Not all exercise is created equal... especially when it comes to postpartum exercise. When you have a weak core, diastasis recti, incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, or postpartum injuries that just won't seem to resolve themselves, your body is already dealing enough stress, and quite literally too much pressure. If you’re ready to transform your body the right way and feel confident again, you need an exercise program that’s designed specifically to heal and rebuild your body (not burn and shred).
I have been training and coaching moms for over 17 years, and I see four themes that keep popping up along the way.
Restore My Core program works through these four themes, systematically introducing you to the most important concepts I believe every mom should know about; I also show you how to use them for your personal success.
These are the four "foundations" for how to get REAL results with the Restore My Core Program....
Yes! I will tell you exactly what to do and when to do it. I will also show how to do it with video demonstrations and extra coaching cues.
To change for good you need to know “What’s Next” after you complete an exercise program.
"Victoria's Restore My Core program is a fantastic program for c-section moms who want to slowly and safely ease back into movement while learning valuable new information. From core breathing to strength training movements, she has video demonstrations as well as quick-to-reply feedback if you have questions. The downloadable PDF has more than just workout programs listed, it is a HUGE source of information about c-sections and your body (things as a nurse I was not very familiar with!) as well as nutrition and supplement guidance if you want. Any new or former c-section mom would benefit, I am so pleased with my results I've had so far and look forward to completing!" - Danielle L.
I’m Victoria, and I’m the founder of Fit To Her Core.
I help moms regain their core and pelvic floor fitness, get rid of the 'mommy pooch', and feel more at home in their bodies, so they can return to pre-baby fitness activities (and life!) without worrying about hurting or peeing themselves.
I have a Master's Degree in Exercise and Sports Sciences, I am certified as a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) through the NSCA, a USAW Sports Performance Coach, a Precision Nutrition Level 1 Coach, a Prenatal and Postnatal Corrective Exercise Specialist, and I am also certified as a CrossFit Level 1 Trainer.
I started working with expecting and new moms 17-plus years ago, while completing my master’s degree in Exercise and Sports Sciences.
I’m also a mom myself to three kids, two delivered via C-section and one VBAC, so I’ve been where you are right now. I want you to know that I get you and understand many of the same struggles that you’re going through with your body right now because I’ve been through many of the same as well:
So your program is amazing. My diastis went from a little over a 3 to a little over a 1. I lost 2.25” in my waist and 1.25” in my hips.
"The workouts have been great and I'm really happy with the progress I've seen! The connective issue is feeling taut and the gap is feeling shallow and smaller."
"I really enjoyed this program. It has put all the conflicting information about postnatal recover and exercises in one easy to understand format and the exercises where very good to follow. I was very self conscious as I was still asked in the supermarket when my baby was due even though he was already a few months old. With this program, I got my self-confidence back and am now working even harder on loosing those extra kilos that I gained over my two pregnancies."
"Victoria is on top of her game with restore my core. Stacked full of info and support you will gain at the minimum some super handy tips to improve new mommy life and maximum and hot body :D I recommend it!"
"Restore My Core has totally helped me with proper breathing while strength training and Victoria's explanation in the video tutorials is very easy to understand and follow. She truly cares about helping women strengthen their core postpartum. I just wish she lived in Pa. so I could see her for personal training😊" - Lynn D.
"I am really grateful to Victoria and the Restore My Core Program. She really helped educate me so I could get back to the things I love without further stress on my body. I’ve seen great improvements already in my abdominals and pelvic floor strength. I would highly recommend her program."
"Thank you so much for your help and insight! Really appreciate you genuinely helping me out. It’s always a little nerve racking to purchase programs from trainers/professionals online knowing it’s a gamble if the professional will be helpful on an individual level. So thank you!"
"Thank you for this program and for sharing your passion. I didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I have, feel as amazing as I have, or experience the changes that happened to my mind and body. I finally have control over my body again and because of this program the recovery was much easier and faster than I imagine it would have been without. I'm excited to continue working with you."
"The Restore My Core program was beyond what I had expected. Victoria was encouraging and checked in on everyone regularly, helping to keep us motivated. She was always there to help with questions and concerns. At the end of the 4 weeks I have better results than I had imagined and am excited to continue working with her to keep my body feeling strong and healthy. I will definitely be doing this program again when I have another child!"
""I had a great experience with the Restore My Core Program. After the birth of my second child, I was feeling physically really out of sorts. The program got me back on the right track and now I am prepared to reintroduce some modified workouts into my routine. I feel confident that I will be able to move forward safely. Thanks Victoria!"

Depending on how you are feeling, you can typically start within 2-3 weeks after either type of delivery (vaginal or C-section). Restore My Core is suitable for both vaginal and C-section births.
Once you get the hang of the routine, it should take you about 20-30 minutes per day. Your goal is to get the routine done every day, if possible.
Yes. All of the exercises in each phase are suitable for pelvic organ prolapse. You will want to double check with your women's health/pelvic floor physical therapist to ensure that they are appropriate for your specific situation and grade of prolapse.
Absolutely! I will want you to make sure that you incorporate it into your current routine, as well as do it as a form of recovery exercise on your non-training days.
Yes! Low to moderate intensity cardio, but high intensity cardio should be avoided until you heal your core and pelvic floor.
