When Exercise Doesn’t Feel the Way It Used To

Leaking, pelvic pressure, core weakness, discomfort or uncertainty about exercise can make it difficult to know what your body needs.

Maybe you are:

  • Pregnant and want to keep moving confidently

  • Rebuilding your strength postpartum

  • Noticing changes during perimenopause or menopause

  • Moving forward after pelvic floor physiotherapy

  • Returning to exercise after pain or injury

  • Unsure how to strengthen your core or pelvic floor safely

Generic workouts do not always consider your symptoms, stage of life or movement history.

One-on-one personal training gives you a plan designed for your body—so you can stop second-guessing every movement and start building strength with confidence.

Pelvic Floor and Core Support Through Every Stage

Your pelvic floor and core needs can change throughout your life.

Pregnancy, birth, hormonal changes, injury and aging can all affect how your body feels and responds to exercise.

Your sessions will consider your pelvic floor, core, breathing, posture, symptoms and personal goals. We will begin where you are and build from there.

Together, we can work on:

  • Pelvic floor and core coordination

  • Whole-body strength

  • Breathing and pressure management

  • Balance, stability and posture

  • Exercising with leaking, pressure or discomfort

  • Returning to exercise after injury or rehabilitation

  • Building confidence to exercise independently

This is not a one-size-fits-all workout. It is personal training designed around you.

Bridging the Gap Between Physiotherapy and Exercise

Knowing which exercises to do is one thing. Feeling confident doing and progressing them is another.

Krystal can work alongside your Essential Physio practitioner while you are receiving treatment or support you as your next step after discharge.

Your sessions can help you apply what you are learning in treatment to strength training, everyday movement and the activities you want to return to.

You do not need to wait until physiotherapy is finished to begin.

Who Am I

I’m Krystal Schouten, your Pelvic Floor Fitness Specialist and founder of Fitness Reset in Brantford and for over 10 years I’ve helped postpartum women rebuild their core strength, support their pelvic floor, and step back into movement feeling strong and capable.

I work alongside pelvic floor physiotherapists and have been a guest speaker at dozens of women’s health events across Brantford and surrounding communities. I’m also the host of Potty Talk — a podcast where we break the stigma around pelvic floor health.

I understand that pelvic floor concerns can feel personal and vulnerable. My goal is to create a comfortable, supportive environment where there is no such thing as too much information.

You will leave your sessions understanding your body, knowing why you are doing each exercise and feeling more confident about moving forward.

This is where you train with intention. This is where you build confidence. This is where you become the best version of YOU!

Real Women. Real Results.

  • Krystal’s body reset has changed the way I feel about working out.  From wanting to strengthen my pelvic floor and reset after baby to full on strength training and enjoying every minute of it!  She has so many workouts and different moves I never get bored and working out has gone from a chore to a necessity in my daily life.  I’ve gained so much energy and strength and truly look forward to my morning workouts at home.  The positive reinforcement from her and the other members is a great cheer squad type motivation. Can’t recommend her program enough!

  • Krystal is an absolutely amazing coach! She's incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to the pelvic floor and all the surrounding muscles we tend to overlook in our daily lives. I really appreciate the way she explains not just the what, but the why behind each movement or exercise. You can tell she truly understands how the body works and how to strengthen it in a way that’s safe, effective, and empowering.

    If you’re looking for someone who can guide you with compassion, clarity, and confidence, Krystal is it. I’ve learned so much from her already!

    – Ashley

  • Before I met Krystal, I didn’t know much about pelvic floor health. I often felt alone, confused about what was happening in my body, and I adjusted my life to avoid situations where I would leak. That meant missing out on most things I loved - all I kept hearing was that this was normal after having children. Unfortunately not knowing led to further issues. Working with Krystal changed everything. Through her workshop and Body Reset Method, I learned how the pelvic floor, diaphragm, and my whole body work together. The breathing techniques and release methods she taught me were absolute game changers. Not only did my leaking significantly improve, but I also felt strong, supported, and prepared going into surgery — something I never imagined feeling confident about.

  • I had the pleasure of also being part of the Body Reset Method which is a community of women rebuilding strength in their pelvic floors. This membership is a community of women supporting women toward feeling confident and comfortable within themselves. The amount of knowledge and progressive skill building from breathing exercises to complete workouts is such an amazing tool to have. Krystal is dedicated and supports her clients every step of the way. Overall finding Krystal and her programs gave me my sense of self back and provided me with so much knowledge to help heal my postpartum body by building physical, mental and pelvic floor strength. I highly recommend Krystal’s programs to anyone that has concerns regarding their pelvic health, leaks or looking to build strength and a strong sense of community.

  • The Body Reset Method was exactly what I needed in my life after sustaining a back injury from simply bending over to wipe my dogs paws 2 years ago-I have always worked out and considered myself in decent shape-little did I know I was weaker than I thought —I was an "all or nothing, no pain-no gain" mindset for my entire life, which I found in my 40's to be a detriment to my body- I would plow through workouts and it wasn't until the Body Reset Method that I realized that I had never been doing a squat or a lunge properly ever! This program literally helped me heal from the inside out, improving my posture, core strength and pelvic floor -I have never felt so much glute engagement in my life and love how this program has improved my daily function — I lift a laundry basket up with my glutes instead of my back now and have become so much more aware and cognizant of my everyday movements —Krystal is the best!
