74| Core Confidence: How to Rebuild Your Strength After Baby with expert Dr. Jena Bradley
Description
Most of us that have ever had a baby notice that we still have a tummy even after delivery.....sometimes a long time after delivery. Some of that is extra fat of course, but some of it is actually a sign of a weak core!
And that's what we are talking about on today's podcast episode. In today's BONUS episode, I'm interviewing Dr. Jena Bradley, host of The Fit Postpartum Mom Podcast, mom of four, and a Physical Therapist with a passion for helping women lose the "mom pooch" and strengthen their core.
Dr. Jenna helps moms feel empowered to live that "fit mom" lifestyle easily amongst the chaos of motherhood so they feel strong and confident in their own skin.
In this episode we talk about why moms get a "pooch", why core strength is so important (especially for strength training), and where to get started with strengthening you core.
