53. When Can You Safely Return to Exercise Postpartum? What the Research Says — Dr. Margie Davenport (Part 2)

In this episode, I’m continuing my conversation with Dr. Margie Davenport to talk about what the research actually says when it comes to returning to exercise postpartum. We break down why the “6-week clearance” isn’t the full picture, how recovery is far more individualized than we’ve been led to believe, and what a safe, gradual return to movement can really look like.We also talk about the role of early movement, mental health, sleep, and why starting before 12 weeks postpartum can be so powerful. If you’ve ever wondered when it’s truly safe to exercise again or how to rebuild your strength with confidence, this episode will help you take that next step in a way that supports your body and your life as a mom.Make sure to hit follow/subscribe so you never miss an episode!Connect with Dr. Margie:Follow on Instagram @drmargiedavenportCheck out her websiteConnect with Dr. Karlie:Follow on Instagram @drkarlieCheck out the websiteResources & Links:Episode 52.
