ESSENTIAL MOM MOVEMENT MOBILITY SERIES: Exercise 3️⃣a&b . 🙋🏻‍♀️Moms spend much of the day either in a hip flexed position or bent forward reaching down. . 🙆🏻‍♀️It’s time to open up those hips and safely load the core (a) and posterior chain (b) in one pattern! . 🤷🏻‍♀️Do you have a new pain in your knee or low back that you did not have before pregnancy? Often times it’s rooted in the hips! . 💃Hip mobility feeds core stability. You need it to reintegrate the core and pelvic floor. . Take these patterns up a notch by loading them with a small medicine ball, sandbell or dumbbell! . . . . . #moms4healthusa #groundtostanding #motherhoodmovement #fitness #momhealth #functionalfitness #momfitness #core #hiphealth (at Holly Springs, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrSXqebB5kO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1u2zzkhu9dbx6

ESSENTIAL MOM MOVEMENT MOBILITY CIRCUIT: Exercise 1️⃣ . Here I am performing a ground to standing pattern learned from the @institute_of_motion Platform App! . I am proud to announce my contribution to this amazing tool for pregnancy! . The lizard get up is key for creating and maintaining awesome hip mobility. . Hip decoupling drills like this one are key for great pelvic floor and core health. Tight hips do not allow for proper load transfer and can aggravate pelvic floor disorders and diastasis! . ❤️Perform 5-8 reps per side! Learn more on PLATFORM @institute_of_motion . Stay tuned for exercise 2️⃣ tomorrow! . . . . . #moms4healthusa #womenshealth #hiphealth #groundtostanding #lifefunction #momfitness #reallifefitness #pelvicfloorhealth #diastasisrecti #twinmom #hollyspringsfitness #functionfirst #lifefitness (at Holly Springs, North Carolina)

ESSENTIAL MOM MOVEMENT MOBILITY CIRCUIT: Exercise 1️⃣ . 🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️How many of you are in the phase where you are now changing diapers on the floor or in potty training mode. . Both activities require you to get down into low positions or on and off the floor multiple times per day. . Ground to standing patterns are really awesome ways to train for these life situations. This exercise came from the Platform app from @iomhealth . . By training the pattern in a controlled and focused environment you prepare your body to move better when you are moving subconsciously! . This is good when it comes to injury prevention, pelvic floor health and diastasis recovery!! . Perform 5-8 reps per side. . Stay tuned for the rest of the week to learn the whole circuit!! . 🌟Don’t forget to sign up for my newsletter at moms4health.com!! 🤗❤️ . . . . . . . . #moms4healthusa #iomhealth #groundtostanding #momfitness #postpartumhealth #toddlermom #twinmom #functionalfitness (at Holly Springs, North Carolina)

Ground to standing for life function! . Here is my friend and client, Susan who one year ago was laying in a hospital paralyzed in one side of her body from a traumatic brain injury. . Here she is today performing a ground to standing pattern with a triplanar core load on the ground. . Susan is using her hands to move in all three planes of motion which loads her core along with gravity. . Getting up from the ground repeatedly builds confidence. Confidence is motivating! Motivation is encouraging! Encouragement is inspirational! . Susan is my inspiration! . Keep watching to see how we build off this pattern! . . . . . . . #moms4healthusa #groundtostanding #traumaticbraininjury #recovery #functionwins #motivation #personaltrainer #encouragment (at Raleigh, North Carolina)
