Power Through Pregnancy: Essential Exercise Tips for a Strong & Healthy Postpartum

Staying active during pregnancy isn't just for your overall health - it can also play a big role in how you experience labour. Evidence shows that regular physical activity can help shorten labour and better prepare your body for the physical demands of childbirth. After baby arrives, it’s all about rebuilding your strength, starting slow and steady, and adding new movements as your body heals. In today’s episode, we’re chatting with Robyn Rayner, a Registered Massage Therapist, CrossFit Level 2 Coach, and Pregnancy & Postpartum Athleticism Coach, about how to stay strong through pregnancy and the postpartum journey. Robyn offers actionable tips on how to approach fitness during these pivotal times, plus a deep dive into the importance of rehab and recovery after birth. Bonus: Robyn is offering our listeners an exclusive 25% discount on her virtual pregnancy and postpartum exercise program! To claim it, simply DM her on Instagram and let her know you heard about the deal on the She Found Motherhood Podcast!
