When people hear “pelvic floor strength” they pretty much only think “kegels”. This is unfortunate because pelvic floor strength and function can be trained far beyond what kegels are capable of. Don’t get me wrong - kegels are helpful. But here’s what to also consider. —— #pelvicfloor #pelvicfloorexercises #pelvicfloorphysicaltherapy #pelvicfloordysfunction #pelvicfloorhealth #pelvicfloorpt #pelvicfloortherapy

When is the “right” time? In a perfect world, all females would have knowledge and awareness of their pelvic floor and how it relates to the rest of the body…. But unfortunately that is not the case and many don’t start thinking of their pelvic floor until pregnancy — and even then it’s usually in the third trimester! In reality, you can start working on your pelvic floor health as soon as you find out you’re pregnant! 🤰 Here are 5 pieces of advice for pelvic health in your 1st trimester ⬇️ 1. Learn your anatomy! Many women don’t even know the basics of their pelvic floor because we aren’t even taught it! 2. Learn how to appropriately contract AND lift your pelvic floor without using any of the surrounding muscles. 3. Learn how to LENGTHEN your pelvic floor through diaphragmatic breathing (you’ll especially need this for labor!) 4. Establish a relationship with a pelvic floor PT who can be a resource for you throughout pregnancy when ache and pains arise! 5. Use a mirror and take a look at your vulva! Visually connecting with your own anatomy makes it so much easier to mentally connect with it during exercise and labor. When did you first start paying attention to your pelvic floor? Was it during pregnancy? Postpartum? Never? It’s never too late! #firsttrimester #pregnancyjourney #pelvicfloorphysicaltherapy #pelvicfloorpt

3 more tips below ⬇️ Hi 👋 I’m Dr. Mae Hughes, mom of one (soon to be two), pelvic floor physical therapist & strength coach and my goal is to help women integrate pelvic floor wellness into every stage of female fitness 💪 Here are 3 more tips to protect your pelvic floor & core while running during pregnancy… 1. Add a slight incline — this will help force a forward trunk lean to get those ribs over your pelvis 2. Land softly — you want to land as quietly as possible to better absorb force through your lower body 3. Add a belly band — don’t be afraid to add a little support to your bump especially further into your 2nd and 3rd trimesters. #runningtips #prenatalfitness #runningmama #physicaltherapy #pelvicfloorpt
