Personalised Training for Pregnant Mums: Training Reviews From The Couple Kayla and Mitch

Personalised training for pregnant mums can be the key to safely navigating motherhood while reclaiming your overall health. When it comes to balancing family life, relationships, and health, it is easy to let fitness slip down the priority list. For Gold Coast couple Kayla and Mitch, years of putting other things first eventually took a toll.

In a recent catch-up with the couple, they shared a raw and honest review of their journey back to fitness at Prestige Personalised Training. Their story highlights the power of training as a couple and the incredible physical and mental benefits of finding the right personalised training for women during pregnancy with the help of our expert in-house trainer, Angelo Vilson.

TL;DR: After falling into bad dietary habits, husband and wife duo Mitch and Kayla decided to prioritise their health together. Through structured workouts and tailored fitness plans, Kayla has experienced vastly improved mobility in her third pregnancy, while both have noticed massive boosts in their mood, sleep, and relationship.

Breaking the Cycle of “Cookies and Tea”

Like many busy couples, Kayla and Mitch found themselves falling into comfortable but unhelpful habits. When asked about their diet before starting, the response was relatable: “Chocolate, cookies, biscuits, and tea. You want me to keep going?”

Mitch was starting to feel overweight, and they both knew it was time for a change. Over their eight years together, their fitness levels had fluctuated, but they recognised that whenever they committed to working out, it became a shared activity that strengthened their bond. They decided it was time to get fit, active, and reclaim their routines—together.

The Game-Changer: Personalised Training for Pregnant Mums

For Kayla, this fitness journey came with a beautiful but challenging complication: she is currently pregnant with her third child.

Many mums feel that pregnancy means they have to stop training entirely, but Kayla’s experience proves the exact opposite. By leaning into tailored training for women during her pregnancy, she has found this third experience to be significantly easier than her first two.

Here is a quick look at how tailored coaching has shifted her pregnancy experience:

Experience Focus	Previous Pregnancies	Current Pregnancy at PrestigePT
Mobility	Struggled with general movement and mobility	Highly active, mobile, and feeling strong
Exercise Structure	Unstructured or avoided training entirely	Exercises safely modified by a coach as her bump grows
Physical Strain	Felt a heavy, exhausting toll on her body	Feels a positive difference in her physical capabilities

“Mobility is a huge thing,” Kayla notes. “With my last two pregnancies, I struggled a little bit. With this one, I’m a lot more active and I can feel it in my body.”

She credits her coach for actively adapting her programme. Instead of feeling restricted by what she can’t do, her trainer simply modifies her exercises to safely accommodate her growing bump, ensuring she keeps moving without risk.

The Mental and Physical Benefits of Postnatal & Prenatal Care

While the physical changes are fantastic, both Mitch and Kayla emphasise that the mental and emotional benefits are what keep them coming back to our private gym tailored training for women.

Better Mood Regulation: Kayla notes that getting a workout in allows her to process stress effectively. “Once I come here and then I go home, I can regulate my mood a lot better, which is great.”
Stress Relief and Sleep: Escaping the house to move her body serves as a powerful release valve for the pressures of daily life, resulting in much better sleep quality.
Routine and Consistency: For Mitch, getting back into the gym has improved his overall daily structure. “Keeping active… helps with just overall routine and stuff.”

Kayla and Mitch’s Advice for Busy Parents

It is completely normal for parents, especially expectant mums, to feel overwhelmed by the idea of starting a fitness regimen. Kayla’s advice is incredibly grounded: do not put too much pressure on yourself.

“My advice would be just to stay moving and mobile. I think that’s the most important thing. I don’t put too many high expectations on mums. Just keep mobile.”

Mitch echoes this straightforward, no-nonsense approach to getting started: “Just give it a crack. It’s really rewarding. It can be hard at times, but can also be very fun.”
