In this episode, I sit down with Pregnancy and Postpartum Athleticism Coach, Jamie Straker to discuss:

The fears around doing planks and pushups postpartum
Some harmful messaging
Reasons why getting back to planking and pushups is helpful
How to start with the basics
Ways to progress back to planking and pushups
Signs your body may be finding the exercise too difficult

Jamie is a Pregnancy and Postpartum Athleticism Coach and owner of JS Fitness.
She has a passion for educating people and motivating them to move their bodies in ways that empower them and make them feel strong throughout pregnancy, postpartum and beyond.
Jamie is a trained elementary school teacher, but after having two children she saw a need for educating women and creating fitness opportunities where women feel safe and strong in their bodies.

Jamie works with people during pregnancy and postpartum to get strong and feel confident in their bodies, both online and in person in Kelowna, British Columbia.
