There's a myth going around that lifting weights is dangerous for your pelvic floor.
The truth is, you're essentially lifting every day of your life: your kids, your dog, your latest Costco haul.
And guess what? Your core and pelvic floor are absolutely involved in that conversation as they play essential roles in ANYTHING you lift: whether that be in the gym or in your life.
So why aren't we training those body parts to help us do these things?
In today's episode, we are talking all about how to appropriately challenge your body with weights, how it affects your core and pelvic floor performance (and vice versa), and what to be mindful of during any type of lifting so that you ensure your core and pelvic floor are strong and resilient AF throughout your lifespan.
Healthcare is a difficult territory for women to navigate, as many of us are left feeling dismissed and unheard, our concerns being chalked up to being a "crazy woman" who just needs to lose weight (BARF). That shit ends here and now. Today, we take back our health and speak up: because no one else is gonna do it for us.
