During the in-person sessions at Nike headquarters, trainers engaged directly with GGS curriculum and Molly Galbraith’s presentations.
The Opportunity & Why It Mattered
Nike trainers from around the world flew in for live‑translated sessions, absorbing evidence‑based coaching in women’s health, body image, and fitness during and after pregnancy. Drawing from the GGS’s Pre‑ & Postnatal Coaching Certification curriculum, trainers gained practical, evidence-based skills in women’s health, fitness, and nutrition, and body image education during and after pregnancy.
Molly Talks: Body Image, Pregnancy & Fitness
Molly delivered the same presentation multiple times—breaking groups into language-specific sessions, each with live translators. Trainers then received physical in-person copies of the Girls Gone Strong Pre- & Postnatal Coaching Certification materials.
Her talk focused on how body image affects women’s engagement in prenatal and postnatal fitness—and what Nike trainers can do to support pregnant and postpartum women, encouraging a sustainable return to sport and exercise.
Trainers Get Certified—Now Sporting the GGS Badge
Post-event, Nike’s trainers officially enrolled in the Girls Gone Strong Pre- & Postnatal Coaching Certification. Many graduated and proudly hold Girls Gone Strong credentials today—adding GGS’s stamp of quality and trust to Nike’s global trainer network.
Why This Matters for GGS and Nike
This initiative reinforced Girls Gone Strong’s role as a trusted resource for women-centered fitness coaching education within Nike’s global training ecosystem. By certifying Nike professionals in prenatal and postpartum coaching, we strengthen the industry for pregnant and postpartum women.
What This Means for Athletes & Moms
Pregnant and postpartum women can feel more confident working with Nike trainers who are GGS certified, knowing they’ve received education in evidence-based, women-specific coaching practices.
