À propos de cet audio
In this episode of the Femme FC Podcast, Nicole speaks with Copa, physical therapist for the Houston Dash, about the real-world process of returning elite footballers to performance after pregnancy. Copa shares how she developed a postpartum RTP framework after managing three pro-player cases back-to-back, and what clinicians can do, especially in resource-limited women's sport settings, to support postpartum athletes safely and confidently.
Topics include:
-
Early postpartum priorities and tissue healing considerations
-
Pelvic floor cueing and progression into impact, sprinting, and sport demands
-
Structuring return to run + strength training, and why recovery drives decisions
-
Progressing workload week to week (when to repeat, when to push)
-
Readiness for team training, contact exposure, and match minutes using key metrics
-
The overlooked essentials: fueling demands (including breastfeeding), fatigue, and long-term monitoring
