THE CHANGE YOU DESERVE Our new Health & Fitness Columnist Lauren Green is here to guide you through
Hello and welcome to my first very own column for Style of the City, you may recognise me from The Gratitude Edition, but if not let me introduce myself. My name is Lauren, I am the founder of Empowered Women Fitness. I am a mother, a qualified
personal trainer, a fitness instructor and I am in my third and final year of university studying strength and conditioning. My passion is fitness and my mission is to help as many women as I possibly can to gain strength and confidence through the
power of fitness. March 21st, 2020 (the beginning of lockdown) as the gyms were forced to close, at such a difficult stressful time, I knew that all of my clients and many other women would need uplifting. I went live on Instagram every single day at 10am throughout the whole of lockdown and trained with hundreds of women, these classes were more than just fitness, these classes became a huge support network for many women, throughout such a difficult time. I now train hundreds of women online every Left: Crab walk. Place resistance band above knees, get into squat position, keeping your core tight, your head and chest upright, transfer bodyweight from one side of the body to the other for 15 reps.
Above: Glute Bridge. Resistance band above knee, laying on your back, feet shoulder width apart, driving up weight through your heels, raising your hips up to the ceiling, squeezing your glutes at the top. Complete 15 reps.
