Thank you for sharing have 2 children last babybwas c section 9 months ago now I'm starting to work out and do pelvic floors ect. Also learning what I shouldn't have been doing to make things worse.
So glad this was helpful!! It’s never too late to start. 🤍
This was very good🎉🎉🎉
Glad you enjoyed it!❤
Does engaging pelvic floor always mean doing a legal while zipping up and engaging core??
No, you do not have to do Kegels to engage your pelvic floor!
thank you, so when we inhale, do we keep this connection or do we reengage on the exhale?
You don’t have to do this deep belly breath every single time you do a two of an exercise. Once you engage, you can keep the core tight and still breathe-just breathing into the chest/diaphragm not the belly, so your core stays engaged. Inhale through the nose, exhale through pursed lips. However, you can always stop and reset between each rep pr whenever needed, especially if you feel yourself losing core control.
When Exhale then fingers should be placed on tailbone??
You can, yes! It helps ensure that you’re not excessively arching your low back. There should be a small, natural curve in the spine-just enough to place your hands underneath.
How long do you have to wait after having a C-section to do this?
Check with your provider-but as soon as you feel ready and pain has mostly diminished. I have a C-section recovery plan on my playlists that is perfect for newly postpartum C-section moms. ❤

How many times we need to repeat this excercise ma'am..
Hi! This is merely a tutorial, but check out my channel playlists for postpartum Ab workouts!❤
Do you need a glute squeeze while engaging the core?
No, I’m fact you do not want to engage or squeeze your glutes. This can cause the glutes to be short and overactive, creating unnecessary compensation. Try to relax glutes!
@@laurenfitterfitness thank you for your reply
Why I’m doing opposite every time i try to 😢
It takes some practice; I suggest using a mirror. You’ll get the hang of it!
While engaging core and doing exercises, should the vaginal opening remain contracted?
Hi! If you’re referring to a kegel contraction, no, you should not be clenching your pelvic floor the entire time. It should be a gentle contraction: pull inward and upward, like you’re picking up a blueberry! Sounds silly, but it works!
i didnt work for me 😭
im trying to engage my core more but i cant 😞
Hi! You might find my workout videos more helpful for application. Check my channel playlists for my Postpartum Ab Program for more in depth core work. ❤
