  • Doing pelvic floor exercises can improve your overall core strength, particularly in the lower abdomen. It also has practical benefits, including improved bladder and bowel control.

The article from Fit & Well features insights from Pilates instructor Hollie Grant, who recommends three specific exercises to enhance pelvic floor strength and lower abdominal muscles. These exercises include the Pilates dart, where one lies face down and lifts the upper body and legs off the ground to engage the core; the Pilates hundred, which involves lying on your back, lifting your head and shoulders, and pumping your arms while keeping the legs raised; and the Pilates bridge, where you lift your hips towards the ceiling from a supine position to work the glutes and pelvic floor. Grant emphasizes the importance of these exercises for not only improving physical strength but also for aiding in recovery post-pregnancy and enhancing overall core stability.
