#11: SLAM or Sweat Like a Mother (or Father)


Listen Later

I start this one briefly talking about (3:15) Yoga for injury prevention and the need for flexibility, in fitness and faith. The guest for this episode of the podcast - which I hope you'll subscribe to - is Stroller Strong Moms owner and instructor Rebecca Paul!
(5:55) We start our interview talking about what this mom of 3 does at home and work, staying physically fit and giving it to God. (8:55) Then, Rebecca gives us a breakdown of Stroller Strong Moms, where she and many other moms of all ages SLAM (sweat like a mother) in Columbus GA, 1 of 34 locations around the USA, including many military towns. How tough is it to be a mom? She tells it like it is.
(11:50) This SLAM boss also has a message for women and men who feel intimidated by working out and maybe don't think they have the time. (13:15) Her journey of running started with months of tears and difficulty breathing. She also describes how fitness has impacted her marriage.
How can exercise and professional help get you through anxiety and depression? (19:00) Rebecca knows first-hand and is passionate about mental health.
The now avid runner (22:10) chats with me about looking to God for strength in the midst of panic attacks, finding mantras while running a marathon, (25:25) strength training for injury prevention, (27:45) and losing weight the right way. Can scales be dangerous?
We close our conversation with Rebecca talking about goals and (30:07) being a mom of 3 kids (ages 2-13), including one of her daughters switching the famous Frozen song from "Let It Go" to instead sing "Go Away." (36:00) I also do some shout-outs of some testimonials from some stroller strong moms.
