ABOUT

Hello! My name is Annabelle Hayes and I am a Certified Personal Trainer, nutritionist and business owner. I was always athletic growing up by participating in ballet, gymnastics, soccer, basketball, volleyball and track. Whether it was in school or on my personal time, I loved keeping myself physically active but I didn't start weight lifting until 2015 after I graduated high school. I went to college to study graphic design and the gym became my happy place and my form of mental relief. I didn't start weight lifting because I wanted to look a certain way, it was because at the time I was so stressed with college and with my personal life that it became my outlet for anything if I was stressed, depressed, happy, sad, etc. The gym legitimately became my playground that I could spend 2-3 hours just working out.

What motivates me or keeps me going are the results and the fact that i’m inspiring millions of people around the world. Once you see the results it truly becomes an addiction, even if it was little, to me it was still progress. I started growing an immense social media following inspiring individuals around the world to change, improve their everyday health and inspiring women to feel comfortable in their skin no matter their size or age! I began researching more about nutrition and training then eventually realized the passion I had for fitness & health. I decided to get certified so I could share my knowledge and experience with others. Girls on social media started asking me questions about how I was able to transform my body and that’s when I said to myself I wanted to help other people reach their fitness goals. Present day I am continuously learning and working on improving myself both mentally and physically.

January 2019, using my background in graphic design, business, fashion, marketing and my passion for fitness to create a clothing line called Lifted Collection. What you wear to the gym can help you stay motivated, improve your workout performance and feel confident. Lifted Collection is more than just a clothing brand, it stands for excellence, quality and women empowerment. As women we deserve to also feel sexy whiles being beasts in the gym and my clothing is designed to encourage self-confidence and spark drive in women who aren’t afraid to stand out. Now expanding to Lifted Swimwear which is also inspiring women to be confident in their bodies they work so hard for.

I believe that fitness, nutrition, and mental health all work together as one for the achievement of an individual or client. As a personal trainer one of the most important things is helping my clients learn proper form, fitness techniques and how to incorporate exercise into their everyday life. There are so many reasons why people choose to exercise or have an overall healthy lifestyle. Whether you want to improve your sport performance, lose weight, gain weight, build muscle or look and feel better I can help you achieve your goals!
