Episode 74: Exercise Programming For The Pregnant And Postpartum Athlete

In this week’s episode, Heather Osby is back to interview me about exercise program design, specifically as it relates to pregnancy and postpartum. It can be confusing for coaches and practitioners to know exercises and progressions to help, and even more confusing for athletes because they second guess if their workouts are “right” for them.

This episode helps take big concepts and theories and provides practical and applicable examples.
