    • Fitness

In this episode of The Candid Fitness, I chat with Calum Wilson who is a recognised specialist in pre and post-natal training. With more than a decade worth of experience guiding women throughout their pregnancy journey and beyond, he is the co-owner of BUMP health in Sydney. A highly respected leader within the industry, Calum is also an educator who has successfully trained over 3,000 personal trainers, teaching his Fitness Australia accredited course “A Comprehensive Guide to Exercising Throughout Pregnancy and Beyond”.

In this candid conversation, we discussed the importance of exercise during pregnancy and the role it plays in post-natal recovery. We discussed in detail about the exercise considerations for each trimester and the post-pregnancy recovery process.

Some of the discussion topics include:


Calum's background in pre & post-natal fitness and his professional journey
Importance of exercise during pregnancy
Exercise considerations during pregnancy
Importance of strengthening pelvic floor muscles during pregnancy
Tightness in hips (pubic symphysis) during pregnancy and ways to counter it.
Movement patterns (exercises) to avoid during 2nd and 3rd trimester
Exercise to perform from 28th week onwards - Transverse Abdominis (TVA) exercises
The post-natal recovery process - Normal vs C-Section delivery
Abdominal separation post pregnancy - Diastasis Recti
