"I got hyperemmesis gravidum which um is just like the most extreme morning sickness. Like I was basically on bed rest and didn't do any movement other than like getting up from my bed to the couch for like 9 months."
Ashley, four months postpartum, says hyperemesis gravidarum left her largely immobilised during pregnancy and she now feels weak and unsure how to return to training safely. Sal Di Stefano recommends starting with a low-intensity beginner programme (‘MAPS Starter’), warning against pushing too hard and saying it can take one to two years for many mothers to feel fully ‘back’ to normal.
