Great workshop this past Saturday at Abundant Rock focusing on connecting to the core and pelvic floor! I love teaching and giving people the tools to identify their own muscle imbalances or mobility restrictions. 🤝🩵

What topic(s) should I cover at future workshops?? Let me know in the comments ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Having trouble getting the lower core to turn on postpartum? You’re not alone. Although the supine lower core brace is a commonly prescribed exercise, sometimes it’s hard to do correctly.

If that’s you, try a standing banded lat pulldown with straight arms. Why I like it:

➡️ standing position: more functional and sometimes an easier position to feel than laying on your back
➡️ less brainwork: I find that the lower abdomen turns on more readily with less conscious effort required
➡️ easily scalable: you can easily make this harder or easier for the level you’re at
➡️ less isolated: unlike the supine brace, this exercise recruits other synergistic muscles along with the core (like the lats)

Remember to use correct form and follow the points of performance (listed in the reel) for the best results. Give it a try and let me know what you think! 🩵💪🏼

Could your pelvic floor be weak? Maybe. Is that the culprit of all your symptoms? Probably not.

Women’s health and pelvic therapy have come so far and, thankfully, we now know there’s so much more that contributes to pelvic floor dysfunction. This is why many women don’t see results from the traditional “pelvic therapy” of kegals & clamshells. This is especially true for clients I work with. Many of them are active runners and functional fitness athletes and very strong at baseline! 💪🏼

For stubborn symptoms, we have to zoom out and look at the body as a system. We need to find the contributing factors and address them. Sometimes this may be focused on the pelvic floor itself. Other situations might warrant treating another involved area to take pressure off the pelvic floor.

The point is, you need someone who is willing and able to look beyond the pelvic floor. Make sure you have a great clinician who assesses the whole system. 🩵

A few early-mid postpartum exercises I’ve been working on to support my recovering pelvis (specifically core + adductors)!

The goal: Build pelvic girdle stability before progressing to standing, jumping, and running exercise.

In every exercise, the focus should be
➡️ tucking the tailbone and maintaining the low back pressed into the floor
➡️ continuing to breathe 360 degrees into the ribs and abdomen
➡️ staying controlled

Give them a try! And remember every woman’s recovery process is unique. Reach out for an evaluation and program tailored to you 🩵
