How to do exercises with Diastasis Recti - 7 simple movements for post-pregnancy

If you have diastasis recti either during pregnancy or after pregnancy, then you should not do the traditional Core exercises.

If diastasis recti (a separation of the right and left side muscles of your belly) occurs, then you should stay away from twisting motions, planks (not modified), crunches and most traditional abdominal exercises. You will need to train the pelvic floor and transverse abdominis to re-create the strength and integrity of your core. You can do this with pelvic floor training, supported crunches and TA training. Listed here are the 7 Simple Movements that initiate the healing of diastasis recti. And can be done directly after pregnancy or further down the line. And all of these abdominal exercise modifications are provided Lindsay’s Boot Camp 2 DVD and CFS Method DVD. Please scroll down or go to Diastasis Recti after Pregnancy or Diastasis Recti during Pregnancy to determine if you have diastasis recti.
