Low energy. Constant cravings. Plateaued progress?
You might not be doing too much you might be eating too little.

Under-eating is more common than you think, especially for women in midlife.
And it affects more than just your workouts it impacts your sleep, mood and metabolism too.

This post was inspired by recent learning we did with Nutritionist Ana Ravier () as part of my MumSafe™ membership. It helped us better understand how to support women through these changes.

Fatigue is more than just feeling tired.
It can sneak into every part of your day and often, it doesn’t look the way you’d expect.

💡 Here’s how fatigue might show up and why it’s more than just low energy:
– You sleep, but still wake up exhausted
– Your brain feels foggy or forgetful
– Your limbs feel heavy, like you're moving through mud
– You crash after doing “normal” things like a walk or school run
– You feel more sensitive to noise, light, or stress
– You lose motivation, not because you don’t care, but because you’re done

Sound familiar?

This is the reality for many mums especially those navigating postnatal recovery, perimenopause, long COVID, or burnout.

And here’s the most important part:
You're not lazy. You’re not broken. You’re fatigued. And your body is asking for support, not more pushing.

At MumSafe, we work with mums experiencing these exact challenges. We take a whole-body, whole-person approach and can connect you with trusted practitioners for extra support too.

Perimenopause isn’t the end of strength, it’s a new chapter.

Yes, your hormones might be changing; your sleep, energy, and even your body might feel different. But with the right nourishment, movement, and self-care, you can feel strong, energised, and confident through it all.

Focus on:
🥚 Protein for muscle & energy
🥬 Calcium + Vitamin D for bones
🌰 Healthy fats for hormones
💧 Hydration & fibre for balance

You don’t need restriction, just gentle, consistent care for your body.
Perimenopause is not something to fix, it’s something to support.

You’ve got this, mum and we’re here with you every step of the way!

So many mums are living in survival mode, thinking they just need to “push through” a little harder.

But if you’re navigating postnatal depletion, peri-menopause or chronic stress, your body might be asking for something different.

If this sounds like you: You’re not lazy. And you’re definitely not alone.

👉 Head to mumsafemovement.com to find a local trainer near you if you want support that meets you exactly where you are, no pushing, no shame, just compassionate movement and nervous system care.

A good warm-up does more than just prepare your body, it helps you connect with yourself before your workout begins.

Lisa reminds us that a proper warm-up helps you:
🌿 Check in with how your body’s feeling today
💨 Connect with your breath, core and pelvic floor
🤸‍♀️ Gently bring mobility and awareness before diving into the main session

Because when we start our movement with intention, we move better, feel stronger, and get more out of every workout.

Let’s talk about core recovery.
And no, it’s not just about closing the gap.
⁠
When we’re healing diastasis, we focus on function over flatness, because your core has a bigger job than just looking a certain way.⁠
⁠
Here are the 3 things I look for:
1️⃣ Can your body manage pressure (without coning or doming)?
2️⃣ Can you generate the right tension when you need it (without bracing all day)?
3️⃣ Are your glutes, feet and breath helping your core rather than working against it?⁠
⁠
If you’ve been told to just “do more core work” or wait for the gap to close, this is your permission to do things differently.
⁠
You deserve recovery that helps you feel strong, supported and confident in your body again.

MumSafe Trainers are highly educated in supporting you to rebuild from the inside out - make sure to reach out for support and guidance around what is right for you.

You’ve probably seen them online, high-tech devices promising to “fix” leakage or strengthen your pelvic floor in just a few weeks.
And let’s be honest, as a busy mum, that sounds tempting, right?

But here’s the thing, your pelvic floor isn’t just one muscle you can “zap” back into shape. It’s part of a whole system that includes your core, breath, posture, and the way you move every day.

Before investing in a pelvic floor gadget, it’s important to know:
⚡ A machine can help activate muscles but it can’t teach your body how to manage pressure when you lift, run, or even cough.
⚡ Some women don’t need more strength, they need to release tension.
⚡ Real progress comes from understanding how your whole body works together.

If you’re curious about using one of these machines, chat with a women’s health physiotherapist or a MumSafe™ Trainer first. They can help you find what’s right for your body and guide you safely through recovery and beyond.

Because your pelvic floor deserves more than a quick fix, it deserves a whole-body approach that helps you feel confident, strong, and supported in every season of motherhood. 💪

Not all movement supports your hormones the same way.

The right kind of exercise can help lower cortisol, stabilise blood sugar, boost mood and even support more restful sleep.

But when you're constantly pushing through high-intensity workouts (especially while stressed or sleep-deprived), it can backfire, spiking stress hormones and leaving you more depleted than energised.

As a trainer, we believe movement should be supportive, not punishing.

- It should work with your hormones, not against them.
- It should leave you feeling nourished, not wiped out.

Whether it’s a walk, a strength session or rest, honouring where you’re at is powerful.
