Week Postpartum Athlete Training Program (NEW)

Your Program for Postpartum Fitness

So many athletes are eager to return to the gym after having a baby, but feel overwhelmed with what to do, what not to do, how to progress, how to regress and knowing how to listen to their body during such a vulnerable time.

Having a baby is a big deal and a postpartum body is healing, adapting and transitioning with each precious week!

There’s also a strong desire to feel more like ourselves, in the environment we love, doing exercise and movement that resonates with our heart, body and mind!

There is no one size fits all methodology or program, especially for postpartum athletes…

Implementing a new strategy that takes into account healing of the core and pelvic floor is fundamental for returning to desired levels of athleticism.

With the right education on adjusted training strategy, movement patterns, symptoms to be mindful of (Diastasis Recti, incontinence, prolapse, etc), the freedom to modify and gradual progression, you can tackle this overwhelming and unfamiliar chapter in athleticism.

The 8 Week Postpartum Athlete Program was created with an intimate awareness of an athlete’s mindset, healing body, and eagerness to return to the gym.

This digital program was designed in a way that helps set the foundation (weeks 1 & 2), reintegrates (week 3 & 4), builds to consistency (weeks 5 &6) and leads to confidence (7 & 8).

Course Includes:

A detailed downloadable PDF guide with complete programming

Demonstration videos for all exercises, including tips for the best movement strategy

A teaching video that provides an essential overview of postpartum athleticism strategy

Course Features

This program is split into 4 training cycles of 2 weeks each. Each cycle builds upon the last one, which is why workouts are repeated within the 2-week mini cycle. Consistency and practice of strategy and movement patterns are critical for building a foundation.

Weeks 1 & 2: The Foundation

This phase is more of a mental workout than a physical one, however, you’re using simple movements to help learn the new strategies for rehabbing your postpartum body. Movement teaches, but your foundation is what sustains gradual progress.

Week 3 & 4: Reintegration

This phase builds upon the foundation of strategy and rehab and begins the reintegration int more traditional strength work and complementary accessory exercise. These movements may build familiarity, but should not be challenged with load or intensity, even if it feels good to be training in this capacity again.

Week 5 & 6: Consistency

Your strategy and routine have been established and now it’s time to focus on building into consistent application of your individual strategy, tendencies and movements. Focus on maintaining quality movement patterns and feeling more comfortable in your body for where it’s at right now.

Week 7 & 8 : Confidence

Your strength in strategy and movement has been built over the course of 6 weeks. You will begin to feel more confident in how to apply conscious effort of your core and pelvic health considerations to your choice of movement moving forward. You will find that with practice, it will become more automatic, which leads to confidence in knowing how to truly listen to your body.

“The 8 week Postpartum Training program saved my pelvic floor. I had 3 babies in just three & half years! As an avid fitness goer and CrossFitter it was extremely difficult to be kind to my postpartum body. Bri’s program made me “rehab” my internal muscles before allowing me “back into the game.” I am forever great full that I chose the Postpartum Training Program so that I can jump, run, and squat without any incontinence issues. I also knew that I needed to give myself a break from all of the trauma that my body had gone through with labor and delivery that many times in such a short period of time. Bri’s postpartum training program allowed me to get in touch with my postpartum body and be kind to myself as I discovered my newfound outlook on Fitness. As a certified personal trainer and a CrossFit coach I now feel comfortable talking with other prenatal and postpartum women about what their fitness journey should look like and refer them to this post partum training program when they are ready after birth. Thank you Bri!!”

Brianna Battles

I’m Brianna Battles, Founder and CEO of Pregnancy & Postpartum Athleticism ™. I created this movement after the birth of my first son, when I realized my approach as an athlete, and my knowledge as a coach was off base. There were two approaches to training during pregnancy, one was the conservative recommendations (yoga, don’t lift over 20lbs, etc), and the other was “be a badass!” and “train for birth.” As an athlete and coach, I of course gravitated to the later. I thought I knew enough and felt fine physically and mentally in how I went about my training.

After I had my son, I was desperate to get back into my training, routine and lifestyle, but I slowly began realizing that this was much different than I anticipated, and all of the generalizations I was given significantly lacked context. I pushed myself mentally and physically and thought I was doing what was “best” and “right,” especially as an experienced athlete and coach.

I spent the next few years diving into women’s health information, research and networking with like-hearted professionals, combining that with the fundamentals of exercise science. I rehabbed, learned from multiple professionals and invested in continuing education opportunities. I implemented a different mindset and tactical approach, which allowed me to coach high level/professional athletes and experience testing these methods and all-encompassing game plan through pregnancy and postpartum.

After coaching thousands of pregnant and postpartum athletes both online and in my local community, I knew I would have the most reach by educating coaching professionals to do the same with their unique effort.

“The 8- week postpartum program was exactly what I needed to get back into a routine. It was not only clear and easy to follow, but it gave me a new sense of confidence I didn’t have right after baby. Grateful for such an awesome program that makes me feel strong and more connected to my body than ever before.”
