Episode notes
You don’t have to be pregnant or postpartum to experience pelvic floor dysfunction.
In this solo episode, I’m speaking directly to athletic women who train hard, compete, lift, run, and still deal with leaking,.
We break down what the latest research shows about pelvic floor dysfunction in female athletes, why high-impact training increases risk, and why this is not simply a “weakness” issue. I explain the role of load, fatigue, biomechanics, energy availability, and pressure management — and most importantly, what you can actually do about it.
If you’ve ever wondered why you leak during double unders, feel pressure on downhills, or don’t fully trust your core under load, this episode is for you.
