    Been lifting for 3 years, heavily reliant on lifting belts, always have back pain. I have abs as I work on abs twice a week, just tried this form of engaging my core now I’m rethinking my entire fitness journey 🤯 I have no core strength 😭, I couldn’t even do a crunch with his engagement. Will be doing this moving forward ❤ thank you 😊

    I never had this after 2 babies one c-section. I finally had such a strong core 2ish yrs ago then something changed and I have no idea what?! I somehow began not engaging my core correctly and I now feel like I am starting over. I am so beyond frustrated! Thank you for this ❣️

    More please. I have not been diagnosed, just told that it happens 🙄. I think I have separation in my abdominal muscles. My stomach goes into a triangle when I lay on the floor like this. I can put 2 fingers in between that triangle separation. I didn’t think it could be healed!

    Thank you for the video.
    My belly had become coning or doming and even though my baby was 1 year old, I still looked five months pregnant. My stomach is flat when I'm lying down, but when I stand up, it bulges out. I know my abs are weak and that's why the cones happen.
    Naturally weak abdominal muscles, does exercise help?
    Thanks.

    Question: how can you tell about coning or if a dome is forming if there is extra skin or fat in the belly (like the mama pooch)?

    • @docjenfit
      @docjenfit  Год назад +1

      A lot of it will just have to do with how you are feeling when you load the anterior core and the shape you notice your tummy take. It definitely can take some exploring and I would just try focusing more on what you feel and when you feel the most complete contraction and pressure of the whole core.

    Hi Doc Jen, thank you for all your amazing educational videos! I have a question about core exercises; whenever I engage in planks or twists of any sort, I feel a soreness/tightness on the right side of my waist. It is literally in the midline of the navel, and it feels very tight. when I push my into this spot, it actually feels better. Is that potentially a torn oblique? I try to rest it, but I do need to work out. Thanks!

    • @docjenfit
      @docjenfit  5 месяцев назад

      I don't think it would be a tear of any sorts but just maybe a place that you have a bit more tension. It's good to be aware of this as you continue to push into it. Hopefully as you do more exercises, you will notice the soreness or tightness reduce!

    We should engage core before doing any weight lifting exercises??

    • @docjenfit
      @docjenfit  5 месяцев назад

      We really should always be trying to have dynamic core stability but not necessarily in a way that would impact our breathing or make us feel too rigid.

    My exact issue, I thought I had bad DR, but it’s less than one finger separation. I have bad coning/doming - which course of yours do you recommend? I’m looking on your site and unsure

    I have what I think is hard doming caused by over strenuous ab exersises - sit ups lying with feet higher than head. Cannot rectify - I have tried all types of exercise and I think abs are permanently damaged. Any advice would be appreciated.
