Fusion Hack: Mastering a Flat Core With Dove Putterman
Hey there, beautiful souls! If you tuned into Part 1 of our powerful chat with Dr. Dove Putterman, you already know this woman is an absolute force—a mom of five (yes, including triplets!), a dental surgeon, an IFBB pro, and a low pressure fitness coach. In this continuation, Jami, Greg, and Dr. Dove dive even deeper into what it really means to engage your core, protect your pelvic floor, and walk through life (and the stage) with intention, strength, and grace.
This isn’t just a conversation for moms or bodybuilders—it’s for anyone with a body who wants to live, lift, and move better.
Key Takeaways from the Episode
Low Pressure Fitness (LPF) is a Game-Changer
LPF isn’t just about looking stage-ready—it’s about retraining your breath, posture, and pressure systems to heal from the inside out. Dr. Dove explains how it supports not just aesthetics, but core function, pelvic health, and even recovery from childbirth or surgery.The Core is More Than Abs
This episode unpacks the misunderstood concept of "core control." It’s not just about visible abs, but learning to engage the transverse abdominis, obliques, and pelvic floor. As Greg says, what shows up in your workouts and everyday life starts with how you brace your core.Transitions Matter More Than You Think
Dr. Dove shares a golden insight: most athletes lose core control during transitions—not during poses, but between them. That moment of inhalation or distraction can reveal instability. Mastery is built in the moments no one is watching.This Work is for Every Body
Incontinence, core disconnect, and posture challenges aren't just postpartum issues—they affect men, non-moms, and athletes across the board. LPF can help prevent prolapse symptoms, improve back pain, and support overall strength, regardless of gender or age.Consistency and Awareness Are Everything
The magic of LPF lies in the daily practice—not just the 10-minute morning session, but in how you breathe while cooking, walking, working, or even standing in the OR. Building that core awareness all day long is where transformation happens.
