Designing an effective and safe fitness program for postpartum women requires a delicate balance of strength training, cardiovascular fitness, and specialized considerations. Today, we're exploring how RxBot, our AI coaching assistant, rises to this challenge by creating a tailored program for a postpartum client.

Client Scenario: Postpartum Woman Returning to Fitness

Our client is a postpartum woman looking to regain strength and fitness safely after childbirth. She needs a program that addresses the unique challenges of postpartum recovery while gradually building overall fitness.

Coach Inputs

Here's what we told RxBot:

• Training days: Monday, Wednesday, Friday

• Program duration: 4 weeks, starting September 16, 2024

• Goals: Build strength, improve aerobic base

• Special considerations:

  • Full-body resistance training on all three days

  • Low-impact, safe aerobic exercises

  • 20-30 minute aerobic session after Wednesday's strength training

  • Focus on postpartum-specific needs and safety

RxBot In Action

We prompted RxBot to design a strength training program tailored for postpartum women, including safe, low-impact aerobic exercises, and ensuring the program supports the health and fitness of postnatal women.

RxBot's Program Summary

RxBot designed a comprehensive 4-week program tailored for our postpartum client:

"This 4-week program designed for the client's training on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday focuses on strength training biased for postpartum women with safe, low-impact aerobic exercises planned post-resistance training on Wednesday. The client's assessment data, priorities, and capabilities have driven the exercise selection and structuring. Following the OPEX Knowledge Base guidelines, the resistance training emphasizes improving full-body strength with a focus on single-arm push exercises, upper body mobility, core isometrics, and hip mobility, while the aerobic component aims to develop an aerobic base using low-impact exercises suitable for postnatal clients."

Program Overview

Here's a snapshot of how RxBot structured the weekly training:

• Monday: Full-body resistance training with emphasis on postpartum recovery

• Wednesday: Full-body resistance training followed by 20-30 minutes of low-impact aerobic exercise

• Friday: Full-body resistance training with focus on core and pelvic floor strength
