ESSENTIAL MOM MOVEMENT SERIES: Exercise 1️⃣ . Are you looking for a way to safely and effectively load your core and integrate your pelvic floor subconsciously? . Have you had a baby or babIES and still feeling disconnected from your core? . 🤗Guess what?! There is an answer beyond planks and kegels! Ladies, I am here to tell you that you can recover your pelvic floor and core after pregnancy. 🧐The key is to remember that we are interconnected! Your core is not just your abdominal wall. Cool huh!! . 😁I have a #diastasisrecti and in this circuit you can see through my white shirt how it is affected by my chosen exercises... . Today’s pattern uses a 6kg @viprpro and a half kneeling to long stride lunge as a base. Driving the ViPR along different angulations loads my whole core. The half kneeling position decouples my hips which allows for better movement through my spine the long stride lunge position loads my pelvic floor. . When I first started recovering my diastasis...do you think I used this pattern? YES, but regressed! I used my hands and breath. Slowly, little by little my range increased. There was less doming through my abdominal wall and I could feel the springiness coming back to my core. . Ladies, don’t live with back pain or dysfunction follow pregnancy! There is an answer! Trainers look up @pelvicore_pro creator Christina Christie and attend her Female Chain Reaction through the Gray Institute and @soft_tissue_therapy Lenny Parracino’s course FSTT also through the Gray Institute! .
