The Details.

  • What can I expect?

    Don’t expect a 6 pack overnight (sorry). 

    This course focuses on breathing, creating an abdominal connection and introducing slow progressions. Each video is approx 5 minutes long, so it will be manageable and easily slot into your day.

    In terms of outcomes, expect to feel a better connection with your deeper abdominal muscles.

  • What do I need?

    Not much! Just at least 5 mins a day, space to lay down. 

    We use a prop in the first few weeks known as a Pilates ball. But it is just a soft (squishy) ball. If you don’t have access to one and don’t want to buy one, you can use:

    • a little soft ball if you have one around the house

    • or even a small pillow.

    The purpose of this prop is to be able to squeeze it between your knees..A balloon will not be suitable, as it can pop. Remember - Changes in muscles take time, so bring your patience and your positive attitude.

  • How long does it take?

    Each video is approximately 5 mins long, and you are able to do that video up to 3 times in one day. So between 5 - 15 mins max a day. You perform the same video for a week, before progressing to the next week. I recommend doing a video every day, but you can skip one day a week if you feel you need to. 

    strengthening your deep abdominal muscles is all about breath and stability. It is a very slow build up and suitable for every level.

What is abdominal separation?

Abdominal separation, or Diastasis recti is a condition characterized by the separation of the rectus abdominis muscles, commonly known as the "six-pack" muscles.

This separation often occurs during pregnancy as the growing uterus stretches the abdominal wall, but it can also affect individuals who have experienced significant weight fluctuations, performed strenuous exercises, or experienced certain medical conditions.

Abdominal separation can lead to various issues, including a weakened core, lower back pain, postural problems, and an increased risk of hernias. Additionally, it may contribute to functional difficulties, such as challenges in performing daily activities, including lifting or bending.

If you have diastasis recti, it’s important to avoid certain exercises that can exacerbate the condition or place undue strain on the abdominal muscles, like any form of high intensity exercise, heavy weight lifting, plank or crunch/sit up.

Instead, focusing on a gentle core rehabilitation program that includes pelvic tilts, modified exercises, and breath work is beneficial.
