Original caption
Postpartum core recovery isn’t about doing “gentle” exercises forever. Yes, we start by rebuilding the basics—breathing, pelvic floor + deep core coordination, alignment and pressure management. But that’s the starting point, not the finish line. Your core needs to eventually be able to manage real load again. Lifting heavier weights. Running. Jumping. Carrying your kids. Moving quickly. Producing force AND absorbing it. Because the goal isn’t to spend the rest of your life protecting your core. It’s to progressively build its capacity so it can handle everything you want your body to do. Rehab → rebuild → progressively challenge. That’s postpartum core recovery.❤️🩹 #abrehab #natalapp
