Wendy Mahon - pre & post natal personal trainer


I am a qualified personal trainer, registered and insured to instruct one to one and group exercise by Fitness Australia. I have an additional certificate in Pre & Post Natal Exercise, allowing me to work with this very specialist group. 

I am 33 years of age and I gave birth to my first child, Jemima on 24/1/13. I was able to apply my knowledge of pre natal exercise to maintain a regular workout program, which I believe was of great benefit to both my developing baby and myself. I have found that exercise contributed hugely to a sense of physical and emotional wellbeing throughout my pregnancy. It was necessary to make adaptations along the way, due to the physical changes my body undergoes. These changes are different for each individual so I am a great believer in listening to your own body and working within the realms of what it tells you it is capable of. You can find a detailed diary of my training on this blog.

I continued to work as a personal trainer and group exercise instructor into my third trimester of pregnancy and took some part time work again when Jemima was nine months old.
