Until that occasional low back twinge turns into needing a week off. Or your wonky knee is now more angry than wonky. Or that tight pelvic floor is wreaking havoc on your jogging dreams.

But it can seem impossible to make time for separate strength AND cardio AND mobility… blargh!

That’s why I recommend to all my clients to include mobility and stretching work at “natural” points in their day. And inside The Reset Movement Club, we use mobility training for our warmups, in between exercises when we’re breathless and need a rest, AND stand alone workouts that zero in on areas commonly tight for moms, at all stages.

And one easy way to get a bit of chill mobility in, is right before bed — or even better, IN bed!

Pro tip: your headboard or bedroom wall is the PERFECT spot for this legs-up-the-wall sequence!

Legs up the wall is a fab way to unwind at the end of your day. The legs up the wall position can help you:

• recover from cardio or strength workouts

• release tight hamstrings

• relax your pelvic floor for less leakage and pressure

• improve circulation and decreases foot & ankle swelling

• down-regulate your amped up nervous system

I’ve included a BUNCH of ways you can make Legs Up The Wall ore interesting and effective in the video below. ? (Plus, if you’re like me and have a hard time sitting still you’ll love these moving legs-up-the-wall ideas so you don’t get bored.)
