Pelvic floor symptoms don’t automatically mean you need to stop lifting weights 💪
• Research now supports heavier lifting is NOT linked to more pelvic floor or prolapse symptoms.
• Symptoms like leaking, heaviness, or pressure are signs to adjust — not avoid movement.
• Strength training can still be safe and beneficial with the right support ✨
The goal is learning how to:
✨ manage pressure
✨ breathe properly
✨ build strength gradually
✨ work with your body, not against it
That support comes from a Pilates foundation. Learning how to effectively engage your core and pelvic floor, and how to manage increased loads without increasing your symptoms is 🔑.
• Your pelvic floor deserves strategy, not fear 🤍
