Show Notes

What's up, Achievers?! Special two year wedding anniversary episode from yours truly! We just spent a wonderful weekend in Cape Cod (and crossing our fingers that the baby wouldn't come while we were stuck in traffic ha!). The first question was pure logistics - how do you continue to work on overhead pressing when you just moved, and you have to workout at home and you have low ceilings?? (1:39) Next, we talk about some modifications during pregnancy, and how to approach things from a mental and emotional standpoint because you're guaranteed to have some feelings of "feeling weaker" and "losing progress" and "not being as strong as you once were" etc. Hopefully, we give a little perspective on the matter and we hope it helps! (4:32) Finally, we talk about all the conflicting advice out there about how many sets and reps you should do for different goals. Furthermore, we talk about exercise selection, especially if you're looking to develop a specific area. (11:55). We hope you enjoyed this episode! If you did, we'd love you forever if you left a rating and review on iTunes - it seriously helps us out a lot! Please DM us @achievefitnessboston on Instagram if you have any questions you'd like us to answer. Until next time, Peace, Love, and Muscles!
