Episode 1: The Most Important Thing You Can Do After Your Tummy Tuck

In this episode, we dive into the single most important thing you can do for your recovery after a tummy tuck: core rehab. Whether you're freshly post-op, feeling strong but unsure how to safely return to exercise, or somewhere in between, this episode breaks down why rebuilding your core intentionally is key. We’ll walk you through what happens to your core during surgery, the mental and physical hurdles you might face afterward, and the exact steps you need to take to reconnect, rebuild, and strengthen your core for lasting results.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

• Why core rehab is the most important thing you can do after a tummy tuck — and why it’s not just about the first few weeks of recovery.
• The mental and physical challenges post-op — from feeling disconnected from your core to being either too afraid to move or too eager to jump back into workouts.
• The risks of avoiding core rehab — how fear of “ruining” your surgery can actually lead to poor movement patterns, muscle compensations, and even injury.
