I wish I found your channel sooner! I’m six months pp and had a lot of pelvic floor weakness after a perineal tear from birth. That’s been healing well and I’m happy to have found your channel to continue to heal and strengthen my core and pelvic floor!
I have a 3-4 finger gap after my second son. He's now 2 months. Im so grateful for your videos, I've done your videos while pregnant and now PP. They help heal and stay fit safely. Thank you!!
My baby is 9 months old now, just started pelvic floor therapy last week to heal my gap. It was 3 fingers when I was pregnant and went down to 2 fingers postpartum, so now I'm working to close it up, feeling hopeful because of your videos! Feels good to move again and do something for myself :)
Thank you for these videos. I’ve been doing them since I was 6 weeks pp. Now I’m 22 weeks pp (5 mos) and my 3 finger gap has healed! I’m still very cautious as I don’t want to open the gap again so I plan to continue doing these exercises until my baby is a year old. These work ladies!
@@daizydoll6202 try them! Do one video at a time for a week or mix it up. Just watch them and try what you like. There’s no specific formula. You can do it, mama!
I am very glad that I found your channel. After my third pregnancy, I had four fingers gap. I've been practicing with you for a month now and I can see an improvement. Currently only 1.5 fingers gap. Hugs and greetings😘
So glad to find these. My 4th (and last) baby is 4 months old. This is the first time I've really sought out resources like this. I've downloaded the DR guide and do them before I go to bed.
I found your channel when I first found out I was pregnant. I used all your pregnancy workouts throughout my pregnancy. I am 4 weeks pp and I am loving your pp workouts as well! Thank you so much for these wonderful videos and helping me through pregnancy and pp!
Hey! I am 7 months postpartum. I have DR about 2.5 fingers... I love your videos best compare to others. And your voice is such therapeutic! I hope my DR can heal soon after watching your videos.
❤❤❤ I have been using your channel since I started my pregnancy and now baby is 9 months. I didn't know I had a small DR but these videos have really helped me heal that and get back to my pre pregnancy shape. I had a really good pregnancy and birth as well and a lot of that has todo with what I've learned here. I've told everyone who asks about this channel. Thank you ❤
Back here after baby number two 😊 9 weeks postpartum and ready to heal and tone 💪 I'll be 'seeing' alot of you over the next few months Jess (and beyond) 🤩 I've been doing your workouts since my daughter Zoey was born two and half years ago, and just love them 😊
I was practicing with your videos during my whole pregnancy, now my baby boy is 1,5 month and here I am with you again! Thanks a lot for an amazing mission you have.
In 5 months postpartum with my 3rd baby. I have a 3-4 finger gap. And I am beyond thrilled to say I thst I am not only coherent in sweat after this but my ab muscles actually feel like they did something! I haven't been ae to feel those muscles since before my second. Omg. Incredible. And I did all of the easiest variations 😊
I love this workout 10mins is perfect for me, I have may first baby and he is 3 months old now and finally I started my diastasis recti exercise to tightening my tummy, thanks for sharing your work out xoxo.
Big thank u! Yeah... i took awhile to get organized to get here. 5th baby, 7yrs old. 2 natural 2 Csections (1 set of twins) If i eat bloating foods it gets worse. 😋 looking fwd to being confident in my body again. Big win was when i discovered that i can fight a craving by waiting out 20min or so. I tend to b on the animic side so, i know, i need aminos/protein. Helps to get proper nutrion.
I'm so thankful for your videos! I exercised with the pregnancy ones and now my baby is 6 weeks old and I've been cleared to work out again. Diastasis recti is my first target!
Thank u soo much for ur work! My girl is 4 month today and my big boy 4 years :) working with your video for 4 week and I'm feelin' so much better! Thank you again from Germany :)
This exercises are great, actually they helped me so much. I love everything you do. My baby is almost 4 months old but i feel stronger everyday. Thank u very much ❤
Baby is 4 months old at the moment, just wanted to mention how grateful I've been for your videos both for keeping fit in pregnancy and for recovering postpartum! I was so lucky not to have any pregnancy aches and pains and I think prenatal yoga played a big part in that... I had no idea what I was doing without your help with that! Thank you :)
Soo glad I found your channel! I don't have DR, but I'm still struggling with my core strength 8 months postpartum. I love how simple & effective your workouts are. Keep up the great work, mamas xo
I adore your videos. I followed them during my last trimester almost daily and now 10 weeks post partum. Have been doing since 6 weeks postpartum. I had 4 cm DR after birth, down to 3 at 6 weeks and will let you know how I go at my assessment this Wednesday. However it’s so reassuring that your videos are full of the exercises my physio has prescribed for DR! Will keep you posted on my progress ❤️
Hi! My babies are 10, 7, and 4, and I’ve never really done much exercise to heal my diastasis until now. I don’t have a very wide one, but it’s deep. I just found your exercises about two weeks ago, but I already feel stronger. Thank you so much!
Just a quick update: my gap is only one finger now and it has become much more shallow. The connective tissue doesn’t feel so squishy. I used to think I could almost feel my backbone from the front-an exaggeration, but it was seriously deep. Now my fingers only sink in just past the first knuckle. My core feels so much stronger and I feel more confident about keeping it this way. These exercises have been amazing. I had people tell me my diastasis wasn’t a big deal, (except that I felt like they were wrong because something just didn’t feel right) or that I just needed to do some crunches, which I knew wasn’t the answer. For years I couldn’t find anyone that could help. Jessica, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and help. It has seriously changed my life. Thank you! ❤️
@@daronandchristinanelson7170 This gives me hope! My girls are 12 and 8 years old...I never thought I could fix my diastasis except with surgery. I am so happy to know that even after so many years, there are exercises that can heal this issue. Thank you for your comment!
Thank you so much! Have wanted to workout and heal my dr since baby was born two weeks ago but scared to try a random program and never sure if source was trustworthy. These are phenomenal! On day three and so excited to be committed to this
My baby is 3 years old and I realized I had distasis recti after I just lost 64lbs and doing a lot of core workout and some of the wrong core workouts because I didn’t know I had it 😭. I have 1-2 finger gap 😭 I wish I would have known sooner, I had so many ab spasms that stopped after I strengthened my core. Today is my first day doing distasis recti workouts. I’m hoping it will get better in even a few months.
My baby is 2 weeks old and this video (plus your yoga videos) have been so helpful to VERY carefully start bringing some movement back into my day. Thank you!
Your videos have been so helpful. My Diastasis is pretty much healed (about 1 finger) and this is perfect moderate core exercise while I transition to regular core exercise to bring in my little leftover bump. Baby is 2 now so I’m ready to really get strong again. Thanks for putting these together!
Hi Leah! That's great you are down to 1 finger :) Our babies must be similar age. My baby turned 2 in April..it goes so fast! Thanks for taking the time to comment :) Have a great weekend!
This was great! My baby girl will be 2 months in 3 days and I already feel my gap from pregnancy is improving. Been slowly getting back into exercise over the last month
My second baby is 3 mo old. I fortunately don't have significant diastasis. Thank you for your videos. I've been doing your postpartum workout challenge as well as other videos for the last couple of weeks. I'm feeling much stronger and coordinated and more importantly it's helping me feel better about my self mentally.
I love your videos SO MUCH! I use them for almost all of my exercise! I absolutely wouldn't have as much success without you. I'm hoping to re-lose some weight and I wouldn't know where to start! Thank you so much. ❤❤❤
@@PregnancyandPostpartumTV thank you! I wish I could like the video every time I watched it. 😆 I went from 3 fingers to 1 using supportive posture from a book on diastasis, but I really, really, REALLY want to get that last finger closed up. ✌
Found your videos 11 months postpartum after my second baby. I only have a one finger gap, but I am hoping to heal properly and to also work on reducing my baby tummy. My two year old also loves doing these videos with me for “mommy workout time”!
I’m 7 weeks PP, started with 4-5finger diastases, now about 3 without specific exercises but have strained myself unintentionally at the gym with chest workouts and now looking for good breathing exercises….I seem to be super weak in the core currently and am looking forward to getting stronger again!
love this workout, started doing it 2nd day now. its quick and effective. love your DR videos. will be doing the others as well and mix it up. cant wait for my DR to close.Thank You. :)
Wow you really do read all the comments, mad respect to you. Your workouts are great if you dont own any weights or if your regular pilates/ yoga routines slowly get boring or repetitive. I do your workouts twice a week and theyre such a nice experience once you get the flow of them. Thank you for your amazing work :3
Yes, I do try to read all my comments :) Thanks for the feedback! I'm so happy that it's helps mix up your routine to keep it from getting boring :) Is there anything that I could do to make them even better?
@@PregnancyandPostpartumTV I think your videos are really well made. The only nitpicks i would have are 1) some moments when the music doesnt fit the pace, but I know license free music is hard to work with and 2) Sometimes it would help us sports noobs when you remind us about obvious things we easily forget or oversee. For example, when you do a bird dog for 45 seconds - remind us to not let our belly hang loose midway. Because i catch some mistakes sneeking up on me quite often. I adore your passion, thanks for the sore muscles, its just what I needed :3
omg my second daughter now is 9 years old and the eldest is 13 yrs.old..i think it will take years to heal my diastasis 😢😢because I started this exercise just now 😢...I do lot of diet but my pouch tummy still bulky 😢I will try to do this exercise everyday..thanks for sharing..
Thank you so much for this video (and all your post-partum workout vids). I don't usually comment on youtube but after watching a few different ones I had to let you know that I love the way you lead these exercises. Really calm and clear and I really feel like they're making a different to my post-partum body (I had twins!) just wanted to say thank you so so much. X
My child is 6 years old already, and I never really properly focused on healing my diastesis recti. I hope it is not too late as I am planning to follow this routine daily for a month for now, and see if it can make a difference.
Thank you so much for doing this video, it is really helpful. It’s my first exercise since I gave birth and I found it easy to do. My baby is 3 weeks and 3 days today. Can’t wait to do all your postnatal workouts.
Thank you SO much for your awesome DR workout videos and freebees! As a first time Mom postpartum with slight DR I am so ready to get back in shape but afraid to make things worse. Your workouts are simple yet challenging in a good way! Your a such an inspiration. Hope to be back in shape like you one day! :))
Hi, it would be good to see videos on helping tendonitis in the wrists from holding the baby and also something around lower back and hips for long stints of sitting on the floor for baby groups. I struggle to get up after an hour on the floor as my hips seize up, they are still quite loose from the birth.
I love your videos! 8.5wks pp this is day 7 of doing your videos and my 3 finger gap is down to a 1! I know I still have a lot of work to do but at least I know it’s working 😊
Thank you for all these amazing videos regarding Diastasis Recti. I have been researching effective, slightly challenging exercise videos and havent found decent ones till I found your page! Excited to give them all a go!
@@PregnancyandPostpartumTV Totally appreciate all your time and efforts creating these videos. I've done the entire workout routine playlist and every video has something different to offer! I'm actually maintaining my exercise routine now because I'm enjoying it all so much. Thank you again! :)
@@PregnancyandPostpartumTV Also, if I really wanted to focus on just correcting my DR (currently about 3-3.5cm), would this video be the best one to do twice a day?
I'm 14 weeks pp, and my "mummy tummy" bulge is uncomfortable, I still have to wear maternity shorts and pants, and it makes me self-conscious. I'm not sure how to measure diastis recti, but I'm sure these exercises will help. My first child is almost 2 years, and my baby is three months old. I've been doing your videos since my 2nd trimester with my firstborn.
Hi Mommy, I gave normal birth to my baby last August 26, When can i possibly start postpartum yoga? Prior of my pregnancy I already practiced yoga everyday.
Hi Jessica, I followed your videos during my pregnancy. These are really helpful. Thank you so much for your guidance. Now I am 7 month postpartum, I started to do these excersice. How long would it take to heal my 2 fingers gap?
I'm 11 months postpartum and still have a DR/sagging tummy as I was weeks after birth. I've been doing your exercises a couple of times per week over the past year. Any suggestions?
These videos have really helped. I started after my baby and stopped when he waa bout 4months and did more cardio. However my baby is now nearly 3 and i fort id healed but not. I still have a finger gap from top of my naval through my lower abs. What wud b the best exercises or video u have loaded to follow?
I just found your channel! I have 4 kids and my youngest is 3. Still struggling with incontinence when I jump or run too much and hip and knee and shoulder pain. I only have 1 finger separation or less, but I feel my belly pooches a little. Just feeling desperate to solve these issues and trying to be willing to do these basic exercises and lay off the planks and such.
Really enjoy your workouts and find them helpful but I don’t know what to do…everytime I do a side plank I get coning. It only happens when I’m on my side. Any advice? Should I just avoid this exercise?
How often should you do diastasis recti exercises? I've been going for morning and evening, but is that too much? Can I add another one? would that help to close my gap sooner or am I overdoing it? also thank you! you are a life saver :)
4 months and a half pp and I just found out about DR. Was not familiair with this condition. Unfortunately, the obgyn (a woman!) who saw my recovery post partum (after c section) said it's normal when I asked how come my belly is still very loose although I have always been sporty and fit and had no belly nor fat. Was expecting a speedy recovery. The obgyn said it's normal and that her belly hasn't recovered not even after 2 years pp and that there is nothing to do. Did not mention DR, din not recommend to see a physio, basically encouraged me to do nothing and just wait. Even worse, she gave me the ok to start regular workout (which includes maaany exercises that should be avoided for DR) 🤦♀️ Luckily I found out recently about DR from a friend, used your video to check and I feel a 4 fingers gap. I am starting your exercises now, almost 5 months pp. I hope I am still in time to heal 💪
Do you know whether an umbilical hernia can also be healed wirh exercises like this? My son is 20 month old now and I have an umbilical hernia and a very small diastesis recta. I'm not overweight and have been doing yoga for many years. I don't understand why I got this and hope to avoid a surgery somehow. Would be great to get a response from you. Kind regards
Hi Jessica you look great! My LO is 8 months and my lower core is very weak but I made it through the video I am going to try to do one of your core work outs like 2 times a week and see if that helps thanks:)
Hello, my baby is just 11 days old today and I'm suffering from both Symphysis pubis dysfunction and diastis recti, what is the best time for me to do these exercises and can I just follow this workout if I'm having Symphysis pubis dysfunction?
I had a C-section 5 months ago and I was in pain... barely started doing exercises for my diastasis recti 2 months ago and haven't seen much improvement (not exercises from this channel lol). I'm feeling defeated.
Thank you for the videos im here trying to get my belly together 5 months post partum. How do I know if I have diastis recti.? I heard you mention coning What is coning?
I am 6 weeks postpartum and I have a five and a half finger gap and my abdominal separation is on a severe scale as per my physio. Have just started wearing the belly binder, but am getting mixed views from my friends that belly binders aren’t effective after 6 weeks postpartum and it may do more harm than good if I wear it now. Is that true? When do you recommend wearing a belly band and for how long?
Can you tell me what type of PP belly band you recommend for healing DR? I am already 6wks PP, is it too late for me to start now? Thank you & love your channel so much! Huge supporter ❤️
Hi, thank you for your super helpful videos. I'm wondering if you are maintining and engaged, tight core with pelvic floor lifted throughout the whole 10 reps of Side Plank and Half Frog (for example). Or are you releasing between each rep, and re-engaging when you exhale with each rep (like you do on the bent leg lowers)? Thanks again for all the useful infomation you put out!! ☺
I'm having a really hard time understanding how to properly breathe through these exercises. When you say engage the muscle I exhale and pull in. DO I inhale (for example with the hip dips) when I extend the hip?
Can I do these exercises during first trimester? I had diastasis recti after c section in july, 2020 that healed pretty well with these videos. I am noticing a very prominent umbilical hernia at this point that is uncomfortable.
My baby will b 4 months old by next week but I am unable to decrease my diasistis gap 😢. Although I do these exercises almost 6 days a week . Can u suggest me any diet changes
I wish I found your channel sooner! I’m six months pp and had a lot of pelvic floor weakness after a perineal tear from birth. That’s been healing well and I’m happy to have found your channel to continue to heal and strengthen my core and pelvic floor!

my baby is 8 weeks old! Im so grateful for these videos!! This is incredibly helpful!!
It is very useful because we can not workout a lot of time. 10 to 15 minutes are perfect. Thank you!
My baby is almost 4 months now! My core is finally healed, thank you Jessica!
Wow! 4 months! Already! Awesome job, Airlia!
Thank you for these videos. I’ve been doing them since I was 6 weeks pp. Now I’m 22 weeks pp (5 mos) and my 3 finger gap has healed! I’m still very cautious as I don’t want to open the gap again so I plan to continue doing these exercises until my baby is a year old. These work ladies!
Do you do additional exercises also? I have a 3 finger gap also and want it to heal!
Did you loose your mommy pooch as well?
I have a 4 finger gap pleas guide me which exercise should i do. There's a lot of videos on her channel i dont know where to begin.

I adore your passion, thanks for the sore muscles, its just what I needed :3
omg my second daughter now is 9 years old and the eldest is 13 yrs.old..i think it will take years to heal my diastasis 😢😢because I started this exercise just now 😢...I do lot of diet but my pouch tummy still bulky 😢I will try to do this exercise everyday..thanks for sharing..
Thank you so much for this video (and all your post-partum workout vids). I don't usually comment on youtube but after watching a few different ones I had to let you know that I love the way you lead these exercises. Really calm and clear and I really feel like they're making a different to my post-partum body (I had twins!) just wanted to say thank you so so much. X
Just did this yesterday✅ thanks😊
This is a great video! I’m going to do these everyday. My baby is 7 weeks old and I just started working out last week.
Awesome, thanks for this video! Gonna try and do this regularly. My baby is 2.5 months old.
I am very Thankful to you,I have just subscribed your channel. I am glad to find you . Your workouts are awesome not so high intensive.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
So happy you are enjoying! Thank you! 💞
Does this help if my third baby is now 3yrs old? I am small but i do have diastasis recti and would like to heal it
My child is 6 years old already, and I never really properly focused on healing my diastesis recti. I hope it is not too late as I am planning to follow this routine daily for a month for now, and see if it can make a difference.
Thank you so much for doing this video, it is really helpful. It’s my first exercise since I gave birth and I found it easy to do. My baby is 3 weeks and 3 days today. Can’t wait to do all your postnatal workouts.
Congratulations on your new baby!!! Happy you enjoyed the video :) Enjoy all the special moments!
Thank you SO much for your awesome DR workout videos and freebees! As a first time Mom postpartum with slight DR I am so ready to get back in shape but afraid to make things worse. Your workouts are simple yet challenging in a good way! Your a such an inspiration. Hope to be back in shape like you one day! :))
Hi, it would be good to see videos on helping tendonitis in the wrists from holding the baby and also something around lower back and hips for long stints of sitting on the floor for baby groups. I struggle to get up after an hour on the floor as my hips seize up, they are still quite loose from the birth.
I love your videos! 8.5wks pp this is day 7 of doing your videos and my 3 finger gap is down to a 1! I know I still have a lot of work to do but at least I know it’s working 😊
Were you only doing this video or did you others too during those 7 days?
thank you for these videos! my child is almost 4 years old and I still have DR :( is there any hope for me if I stay consistent with these exercises?
Thank you for all these amazing videos regarding Diastasis Recti. I have been researching effective, slightly challenging exercise videos and havent found decent ones till I found your page! Excited to give them all a go!
Hi Grace! You are so welcome :) Yes, that was my same problem after my baby with DR so I decided to create them ;)
@@PregnancyandPostpartumTV Totally appreciate all your time and efforts creating these videos. I've done the entire workout routine playlist and every video has something different to offer! I'm actually maintaining my exercise routine now because I'm enjoying it all so much. Thank you again! :)
@@PregnancyandPostpartumTV Also, if I really wanted to focus on just correcting my DR (currently about 3-3.5cm), would this video be the best one to do twice a day?
Just did my first workout here, my baby is 5 months. For you ladies who have seen a difference, how often were you doing these workouts a week?
Great video , started today
Thank you so much.. i do all the exercises and have healed my 3 fingers gap. I wanted to ask once i m healed can i do crunches
Great video! Looking forward to seeing some progress with my DR!
Thanks Stefany! I did about 10 min day of the exercises. I hope it helps you too! My course is also free now during Covid bit.ly/30avYy7
I'm 14 weeks pp, and my "mummy tummy" bulge is uncomfortable, I still have to wear maternity shorts and pants, and it makes me self-conscious. I'm not sure how to measure diastis recti, but I'm sure these exercises will help. My first child is almost 2 years, and my baby is three months old. I've been doing your videos since my 2nd trimester with my firstborn.
Hi Mommy, I gave normal birth to my baby last August 26, When can i possibly start postpartum yoga?
Prior of my pregnancy I already practiced yoga everyday.
Thanks for this great video. I was wondering if there are any other tips on weight loss in addition to disastis recti
Hi Jessica, I followed your videos during my pregnancy. These are really helpful. Thank you so much for your guidance. Now I am 7 month postpartum, I started to do these excersice. How long would it take to heal my 2 fingers gap?
I'm 11 months postpartum and still have a DR/sagging tummy as I was weeks after birth. I've been doing your exercises a couple of times per week over the past year. Any suggestions?
I love your videos!!
These videos have really helped. I started after my baby and stopped when he waa bout 4months and did more cardio. However my baby is now nearly 3 and i fort id healed but not. I still have a finger gap from top of my naval through my lower abs. What wud b the best exercises or video u have loaded to follow?
I just found your channel! I have 4 kids and my youngest is 3. Still struggling with incontinence when I jump or run too much and hip and knee and shoulder pain. I only have 1 finger separation or less, but I feel my belly pooches a little. Just feeling desperate to solve these issues and trying to be willing to do these basic exercises and lay off the planks and such.
Actually, if you have any advice for me about whether I should be avoiding certain things at this point, I would find that useful
Really enjoy your workouts and find them helpful but I don’t know what to do…everytime I do a side plank I get coning. It only happens when I’m on my side. Any advice? Should I just avoid this exercise?
How often should you do diastasis recti exercises? I've been going for morning and evening, but is that too much? Can I add another one? would that help to close my gap sooner or am I overdoing it? also thank you! you are a life saver :)
4 months and a half pp and I just found out about DR. Was not familiair with this condition.
Unfortunately, the obgyn (a woman!) who saw my recovery post partum (after c section) said it's normal when I asked how come my belly is still very loose although I have always been sporty and fit and had no belly nor fat. Was expecting a speedy recovery. The obgyn said it's normal and that her belly hasn't recovered not even after 2 years pp and that there is nothing to do. Did not mention DR, din not recommend to see a physio, basically encouraged me to do nothing and just wait. Even worse, she gave me the ok to start regular workout (which includes maaany exercises that should be avoided for DR) 🤦♀️
Luckily I found out recently about DR from a friend, used your video to check and I feel a 4 fingers gap. I am starting your exercises now, almost 5 months pp. I hope I am still in time to heal 💪
Do you know whether an umbilical hernia can also be healed wirh exercises like this? My son is 20 month old now and I have an umbilical hernia and a very small diastesis recta. I'm not overweight and have been doing yoga for many years. I don't understand why I got this and hope to avoid a surgery somehow. Would be great to get a response from you. Kind regards
My baby girl will be three months old and I went from a three finger gap to a one finger gap in the last month!
I have diastasis recti and umbilical hernia since last 11 yrs.... Can u guide which exercise i should follow
Hi Jessica you look great! My LO is 8 months and my lower core is very weak but I made it through the video I am going to try to do one of your core work outs like 2 times a week and see if that helps thanks:)
Hi Jaime! Wow 8 months already! So fun! I’m going to keep posting more so you’ll have a variety :) Thanks so much for your support!
Thanks to video can help me to reduce diastasis recti, can i do it after section Caesar? 4month ago
Hello, my baby is just 11 days old today and I'm suffering from both Symphysis pubis dysfunction and diastis recti, what is the best time for me to do these exercises and can I just follow this workout if I'm having Symphysis pubis dysfunction?
I had a C-section 5 months ago and I was in pain... barely started doing exercises for my diastasis recti 2 months ago and haven't seen much improvement (not exercises from this channel lol). I'm feeling defeated.
Thank you for the videos im here trying to get my belly together 5 months post partum. How do I know if I have diastis recti.? I heard you mention coning What is coning?
Thank you so much for your work you are imbedded into my routine now it’s been a week and it’s going so well really r enjoy your channel!!! 💜
I am 6 weeks postpartum and I have a five and a half finger gap and my abdominal separation is on a severe scale as per my physio. Have just started wearing the belly binder, but am getting mixed views from my friends that belly binders aren’t effective after 6 weeks postpartum and it may do more harm than good if I wear it now. Is that true? When do you recommend wearing a belly band and for how long?
Hi,you proposed another exercise in another video,is there any difference between them?
Can you tell me what type of PP belly band you recommend for healing DR? I am already 6wks PP, is it too late for me to start now? Thank you & love your channel so much! Huge supporter ❤️
Hi, thank you for your super helpful videos. I'm wondering if you are maintining and engaged, tight core with pelvic floor lifted throughout the whole 10 reps of Side Plank and Half Frog (for example). Or are you releasing between each rep, and re-engaging when you exhale with each rep (like you do on the bent leg lowers)? Thanks again for all the useful infomation you put out!! ☺
Can we do it twice a day for best result
I'm having a really hard time understanding how to properly breathe through these exercises. When you say engage the muscle I exhale and pull in. DO I inhale (for example with the hip dips) when I extend the hip?
Hi beautiful mama.
There's so much on your channel im lost i dont know where to begin. I have 4 finger gap. Please guide 😢❤
Thanks a lot!
Is it advised to do the exercises with a binder to help holding the belly?
Good question I want to know!
Can I do these exercises during first trimester? I had diastasis recti after c section in july, 2020 that healed pretty well with these videos. I am noticing a very prominent umbilical hernia at this point that is uncomfortable.
My baby will b 4 months old by next week but I am unable to decrease my diasistis gap 😢. Although I do these exercises almost 6 days a week . Can u suggest me any diet changes
Thank you for this workout! Does this workout includes butt? And I have my abs back by just this workout?
It’s been 12 years with Diastasis! Can I still repair it? I still look pregnant
