To Birth and Back is now live and available for purchase.
I wanted to take a moment to share the post that the main S.L.A.M. page has created, because I think it does a really good job explaining just what To Birth and Back is.
Pregnancy puts unique demands on our core system. The abdominal wall stretches as baby grows and is possibly cut to retrieve baby during a cesarean delivery. The pelvic floor holds increased weight throughout pregnancy and then stretches as baby makes his/her entrance via vaginal delivery. ALL aspects of the core are affected in ALL pregnancies and deliveries.
Then in the matter of hours, baby is out and the core system has to reconfigure its movement patterns and stability strategies. Stretched out abs need to reconnect with the brain to function properly. The pelvic floor has to resynchronize with the diaphragm during breathing. But what if these things don’t happen?? Possibly poor body mechanics or unbalanced muscle relationships causing pain. Maybe even pelvic floor and core dysfunction.
This course is designed to bridge the gap between birth and fitness. My goal for you is to learn how the body works together, why breathing is so vital for core function and pressure management, and how to optimize your movements to feel good and reduce injury risk as you return to exercise.
Because the premise of this course is reconnecting and rebuilding, it is gentle enough to start implementing the movements as soon as you feel ready after birth. The tasks you perform those first 6-8 weeks after birth (carrying a baby, hauling around the infant seat, bending and squatting to pick up laundry, etc) will be more physically demanding than anything in this course. But this course will make those movements more efficient! And help you reduce the risk of injury and pain by rebuilding your core system as you move through motherhood!
Maybe you are days or weeks postpartum, maybe years. Regardless, reconnecting your core system postpartum is a vital step to optimizing your fitness and feeling great doing it.
Are you a runner or lifter who is accustomed to feeling strong but now feeling like a stranger in your own body with new joint pains or pelvic floor issues postpartum? Do you worry about things like where the closest bathroom is or avoid jumping because you’re afraid you will leak? Or maybe your goal is to get through your day with your new baby without back pain or pelvic floor issues?
