Strong abs far outweigh the mommy tummy. Here are 10 reasons why it’s time to lose the pooch and have a strong core postpartum.
Hi mama friend, I know you see other moms out there with their little baby and they look like they didn’t even gain an ounce of weight.
You’re thinking, how did she do that, how do I do that?
How do I get rid of the excess baby weight?
You know it’s not about the looks but it’s about the health. The whole point of getting rid of the mommy tummy is that you want to live a healthy life from this point on as a mom. You know the pooch isn’t helping you, but if anything it’s hurting you.
You know it’s important to lose the mommy tummy, but why. Let’s get real today and talk about the reasons why the mommy tummy should be gone and why strong abs should be here.
1. Difficulty Lifting The Baby
Ever struggled to lift your baby without straining your back? Strong abs make it easier to lift and carry your little one, saving your back from unnecessary stress.
2. Posture Struggles During Feeding Time
If you find yourself hunching over during breastfeeding, strong abs can help you maintain a more comfortable and supportive posture, reducing discomfort during feeding sessions.
3. Feeling Tired All The Time
Tackling the constant fatigue? Developing core strength provides an energy boost, helping you power through sleepless nights and demanding days with more vitality.
4. Clothes Not Fitting Right
Frustrated with the postpartum “pooch” affecting your wardrobe choices? Strengthening your abs contributes to a flatter tummy, making it easier to slip into pre-pregnancy clothes.
5. Diastasis Recti Concerns
Dealing with abdominal separation after childbirth? Working on your abs helps close the gap, aiding in the recovery from diastasis recti and restoring core stability.
6. Back Pain From Constant Bending
If picking up toys and constantly bending down feels like a chore, strong abs provide the support your spine needs, reducing the risk of back pain and discomfort.
7. Feeling Disconnected from your Body.
Has pregnancy left you feeling disconnected from your core? Reconnecting with and strengthening your abdominal muscles can help you regain a sense of control over your body.
8. Dealing With Incontinence
Tired of dealing with postpartum leaks? Strengthening your core, including the pelvic floor muscles, helps improve bladder control and reduces the risk of incontinence.
9. Juggling multiple responsibilities?
A strong core enhances functional fitness, making it easier to handle the physical demands of daily mom life.
10. Wanting To Set A Healthy Example for Your Child
As moms, we want the best for our kids. By prioritizing a strong core, you not only improve your own well-being but also set a positive example, promoting a healthy lifestyle for your family.

We don’t realize how much we use our core muscles throughout the day, but we need to engage our cores with everything we do. Let me say that again, everything!!
