By Ange Drake

Meet Brittany.

Starting at just 9 weeks postpartum with her second son, Brittany joined 23W looking to rebuild strength and establish healthy habits. Through consistency and support from the MOM program, she achieved impressive changes in body composition and confidence.

Her journey highlights how small consistent actions create meaningful change, even in busy seasons of life.

How long have you been working with 23W?

4 months

What got you started on this journey?

I started at 9 weeks postpartum with my second son, wanting to get strong again!

What was your biggest challenge(s) at the start?

Finding the routine of regular exercise with two young kids! It was the main reason I signed up to the 6 week challenge, to help me create healthy habits.

What was your goal?

Mainly just regular exercise – two strong sessions a week in the MOM classes plus daily walks and Pilates at home

What result did you achieve?

Gained 2.4kg muscle and lost 1.4kg body fat across the 6 weeks!

How have you changed?

More awareness around snacking and higher protein, mindfulness around eating, and regular exercise and routine have done wonders for me as a person and a mum!

What were your biggest challenges going though the process?

Trying to get anywhere on time with two kids! I’m so thankful for these classes and Jenny for allowing me to re-establish my exercise routine and habits.

What were your learnings?

That it doesn’t have to be perfect! And that some movement in your day is better than nothing – even 10 minutes will change your mindset and get some endorphins going.

How would you describe your journey?

Ongoing! I’m setting myself some goals of lifts I want to achieve now that the basics of movements are feeling great, and I’m excited to keep progressing!

What was it like working with the 23W and the other members in the community?

Amazing! I am so so grateful to have been recommended 23W by two dear friends as it’s been amazing getting to gym with Charlie being looked after by Jenny (she is incredible!)

What is next for you?

To keep going! Keep going with the good habits formed from the challenge and see how I can push my body to keep building strength.
