Ever wonder how much impact you're really putting through your body when you do skipping drills, single leg hops, or sprint starts?

🎙️ Don't miss a new episode with Celeste Goodson of @recorefitness—and we’re getting nerdy (in the best way) about external load, impact progression, and how to apply her 2022 research to real-life postpartum rehab.

Yep, we’re talking about her 2022 article from Physical Therapy in Sport—"External loading of common training drills"—and how it helps us rank drills based on impact to create smarter, more individualized return-to-run programs.

We get deep into we've both been doing individually with this information the past few years in our our practices to extrapolate & apply this information to our postpartum clients!

This is a must-listen if you’re working with postpartum runners who leak, feel pressure, or just want to get back to impact without guessing what’s “too much.”

We get into:
🔹 Why some “low-impact” drills aren’t really low impact
🔹 How to introduce load in a progressive, pelvic-floor-friendly way
🔹 Modifying for prolapse without babying your athletes
🔹 Building strong foundations before layering in speed
🔹 The real difference between early-phase rehab and performance prep

Celeste breaks it all down—evidence meets practical. Whether you're a coach, clinician, or mom in the thick of it, you’ll walk away with actionable tools you can use right now.
