Your pelvic floor doesn’t work in isolation.

It works as part of a pressure-management system alongside your diaphragm, abdominal wall and surrounding musculature.

As you breathe, brace and lift, pressure changes.

And your pelvic floor needs to be able to respond to those changes.

This is why pelvic floor coaching isn’t as simple as:

“Do more kegels”
“Always exhale on exertion”
“Never brace”
“Keep your core switched on”

Different tasks require different strategies - and different clients may require different strategies too.

The goal is to understand how the system works together, then teach your client how to coordinate breathing, pressure and pelvic floor function for the task in front of them.

This month inside the Women’s Coach Collective, I’m diving into the latest evidence in our 2026 Pelvic Floor in Exercise & Sport Research Update.

We’ll unpack what the research actually says and most importantly, what it means for you as a coach.

Pelvic floor muscle training isn’t just about doing endless kegels.

It’s made up of skeletal muscle that requires progressive overload, adequate recovery, coordination and specificity - just like any other muscle you train.

However, the pelvic floor isn’t just muscle - it’s also made up of ligaments, fascia and connective tissue which actually play more of a role than previously thought.

This month inside the Women’s Coach Collective we’ve got the 2026 Pelvic Floor in Exercise & Sport Research Update, where we’ll be covering:

🌸 Active vs passive structures
🌸 SUI & prolapse
🌸 Loading & fatigue
🌸 Running & impact
🌸 Powerlifting studies
🌸 Perimenopause & menopause symptoms
🌸 Hypermobility & pelvic pain
🌸 Coaching strategies
🌸 When to refer

Leaking during lifting is common. But how much is actually improved by health professionals? 👉🏼

Coaches hear these three complaints constantly. The problem is that “weak pelvic floor” has become the default answer for all of them, and that assumption misses other structures involved in continence 👉🏼

The pelvic floor is one player in a system that includes the diaphragm, fascia, deep abdominals, rib cage, lower limb, and nervous system 👉🏼

A pelvic floor can be overactive, fatigued, have increased fascial movement, or not be coordinating well with the rest of the system 👉🏼

Intra-abdominal pressure increases with every lift. That is not a problem in itself. The goal is a pelvic floor that can manage the pressure being created, at the load and volume being used 👉🏼

Excessive bearing down, loads beyond current capacity, volume that has progressed too quickly, fatigue over the day and fascia with extra movement can all contribute to leakage 👉🏼

Managing load throughout the day and timing of loading may be more important as fatigue can increase movement as the pelvic floor drops throughout the day 👉🏼

Most of what coaches can do here lives in the programming. Load, volume, movement quality, breathing strategy, education and impact level are all within scope 👉🏼

You do not need to diagnose the cause. You do need to recognise that leaking is not something clients should simply accept. If symptoms persist or affect quality of life, a pelvic health physiotherapist is the right referral 👉🏼

The question “is her pelvic floor weak?” closes down the clinical picture before you have even started. Asking whether this is a strength, coordination, pressure, load or even passive structure issue issue opens it up and leads to far better outcomes 👉🏼

This months Masterclass inside the Women’s Coach Collective is a 2026 pelvic floor research update in exercise and sport.

Every step your client takes requires the calves to control force, balance, and propulsion.

At the same time, the pelvic floor is helping manage load, pressure, and stability.

So if your client has pelvic floor symptoms, assess and address:

Loading
Ankle mobility
Calf strength

Along with other relevant pressure management strategies that we’ll be reviewing this month inside the Women’s Coach Collective 2026 Pelvic Floor in Exercise Research Update.

Proprioception gets called a lot of things 👇🏼

Stability
Motor control
Coordination

And I think it’s highly misunderstood in the coaching space

Proprioception ≠ just standing on one leg on a bosu ball

It’s your ability to sense where your body is and how it’s moving in space. And we can train it in multiple ways 👇🏼

➡️ Joint position awareness
➡️ Pressure + contact
➡️ Force + load
➡️ Balance + postural control
➡️ Movement + coordination
➡️ Reactive tasks

The clearer sensory information we can give the brain, the better the motor output will be.

I’m dropping a brand new Movement Preparation short course inside the Women’s Coach Collective this month (along with our 2026 Pelvic Floor Research Update).

Bladder leakage ≠ automatically a “weak” pelvic floor. 💦

Especially when we’re talking about leakage during running, jumping or lifting.

Current research suggests continence during exercise is influenced by more than pelvic floor muscle strength alone.

Think:
👉🏼 Pressure management + load demands
👉🏼 Timing + coordination of the pelvic floor
👉🏼 Bladder neck/urethral support
👉🏼 Passive connective tissue + fascial support
👉🏼 Pelvic organ movement under impact
👉🏼 Individual anatomy + tissue properties

Which is why “just do more Kegels” isn’t always the answer.

We need to understand why someone is leaking, what happens under load, and what their system actually needs.

Pelvic floor function > pelvic floor strength.
