Flexible Approach

Life with kids is extremely busy so These Mums Do has been created to enable Mums to incorporate a fitness plan into their weekly routine.  Through small group sessions in the gym, Personal Training or in the classes across Trafford with the ability to train with your babies/toddlers present in the days or when they’re tucked up in bed in the evening.

These Mums Do is for both the novice exerciser as well as experienced one, with all sessions tailored to individual client’s needs.

Get Active

Each session will focus on improving your fitness levels, working the core muscles and having fun!  I want to not only help Mums on their fitness journey, but also help them to meet new people, make new friends, get some support and get active.

Its all about building a community as when women support women, incredible things happen.  There is something for everyone at These Mums Do so stop thinking about it and just go for it

My Aim

Is to make training affordable to everyone and help Mums recognise their potential.  The whole ethos is about making Mums realise they can do anything, be anyone and surprise themselves.  I also want to impart my love of exercise – especially running, on others.  I’m a huge believer in the idea that everyone can run, as long as they have the right tools and training #thesemumsdo

Facts About Me

In terms of the facts for you – I’m a Level 3 qualified trainer specialising in pre and post-natal fitness and am an official England Athletics Run Leader.  I offer a range of services to Mums – group classes at the same time and place every week, online classes, 1:1 personal training and small group training sessions.

Everything can be tailored for all abilities so get in touch and find out what you can start.  The first step is the hardest, but it’s oh so worth it

“From personal experience, getting out and doing some exercise can really improve your mood and help you through the craziness which ensues when a newborn baby arrives!”

My Story

My name’s Becca and I live in Sale, Cheshire and I’m a Mum (and wife!) with 2 kids. I became a personal trainer to help Mums get back to fitness after having their little ones. After going through my very own battle back to fitness after having both babies, my aim is to now help others Mum’s with their journey.

I put on a LOT of weight with both babies – can’t really tell you why (cake had a little to do with it) It was no walk in the park (literally). A little part of it was down to my personal determination, but primarily it was the way I did it.

12 weeks after having my daughter, I joined a fitness class and this was the start of my journey. I took me 9 months but I finally got to my pre-pregnancy weight and fitted back into my jeans and I was hooked with the exercise bug! I have even learned to love running (it took a while…) but it’s now one of my favourite things – that and drinking wine!! (I’m a huge believer in everything in moderation)

I was made redundant whilst on maternity leave with my 2nd baby and I decided to use it as an opportunity to do something that I love and am really passionate about. I now want to help Mums on their own fitness journeys and meet their own goals and at the same time, give them the opportunity that I had – to be able to meet new people, get some support and get active.

I opened my gym in Sept 2023 after 7 years of being a mobile PT as it was time to take the business to a larger scale as I was fully booked with clients.  Gyms can be horrible places for women, especially if you don’t know what you’re doing so my aim is to alleviate the fear of gyms and make them a fun, engaging place to be so you can be part of a community to spur you on to reach your goals

I opened my Gym studio in September 2023 to enable me to offer weekly small group sessions to women.  With a max of 5 people per group, these sessions are an awesome way of introducing the benefits of strength and weight training to as many people as possible

Gym’s traditionally aren’t always the most welcoming of places but that is not the case with my gym.  It’s about building a community, building women’s confidence and helping to hit those fitness goals in an encouraging, inviting and fun way.

Via a monthly membership, you get access to 1 or 2 sessions per week to fit your own schedule.  There’s early mornings, lunchtime and early evening slots available so something (hopefully) for everyone.

Prices
My aim is to make training affordable to every budget and I hope my pricing structure reflects this. For each Personal Training client, I will do a detailed goal setting session prior to starting out as there’s no point in training if you don’t know what you want out of it. After working out your goals, I will then design you a tailor made programme which will get you to hit your targets

I also offer group training sessions for max 5 people per session and this starts from £12 per session

The classes are prices at £5.50 per session on a drop in basis

If you want any further information on pricing, please just get in contact and I’d be happy to discuss everything in more detail

I certainly wouldn’t be (nearly) back into my pre-baby wardrobe. If it weren’t for these classes and being able to take my little one along.

Ellie, Mum to Rufus.

I cannot believe that in the last seven days I’ve run 18.13km. KM.I could not have done this without the motivation and support from Becca and the support from all the lovely running group ladies, who make it so much fun.

Last night, in the cold, I ran for 25 minutes straight, and then didn’t drink wine. This is a huge achievement for me! thank you so much Becca, you rock

Nutrition

Since 2018, I have worked in partnership with Debbie Gallimore who is a registered nutritional therapist who has run her own successful business in Sale since 2012.

Together we are extremely passionate about women’s health and weight loss and the mix of embedding the right diet and exercise means our two businesses work in perfect synergy.

We work together to provide nutritional challenges and dietary resets online to groups of women looking to learn sustainable, long term habits to overhaul their diets and teach them how to fuel themselves correctly along side getting active and improving their fitness.  It is an education of what to eat to ensure you can have a healthy, fun and energetic lifestyle.

Please get in touch for more information about the challenges we run

faqs

When can I start?

For my post natal park classes, if you’ve had a natural delivery, you can start exercise from 6 weeks postnatal and if you’ve had a C-Section, it’s 10-12 weeks post. It important that you have had your 6 week check with the GP prior to starting any exercise (or with the Health Visitor if the GP isn’t an option for you) but mum’s can join in at any time you feel ready to start after this up.

For all my other sessions, they’re suitable from 6 months post natally through to any age.

The running club is for all abilities.  The recommendation is to be at least 4 months post natal before returning to running and I recommend being at least 4-6 months due to the 7.15 start time – it’s tough to get out every Monday with a baby younger than 4-6 months (it’s tough when they’re 4 years old sometimes!!)

How do I join?

For the exercises classes in the parks, you need to book online prior to attending. If you are coming for the first time, you will need to fill out a pre-screening questionnaire prior to your first session – here,

For PT or small group training (group or 1:1), please get in touch with me and we can discuss all the different options available to you.

For the running clubs, for beginners, 5k Boost and the 5-10k clubs, they run in fixed time courses so please get in touch for the next start dates.

For 5k Smash, these are also on my booking system.  Advanced is at 8pm and Intermediate is at 8.15pm.  You will need to fill out a pre-screening questionnaire prior to your first session online here.

How much does it cost?

For the face to face classes and the 5k Smash run club, it’s £5.50 per session or £22 for 5 (£4.50 per session) as a class pass

For the online Zoom sessions, it’s just £3.50 per session or you can buy 7 for £22 as a class pass

Prices vary for group and 1:1 personal training – please click here for more information

What if it rains? (we are in Manchester after all!)

We do the workouts come rain or shine – unless the weather man tells us to stay inside or if it’s snowing (no-one’s that keen, surely??!!) so please make sure you come prepared for both yourself and the baby – lightweight waterproofs and pram rain covers are essential. There are areas under tree cover which we can move to which give a little extra protection from the elements

If the weather is too horrible to be outside in with your babies, I will move the into the studio if numbers allow or will move your booking to next week free of charge. 

What to bring?

For the classes, all you need to bring is an exercise mat and bottle of water – especially if you’re breastfeeding as you’re more susceptible to dehydration and then a snack like a banana (wouldn’t advise cake!!) for the way home in case you need an energy boost.

Also, for babies, it might be advisable to bring them a drink and snack to see them through the hour. Their favourite toy could also be handy too to keep them happy!

For the run club, all you need is a bottle of water and in winter, your flashing arm band.  You get given a band on your first session and it’s your responsibility to keep it and wear it every week when it’s dark to keep yourself visible and safe.  I recommend running with your phone for safety and potential emergencies.  A running belt or arm holder is recommended rather than running with your phone in your hand.

What do I need to wear?

  • Trainers – proper footwear is essential. You need trainers which will support and cushion when doing exercise. Good trainers will reduce your injury risk, especially if you’ve not done exercise in a while.
  • Sports Bra – your breasts change so much during and after pregnancy, it is essential that you support them correctly when doing exercise – and this is even more important if you are breastfeeding. It’s advised to feed before doing exercise so you are more “comfortable”!! For more information on good sports bras, I highly recommend the website www.boobydoo.co.uk who offer a fab range including maternity ones.
  • Light layers – we all know how changeable the weather is. It’s best to wear a few light layers so you can easily remove then during the workout
  • Flashing Arm Bands – for winter run club, please wear your flashy’s to keep yourself visible and safe when on the roads
  • Running belt/arm band – to keep your hands free for running but to keep your valuables like car keys and phones safe and on your person

    Summer Picnic Ideas

    By UncategorisedNo Comments

    Anyone else a little bit sick of sandwiches? I’ve pulled together 5 of my favourite picnic ideas to share with you all which are healthy, taste amazing and are simple to make when you’ve got the kids at home:

    1 – Buddha salad bowls – pick and choose your protein, vegies, carb, healthy fat and then top with some seeds and a lush dressing. The salads are basically limitless in your choice as there are so many options. I often just use up stuff from the cupboard for these too – cannellini beans, kidney beans, tuna, etc

    2 – Frittata – this is my fave one but there are soooooo many options here and they taste lovely cold as well as hot. The one I’ve shared is a Joe Wicks one and the mozzarella makes it so lush.

    3 – Rainbow Quinoa – the recipe is for cous cous but I change that for a pack of pre-made quinoa. Credit to Pinch of Nom for this one. Because it serves 4 you can actually make it last for multiple lunches too which is always a dream – I’m all about efficiency!

    4 – Falafal and Hummus Wrap. Such a simple one but literally cover a wrap with a couple of tbsp of hummus, add some salad leaves, tomato, cucumber and any other veg (grated carrot, peppers, etc) and then add 3 ready made falafals. Top with a sprinkle of pomegranate seeds and then a drizzle of pomegranate molasses (love this stuff!!)

    5 – Roasted Pesto Cauliflower. Another extremely simple one. Chop the cauli into pieces, cover in pesto and olive oil and roast for 30-40 mins. I love adding pine nuts and cherry tomatoes to give it a bit extra. This also works well as a side dish for dinner with some poached/roast chicken or a salmon fillet.
