Amal talks about her experience of burnout from overexercising, and how commonplace this is in the fitness world. For Amal, this happened whilst she was training to become a doctor and is one of the reasons why she spends her career spreading the important message of rest and recovery as a sports exercise clinician. Amal also talks about why she co founded Umi Health, as she experienced pelvic floor dysfunction following her pregnancy. She is passionate about supporting women with the knowledge and tools to build core, pelvic floor and functional strength for life. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
