🤰🏻Getting pregnant is a beautiful gift but does cause stretching of the core muscles. 🤰🏼🙋🏽♀️DIASTASIS RECTI, ab separation happens in 100% of pregnancies. With this info, we expect the core to be weakened.
〰️A C-SECTION causes a lot of additional trauma to a woman’s core.
During the actual surgery the muscles are moved out of the way to get through more layers of tissues .
➖Because Of these changes, we want to make sure we properly rehab the core. This is something physio.rx and I work on.
These are 3 core exercises I’ve progressed to after my c-section. These are all great goals to work towards after major abdominal surgery〰️
✔️Planks
✔️Sit Ups
✔️Toe Reaches
