This group of exercises is great to rehab your core muscles after pregnancy and to engage your deep core muscles/pelvic floor💪 These exercises progress in level of difficulty- adjustments with moving your limbs away from your body, gravity and adding resistance all help to gradually increase your core strength.
You can add these into your next workout or do as a circuit for 30 seconds each for 2-3 rounds. These are diastasis recti safe and a great option for pregnancy as long as you are not experiencing dizziness laying on your back!
Pay attention to how you’re feeling- signs you aren’t ready for the exercise:
1. Coning or bulging of your stomach
2. Pain
3. Incontinence

Rise and shine with these breakfast burritos that are perfect for busy mornings🍳Your taste buds and schedule will thank you! SAVE for breakfast inspo to make your mornings a little easier!
I prepped these along with breakfast sandwiches before I had Mila to have on hand during the early postpartum days! It was so helpful to have something nourishing and quick for breakfast meal prepped🙌
Ingredients:
- 2-3 cooked diced potatoes, 2 bell pepper, 1/2 onion (hack to make easier: Trader Joes frozen roasted potatoes with peppers/onions)
- low fat shredded cheddar cheese
- flour tortillas
- 6 eggs mixed with 1 cup egg whites for extra protein
- Optional chicken sausage or turkey bacon, or meat of choice
Cook chicken sausage, potatoes and eggs. Layer cheese first so it doesn’t get soggy, wrap individually in foil, let cool completely, and freeze for later! To reheat microwave 1 minute, flip and microwave another minute OR bake at 350 for 10-15 min🌯

Top 3 Kettlebell Core Exercises🔥 These are great exercises for working your whole core, not to mention functional for everyday life. These are pre/postnatal friendly as well for all my mamas out there💛
1️⃣ Hover pass throughs - try to minimize your hips from rotating while passing the kettlebell through. Can start with a hover hold!
2️⃣ Overheads marches- inhale and engage your core while exhaling as you lift your knee up
3️⃣ Farmer carry- focus on having no lateral lean during the walk

I am beyond excited to share the results of my husband Humphrey after training together for 10 weeks!! He followed through week after week and absolutely crushed it💪 Our goal when starting was to increase muscle and lose fat while correcting some muscle imbalances to prevent injuries from some nagging pains from his soccer playing days/surgeries.
We focused on these main things to help him gain muscle and lose 10 lbs in 10 weeks:
- strength training focused on progressive overload 5x/week with cardio 2x/week
- created balanced meals and inventory of portions
- protein and water goal
- started taking creatine + electrolytes daily
His progress is incredible and he’s just getting started🙌 Proud of you!!
