134. How to Create A Realistic Postpartum Workout Plan with Kat Bright

Om avsnittet

The internet loves a simple rule: “Wait 6–8 weeks, then get back to working out.”
But real postpartum life isn’t that simple.

In this episode, Chelsea sits down with Kat Bright, a perinatal trainer (and athlete for life), to talk about returning to movement in the first year postpartum—without the bounce-back pressure, guilt, or all-or-nothing mindset.

Kat shares why postpartum fitness shouldn’t be about shrinking or “undoing” birth. It’s about rebuilding strength on your terms: more resilience, more vitality, and a body that feels like home again.

You’ll hear:

Why chasing your pre-baby body can keep you stuck
What consistency actually looks like with babies and toddlers
Why unfinished workouts still count (even just putting your workout clothes on)
How to start when you feel overwhelmed and don’t know where to begin
What to do when time and childcare feel like the biggest barrier
The “another baby vs. best shape of my life” conversation — and why it’s not either/or
Practical movement ideas when time and childcare are limited—especially in winter
