#184: Postpartum Body Recomposition


Listen Later

This episode is not to encourage "bounce back" after having a baby. Shannon discusses sustainable strategies to improve body composition postpartum. Body recomposition is increasing the ratio of lean mass to fat mass. Shannon will discuss how to ease into exercise and start to build muscle postpartum (after your provider approves that you exercise), the considerations if you're breastfeeding, and the basics of nutrition for body recomposition.
