Common Myths About Exercise During Pregnancy

Julie’s program and book were mentioned by Blair Fillingham in an article called -These Common Myths Will Change The Way You Think About Exercise During Pregnancy, on this website mindbodygreen.com.

Here is what she said:Yes, you can do work that enables you to properly engage your abdominal muscles and pelvic floor. This myth is telling you not to do the old-fashioned “sit-ups” that mostly engage your rectus abdominus (the superficial “six-pack” abs at the front). There are several other core muscles that we should absolutely continue to work with because they will help you to birth your baby (and carry him/her around afterward!). I love the Tupler Technique®, which is outlined in the book Together Tummy.
