The Check-In
The Check-In: Your Starting Point for Postpartum Strength
The Check-In is your intentional first step back into movement after being cleared for exercise post-birth. This foundational series is designed to help you reconnect with your body safely and confidently, laying the groundwork for more dynamic workouts ahead.
This series was developed in collaboration with Dr. Aimee Anagnostos, a Doctor of Physical Therapy and Clinic Director at Myodetox Flatiron, specializing in pelvic health. With a background in personal training and Pilates, Dr. Aimee brings a thoughtful, clinical, and movement-forward approach to postpartum recovery—bridging the gap between physical therapy and real-world fitness.
The Program
We begin by reintroducing movement through glute engagement, mobility work, and core re-patterning. These early sessions are intentionally paced to help you reconnect with your pelvic floor, engage your stabilizers, and feel safe in your body again. You’ll move through:
1. Pelvic tilts, spinal rotation, and inner thigh mobility
2. Core stability work like bird dogs and modified dead bugs
3. Glute-focused activation including bridges, clamshells, and functional strength patterns
Throughout the series, Hilary moves with you. While she’s pre and postnatal certified, she’s not a licensed pelvic floor therapist—which is why Dr. Aimee leads these sessions. You deserve expert care, and this is it.
We End Where Most Programs Begin: With Diastasis Recti
Once you’ve reconnected with your breath and movement patterns, we close the series with a dedicated session on Diastasis Recti (DR)—because now you’re equipped with the most powerful healing tool: 360 breath. In this final session, Dr. Aimee covers:
1. What DR is and how it can present in your body
2. A simple self-assessment to check for abdominal separation
3. Movement strategies you can layer onto your new foundation to support healing
This isn’t a crash course or a rushed return. It’s a guided, expert-backed path to strength, recovery, and readiness—so when you're ready to take on more, you know you’re building from the right place.
