About Amy

I'm Coach Amy! I'm an NCCP Club Coach (Endurance) and strength coach. I am also a competitive middle-distance athlete with a multi-sport background and a parent of two young kids, which is to say that I know how to cross-train and how to fit training in around a busy schedule! My coaching experience ranges from young athletes in club Junior Development programs and student-athletes at local high schools to masters athletes with multi-sport backgrounds chasing 10K PBs. I am also a volunteer mentor with the Girls Forward Foundation, empowering girls across Canada through participation in the sports they love. One of my emphases when working with developing and competitive athletes is athlete education around fuelling training properly and recovering well to sidestep RED-S, and I have fantastic resources and a dietician that I can refer to for local athletes who want expert nutritional support. As a "parent-athlete" myself, I also really enjoy working with pregnant and postpartum athletes and combine my expertise in running and strength training to support active pregnancies and a full, healthy return to sport postpartum. My lived experience informs my niche expertise in scheduling training around the time constraints of having young children, and I have excellent physiotherapists I can refer local athletes to for highly specialized support in the pre- and postpartum period. Whether you're brand new to running or you're coming back after a break, I'm excited to get to know your unique sport history, training availability, and resources, and your short- and long-term running goals. The training plan I create is built for and adapts to you, and I'll cheer you on every step of the way.

Description

We will work together to help your body heal and recover postpartum and transition smoothly back to full sport participation. This begins with gentle walking and reconnecting with your pelvic floor muscles and includes conversations about maintaining good posture while nursing/feeding, babywearing, and pushing a stroller + moving baby/ies around in car seats. We will gradually include more bodyweight strength, and once you are physically, (medically), and mentally ready to return to a higher intensity of activit,y we will integrate running, cross training, and strength work with resistance. I am ready to support you with tips for training while little(s) is/are sleeping, incorporating them into training, and adjusting training based on how you feel as you navigate your unique postpartum journey. You can check in with me at any point via text, email, or VDOT, and we can have frequent phone or video calls for wraparound coaching support. This plan is appropriate for both new parent-athletes and seasoned pros who are welcoming another new little one into their family.

Minimum Requirements

We need to have had an initial consultation call first. Athletes who would like to progress from pelvic floor and postural strength exercises to returning to running and heavier lifting will need medical clearance from their primary care physician.
