25. What to Do When You Fall Behind on Workouts (Without Starting Over)
Missed a few workouts and feeling like you’ve lost all your progress? You’re not alone — and you’re not off track. In this episode of The Vibrantly You® Podcast, Meg and Caitlin dive into one of the most relatable fitness struggles: what to do when you fall behind on workouts, especially in pregnancy, postpartum, or full-blown mom life.
We’re talking about how to shift your mindset, ditch perfectionism, and build a workout routine that’s flexible, sustainable, and actually fits your current season of life. From defining your minimum effective dose to practical tips like front-loading your week or committing to just 10 minutes of movement, you’ll leave this episode with real strategies to stay consistent — no guilt, no “starting over” required.
What we cover:
- Why rigid workout plans don’t work for real-life moms
- How to reframe setbacks and rebuild momentum
- The truth about postpartum workout expectations
- Practical strategies for consistency (even when time is limited)
- Why short workouts still count — and how to make them work for you
Whether you’re newly postpartum, in the thick of toddler chaos, or just getting back into a routine — this episode will remind you that progress is still possible (even when it's imperfect).
