THIS ⬇️ is why you have a Stubborn Belly Pooch

🚨 IT’S NOT “BELLY FAT.” IT’S PRESSURE. 🚨 The amount of body fat you have is NOT the whole story. If you’re managing pressure correctly and actually connecting with your abs, you may start to see your stomach flatten—even if the change is SUPER subtle at first. 👀 But if every exhale sends pressure: ❌ OUT through the front of your abdominal wall ❌ DOWN onto your pelvic floor ❌ WITHOUT your abs properly managing it …it’s no wonder you’re frustrated AF trying to rebuild your core after having a baby. Your midsection is NOT just a bunch of muscles. It’s a beautifully coordinated PRESSURE SYSTEM. 🔥 And WHERE that pressure goes matters. 👇 In the bottom clip, I’m intentionally demonstrating what it looks like to leak a TON of pressure through the abdominal wall and down onto the pelvic floor. Poor pressure management can be associated with: ⚠️ A stubborn lower-belly pooch ⚠️ Leaking ⚠️ Pelvic heaviness or pressure ⚠️ Difficulty improving a diastasis ⚠️ Low-back discomfort ⚠️ Abs that feel completely “checked out” 🎈 One of my favorite tools for making this easier to understand? A BALLOON. It gives you instant feedback on how you’re managing pressure during your exhale. Ask yourself: 👉 Are you pushing pressure OUT through your belly? 👉 Are you bearing DOWN onto your pelvic floor? 👉 Or are you actually engaging your abs from the bottom up and creating that beautiful flattening? Because breathing + pressure management can completely change the way you train your core. You don’t just need MORE ab exercises. You need to teach your body HOW to use the pressure it already creates. 🔥 The women who finally understand this? They get results. 👏 💬 #coreworkout #mommyfit #gym #TheEnlighenment.
