Do you want to workout but have no time because you take care of your kids 24/7?šāāļøP.71
Or maybe you donāt have kiddos and still have a hard time getting a workout in (sometimes you need to rest too)! Itās time to do some āpelvic floor snacksā!šā¬ļø
This is one of my FAV exercises for everyone but especially during and after pregnancy to help protect your pelvic floor and core!ā¬ļøā¬ļøā¬ļø
If you are someone that has NO time to workout or a busy schedule then donāt worry you arenāt alone! Best MOM HACK I have discovered for this issue is working out with your kiddos and doing EXERCISE SNACKS! (Obviously the more you have the harder it gets so if you only have one like me then take advantage of it baby!)š¤£
There are a variety of factors that you just canāt control during pregnancy, labor, and postpartumā¦(like an emergency c-section)
So it is important to focus on all the things you can control like EXERCISE! Itās important to prepare mentally, and physically for whatever comes your way. Thatās why I recommend patients see or talk with a pelvic floor PT at least once during pregnancy and again postpartum!
Iām 7 months postpartum w/ my second now doing the SAME exercises I used to keep me healthy and protect my belly and pelvic floor before and after my first pregnancy!ā¬ļø
Yes, I have been doing breathing, core, & stretching for my belly and pelvic floor everyday even if some days I only have 5-10 min!š
Try fire hydrants against the wall with a ring (or ball or folded pillow) for 10-12 reps x 1-3 sets ea side!š„
