Kegels & Crunches Myth (Try This Instead!) #homeworkout #mom #doctor #health #kegel #pregnancy #fyp



Do you want to workout but have no time because you take care of your kids 24/7?šŸ™‹ā€ā™€ļøP.124

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

AND STOP the KEGELS & CRUNCHES…AND START the functional exercise! Functional exercise at the edge of my kids bath tub has been a game changer for me!šŸ’Ŗā¬‡ļø

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 12 months post VBAC with my second 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
