When was the last time you thought about your pelvic floor? If you're like most moms, it probably doesn’t cross your mind until something feels off. Maybe it’s that unexpected sneeze that leads to a little leak, or when you’re trying to get off the floor and your belly cones, or maybe it’s just the way your core just doesn’t feel as strong or connected as it used to. Pregnancy and birth place incredible demands on your body, especially your core and pelvic floor. These deep foundational muscles are the unsung heroes of motherhood. They help support your spine, stabilize your movements, and keep everything working smoothly from chasing toddlers to carrying groceries to making it through a full day without back pain. But here’s the truth: rebuilding strength in your core and pelvic floor isn’t just about kegels or crunches. It’s about intentional movement that reconnects you to your breath, your alignment, and your body as a whole. That’s where ABC Fit Collective comes in.
Have you ever looked in the mirror, not recognizing the strong, energized woman you know is in there somewhere? Maybe you’re navigating postpartum recovery, or balancing toddler tantrums with a never-ending to-do list, wondering where your energy (and your booty!) went. We hear you. We are you. And we’re here to say: you can feel strong again, you can reconnect with your body, and yes; you can grow that booty with moves that actually support your postpartum recovery. At ABC Fit Collective, we believe fitness for moms should be empowering, effective, and tailored to your unique journey. That’s why our workouts are rooted in the ABCs: Alignment, Breath, and Core - the three essentials for safe and sustainable movement during pregnancy and postpartum. And today, we’re sharing one of our favorite glute-building staples: deadlifts , mama-style.
If you've ever jumped into a workout and thought, “Why doesn’t this feel right anymore?” - you're not alone. Maybe it's a twinge in your back, pressure in your core, or that sense that your body is just... different. It’s not in your head, and it doesn’t mean you’re broken or doing anything wrong. Your body has been through incredible changes, and it deserves a fitness approach that meets you where you are. That’s exactly why we created the ABC Method, a simple, powerful formula built just for moms, at any stage of pregnancy or postpartum. And once you learn how to use it, everything about movement starts to feel better. Let’s break down the ABCs and show you how to bring them into your everyday routine.
Okay, first off, let’s take a moment to acknowledge the incredible thing you just did: you brought a human into the world. Whether you had a birth plan that went exactly as expected or one that detoured into the unexpected, the result is still the same: your body just accomplished something absolutely amazing. And now? Now it’s time to care for you .
