Back from my holidays and I find this little gem of new research about hypopresives!

"AHG was capable to activate accessory respiratory muscles in the orthostatic, sitting and supine postures. Thus, this technique possibly improves the process of pulmonary ventilation, without interfering in the respiratory rate.

Implications: These results seem to be very promising, since it demonstrates any mobilization of lung volume without interfering the duration of respiratory cycles. Therefore, as a future perspective, AHG should be useful as an adjunctive therapy in the treatment of patients with obstructive lung dissesse and others."

High Intensity and “Risky” Sports During Pregnancy | postnatalbodyfix.com Can women sky dive, horse-back ride or mountain bike during pregnancy? What about intense running or heavy weight lifting? How do we decide what is appropriate during pregnancy?

Some great info from Jenny Burrell about adapting Cross Fit during pregnancy. Also make sure hypopresives are part of postpartum recovery to get pelvic floor ready to get back in the box.

Buuuf... Jumping jacks would NOT be on my list of essential moves for the pelvic floor... unless you want a prolapse that is. My top 5 are: hypopresives, adduction, resisted abduction, squats, and integrated movements with proper alignment, breathing and timing.

4 Essential Moves To Strengthen Your Pelvic Floor Check out these exercises that strengthen your pelvic floor and help reduce your risk of incontinence, improve your sexual health, and boost your core strength and stability.

Thanks to those of you who have provided feedback on the new hypopresive online courses. I will shoot an additional video for module one to answer your questions. www.hypopresives.com

Hypos in the news! Written by one of my students from the first course I taught in Canada. Nice work Kim!

Skip the crunches – here’s how to really work your core Feeling the burn is causing more harm than good, so it’s time to think of core training differently

Here are some ideas on how to incorporate hypopresives into a fitness program. They are fantastic for a warm up for example! http://hypopresives.com/hypopresives/incorporating-hypopresive-techniques-into-client-program

Look at this foto of the INVOLUNTARY contraction of the core during a hypopresive exercise! http://hypopresives.com/hypopresives/what-a-reflex-contraction-with-the-hypopresive-techniques-looks-like

What a reflex contraction with the Hypopresive Techniques looks like : Hypopresive Techniques As you already know the Hypopresive Exercises create a reflex contraction of the pelvic floor and abdominal wall. The aim is to stimulate type I fibers and get them reprogrammed to properly manage changes in intra-abdominal pressure.

Love getting emails like this from my online clients. :)

"Hello!

I have been following your post natal body fix for a while, and just received your hypopresives module one video - I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this. Thank you for making it available online as I have yet to find anyone near me offering it. With my first practice, I literally felt and heard my uterus suck back up into place. Haven't found anything that can do that!"

Tomorrow is re-evaluation day for some of my postpartum moms. :) They all follow a personalized plan in a group setting. Their workouts of course include hypopresives and every month we re-evaluate. Looking forward to seeing the more toned bellies and hearing about the better functioning pelvic floors tomorrow! :)
