EpicSode 50: This Woman's Work- BarBelle Jahmeilah
This is for all the baby's mamas, mama's mamas, mamas, baby mama's, mamas, mama's-to-be, step-mamas, and not at all mamas! In this special Mother's Day episode (and the 50th epicsode of the podcast!!!!), Bri talks to Jahmeilah: mom of 2, certified Pregnancy and Postpartum Athleticism Coach, and CrossFit Level 2 Trainer with 5 years of experience coaching athletes of various ages and abilities. They discuss how to safely train before, during and after pregnancy, why "snap-back" culture is some B.S., finding balance as an athlete, coach, wife, and mom, the pee on the platform controversy, how to keep your pelvic floor healthy, and why proper breathing techniques DO NOT equal twerking! You won't want to miss this epicsode! See you at the Bar!
