In this episode, host Alison Marie discusses how to strengthen the pelvic floor for running by explaining how pelvic floor health connects to posture, breathing, hip rotation, and foot mechanics. She emphasizes that a responsive pelvic floor is not about constant Kegels but about finding length, mobility, and natural activation through internal rotation, pronation, and dynamic movement. By combining mindful breathwork, rib cage mobility, and progressive strength training, runners can better manage forces, improve stride efficiency, and reduce issues like incontinence. The host also highlights her Pelvic Floor Fundamentals course and Women’s Running Academy Intensive as resources to help women build strength, confidence, and long-term resilience in their running.

• Women’s Running Academy Intensive: A 12-week group mentorship program to help female runners ditch the cycle of injury and burn out through understanding their body on a deeper level. Take the reins of your training and continue to perform confidently while feeling great long-term.
