When I first opened @annextraining, I had no idea a big inspiration would come years later. As our gym family grew, so did their families. I started seeing babies who were crawling across the turf turn into toddlers copying squats and high fives. Fit parents were raising fit kids, and I wanted to give them something more—something meaningful, fun, and movement-driven right from day one.

So I created it! What started off as a simple poem in my notes, turned into a fun, fit-focused book series.

📚 Little Lifters is for the youngest generation of movers—books that make health, movement, and confidence fun, silly, and smart.

From movement patterns and the ABCs of exercise to anatomy and self-belief—these books are my love letter to the community that raised me, supported me, and grew alongside me. And now … we’re raising the next generation together.

🔤 Little Lifters: Learn the ABCs
A fitness-forward twist on the classic alphabet book! From “A is for Abs” to “Z is for Zottman Curls,” this book teaches young readers movement-based vocabulary while encouraging daily activity. It’s the perfect way to blend early literacy with physical literacy.

🧠 Little Lifters: Learn Anatomy
This book helps kids learn about the incredible parts of their body—from muscles and bones to lungs and the heart. It makes anatomy fun and approachable by showing how each part helps them play, move, and grow strong every day.

💪 Little Lifters: Learn Self-Confidence
This is the heart of the series. Here, kids learn about believing in themselves, trying hard things, and celebrating progress—not perfection. With positive affirmations and empowering messages, it helps young readers grow a strong inner voice to match their strong body.

🤸Little Lifters: Learn Movement
This book introduces foundational movement patterns every child should know—like squatting, lunging, crawling, and jumping. Through fun prompts and playful illustrations, kids explore how their body moves in space, building coordination, strength, and confidence with every page.
