🩷Helping moms rebuild strength and lose body fat after babies
✨MOMS NEED MUSCLE
💪DM READY Postpartum Progression Method

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

I’m never going to give you advice to make yourself smaller.

I’ve been there. I had to rebuild my whole relationship with fitness and learn to take up space instead of shrinking out of it.

And postpartum? I know what it feels like when your body doesn’t feel like yours, on broken sleep, while learning a whole new identity as a mom.

I’ve been doing this since I was 17, with a doctorate in physical therapy and my prenatal and postpartum corrective exercise specialist certification.

I say that because it matters. Postpartum is a return-to-sport phase. You don’t throw an athlete straight back into the game after an injury, you rebuild them for it. Same with your body after a baby. Strategy matters. And lived experience matters. I have both.

You don’t have to rush anything. You get to rebuild, and take up space while you do it.
We already have a million tabs open in our heads. Your health shouldn’t be one more thing pulling at you. It should be the thing that steadies you.

That’s how I coach. Strong, simple, no overwhelm. Not just lifting, but handing you back your energy, your confidence, and the capacity to show up big for the people you love most.

If that’s the mom you’re ready to be, DM me the word MAMA.

Feeling disconnected from your core is not a weakness problem when the muscles holding everything together were stretched around a person for nine months and then asked to perform on day one.

Most moms come to me a year out from delivery, worn down from sorting through conflicting advice about what is actually safe to do now.

When to load heavier, what is worth holding off on, or when the smartest move is to just sleep. It is a lot to carry on broken sleep while keeping everything else running, so the workouts are the first thing to slip.
And it can feel like starting from scratch in a body that feels a little (or a lot) differently than it did before.

I want this for you because building real muscle is how you show up with your energy and your presence intact, for the baby who needs you.

The Postpartum Progression Method puts a doctor of physical therapy on every rep, in a progression built for the body and the schedule you have right now.

It’s not only to help you feel strong and capable. But it’s to help you create magic for your baby (ies) from a mom who filled her cup first.

DM me the word MAMA and I’ll send the details 💛 by @dochollycoaching

listen during my first pregnancy, even though i’m a DPT and certified in prenatal and postpartum corrective exercise… i really wanted to experience what it felt like to have my body change to feel super confident sharing my exercise strategy throughout.

this time im going to share my entire journey and what im doing that helped me crush it with lena. from pregnancy to postpartum, and we’re doing it again but now with experience.

im going to keep as much muscle as possible. while fatigued, while raising a toddler.

MOMS NEED MUSCLE. Less is better done better. So let’s make it count!

this was before my first tri symptoms hit, but overall the theme is LESS done BETTER is MORE.

especially throughout the first trimester.
strength is the most supportive thing you can work on throughout pregnancy.

muscle is protective and MOMS NEED MUSCLE 💪🥳 by @dochollycoaching

here’s the thing, my new online client commutes 45-60 min to work each way. comes home, puts her kids to bed and works out after 8 pm.

her youngest is ~6 months old.

im not saying its easy or we all have the same 24 hours each day.

but if youre ready to make the time and prioritize you, you will.

here for you, DM me READY if thats you 🩷 by @dochollycoaching
