Kate is a personal trainer with Pointe Fitness. She is a certified strength and conditioning specialist, who is passionate about working with women and young athletes.

During the WMBW Summit, Kate taught us how to track our nutrition, which app is her favorite for doing so, and which numbers we should pay attention to. I bet I wasn’t the only person who was surprised when she said, “If you don’t eat enough, you won’t lose weight, because your body is going to store what you eat.”

She also talked about why strength training is important for women and taught us how to get started. Kate said it doesn’t matter whether we commit ourselves to working out at a gym or at home, as long as we commit ourselves.

However, between going to law school, being a single mom, and owning my own business, there wasn’t a lot of time for me to work out. After having my second daughter at the age of 31, I decided to make my health a priority again. I gained a lot of weight during both pregnancies so I started seeing a nutritionist, who recommended I start running. Running? I’d never ran before. But I laced up my tennis shoes, and off I went. And I haven’t looked back since. Before a long day at work I would put the girls in their stroller and hit the pavement. Their cheers of “Run, Mommy, run!” still resonate in my brain. That was my time. My “happy hour” if you will. Soon after picking up running I added strength training. And that routine remained for many years, until a couple of years ago when I hurt my back. At that time I decided to switch up my routine a bit. I now also incorporate group classes including spinning, Pure Barre, and yoga to help take the stress off of my lower back. I work out five days a week either in the gym, at home, or at a local studio. I still run, but not as much. And I still strength train with a trainer three days a week.

Since regaining my love for exercise I have accomplished many of my fitness goals. I have run 3 half marathons and countless 5 and 10K’s. But my biggest challenge when it comes to health and fitness is finding that balance between eating right and exercising. It’s easy to get in a one hour workout, but controlling what goes into your mouth for those other 23 hours can sometimes be a challenge.

Now a days I use fitness as a tool to keep my body and my mind strong. The endorphins I get from exercise are the best form of stress relief money can buy. Meditation has also helped me along in my fitness journey, I try and set aside time each day to mediate. I’ve found that leading a healthy lifestyle has made my world a better place.
