On this episode Mia chats with Courtney Wycoff of Momma Strong. Courtney shares her journey as a professional dancer and pilates instructor, but was noticing that lots of the women she worked with were dealing with lots of back pain. She tells her story about of being a mom of two little kids and feeling lots of back pain herself, so she hit the books and started to figure out what could help her. She talks about developing strength across the back line of the body — planks instead of sit-up and a focus on glutes and mid-back as some simple starting points. Courtney also talks about some of the mistakes we make when thinking about our pelvic floor muscles. They talk about strength and more aerobic exercise, and Courtney has a really refreshing perspective on stress and the nervous system. At the end they touch on kids and fitness.
