Rise Fitness Podcast

Prenatal and Postpartum Fitness

Gillian da Silva and Angie Sherk Season 1 Episode 13

In this episode we chat with Lindsay Goats, owner of The Wellness Barn and Fitness, Prenatal and Postpartum Athletics Specialist, about the unique fitness needs of women during and after pregnancy, specifically pertaining to pelvic floor health.  We chat about pelvic floor weakness, diastasis recti, and what all that means for moms returning to fitness after delivery.  Is surgery the only answer, or are there exercises and training methods that can remedy the symptoms that many moms experience after giving birth?  Find out the do’s and don’ts of pre-natal and postpartum training.  Even if you had your last baby years ago, this episode is for you, because as the saying goes, “once postpartum, always postpartum”!
