SOME OF YOUR EXERCISE IN PREGNANCY QUESTIONS ANSWERED

I t’s been a long time I wrote, but trust me I have not been idle. I recently had a baby and I am glad I have some pregnancy fitness experiences to share with you. After my marriage union with my lovely husband, I began to get advice from some concerned colleagues and family about slowing down on my exercising and focusing on building a family and making babies. I wondered how exercising interfered with me achieving any of that, to my surprise some people believed that exercising was going to prevent me from conceiving. In fact, a particular ex-colleague of mine really scared me when she told me that I could just keep having miscarriages and not even know it. I did not let any of this bother me as I believed that pregnancy would happen at Gods time. Besides I had only been married for a month and still looking forward to our honeymoon. Pregnancy was certainly not on my mind at this time. To answer your first question can I conceive while exercising?

DONT QUIT YOUR 9-5 FOR A FULL TIME FITNESS CAREER UNTIL YOU READ THIS!

Fabila at the 2018 Shape Up Naija Fitness Carnival S o you are passionate about fitness, congratulations! The fitness industry has become increasingly attractive for people searching for entrepreneurship adventures. With the aid of Instagram and other social apps, people are often  swayed by the huge followings, likes and comments and led to believe that a career in fitness would be a walk in the park. I resigned from a decent paying 9-5 to go full-time as a fitness instructor. I have no regrets, it's been 6 years of learning and progression. However, I do see people who hurry out of the 9-5 only to hurry back in desperate need of a job! So before you decide to take that big leap and quit your 9-5, kindly pause and consider the following:

WORKOUT TIMING TIPS FOR 9 TO 5ERS!

H i there! How are you doing today? Lets dive straight into today's post. The most popular excuse I get from 9 to 5ers is not having time to exercise, and quite frankly I understand. There is little or no respect for employees personal time in Nigeria, so in most work environments, employees may find themselves working longer than 9-5, probably 7am-9pm on a regular basis! This coupled with the Lagos traffic leaves one with no time to do anything else but eat and sleep right? While this excuse is understandable, but if you are able to find time to watch movies, scroll through instagram, have a drink with the girls/boys, etc, then you do have time to exercise, you just do not have it as a priority. Anyway, I am not here to condemn anyone, but to offer tips to those who truly do not have time. Hopefully these tips would open your eyes to new possible ways to make your workout work!

TIPS TO AVOIDING SOCIAL MEDIA DEPRESSION!

H ello you, how are you doing today? I am doing well, still in the business of spreading happiness through dance and movement. I have written about depression long ago on this platform, but today I want to briefly talk about the negative effects of social media and how we can protect our mental and emotional health. Now I know we have all felt some level of self worthlessness (pardon my choice of words) while scrolling through Instagram, snapchat and the likes. You know, you see those glamorous destination holiday photos of people you've never met, but feel you know and you look at your life and wondering why you can't even afford a trip within Nigeria! Well, if you have never felt this way, I applaud you, you must have your life all together! We are no doubt in the social media age, everyone's on it. I have been in a certain gathering where some ladies were proudly talking about how many Instagram followers they had. At the time, I had about 400, (which is a lot, if...
