Low Impact, High Intensity

When I was pregnant with my son Carson I developed pretty severe sciatica pain in my 2nd trimester. I was told by the Dr.'s that it was the way he was sitting inside there, pinching a nerve and that it would go away after he was born.

It never did. 

I would have time periods when it wasn't as bad, then I would have flair ups where it was painful to just lay down on that side of my back/side. I would get numbness on that side of my body and sharp shooting pains. Fast forward to when I was pregnant with my daughter it got worse again, it would be so bad some days I dreaded walking. I did ice, stretched.. nothing seemed to work. 

It was worth it though, I would take that pain any day of the week for my kiddos. :)

It wasn't until earlier this year that I really notice that my flair ups were farther in between. I was eating clean, and doing Piyo 4-5 days a week. It was with the low impact, high intensity moves that I was able to gain flexibility, strength the muscles around my sciatic nerves and manage my flair ups.
