Are you frustrated every time you zip up those jeans - again - and the button just doesn’t shut? Are you searching for the energy to work out, but each day feels like an uphill battle? Do you crave those sweet compliments from your husband, like “babe, you’re looking amazing”? I’m so excited you’re here, mama! This podcast will help you feel strong again after having a baby, especially in your core and pelvic floor. Through easy, simple, and safe workouts that you can do from home, you’ll gain confidence, boost your energy to play with your baby more, and feel incredible slipping into that favorite dress you haven’t worn since your honeymoon. Hey, I’m Jena - a physical therapist, wife and mama of four. After each of my pregnancies I, too, struggled with losing my postpartum pooch, low energy levels and didn’t know how to regain my strength back. As a fitness lover, I craved working out like I did before having all those babies, but found that my body just wasn’t cut out for high-intensity workouts. And without having healed fully from pregnancy, I was an injury waiting to happen. I finally realized in order to fix my mommy tummy and repair my core strength I needed to go back to the basics of my physical therapy training and work on my inner core muscles first. It all starts with the core! It’s the foundation. Over 6 years and 4 kids, I created a postpartum workout program that is simple, safe and effective using a step-by-step plan that enables you to restore your core strength and energy while getting rid of the postpartum pooch. I can’t wait to share it with you - because if I can do it four times, I know you can, too! If you are ready to finally regain your strength back through a quick postpartum workout program designed with the busy mom in mind…. Restore your core strength and lose the pooch in the easiest, quickest and safest way possible… Eager to return to your athletic, energetic self with consistent workout habits.

Life update!
For the last few months I’ve been having a lot of trouble speaking in my normal voice. Throughout the day my voice would crack, I would get coughing spells, and eventually lose my voice at the end of the day. People were starting to ask if I was sick even though I wasn’t. So I decided to do something about it.
After seeing an ENT, I was diagnosed with nodules on my vocal chords. Which is basically calluses on my vocal chords causing raspiness. In this episode I also talk about what the two main things attributed to the nodules.
So, have you noticed if my voice has sounded different recently? Head over to my Instagram @livecorestrong and DM what you think!
Also, if you are struggling medically with something, don't hesitate to check in with a medical professional. It could be life changing.
Keep Smiling,
Jena

For 9 months your belly was a cozy home for your baby. But now that your baby has arrived, your belly needs extra support and restoration. I’m sure every mom can relate to having that postpartum pooch you just don't know how to hide.
Enter postpartum belly wraps! Think of belly wraps as a supportive hug for your abdominal muscles. Those muscles need extra help to get re-aligned and strengthened as you heal in the postpartum stage.
Postpartum belly wraps helped me after all 4 of my babies. So I'm excited to share something that other moms can use to heal after pregnancy. However, our bodies and healing journeys are all different. So please check with your healthcare provider first to confirm that a postpartum belly wrap is right for you.
You can find my favorite postpartum belly wrap, the Luxe Belly Wrap from Belly Bandit here.
And if you have any questions, feel free to DM me on Instagram @livecorestrong

Today we are talking about all things diastasis recti - also known as DR.
Did you know that 2 out 3 moms experience it? Yep, that's right. It's common but not normal. HOWEVER you don’t have to live with it for the rest of your life.
If you’re not sure if you have diastasis recti, as a physical therapist I’ll walk you through how you can check and what steps you can take to heal your core and close the gap. Let's say goodbye to your ab separation.
You can also watch how to test for diastasis recti here.
Plus, check out these abdominal bracing exercises on my blog.
If you still are not sure that you have diastasis recti, don't be shy to reach out to a physical therapist or your doctor to get a diagnosis.
Keep Smiling,
Jena

Have you ever wanted to be a fly on the wall during one of my coaching calls where I get the chance to provide tips on how to loose the mommy tummy?
Well, here’s your chance!
Listen in to this episode as I help Courtney, a mom of two littles, set up an individualized workout routine that focuses on getting rid of the mommy tummy. She is a busy working momma but I worked with her to squeeze in time for her to prioritize an effective workout routine into her schedule.
These 1-on-1 coaching calls are a wonderful tool if you feel stuck and everything you’ve tried is not working in your postpartum fitness journey.
Or maybe you haven't started your fitness journey yet but you want to start off on the right foot working out as a postpartum momma.
I can help you to get rid of the dreaded mommy pooch too! You can learn more about my 1-on-1 coaching here.
Keep Smiling,
Jena
