Description

Each year, millions of women enter the “ultimate athletic event” of pregnancy – often unaware of the physical challenges that lay ahead. Conventional guidance tells them to “take it easy” to mitigate injury risk, but often this advice has the opposite effect, as it leaves women unprepared to manage the stresses placed on their bodies. You have the power to change this paradigm, and it begins here. Through this introductory course, you’ll discover what the body goes through during pregnancy, childbirth, and early motherhood, and learn a stage-based, progressive programming framework that can you can apply to pregnant clients of all stages and fitness levels (from the novice to the athlete) to help them successfully manage the stresses ahead, and emerge stronger than ever.
