Some of our programs do not require equipment (Lying In, BIRTHIFT Basics: Prenatal and Postpartum, Return to Running), but all of our other training programs require at least a set of dumbbells or one kettlebell, a resistance band, and a box or step of some sort. A full gym setup is ideal, but we share variations for all equipment levels.

This is very program dependent, but our Lying In and BIRTHFIT Basics: Prenatal and Postpartum programs take approximately 15-30 minutes each day. All other programs take approximately 30-75 minutes. We always recommend looking at your workout in advance, checking out the videos, and going to your workout knowing ahead of time what you are doing.

Our programs are all written workouts with a video to accompany each movement. This allows us space to always evolve our programs with the new knowledge we gain around training women and gives us the ability to share variations on all movements. We do not have any follow-along video formatted programs.

It is always a good time to start moving your body and training for birth. Our programs are progressional so they work you through your trimesters and have adjustments for all fitness levels.

Our programs can be done in tandem with other programs, BUT they are designed to be stand alone programs. If you decide to continue with your current training, you can find a program we offer to add to the beginning of your workouts to prepare your body for that day’s workout or at the end to reconnect and down regulate.
