Hi friends! I’m so excited for this week’s episode because I’m chatting all about core training with Erica Ziel!
I have to say that this is one of my top three favorite episodes. If you haven’t checked out the podcast yet, please give this one a listen! Erica drops so many knowledge bombs and I think it’s an extremely important topic.
So much of our everyday movement comes from the core! Our core strength and stability can affect our posture, alignment, pelvic floor function, back function, and SO MUCH MORE.
Here are some of the things we chat about:
– The muscles of the core and favorite functional core exercises
– What is fascia?
– Favorite exercises by trimester
– Thoughts on belly binding post-birth
– Tips for building fitness levels back safely after birth
– Diastasis Recti: how to close the gap and restore function
– If you have DR, do you have to modify core exercises forever?
