Hellooo- I’m Alene (Aye-lean) Kennedy and welcome to my page! I’m an ACE Certified Personal Trainer. I grew up loving sports (field hockey and track in high school), but like many people today, I was self-conscious, actively trying to lose weight in a society that tells us our body is wrong. This started as early as 7th grade- attempting fad diets and exercising not because I wanted to, but because I had those extra cookies (god forbid). When I became a college student, I didn’t know how to train without sports. I was trying to do cardio and circuits 6-7 days a week, dragging myself to the gym, and beating myself up when I didn’t go. It was miserable and taxing.
I started lifting weights the second semester my freshman year of college- and I quickly fell in love. It was empowering to strive to be strong, not skinny. To eat food that fuels my body and have exercise as something I loved, not punishment. Lifting allowed me to give my body and mind the love I had been lacking for so long. Our bodies are amazing- giving us homes, swimming in oceans, spending time with loved ones. I want to empower others to learn and appreciate the strength and beauty of their own body.
