What Can We Do To
POP that booty back postpartum?
Strengthening / Coordinating core & Glutes
After the trauma our pelvic floor and core have gone through growing and birthing your baby, it's important to rehab and reconnect your low core & pelvic floor, as well as strengthen glutes by progressively increasing the load and intensity of the exercises.
Avoid Clenching Booty
As mamas, we tend to clench or squeeze our booty not purposely both in everyday tasks as well as when doing exercises because of our weak pelvic floor, core, and glutes from growing & birthing a baby. Placing attention on acknowledging this habit and unclenching your butt cheeks daily will help put less pressure forward.
MAINTAIN PROPER ALIGNEMENT
Understanding proper alignment (shoulders stacked over hips, and hips stacked over knees) without tucking pelvis in or sticking booty out (posterior & anterior pelvic tilts) allow our body to be in proper alignment and pressure to be maintained throughout our body rather than forward towards glutes and pelvic floor. Leaning slightly forward can help create availability in glutes.
HIP FLEXOR MOBILITY
Integrating hip flexor mobility exercises into your daily routine will help alleviate tight hip flexors and allow more load with correct alignment and form to take place when strengthening your glutes and performing everyday tasks.
