Core Restore - Level 1
For Recently Postpartum Mamas
Available spots
Service Description
Level 1 Core Restore is ideal for newly postpartum mamas (6+ weeks) or mamas needing to start at a very beginner level who have engaged in little to no exercise in over a month. This course will include the first three weeks of a longer 10-week program. There will be two live courses per week. One with Valerie Rucker-Bussie, a Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist. The second course will be with Marita Gumbs, Fitness Trainer/Medical Exercise Specialist/Pre and Postnatal Fitness Trainer. Additionally, participants will receive additional workout routines to do on their own. The core restore program will focus on rebuilding the core that has changed through the process of pregnancy and delivery. C-sections, diastasis recti and pelvic floor issues will all be taken into consideration. We will work on stabilizing, engaging and strengthening the core through movements that isolate the core and movements that integrate the entire body. The core will be the focus while also strengthening the muscles that support the core and muscles that may have been weakened or compromised through pregnancy and caring for your new child. The goal will be to give you the restorative strength and stability you need to move into more intense exercise at 16+ weeks postpartum. NOTE: All classes will be recorded and available for playback for participants. Recommended Equipment: Resistance Bands with Handles and Door Anchor (most sets come with an anchor) Brand Suggestion: https://a.co/d/gl7Y60W Versa/Mini Loop Bands - Note that while the thick fabric bands may be more comfortable, they may also be too heavy for some exercises.
