Stronger As A Mother (Postnatal) Athlete Program
You take your training seriously. Postpartum rehab shouldn't be any different. Our Stronger As A Mother Postnatal Program takes a deep dive into our evidence-based fundamental pelvic floor and core techniques, and teaches you how to apply them to your training as well as daily life in our 12-part pelvic floor & core series. Start as early as 1-2 days post vaginal birth or 1 week post c-section birth to optimize your healing potential, start to build a solid foundation of strength early on, and begin to heal from Diastasis Recti and pelvic floor considerations so that nothing stands in your way of achieving your goals as an athlete and as a mother.
