If you’ve ever left your kid’s game more sore than they are… this episode is for you.

Between hard bleachers, hauling all the gear, and sitting in awkward positions for hours, it’s no surprise so many moms deal with back pain after sports days. But the good news? You don’t need more time, more workouts, or a total routine overhaul to feel better.

In this episode, I’m walking you through simple, realistic ergonomic tweaks that can make a huge difference—starting at your next game.

These are the exact kinds of “small hinges that swing big doors” changes I teach inside my coaching 🤍

🎯 What You’ll Learn:

How to set up your seat to support your back (even on bleachers)
Why chair height + lumbar support matters more than you think
The best way to reduce strain from carrying sports gear
How to use what you already have (wagons, blankets, bags) more strategically
Simple ways to move more and sit less during games
Easy in-seat exercises to relieve tension while you watch
