I am talking with Dr. Victoria Clement, she is a physical therapist that specializes in pelvic floor, perinatal, and orthopedic/athlete rehab in the Philadelphia area. She has a special place in her heart for patients who are expecting so she went on to complete birth doula training to effectively teach others how to use their body biomechanics to have a better labor and postpartum experience.

We talk about what the pelvic floor is and why it is important and how it impacts you as a runner. We talk about pelvic floor dysfunction and signs to look for when your pelvic floor isn't the best. Why breathing is so important for your pelvic floor and how strength training helps your pelvic floor as a runner.
