@oliviahodaly: Mom 🍑 IS NOT inevitable!! Pregnancy doesn’t have to steal your glutes! If you continue to train them and keep them engaged throughout your pregnancy and post partum there’s no need for your glutes to become inactive during pregnancy and give you that “mom 🍑”. As your belly grows and your weight shifts forward, your hip flexors and lower back muscles take over and your glutes do less work. If you don’t train them or activate them during your pregnancy the muscle of course is going to shrink! Along with posture changes, the appearance of your glutes start to look less round and flatter 😅 It’s absolutely okay AND RECOMMEND to continue training during pregnancy!! Don’t look at pregnancy as a disability or illness that requires you to sit on the couch all day (I still do this BUT I also go to the gym 🤭) #pregnancy #fitpregnancy #bretcontreras #glutegains #thirdtrimester
