CELESTE GOODSON -Training for Impact in the Postpartum Athlete
Ever wonder how much impact you're really putting through your body when you do skipping drills, single leg hops, or sprint starts?
đď¸ Don't miss a new episode with Celeste Goodson of @recorefitnessâand weâre getting nerdy (in the best way) about external load, impact progression, and how to apply her 2022 research to real-life postpartum rehab.
Yep, weâre talking about her 2022 article from Physical Therapy in Sportâ"External loading of common training drills"âand how it helps us rank drills based on impact to create smarter, more individualized return-to-run programs.
We get deep into we've both been doing individually with this information the past few years in our our practices to extrapolate & apply this information to our postpartum clients!
This is a must-listen if youâre working with postpartum runners who leak, feel pressure, or just want to get back to impact without guessing whatâs âtoo much.â
We get into:
đš Why some âlow-impactâ drills arenât really low impact
đš How to introduce load in a progressive, pelvic-floor-friendly way
đš Modifying for prolapse without babying your athletes
đš Building strong foundations before layering in speed
đš The real difference between early-phase rehab and performance prep
Celeste breaks it all downâevidence meets practical. Whether you're a coach, clinician, or mom in the thick of it, youâll walk away with actionable tools you can use right now.
đ§ Tune in if youâre tired of guessing and ready to start programming smarter, not softer. DM me for the episode link!
