What are the best pelvic floor exercises to keep your muscles strong and healthy(especially during & after pregnancy!)…NOT KEGELS?!🤷‍♀️⬇️

Answer: Functional exercises like lateral step downs to help engage your TA muscle, pelvic floor muscles, and posterior chain for stronger glutes and pelvic floor!✅✅✅

Immediately postpartum you may only be able to start with gentle breathing and foundational pelvic floor and core exercises but eventually you want to progress to functional exercise like squatting, deadlifts, step ups/downs, etc✅

One of the best ways to support the pelvic floor is by strengthening the glutes, hip abductors, and deep core muscles which help to stabilize the pelvic floor for pooping, peeing, walking, jumping, squatting, running, coughing, sex, etc.✅✅✅

This exercise is critical for getting in/out of bed and focuses on pelvic floor and deep core stabilization and glute med strengthening!

It’s WAY BETTER than KEGELS (which can make pelvic floor issues worse!)…And it’s how to treat common issues like diastasis, prolapse, hernia, constipation, etc🔥🔥

I hear too many moms and doctors say, “Don’t do this or that b/c of a diagnosis or just rest” w/o actually referring them to PELVIC FLOOR PT for treatment🤦‍♀️

The most important time to do exercise is when you are injured or pregnant! (You just may have to modify depending on your situation, medical history, post op restrictions, etc)⬇️

That’s why I created The Belly Whisperer Method and my Pregnancy Prep & Postpartum recovery online programs so MAMAS could start healing from home and recovery safely especially for those that don’t have access to pelvic floor PT near them✅

Just because you have a diagnosis, doesn’t mean you will always be injured or having symptoms!🙌

You can HEAL and overcome issues and even eliminate a diagnosis (I see this all the time!)🙌

And trust me, not matter what age you are, WE ALL NEED exercise🙌
