About the event
Join us from the comfort of your home for an hour of learning and movement!
In this workshop, the goal will be to leave with a sense of how to improve pelvic floor health during heavy lifting/intense exercise. Through posture changes and using natural stabilizing mechanisms in your body, we hope that you can feel more supported doing the things you love. We will be discussing both running and lifting mechanics after going through the "why" of dysfunction.
The format of the workshop will be the following:
-Understand your pelvic floor
-Learn why leaking and dysfunction can occur during heavy lifts and running
-Improve running mechanics to reduce the strain on pelvic floor muscles
-Master posture changes during lifts to help your core work smarter, not harder
Power point willl be utilized to follow along with the lecture topics, and we look forward to learning together!!
