I live is a very small town in Newfoundland, Canada. No gyms to go to. So, After I had my second child in 08, I wanted to get my body back. I decided to join an online platform, I created a community for myself and worked out at home, for years I did this. The only thing I noticed as I was doing this is my body started hurting, my low back, hips were sore all the time, I done so may programs and mobility to try and help, physiotherapy chiropractor didn’t help. I’ve been feeling like this for the past 10+years, I felt hopeless. Until recently, I purchased Ana’s MLAM glutes, core, and pelvic floor program and stopped lifting weights for a month. Within the first week, I noticed a difference. Then this past week I purchased her challenge program MLAM full body, core, and pelvic floor program. Within the first week, I noticed as I’m lifting my back and hips are working as it should, and I already feel stronger in my core. This program teaches you how to breathe while working out which I’ve never gotten before, I never knew how to manage pressure, it was never taught that after kids you need to work on this. Goes to show after 10+ years of pain and feeling hopeless you can fix the problem, Anna really breaks down everything and teaches you how to engage your core and how it should really be done so you avoid injury. If you’ve just had a baby or your 10 years out from having your baby, you need to do this program!!

This program with Cee has been a game changer for me. Post menopause I have struggled with finding the right way to keep my body strong and my metabolism from the downward spiral. As a physician I know this is often how we women start to unwind health wise and really start to age quickly. I have tried several things on my journey-HIIT workouts, bootcamp, pilates, cardio which I used to love but post menopause exhausts me and didn't seem to help. This program is so elegantly simple but so well thought out to maximize the outcome. Cheryl is such a good trainer who is always educating as to the "why" with evidence based information, always updating in real time using very reliable sources which is so important in a time when it is difficult to sift through all the information that technology makes available. Her nutritional program is simple and easy to follow focusing on real whole foods not some complicated fad program which requires buying a lot of supplements. This is a program designed for women for the long haul to improve strength, function, bone density and longevity and the way we think about aging. Additionally, the community of women is such a positive and, for me, unexpected benefit. So encouraging to see these women from everywhere just like me encouraging one another and getting it done. A+ Cheryl! You're knocking it outta the park! This is my first challenge but I am now signed up for Cee's annual program!

This is my most honest review of my first Summer Strong challenge with Cheryl. I was always skinny and consistent with training throughout my life. However, three years ago, I gained 10 kg (perimenopause). The same weight I had during one of my pregnancies! I did everything—and more—and still, nothing changed. I followed workout programs from two well-known trainers, and nothing. The way I had always eaten no longer worked. I'm a nutrition professor, and even that didn’t help! No diet worked—not even the one heavily promoted by a famous doctor specializing in menopause. Nothing… Still, being used to training 5 times a week, I started the challenge full of doubts: what could I possibly achieve by training just 3 times a week if nothing had changed with 5? Nevertheless, I committed to following Cheryl to the letter. And… the magic happened without me even realizing it. Through her pedagogy, Cheryl made it clear that the key was training to muscle failure. The goal wasn’t to lose weight. The goal wasn’t “next month.” The goal was today: to push every set to failure. Nothing more. And after 6 weeks, where the goal shifted from losing weight to becoming strong, everything changed. Did I lose weight? No. But the mirror shows a completely different image. Fat was burned and muscle was built. The before-and-after photos are the kind I normally wouldn’t believe when I see them on social media. Don’t believe me? Do the challenge and see for yourselves! Give yourself that gift

I have done many fitness programs over the past 13 years, not only general fitness programs, but specific programs for pregnancy, postpartum, diastasis recti, pelvic floor, and more. This is the best experience that I have had by far. When I reached out to Anna, she gave me plenty of information to help me decide on the best option for me. Moving into the actual program, I love the in depth education at the start that gives you the groundwork to understand why you are going to be doing what you are doing. It also leans into how to promote your success within the program by being mindful of your "stack" and alignment throughout day to day life. Within the training through motherhood program, there is a mix of strength training and deep floor and pelvic floor, with different tabs based on where you are at in your journey (pregnancy, postpartum, standard, modified). This makes this being a forever yours program even more valuable. The flow of the workouts are easy to follow, which makes me "keep at my workout" because I don't end up taking longer breaks when the break time is not long enough for me or vice versa. The weekly zoom calls for the challenge program is a big game changer too. Like where else can you get on a live video call with the creator to ask questions in real time? This is on top of the community page where you can get support from Anna and the community of other Moms. Anna's true passion for health and fitness, in addition to her genuine care for the women she works with is truly inspiring. I want to be just like her when I grow up ;) I thank God for the blessing she has been.

I have taken a lot of classes, joined various gyms, all different workout over 5 decades and I’m here to tell you, at this fine age of 67 years strong, Cee has it going on! She knows what women my age need for a healthy body today and for forever! She brings in science with her clear love of the body! And, her organizational structure makes this woman sing! Everything is in one place! No looking over there for a video, or putting your details of a workout in a separate place-it’s all in one place and her community ROCKS! They are so supportive of one another, I’ve even wept tears reading done if the women’s comments—so thoughtful, sincere ahd helpful! And, I waited to see if this was real and I’m here to tell you—it’s all real: Cee is genuine, Clear, helpful, challenging, compassionate and the program is do AWESOME, I just signed up for an entire Year (and my hubby saw how happy I am—he gifted me the year! Amazing!!) I can’t wait to see what I look like in one year! I already feel amazing! Thank you Cee!

Have done a few of Cheryl’s challenges now. Found her on YT but soon switched to the very reasonable priced challenges (a fraction of the cost of the gym) on the Solin app. What I love is her straight forward REALLY helpful advice that she shares sometimes multiple times daily. My initial goal was to improve bone strength (parent has osteoporosis) as well as muscle strength and be able to pull myself out the pool and open the pickle jar myself! Both of which I can now do with ease. Thank you Cheryl from this 59yr old for switching my future to one I’m excited about …not dreading xx

Wow! I have been lifting weights consistently in fitness classes and private trainers for over 20 plus years. I am fit for my age 70. But I never saw a tractable visible change like I have in this program. It’s not that I was necessarily doing anything wrong but this program totally changed my approach. I was always asking the question: What is lifting heavy? This program teaches that principle and how to track and see results. My daughter and I joined this challenge together. She is also very fit and exercise has is a very important part of her life. We talk daily about this program and how it has revolutionized our training. P. S. Having a partner is a huge motivator!!

I’m honestly amazed by the results after just one week of this program. My body has completely changed, and I already feel like I’m getting back to my pre-pregnancy body. It’s incredible what the right exercises combined with 360° breathing can do. One of the biggest changes for me is that I no longer experience pain during sex, which has made such a difference in my everyday life and confidence. Before my two pregnancies, I did strength training for almost five years, but I eventually found it repetitive and boring. Then I did CrossFit for three years. While I loved the intensity, doing CrossFit four times a week was very high-impact for my body and often left me feeling inflamed. This program feels like the perfect balance between the two: effective, challenging, but also much more mindful of the body. I’m absolutely loving it, and for the first time in a long time, I feel like I’m reconnecting with my body and starting to regain my confidence. The results have been truly incredible! So thank you very much, i'm so grateful about your work! 😍

Hi Ana, I really would like to thank you for your time you dedicated to preparing this whole training and concept. I really did not find anything better. Im suffering more than 20 years from pain of my upper back, shoulders, lower back. I was never a couch potato, always moved a lot, worked in the garden, did yoga, lot of walking. The pain started to be really anoying and disturbing and limiting me from the activities. I thought its the age, invested a lot of money into physiotherapy, trainers with partial improvement. With your IG profile and program I learned and understood that my breathing pattern and connection of the body was completely wrong so I started to work and follow your guidance. And the pain started to dissapear. It did not happen from one day to another, it took a few weeks to wake up the muscles, start to feel the body connection and maintain it. But I think Im on the good way as I feel great. No pain, lot of energy, improvimg every day. I bought your program, Im still on the PP exercices, PF routine and GCPF routine as Im a very beginner in exercicing. However I try to breath 360 during the day, during walks, during swimming. Incorporating the 360 breathing and connection of the system into the daily activities is a real game changer. Thank you again for explaining and all the super usefull videos. Please keep up your work and spreading all these education, its very helpful. The explanations are very clear, great examples. By the way Im 50 years old and I really feel better than in my 30 ties. Its a lot of work still but lets see how far can I go 🙂. Sending a lot of patience to everyone, its definetely worth to invest a bit of time to understand how our bodies work. Happy exercising ! Monika.

Only two weeks completed of this challenge and I've already had improvements with leaking. I tried a core program with another instructor and I just wasn't too motivated to stick with it, but between Anna's very real personality, options within the program and the great community, it's easy to want to stick with MLAM.

I started training with Anna’s programs about 4 months ago, I have already completed 2 challenges and i’m starting my third. I am NOT a mom, and not planning to be one for the moment, but her programs called my attention for the core engagement and pelvic core alignment premises. I have been training for more than 10 years, I am 28 years old and never in those years of experience had I encountered a coach whose guidance helped me really improve my posture. By working on my breathing, correcting all of it, breathing through movement in the correct way, has been a complete game changer. Not only does this knowledge impact my performance, endurance and explosiveness but also my mind. Emotionally I feel way more connected to my body, huge shift in mind muscle connection. Most importantly, I feel STRONG AND CAPABLE! I will never be tired of thanking Anna… I even love the idea that when I do become a mother, my body will be the best home to raise healthy humans! <3 I highly encourage you to try one of her challenges and follow her socials, she is truly inspirational! love you Anna <3

This has been a life saver in pregnancy. I find that so many prenatal programs are dumbed down and not challenging enough. Anna's programs are the perfect blend of keeping and building strength through each trimester..including the fourth trimester! Programming is tailored to any woman in any season of life. I am feeling strong and more connected to my core than I ever have in my entire life at 25 weeks pregnant. I have big postpartum goals and I am confident I can reach them with this programming.

I’ve always struggled with body image, and this third pregnancy has been no different. I was discouraged after seeing pictures of other women way more pregnant than I was and way smaller than I was, but within the challenge, Anna had a reminder that it’s not about the number on the scale but about improving dysfunction and feeling strong in your body. This helped me realize that I might not look how the world says I should, but I feel STRONG at 28 weeks pregnant. I also finally understand how to properly breathe as I lift and work my core in a healthy way. I’ve worked out for 15 years, but I never understood these things until Anna explained and demoed them! So grateful for her and every program she creates ❤️

This workout program is 100% what every mama needs! Whatever phase of life you’re in - first time pregnancy, postpartum at any stage, beginning your grandma journey. I love that it incorporates weights and you can progress or back off according to your needs! She walks you through every workout in such a way that the moves feel more natural and helpful rather than confusing and painful. I have tried multiple other workout programs and I’m currently 8.5 months pregnant with my second. The pelvic pain I had before has improved so much and I feel strong in this pregnancy! I notice much more of a difference when I do these workouts and I’ve recommended this program to almost everyone I talk to, it really works wonders! 10/10 great job Anna!

I’ve never felt more empowered! Anna’s program is incredible. When doing an online workout, I was worried I’d have questions, wouldn’t be able to know if I was performing the exercises correctly, etc. I was blown away! Her videos are SO in depth that I never question anything. Her cues are amazing, the way she explains actually clicks with my brain & I can’t believe how much I’ve learned about how much breathing, alignment & technique have to do with strength, repair & gaining muscle. The program blew me away & I’m so excited to see my results. It’s kicking my butt, in the best way possible!

This has been the best program I’ve ever done!!! And I’ve done 5+ programs for pregnancy/postpartum. The education and instruction Anna provides is unmatched! I’ve never felt more connected to my core and feel so much stronger after just a week of the program! Can’t put into words how thankful I am for this resource! Anna is a wealth of knowledge & the cueing for movements is unmatched along with ways to modify movements based on stage of life/strength. In other programs where messaging has felt forced, Anna communicates an appreciation for the body, its design, and what it allows us to do! It’s been so refreshing to be encouraged to be in tune with my body and its limitations, knowing that each movement and exercise is building strength and stewarding my body (even if movements are modified). I genuinely look forward to working out every day and can’t say I’ve felt that way in a long time!
