040 What EVERY Woman Should Know about Her Pelvic Floor and Core

Having a well functioning core and pelvic floor is absolutely vital. Of course, that goes beyond doing a few Kegels or pelvic floor exercises and the plank. There are some misconceptions about this, which I want to clarify in this episode. So tune in as I share with you some of the key things that every woman should know about core and pelvic floor.

What You Will Learn in This Episode:

- What the core really is

- Why leaking is more common than you think

- How to recognise a weak pelvic floor

- What a hypertonic pelvic floor means

- How to do your pelvic floor exercises correctly

- How to reduce the stress and learn to down-train

- What to do if you have a prolapse

- How you can know when you need to ask for help

Looking after your pelvic floor and core health is vital because they are holding up your internal organs, giving your whole body support and strength and keeping it strong.
