Recognize how fitness culture and “athlete brain” influence a client’s motivations, training goals, interests, and health. 

Identify the anatomy and physiology of the core system, as well as common core and pelvic health considerations that pregnant and postpartum clients often experience. 

Draw inferences on which of the “P&PA Players” (breath, pressure, tension, positioning, movement) to adjust to accommodate an athlete’s symptoms, tendencies, and athletic goals. 

Select programming and exercise adjustments that would help athletes manage individualized symptoms and considerations in their training during seasons of pregnancy and postpartum.
