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!

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.

The benefits of wearing a belly wrap are many. But wearing it at the right time is so important. So listen in for the best way to keep track of the days and length of time you should be wearing your postpartum belly wrap.

Today I am sharing pregnancy and postpartum safe core exercises you can do at home. Our core is so weak after having a baby which makes these ab exercises so much more important and vital during postpartum recovery. What I love about these exercises is no matter what stage of motherhood you are in, pregnant or postpartum, they are safe!
I know you are busy as a new mom. So even if you can’t complete these exercises, I want you to still be thinking about exercise and keeping it in the back of your mind to be fit. The more you mentally rehearse fitness as part of your lifestyle, the more likely it WILL become part of your lifestyle.
Remember, we need to take care of our body because it’s the only body we have.
Keep Smiling,
Jena

If you’re a busy mom, you might feel like you don’t have enough time in the day to get a full 60-minute workout in. I get it. I don’t have that kind of time either. There’s so many other big things to do as a busy mom.
BUT I have a solution for you today. I’m sharing simple exercises that fit seamlessly into your daily routine. From brushing your teeth to sitting at a red light, I have exercises that will get your heart rate going.
I don't want you to resort to the, "I'm too busy. I can't work out." Because you can. And you will. If you think that you are a fit mom, then you will become a fit mom. So say it with me. “I am a fit mom!”
Comment in the Facebook group and let me know which exercise you are starting this week! I'm excited to hear what you all are doing to get fit.

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
