You don’t have to “just wait it out” 🕒

Your TRUE core is a system.

➕ diaphragm (top)
➕ pelvic floor (bottom)
➕ abdominals (front)
➕ and back muscles (rear)

Together, they form your core canister, managing pressure and stabilizing your body.

When that system works well, you move with strength and control. But when it’s out of sync, symptoms can show up:

➡️ Under-engaged core? Pressure shifts down or back. You might leak urine or get lower back pain because your back muscles are taking on too much load.

➡️ Over-bracing or bearing down? That pressure goes straight to your pelvic floor and that can lead to heaviness, prolapse, or leaking too.

✅ The solution? Understanding how your breath, core engagement, and pelvic floor work together. It’s not about “sucking in” or “tightening”. It’s about managing pressure efficiently.

Want to move, lift, and train without symptoms? Learn to train your canister, not just your abs.

Are you only doing bird dogs for core strength?

Bird dogs are one of the most common core exercises given during pregnancy. And while they can be a helpful starting point, they should not be your only core work!

Let me put it this way 👇

Doing only bird dogs to train your core is like doing only wall sits and calling it a leg day. Sure, it’s a challenge, but it’s static. It’s missing a key piece 👉 it doesn’t prepare you for real-life movement.

Your core is meant to bend, twist, stabilize, and adapt. Think about:

🚗 Putting a car seat in the back seat.
🥦 Carrying groceries while holding your toddler.
🩳 Picking up laundry from the floor.

Core training during pregnancy should reflect how your body moves in the real world. Safely, progressively, and dynamically. If your program skips that… it’s time to rethink your training.

💡 If this made you pause, share it with a friend who’s still doing bird dogs on repeat. Let’s train smart, not just safe!

If you’re planning to get back to the gym but your rehab never left the treatment table, something’s missing!

Your pelvic floor is made of muscles. And muscles respond to load. This means strength training isn’t something you get back to after rehab, it’s part of rehab 🤝

If your only rehab exercises were lying down, breathing, or gentle squeezes, but your goal is to lift, run, or train hard again… it’s not surprising if your symptoms keep coming back.

👉 Pelvic floor rehab needs to progressively load the pelvic floor in ways that match your goals. That includes lifting weights, moving dynamically, and yes 👀 being back in the gym.

You CAN train hard again. And your pelvic floor can support you when it’s been properly rehabbed to do so.

Struggling with urine leaks despite trying different solutions? 🤔

Here's exactly how I help clients overcome their leaks:

1️⃣ Identify the type of leaks from the history taking.
2️⃣ Pinpoint the root cause, whether it's a muscle weakness, tension, or coordination issue.
3️⃣ Once we have the full picture, we can prescribe the right exercises (not just kegels) to get you back to doing what you love!

🙅‍♀️ Don’t let leaks stop you from living your best life.

While it’s true that your body might need some adjustments, prolapse doesn’t mean the end of your weightlifting journey.

Lifting can actually support your pelvic health when done with proper technique, breath control, and progressive overload.

It’s not about avoiding the gym; it’s about learning how to lift in a way that supports and strengthens your pelvic floor. Here’s 3 tips on how to do so:

1️⃣ Learn how to properly brace and be mindful of what’s happening at the level of your pelvic floor.
2️⃣ Adjust your weights and reps. Less weights = less strain = less pressure.
3️⃣ Use an exhale breathing strategy to reduce pressure (just like with a pressure cooker!)

Every body is different, and with the right plan, you can 100% lift with confidence and be symptoms-free.

Not sure where to start? Let’s build your strategy together because strength training isn’t off the table, it’s just about working with the right strategies for you!

Diastasis recti happens to EVERYONE during pregnancy. Yes, you read that right. It’s a *normal* part of how your body makes space for your growing baby. 🤰

But here’s where things get nuanced: the amount of stretch varies from person to person, and how your core is able to function is what really matters.

Your core is designed to adapt, and with the right strategies during pregnancy and postpartum, it can 100% recover.
