✨ Walking: The Most Underrated Postpartum Workout

Hey loves 🤍

Let’s talk about the one form of movement that carried me through postpartum, gently, consistently, and without pressure:

Walking.

Low intensity, steady, simple.
Just 35 minutes, 4–5 times a week (and some weeks, every day) - usually on the treadmill while talking to my family back home. It was realistic for the season I was in, and it gave me a moment to breathe.

✨ Why Walking Worked for Me

  • It was gentle on my healing body
  • It boosted my mood instantly, even on tired days, I’d finish feeling lighter, clearer, calmer
  • It felt doable, even when energy was low
  • It helped me reconnect with my body without forcing anything
  • It doubled as “connection time” with the people I love

Nothing dramatic.
Nothing extreme.
Just consistent, kind movement that helped me feel like myself again,  and because my body wasn’t under the stress of high‑intensity workouts, it responded better too.

✨ If You’re Postpartum…

If you’re postpartum and not sure where to start, start with walking.
On a treadmill, around the block, with a stroller… whatever fits your life right now.

Walking counts.
Walking works.
Walking is enough 🤍
