My Real Review of the Mom Bod MakeOver Program

EDIT 12/4/23: This program I reviewed is no longer available as a stand-alone product. However, because I believe in the Memo Method that Gretchen Gegg created, and would recommend her program to anyone, I am going to leave this post published. Please check out her MIMO METHOD HERE for more info if the "Mom Bod Makeover" sounds like a fit for you!

-----------------------------------

8 years after my first baby, and 3 years after my third and final baby, I finally found a program that showed me HOW to get rid of that Mommy tummy pooch!

Hi. In case you haven't read my blog before, I'm Sarah. I have a BFA in Ballet, spent 10 years dancing professionally with various contemporary/modern dance companies and have been certified in Pilates since 2004. I have 3 kids and was blessed to have 3 healthy pregnancies and stayed pretty consistent with my fitness throughout them all.

Fit Mom with a Pooch (and I don't mean a puppy dog)

Despite all these positives, 2 years after the birth of my last baby I was still struggling to connect my abdominal separation, Diastasis Recti, and by the time he turned 3 I was still working on flattening that last bit of mommy tummy pooch. You know, that bit of belly that makes people look twice and want to ask (and occasionally they DID ask) if I'm expecting again....nope. That's just leftover baby bulge folks!

Then my friend Gretchen released her new program, The Mom Bod Makeover.

Of course, I signed up. I was skeptical though. I've known Gretchen for years, she's fantastic. But I'm also a fitness professional, I know how to work out, what was I missing? Could this really help?

The Missing Piece

After the first week, I was sold. If I had been able to participate in this program after each baby, I would NOT have struggled with Diastasis Recti for months or years post-birth, I would have regained core strength faster, and more importantly, core and pelvic floor function!

"Designed for postpartum moms. Whether you had a baby 4 weeks ago or 40 years ago, THIS course can help you stop peeing your pants, lose the belly pooch and alleviate lower back pain"

Gretchen Gegg, creator of The Mom Bod Makeover

This is it, Moms! This is what you've been missing. Whether you've just had one baby or a dozen, whether you're 6 months post-partum, 6 years or just pregnant now, YOU NEED THIS PROGRAM!

Why this program is great

Things no one hardly anyone else talks about that Gretchen addresses in the Mom Bod Makeover:

• Diastasis Recti
• Core and pelvic floor function
• Breathing
• Integrating the habit of breath and core function throughout your day
• Mindset!

Gretchen knows her stuff. She has a special gift helping people, especially Moms, who struggle with feeling overwhelmed by all the health and fitness information that is out there.

She has over 20 years of experience in the fitness industry, which includes 10 years of working in higher education. Check out the Mom Bod Makeover page for all her qualifications. (But don't pay full price! Purchase with my special coupon code: SARAH, to save 20%)

Below are Gretchen's own before and afters, using her own program. The first is just 1 month post-partum, the final photo after completing her own 12-week program.

I particularly love Gretchen because her style is purposefully accessible to all abilities. If you've struggled with your health or injuries, you'll be able to start any of her programs by sitting in your chair or on a couch and getting moving. She presents varied modifications so that if you're a fitness professional (like me) you will still be able to challenge yourself.

What this program is

Gretchen is so experienced and talented in so many different fitness styles, she seamlessly blends them together. This program is influenced by Cardio, HIIT, Yoga, Pilates, and Boxing styles of fitness, yet totally unique with Gretchens' touch.

Perks of the 12-week program:

1. It's a self-paced program. Flexibility to repeat phases, lessons, or weeks until you feel you are ready to progress.
2. Access the full program immediately, online, and have access to any future updates.
3. Workout calendar for each of the 3 phases to keep you on track
4. arranged in 3 phases, consisting of 4 lessons in each phase
5. Includes 3 Core workouts, 5 HIIT workouts, 4 Fit workouts, and 3 Flow workouts, all video follow along instructed by Gretchen.
6. Self-Care for Moms Module
7. The RAMP Method of Behaviour Change module
8. Stress Less Module
9. a slew of BONUS materials, covering the 4 Pillars of a Healthy Lifestyle, Breastfeeding, Diastasis Recti & C-section recovery, Overcoming Exercise Excuses and more!

Ok, but did I get paid to say this?

This is not a sponsored post, I actually paid for this program! I only became an affiliate when I realized how fantastic the program is and MUCH NEEDED by so many Moms out there. I just cannot keep it to myself. Sign up. Follow Gretchen's instruction. You will not be disappointed!

The course is currently available for only $97 for lifetime access. So any future updates, add-ons, you will get! Sound good? Wait, it gets even better!

At the time of writing this post, I am on week 11 of the program. I have not taken my own before/afters, but I have felt the difference deep inside my abdominals, and noticed more muscle strength when exercising and less (really none!) lower back pain during the day. My mommy pooch is definitely smaller (have not been asked if I'm pregnant again lately) and I plan to update this post with my own photos when I get a chance to snap an after shot.

I highly recommend any Mom of any age checks out this program. Whether you have given birth 2 months, 2 years, or 20 years ago, you will benefit!
