Sweat is one of the most recognised names in women's fitness, built on Kayla Itsines's BBG (Bikini Body Guide) platform, which has since expanded well beyond its original format. It has a large, active global community and does include a dedicated Post-Pregnancy program. Easy Peasy is something quite different: a smaller, NZ-made app built specifically for postnatal mums, with every movement track reviewed by NZ-registered women's-health and pelvic-floor physiotherapists.
If you're choosing between the two, this comparison covers what matters most after birth: how each app approaches your pelvic floor, whether they have physio-backed content, how long sessions run, and what each one's relationship is with your body and how it looks. We've also included a section on where Sweat genuinely wins, because an honest comparison serves you better than a one-sided one.
Pricing and features are accurate as of June 2026. Check each provider for current details.

Where Easy Peasy is different
Easy Peasy was built from the ground up for postnatal mums, not adapted from a general fitness platform. That distinction matters in ways you might not notice until you're actually using an app after birth.
Every track in Easy Peasy is reviewed by NZ-registered women's-health and pelvic-floor physiotherapists. That means the movements inside the app have been assessed specifically for early postpartum safety, not just general exercise safety. If you've had a C-section, diastasis recti, or pelvic floor weakness, the content has been built with you in mind.
Sessions run to around 15 minutes or less, which is a deliberate choice. A new mum with a baby, broken sleep, and an unpredictable day needs something she can actually complete. Sessions you can do during nap time, or while your baby plays on a mat next to you, have a much higher chance of becoming a real habit.
Easy Peasy has no weigh-ins, no before/after photos, no streak pressure, and no bounce-back language. The daily voice check-in is also something you won't find in Sweat: it's a moment to check in with how you're actually feeling, not just how many reps you completed.
Finally, Easy Peasy is made in Aotearoa, by and for NZ mums. The idiom, the care team terminology (your LMC, your midwife), and the cultural context are all NZ-specific.
When Sweat is the better choice
Sweat genuinely suits certain mums well, and it's worth being honest about that.
If you were training seriously before pregnancy and want to return to structured, progressive strength and cardio training as you move through recovery, Sweat's range of programs gives you a clear pathway. The Post-Pregnancy program provides a structured entry point, and the broader Sweat library means you have plenty to move into once you're ready for higher intensity.
If community matters to you, Sweat's global user base is large and active. The app has a social component that many women find motivating, particularly if they had an existing connection to BBG before having kids.
If you're someone who enjoys longer, more structured workouts and already has some equipment at home (bands, dumbbells), Sweat is designed with that in mind. Easy Peasy's no-equipment approach is a strength for many mums, but if you prefer weighted sessions, Sweat offers more variety there.
Common questions
Does Sweat have a postnatal program?
Yes. Sweat includes a 16-week Post-Pregnancy program from Kayla Itsines, which includes a foundational phase for women recovering from a C-section. It is one of the more complete postnatal offerings among mainstream fitness apps, though we could not confirm whether the content has been formally reviewed by a women's-health physiotherapist.
What is the main difference between Easy Peasy and Sweat?
Easy Peasy is built specifically for postnatal mums, with physio-reviewed content, sessions of around 15 minutes, no equipment, and a fully anti-scale philosophy. Sweat has a broader audience, longer sessions, and a community culture that is more performance and aesthetics-oriented. Easy Peasy is also made in Aotearoa, for NZ mums specifically.
Is Easy Peasy available now?
Easy Peasy is currently in early access and not yet publicly launched. You can join the waitlist to be among the first to access it when it opens. Pricing will be announced at launch.
Is Sweat suitable after a C-section?
Sweat's Post-Pregnancy program includes a foundational phase for C-section recovery, which is a positive feature. However, before starting any program after a C-section, always check with your midwife, GP, or LMC, as every birth and recovery is different. Easy Peasy is designed with C-section recovery in mind across all its content.
