Active Mothers Podcast

This episode was recorded back in May, where I had the pleasure to chat with a physical exercise expert. Dr. Greg Whyte. 

Greg is the foremost authority on Exercise Physiology and Sports and Exercise Performance in the UK. An internationally recognised expert in the field, Greg has extensive professional experience assessing, treating, and improving the performance of patients, sporting enthusiasts, and athletes ranging from cancer sufferers to celebrities attempting their first mountain summit to Gold medal seeking Olympians.

Greg is well-known for his involvement in Comic Relief, since 2006 Greg has applied his sports science work to assist various celebrities in completing some of the toughest challenges. Greg has trained, motivated and successfully coached 23 Sport & Comic Relief Challenges.

And the main reason I asked him to come on the show is that he is very involved in pregnancy, having released his latest book called 'Bump it Up'. A guide to what, when, and how much you should exercise in pregnancy. Which we will get into in more detail.

He describes himself, a Professor of Sport & Exercise Sci Physical activity specialist, Author, Writer, Broadcaster, Public Speaker, Ultra-endurance nutter!

I hope you enjoy listening

Hi everyone and welcome back to the active mother's podcast. It has been a long time since I’ve edited an episode. But I thought I could leave you with my last two conversations from when I was still pregnant back in May. 

Life is now very different and busier than before. But I'm hoping to bring more amazing guests once this motherhood life settles into some kind of routine. So back in May, I had the pleasure to speak to Claire, the founder, and host of the hypnobirthing podcast. 

And in this episode, we chat about her own motherhood experience and how hypnobirthing became part of her life.

If you haven't listened to the hypnobirthing Podcast go and do it! It's packed with lots of useful information.

I hope you enjoy listening

Hi everyone and welcome back to another episode of the active mother's podcast with me lana Farinha.

In today’s episode, I’ve invited Kaely, an Integrative & Functional Medicine Dietitian in Southern California with a passion for making health and nutrition information a little easier for you to understand and put to use in your already busy lives.
 
I asked her if we could concentrate on one single topic. So today Kaely will chat about hydration, how to hydrate the right way, and why staying hydrated is so important for our bodies, not only when we exercise but also on a daily basis. 

I hope you enjoy listening.

Hi everyone and welcome back to another episode of the running through pregnancy series of active mothers podcast. 

Running is one of my passions and I know how difficult it is to stop running when it’s needed. But I was curious to know how some mums did carry on running throughout their pregnancies. And by chatting with them it just shows how different we all are from each other. And that we shouldn't compare our journeys to other mums, but rather be inspired and carry on listening to our bodies and take this journey one day at a time.

Today we chatted with Nikki, a very active running mum.  She was 37 weeks pregnant when we had this conversation. She managed to run throughout this pregnancy together with her running buddies. She tells us how she felt in her previous pregnancies and how that compared to the current one. I hope you enjoy listening.  

Thank you for listening
