Diastasis recti is a separation of your abdominal muscles. I often see it happen in women following pregnancy.

As your child grows, your stomach has to expand to accommodate and make room. This "stretching" is designed to take place in the connective tissue that holds the two halves of your rectus abdominis ("six pack muscle").

It happens to 100% of women who reach their third trimester and is completely normal and expected.

The thing is - after the baby is delivered it doesn't always go back together. It's this "failure to close the gap" that we refer to as "diastasis recti" or "abdominal separation".

What are the implications of diastasis recti? Well - it means that your core integrity has been compromised... that there's a "weak spot" so-to-speak. This can eventually lead to low back pain, SI joint pain, hip pain, pelvic floor dysfunction, and even the appearance of a "mommy tummy" or "mom pooch".

It's important to identify this diastasis recti ab separation condition so you can start to take the right steps to "close the gap" and rehab your core the right way. Because "traditional" core exercises (sit-ups, crunches, and planks) actually exacerbate the condition and cause more damage than good.

In fact, if you've been working your core after having a baby and haven't been seeing any progress despite your consistent efforts, this may be one of the main reasons why.

Luckily, the right progression of the right exercises can help significantly with this common condition.
