My client Janis needed new workout shoes. My other client Mona found out, and surprised her with a new pair of shoes just before class 😍😢❤👏 Mona has lost 130 lbs. Janis has lost over 90 lbs. And the support they show each other is part of what's helped them get this far. When we support each other, we go further, together! 💯 ---------------------------------------------------- #RealTalk #weightloss #goals #noexcuses #diet #training #support #friendship #girlpower #strongwomen #girlfriend #girlfriends #love #hope #journey #friends #friendship #happy #healthy #fitness #fit #blessed #woman #RealTalkWeightloss

My client Robin has been struggling with neurological, balance, nerve, hearing and sight issues for the past 15 years. Recently, she's been coming in more consistently and working harder than ever, and it is SO INCREDIBLY INSPIRING! 💛 💛 She told me that today was her "best session yet", and I've been working with her for over 12 years... my heart is full. ❤ I hope Robin inspires you today as much as she inspires me...💪💪 ---------------------------------------------------- #personaltrainer #nevergiveup #noexcuses #inspiration #motivation #motivational #goals #transformation #transformationtuesday #balance #instafit #fit #fitness #heart #beauty #beautiful #blessed #fight #fighter #walk #hope #california #bayarea #sanjose #trainerlauraswain

My client Nicole talks about the day she got diagnosed with #diabetes in 2002. She started training w me in 2016. It took 14 years before she was really ready. Weightloss is an incredibly individualized and very personal journey. And each transformation begins from the inside out... ---------------------------------------------------- #realtalk #behindthescenes #truth #client #story #stories #transformationtuesday #transformation #weightloss #weightlossjourney #diet #personaltrainer #goals #fitnessmotivation #lifestyle #fitness #fit #instastory #instafit #instagood #fat #growth #brave #humaninterest #california #bayarea #sanjose #trainerlauraswain

Another " Real Talk" w/ my client Nicole. The topic? Weight loss plateaus and why past diet programs didn't work. Her WILLINGNESS to be honest w/ herself and me is a HUGE part of the reason she lost 130 lbs! ---------------------------------------------------- #personaltrainer #realtalk #truth #honesty #weightloss #goals #noexcuses #diet #exercise #weightlossjourney #weightlosstransformation #transformation #instagood #instafitness #fit #instafit #fitness #brave #strong #woman #women #strength #thursday #motivation #inspiration #california #bayarea #sanjose #trainerlauraswain

Great way to work your lats/triceps/upper back/core and improve shoulder stability all at once! 😊 ️ Keep your hips square, your abs tight, your upper back engaged (flat not rounded) and do your best not to shrug your shoulders. I ❤️ how simple yet effective this exercise is!
