THE FIT POSTPARTUM MOM | Core Workouts, Ab Exercises, C-section Recovery, Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy, Diastasis Recti

You just had a baby, and the birth didn’t go as planned. You had a c-section, and life as you know it just got flipped upside down. The pouch, the c-section shelf, is not what you signed up for when you decided to become a mom. Yes, the scar will be there, but does the c-section shelf have to stay forever also? 

In this episode I will be giving you all the details behind why c-section mamas have the pouch and what you can do to get rid of it.

And guess what? You just need to focus on only 2 key factors. Make sure you follow along to hear a quick bonus tip at the end, too!

Keep Smiling,

Jena

Were you once a routine junkie, where you loved all things routines? But now that you are a mom to a little baby, all routines are out the window. It’s so much harder to keep a routine going for the entire day, let alone even for 10 minutes of your day. You once used to wake up, work out, shower, eat breakfast, get ready and go on with your glorious day. But now your mornings are so bent out of shape that you barely get a moment to pee in the morning, and you end up brushing your teeth at 4 pm. 

I totally get it.

Let’s talk about how we can fix that so you can get one simple routine set and in place, and that’s your workout routine.

I know having a workout routine is important to you so I want to help you make this ONE routine a consistent routine in your life when all the other routines fall to the wayside. I want you to feel like you accomplished something important in your life, and if working out is important to you, we are going to get it done. Let’s go!

Oh, and remember...

Keep Smiling,

Jena

Ever wonder if a postpartum belly wrap is worth it? Is it a hoax or do they actually work?

In this episode, Are Postpartum Belly Wraps Worth It? Physical Therapist Tells All, we’re diving into the 4 main reasons why I love Postpartum belly wraps (AKA postpartum girdles and abdominal binders) and why you should too!

Some of the major advantages of postpartum belly wraps that I discuss in this episode include how the wraps give you a physical reminder to do abdominal bracing, how they help your uterus return to normal size, and how they provide abdominal support. I also discuss how postpartum belly wraps assist with good posture, self-confidence, and motivation.

For further information on the best belly wraps check out this article describing the Top 12 Postpartum Belly Wraps On The Market.

If you are like, “YES!”, I want to get a belly wrap right now, then I want to recommend getting yourself a Belly Bandit belly wrap here. These are the #1 ranked belly wraps on the market. I am an affiliate because I love all their products, but especially their belly wraps.

Listen now to this week's episode to hear why I love postpartum belly wraps so much.

Keep Smiling,

Jena

So what are we accomplishing in today’s episode? We are talking about not knowing how to get started with your postpartum workouts. It’s information overload or it’s the opposite, lack of information. You either have tons of different ads and popups coming at you with different workout programs or you feel neglected by your doctors because no one told you want exercises to do postpartum. 

I want to encourage you to focus on one thing. No more scatterbrain or information overload. And no more searching google for postpartum workouts. It’s time to focus on just one... One thing! And I’m talking about the one thing that’s actually going to get you to be where you want to be one year from now as a fit mom.

Yes, I know you have all the mommy and wifey things to focus on but if you are serious about fitness and your health, I want you to focus on one thing when it comes to your postpartum fitness journey. Listen to this episode to find out what it is.

Keep Smiling,

Jena
