Best Belly & Pelvic Floor Exercise Snacks (Better Than Kegels!) #doctor #health #mom #fitness #hack



Do you want to workout but have no time because you take care of your kids 24/7?šŸ™‹ā€ā™€ļøP.83

OR maybe you don’t have kiddos and still have a hard time getting a workout in (sometimes you need to rest too)! It’s time to do some ā€œpelvic floor snacksā€!šŸ˜‹ā¬‡ļø

I started doing cardio for 1-5 min vs 30-60 min walking or running and it changed my life (and body composition + strength!)šŸ™Œā¬‡ļø

AND STOP the KEGELS and START the functional exercise! Most people don’t need kegels but stretching + functional exercise instead!🤯

High impact classes, cardio, and lifting are soooo fun (and I can’t lie I miss being able to workout for 1-2 hours) BUT being a full time mom and trying to also run my business gives me limited time to myself so most days it’s 15 min of exercisešŸ˜…

If you are someone that has NO time to workout or a busy schedule then don’t worry you aren’t alone! Best MOM HACK I have discovered for this issue is working out with your kiddos and doing EXERCISE SNACKS! (Obviously the more kids you have the harder it gets so be patient w/ your healing journey!)ā¤ļø

There are a variety of factors that you just can’t control during pregnancy, labor, and postpartum…(like an emergency c-section)ā¬‡ļø

So it is important to focus on all the things you can control like EXERCISE! It’s important to prepare mentally, and physically for whatever comes your way. That’s why I recommend patients see or talk with a pelvic floor PT at least once during pregnancy and again pp!

I’m 8 months post VBAC here doing the SAME exercises I used to keep me healthy and protect my belly and pelvic floor before and after my pregnancy!ā¬‡ļø

In video doing alt. lunge jumps 30 sec x 3-6 reps (you can just step back and forth instead too!)
