129- How to Optimize Your Exercise Recovery for a Stronger Core & Pelvic Floor

---

Season 3 Episode 129

---

You’ve probably heard the phrase “no pain, no gain.” But when it comes to your core and pelvic floor, that couldn’t be further from the truth.

The real magic doesn’t happen during your workout — it happens during your recovery.

In this episode of Pelvic Floor, Core & More, Dr. Desiree Cassell, pelvic floor physical therapist and women’s health expert, breaks down why recovery is essential for healing, strength, and sustainability — and how skipping it could be holding you back or making your symptoms worse.

Whether you’re pregnant, postpartum, or years down the road, these tips will help you optimize recovery so you can finally feel strong, confident, and connected in your body again.

💡 Inside This Episode You’ll Learn:

• ✅ Why recovery is just as important as your workouts for pelvic floor and core healing.
  
  

• ✅ The most common mistakes women make with recovery — and how they lead to leaks, prolapse, or pain.
  
  

• ✅ Practical recovery tools: breathwork, fascia release, active recovery, nutrition, and sleep.
  
  

• ✅ How to know if you’re pushing too hard (symptoms as feedback, not failure).
  
  

• ✅ Simple recovery rituals you can start today, even as a busy mom.
  
  

🌸 Why This Matters:

Recovery isn’t weakness — it’s wisdom. When you honor your body’s need for rest and restoration, you’ll make more progress, protect your pelvic floor, and feel stronger in the long run.

Healing isn’t just about what you do — it’s about how you recover.
