma, hot flushes, pelvic floor dysfunction, weight gain, uncontrollable, mood changes, osteoporosis. It does not have to be this way. There is life after menopause, a good life! 

Let us help you bring the joy back in to your life. We don’t want you just surviving Menopause but thrive before, during and after. 

MetStrong aims to reset your metabolism and balance hormones by addressing some key stressors in your life. You may not even be going through the menopause but once you hit the 35 mark its harder to lose the weight.

Over this 6 weeks training course you get; 

  • Weekly training sessions. You can choose 2-5 45 minute training sessions a week. Training sessions are specifically programmed for the needs of women over 35 who are looking to burn fat, build muscle and strengthen bones. We always end each session with a chat about the topic and goals of that week.
  • We will address 6 topics over the 6 weeks to include Hormones, Hormone replacement, Nutrition, Exercise, Stress and Sleep and Life Laundry. 
  • Video home workouts to do on the days you are not training with us or you can attend our large group training sessions.
  • Food diary and nutrition advice. If you require more one on one attention we work with specialist nutritionists who can help. 
  • Phone and email support.

The set up is great, small and friendly. The sessions are brilliant, the passion, energy and smiles from the trainers and staff is contagious. They will support you, nudge you in the right direction and laugh with you, encouraging you to push yourself harder, making suggestions and adapting exercises to suit you.

I was really unfit and quite honestly unhealthy when I joined. I am feeling fantastic, stronger and fitter everyday. I look forward to going and my mental health has improved greatly.

Pregnancy

During pregnancy everything shifts. The baby pushes up towards your diaphragm, down on your pelvic floor and forwards toward your midline of your abs. Many pregnancy fitness plans neglect the core and stay away from functional movement which is the key to a healthy and pain free pregnancy. Our workouts are not just about fitness. Its about having a healthy pregnancy where you can feel your best and which in turn will help you recover quicker. You will learn about core separation, pelvic floor, how to move safely and nutrition advice. 

Many mothers suffer from weak pelvic floor and core and you don’t have to be one of them. What if I told you that you do not have to suffer the negative effects of motherhood. What If I told you that what you do during your pregnancy can have a positive effect on your postnatal recovery.  

Pregnancy goals:

  • Maintain proper core connection

  • Lessen chance of pelvic floor dysfunction

  • Lessen chance of severe ab separation

  • Lessen chance of stretch marks

  • Alleviate common discomforts

  • and begin prepping your recovery!

Carlie is an amazing personal trainer! She makes sure you are engaging the right muscles throughout. I saw some great results and felt so much stronger after 6 months of training after having my first child and I’m hoping for the same now after my second. The workouts are varied and fun! Couldn’t recommend her enough

You've taken 9 months to grow a baby, now give your body some love and time to heal! 

Did you know that what you do in your every day life after giving birth is weakening you and slowing down your recovery. We do this day in and day out without realising it. Every movement and task we carry out can either have a positive or negative effect on your body. How you exercise, stand up, sit down, pick up your baby, hold your baby, carry your car seat. Changing daily habits is the KEY to becoming pain free and stronger. 

Postpartum goals:

  • Enhance the tension within the linea alba

  • Narrow your waist

  • Flatten your stomach

  • Improve continence

  • Improve your self-confidence

  • and improve your core function and aesthetic.

Our training programs focus on CORE and BREATHING connection. Lets give the proper time and attention it needs and has been missing. We aim to reconnect your breathing and your core which will dramatically change how you look, feel and move.

From Birth to 8 weeks 

The foundations need to be laid and these 8 weeks are crucial healing time, not only for short term recovery but also for your future as a mum, wife, woman and for potential pregnancies.  It is a general consensus that you have to wait 6-8 weeks when you have had the go ahead from your doctor before you engage in any type of exercise. When we talk about exercise after giving birth we are not talking about running or jumping jacks. This is the time for gentle exercises to awaken the core and pelvic floor and start reconnecting the brain with muscles that have otherwise been disconnected during pregnancy. Women usually wait until the green light from their doctor and expect to be strong enough to go back to exercise they were doing pre-pregnancy. Your core strength does not bounce back at the 6 weeks mark. You have to do the right type of work before hand. This course will teach you how to use your diaphragm, control your pelvic floor and engage your core muscles. 

During this 8 weeks course you will get ;

  • 8 weekly 1-2-1 sessions VIA ZOOM 
  • Continued guidance and support 
  • Exercises to do at home
  • Learn about ab separation and pelvic floor and how to stop negative affects on them. Prevent and heal pains, Diastasis Recti and incontinence. 
  • Banish Postpartum myths with up to date postpartum fitness and wellbeing.
  • Guidance in dealing with lifestyle, nutrition, emotional and physical care.
  • Meals and snack ideas

Over the 8 weeks we will focus on activation not strengthening. 

Let us guide you on the road to healing your body and not make the mistakes many women make! 

Make sure you have got your doctors go ahead for this program before you sign up.  

I met Carlie through joining her fantastic boogie bug fitness classes which I’ve done for well over a year and am now doing personal training with her too. I absolutely love our sessions. She works you hard but makes them a lot of fun too.
What makes Carlie a unique personal trainer is her postnatal specialist training and is a mum herself. I am a specialist women’s health physiotherapist and unfortunately see so many new mums with pelvic floor or back problems who have received the wrong exercise advice or simply don’t know what exercise is safe to do after giving birth. From training with Carlie she has an excellent understanding and knowledge of postnatal changes to the body and will help you lose weight and get you strong in a safe and correct way. I can honestly say if you’re a new mum wanting to get back in shape and work on that pelvic floor you will not find a better trainer than Carlie.

Core restore 

Do you find you still have a mummy pouch? No matter what you do you just can’t seem to get rid of it. Do you suffer with a weak pelvic floor, back ache, incontinence?

If you have never addressed the issues you encountered during and after pregnancy, you can be postnatal years after going birth. No matter when you had a baby you can still suffer with these issues.
