So these happened this week. I wasn’t planning on trying a bar MU this week. And I don’t have a plan on when I’ll try a ring MU either, but something in me said I think I can do one now so I did. Actually I did 7 total and I was SORE AF! Haha, I guess that’s what 9 months off of a movement will do to you.
Overall I’m super stoked with how my recovery has gone. I think staying as active as I did throughout the pregnancy really helped me. I really slowed down the most for the last 5 weeks of it and the first 7 weeks post partum, so probably about 12 weeks (almost 3 months) total I was doing pretty minimal weight and no gymnastics.
Now 14 weeks post partum I’ve deadlifted up to 185lbs, done a barbell workout with 85lbs, done rope climbs and butterfly pull-ups, and ran a mile and change multiple times. The only things left to try are double unders, kipping T2B, ring MU, and heavier lifts at some point. Again I have no real plan or timeline. I’ll get to them when I feel ready to!
