Such a great reminder to breathe deep down in your core.

Your guidance is really helpful, thanks for this ❤️

Marta

This exercise is harder then lifting, but is so good learning to bread and feel your muscles.

I really enjoyed the fundamentals of this workout. I learned so much!

Michelle

ESSENTIAL breathing exercises to help you engage your deep core and pelvic floor. 
Learning these techniques will:
1. increase blood flow to your stomach and pelvic region for quicker healing
2. close the gap in your abs that happens in all pregnancies
3. strengthen and heal your deep core for function and aesthetics

FUNDAMENTAL breathing core work. 
Inhale, expanding rib cage in all directions 
Exhale, collapsing rib cage together wrapping side ab muscles to belly button and pulling belly button to spin

360 breath

Inhale relaxing pelvic floor and belly. 
Exhale, pulling all 4 points of pelvic floor up and together. 
Inhale to relax and release

Pelvic Floor Activations

Put 360 breathing and pelvic floor movements together. 
Breathe in expanding rib cage front, sides, back, and relaxing pelvic floor 
Breathe out pulling rib cage together and all four points of pelvic floor lift and draw in

Pelvic floor Activation + 360 breath

Pelvic floor + breath

C-Section healing with Dr Meghan Krill, Pelvic Health PT

This intro video is getting me excited to get started!

I trained since my second trimester of  pregnancy with the app, I felt strong, full of energy and confident that my baby was not in danger.
A week ago I gave birth and today after a few days my abdomen is strong with no residual skin and I am excited to continue with the postpartum plan.
This is an investment I would suggest to every pregnant woman as training with Michelle is professional training with guaranteed results and safety.

First workout since giving birth 💪 I feel great and am looking forward to build more on these fundamentals 😊

First legit “workout” 5 weeks PP and that was perfect! I def felt my core working and it was a nice small burn in the glutes.

I loved how intentional the rest is. Slow and steady movements that I’m feeling!
