She is one of the most talented and influential fitness instructors out there. When I found out about VBbrides and then became engaged, I immediately thought that this was a program I wanted to do to help me feel my best on my big day.โฃ โฃ VBbrides changed my way of thinking about fitness and I found a new appreciation of eating foods to fuel my body. Her weekly workouts are calculated to a T and made me push myself out of my comfort zone week after week. Victoria has an amazing way to make each workout better than the next. She calculates her workouts to the beat of the music, encourages you to listen to your body if you need a break, and overall is extremely motivational. Her personal comments during live zoom workouts make you feel inspired and at the end of the day, that is what you need in a trusted fitness coach.โฃ โฃ Before VBbrides, I only took cycling classes and never ventured out of my comfort zone. After 6 months in this program, I now have an appreciation for all types of workouts โ Strength Training, Barre, Sculpting, HIIT, you name it! I feel so much stronger mentally and physically and cannot believe I am doing push ups on straight legs and lifting 20 pound weights.โฃ โฃ Victoria is amazing and so is her program. She is your biggest cheerleader throughout the whole process and I promise will take you to new levels of fitness that you never thought you could reach. I cannot thank Victoria enough for the support she gave me during the 6th month program and afterwards as well. If you dedicate yourself to this program, there is no doubt you will feel and look differently by the end. Best decision i ever made

VBbrides gives you access to a Registered Dietitian to ensure you are fueling your body right as well as access to live and pre-recorded workouts by Victoria herself. This program helped me build a healthy mindset, routine and lifestyle that I plan to continue well past my wedding day. I can honestly say that I am the strongest and most toned I have ever been and owe that completely to VBbrides and all the amazing elements this program has to offer. Victoria not only will give you the tools to help you feel and look your best for your wedding day, but she will also be your biggest cheerleader along the way! @michelleegrace โฃ ๐๐โฃ โฃ ๐ธ- @nicoleellengowan
