@Buff Body Can i do these exercises? I'd C-section 3 months ago
@@sultanayeasminrazbi1196 You can perform these exercises as soon as your doctor gives you the green light.
Hey. I just have a question, is stomach vacuum same as engaging core/squeezing abs? I have this doubt since a long time. *Please do reply*. And this was helpful thank you 😊
@@kamnachakrabarty5438 Stomach vacuum is not the same as a full engagement, but it is a good start in a process to full recruitment of all 4 core abdominal layers. In our latest videos on that topic we also adapted the terminology as it might have been confusing for people in the video.
Buff Body one of the best videos I’ve seen on this, and how to fix it. Glad I found your channel 😊
Has anyone said how amazing this woman looks for having a three month old?!?!?
Megan Thanks for your kind comment! You have made my day 😘
Smoking hot,having just had a baby or not
@@cristinavguillen random dude thinking your super hot thanks for being in the vid made my day.
I said the same thing! Wow she looks amazing. I dealt with this issue, My daughter was 8lbs, 12 oz... with commitment,hard work and dedication... It can be done!
Oh agreed--both ladies are beautiful.
I have this and I’ve never been pregnant...
That can be the case. Some people are even born with a diastasis recti.
willow levine I had this as a young child. It’s not always connected to pregnancy
same here!!
Can you allso have this as a man?
@@BuffBody can you still fix it if your born with it?
I don’t think enough people know about this. And they don’t realize that all the crunches in the world is not going to fix it and can actually make it worse 🤦🏻♀️ finally someone addresses it! Thank you 🙏
candykizz3z68 in my experience it most def made it worse. I used to have this as a kid and we were forced to do crunches in school 😒
Jas Mia I’ve never heard of a kid having it 😢 did you ever fix it ?
I have seen this on males and females of all ages, mothers or not, anyone can be subject to this.
So true. I'm one of those. I've been planking and crunching like forever yet the belly keeps protruding even with "clean" diet💔😢. Just found out the possibility that i have diatisis recti 3 days ago, hence I've been following on videos here to learn how to overcome this finally
Folashade SEKONI-APAOKAGI Definitely work on fixing it. It will make all the difference.
This should be taught to every woman after giving birth. Thank you so much. So after so many years, I will definitely start to address this. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
True....don't know why the doctors or nurses never address this issue.....would save so many women from lower back pain and lack of self confidence
In France every doctor/gynecologist/coach is aware of this and talk about this to women before and after pregnancy. It's become basic knowledge even for a fitness coach ;)
Dr never told me I had Diastasis Recti. That and the Anterior Pelvic Tilt lead to a bulging L4/5 disc and not being able to pick up my son. I'm still pissed at the doctor.
I agree! Both of my pregnancies were all belly. I only looked pregnant from the sides or front LOL plus I had an emergency c-section with one. So that totally threw my body off kilter. Otherwise I'd always been very fit and athletic. I still kept up the exercises through the years but 20+ yrs take a toll if you don't know why your belly is so misshapen all of a sudden! I'm gonna try this advice.
evelyn foerster ruclips.net/video/belJA2Im_hM/видео.html
I am a Physiotherapist & Specialist Pilates Instructor and I have to say this is amazing!!!! I would love to collaborate with you at some point. My subscribers would love this video
Absolutely! Let's talk!
Yes lilly is good you need to collab shes really good at her workouts
Would be a great cooperation. I love this video and I love your workouts Lilly !
Lilly you definitelly should since it looks like you have overworked diastasis yourself 🙏
I love Lilly please do a collaboration with her!
Ohhhhhh I thought that's just my belly fat
Namu Cho same here 😅. I’ve never had a baby before so makes sense... I was probably born with it.
Same ... did gymnastics and dance my whole life and somehow had this and no one mentioned it or told me how to fix it ... just told me to go harder .. it made me so frustrated I wanted to die .
Namu Cho ruclips.net/video/belJA2Im_hM/видео.html
Same!!! Somehow RUclips figured out I needed to see this, I had no idea it was relevant to me as I have never been pregnant.
me too !
A 3 month old? She looks incredible and is crazy beautiful.
Right? It is awesome what our bodies do
Swigg's Shank Shack ruclips.net/video/belJA2Im_hM/видео.html
Swigg's Shank Shack come on her belly looks messed up. The brunette I mean. Obviously looks like she just had a baby. Doesn’t mean she’s not a beautiful person
Elle Morgan I didn’t get a single stretch mark after having my kids. I only gained 20 lbs and my stomach went flat seconds after giving birth. I had never had a flat stomach but I did after giving birth idk maybe bc my hips got wider and it stretched my stomach sideways hahaha. But now I’m overweight and have stretch marks on my sides. How does that happen?

Thank you for listing this out. Much appreciated 🙂.
Omg I've had this all my life! Never had children and I'm 22. Wow, will try to fix this, thanks
Me too I never knew what it was until now I just thought I was fat .
Ange ruclips.net/video/belJA2Im_hM/видео.html
same
Same! I always knew something was weird when I was doing planks and push-ups but I never could figure out how to fix it.
OMG same!!!! I'm 21 and it's the most frustrating thing 0__0
I've ignored my diastasis recti for almost 3 years now. I couldn't find sensible info...until now. Thank you.
Natalia Blair I never even heard of it until almost 3yrs AFTER I had my kid... been working on mine for almost 4yrs now on and off
Ignored mine for 10 years smh 🤦🏾♀️
Really Though I’ve been very inconsistent with working on it! I will say that I too, felt my belly getting stronger at one point because I was doing DR exercises 2x/day which speeds up the process. Then stopped going to the gym and relocated states. I’ve read/watched that the gap never fully goes away, but working on it with **DR ONLY** exercises WILL help significantly (for those of us that can’t afford lipo or TT) until we are strong enough to go back to sit ups, crunches, leg lifts.
If your stuck at home, try doing them 2x or 3x a day (I just started back up almost 2 Thursdays ago out of boredom) that’s what these influencers have been preaching to get faster results #quarentineBodiesSpring2020 #youGotthis 💪🏾💕
Really Though also with some of the exercises, you can wrap your belly in a towel to help with DR. Fold it the long way til it’s narrow, then put the towel under your back, then cross the ends in front of you and pull it tight while doing single leg lifts and heel slides (you have to hold it in place while doing the exercises). Good alternative to a waist trainer 👍🏾

BEST EXPLANATION of diastisis recti I have watched.
Agreed! I have watched/read so many how-to-fix-diastasis videos/articles and they were all the same regurgitated information. This is what I've been looking for!
I’m a 62 year old mamma with a 13-baby belly. I discovered and began doing Hypopressives just three years ago; 13 years after my final pregnancy. The change has been amazing- from 4 fingers down to barely two fingers very quickly! Taking it all back to the “rebar” of fascia, tendons & ligaments before addressing the “foundation” of the abs is totally enabling me to progress in finding/ creating a new core, even after all these years... Lotsa little “baby steps”truly will cure the “baby belly” ! 😉
Champion!!
Thanks for the inspiration 😊
Am I reading that right? You've had 13 babies?
13 kids is too many
This reduction, do you have to constantly be tensing your abs like this video says? Or is it passive?
I can’t believe that girl has twins that are 8 years old! She looks 20!!
Grow up
I’ve always had this and never found an answer ... wow thank god this randomly came up on my feed, I’ve been a dancer and gymnast for most of my life , and also went to the gym daily till I was 22, now (27). My stomach never being flat drove me insane .
Hey! That's amazing! More power to you😊❤️.. I have a question btw, Is this the same thing what you call "stomach vacuums"? I am still a bit confused! So please do reply
Hi
You posted this 6m ago. How is your belly now?
@@JoelleLuce I started doing 5-6 of chloe tings ab / whole body workouts a day for 3 months , it helped tremendously , if it was a 10/10 before it’s like 3/10 now . But I had to seriously concentrate on keeping my stomach sucked in properly and not continuing the workout if I was too tired to keep perfect form ..
Same...
I was really upset with myself, I’m 17 and I have never had kids and I didn’t know why my stomach did this. Glad I now know why, I just need to try and fix it 😬
As a male that just found out he has a huge split after weight loss. It was nice to finally hear it from a male. I'm also glad I found out before I started the wrong exorcises! Thanks for this! Lets do this!
Stephane Guenette
How did the split occur exactly from your weight loss? I’m very curious.
Me too, and I've never been fat..... Not through over indulgence in pizza, pie, nor beers....... Speak about stereotyping....... Shitty posture, static work positions for 12 hours a day coupled with sedate evenings slouched in front of the TV
These two women look amazing!! The lady with a 3 month old baby look very fit already. Congratulations to both of them!
And thank you to the coach for all the valuable information.
Like many have already commented, this should be shared with every women during and after pregnancy.
It's not just pregnant women who encounter this, my abs are split in this same way after abdominal surgery for a spleenectomy. Thanks for the repair exercises. Looking forward to having a flat and not triangular stomach again.
I totally have this (I'm 20 with no kids) and never knew why, or that there was workouts to help it! THANK YOU!
OK I didn't know this existed
I usually get an awkward feeling when the trainers in these videos touch the women in areas like the tummy. But here everything was so professional and 'non-sexual' that I didn't get these feelings once.

@@chllauk thanks!
@Outspoken-from Ibiza sorry but what do you mean by that? I am not a native speaker. Could you clarify what FFS and pc mean, please? Thank you!
You're in for a good time... 😬
Lol...what vids are u watching??
the lady who just had a baby 3 months ago look incredible...as a 12 month postnatal mama I'm so impressed!
3 months after giving birth and she still has definition. Wow.
I have this and never knew it was a fixable problem
Most comprehensive explanation of something I always suspected I had but know now for sure and am going to start right away to correct. Sitting at my desk sucking my belly button in currently.
OMG thank you so much. You pointed out a problem I didn't even know I had.

DUDE ME TOO
Dieter, you're such a great trainer. Great info, great direction and such a positive attitude 👏👏👏
I’ve no idea this is an ‘issue’ thank you RUclips for recommending this video and thank you for this video
OMG this is the best video ever, thanks for everything, you've give correct information and helpful, after many years of searching I've never found this
This man just saved my life
Thank you for this video! Most Drs don't tell women about this condition after birth, thanks for showing us some gentle movements to work on D.R.
The models are seriously ripped! Nice job staying in shape through pregnancy ladies👏💪!!
Great demonstration and explanation. It’s so important for people like you and I who are trained to get the word out and help moms heal from it.
My son is 10 years and I just realized I have this... I had no idea why every time I did a crunch this line would bulk up in my belly 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ thanks for the info!
This is not discussed enough! It is ridiculously common for new moms to have separation. 😩
A thumbs up just for addressing the issue and the science behind it! Both these ladies look wonderful!
I knew there was something odd with my stomach whilst doing pilates. Thank you for clearing this up and helping me understand.
Thank you for explaining about the doming and the link with activation, it's really well explained!
This is amazing! I've been practicing the beginner movements since having kids simply because I believed it would improve my form while exercising, help my posture and reduce back pain. No matter what my fitness level I always believed in good form and posture. Thanks for re enforcing this for me. Now I can try the advanced stages. Wonderful advice.
This is the best video I've seen on diastasis recti for moms. These exercises and progressions work! Thank you!
Best description of dr and how to recognize it. I’ve been wondering for months because of the doming and this made it clear and simple
Thank you for this great video! I didn’t realize this is a problem but my Pilates instructor kept asking me not to pop the tummy. I didn’t know why until I watched this video. So I shall be more mindful in the future. Thank you!
Love the explanation! This is what I need !! As heels user for more than 20 years, this awareness helps me to relocate my belly in!
I'm glad I found this, I'm a quintplet mum with 4 fingers apart diastasis recti , thank you for this awareness
I’ve been doing research to try to fix my posture for so long. This is the first time I’ve come across this information and it is what I’m in need of. Thankyou for posting this.
This is phenomenal! I’ve never heard of any of it. Shocking! I’m on it!! 👌🏼👌🏼
I'm pretty sure I've had this most of my adult life... I've never been severely overweight, I can't say exactly when my stomach changed, but I'm sure this explains the doming, the back arch, and the lower back pain from basic exercises. Thank you for a clear, simple explanation!
Wow loved how thorough, informative and detailed this video was. thank you!
This was the most helpful video I’ve seen yet for DR
Loved it, and he was so respectful of their bodies. Two kids later and I realised I have it because my innie is now a full blown outie. These exercises do help, great job guys.
Excellent video. I have this also but have worked to improve it tremendously. It's good to have another video with helpful advice and workouts for whatever stage you are at with your diastasis. Very informative...thank you!
The mirror tip is a game changer!! Thank you for all of these tips!!
The best video and the most humble guy I have seen so far regarding this problem
2 years postpartum and I wish I had found you sooner!
I love that he said, "Don't be lazy." #That's the real key to getting those abs back in shape
Best explanation I've heard so far.
I love the 'don't be lazy' comment really enjoyed your video excellent tips. Thank you
The beat video i have listened and watched so far i try after 4yr baby delivery my stomach still the same
Hey....Thanks soo much....and big thanks to your models for putting themselves out there to help the rest of us actually see what diastasis recti looks like....I'm excited to start work on my abs👍
YOU ALL DID SO WELL!!! Keep making videos please!!! I learned SO MUCH JUST FROM THIS VIDEO!!!!! Thanks u !
I have watched hundreds of fitness videos and read countless fitness books. I have never seen this addressed before. Great job!
I've had 4 kids in 8 years and my belly is so poochy I've been feeling self conscious. I'm so excited about your video because trying to workout I any way has been discouraging. I'm gonna try this! :) thank you!!!
I must say that every single exercise for Diastasis Recti I found was boring ( still did them to heal my separation) and this is something I was definitely looking for! Thank you so much!
Best advice I've heard yet. This gives me loads of confidence. Thanks a lot
I have 4 children and I suffer from this this is the 1st video but I have ever seen and I have been bodybuilding pretty much my whole life.
I consider my coach to be one of the best in the world for natural bodybuilding and even he has never addressed this issue
I'm blown away thank you so much
This is gold info!! Honestly this is incredible!
Excellent video! Great trainer and awesome positive attitude!
So glad I found this, I waited to long heal my self
Great information, excellent direction/explanation and I love the amazingly positive attitude, especially for women and their bodies!!!
This information and attitude applies to everyone. When you have a challenge look at it as an opportunity. Some of us can achieve healing and return to familiar routines and some find new ways to reach our goals. I have old abdominal injuries from when I was a child I torn my abdominal muscles and no one, not even my then doctor ever told me about healing these muscles or sending me to someone to help me. I will be practising these to work on repairing and strengthening these old injuries. Thank you!!
best explanation/resolution I've found in this "mommy" issue! Thank you soooo much
Yessss yesass yessss omg I was thinking that after my two pregnancies my tummy became like this when I do crunches...i was wondering the other day why...thank you universe for bringing this video into my experience and thank you sharing your knowledge and answering my questions! 🙏😄
Watched like 10 videos all were useless. this vid is detailed and Best explanation ever!
Best video I have ever watched on Fitnesss.
I am definitely working on these exercises. After recovering from my 4th C section I must admit it has been very difficult to design a plan that works to build the 4 abdominal layers again. This was great and very informative and can’t wait to add these to my routine.
Hey Rashonda! Did you try out this? Did it work for you?
This is possibly the best video I have seen explaining this condition. I went to my Doctor at 3 months post partum after recognising something was wrong. She simply said yes you’ve got it go on RUclips and find some videos. 😳 This talks me through so slowly and breaks down the levels so well. I’m so sad I only found you now (3 years post child birth). 😞
Anyhow I’m getting to work. Thank you so much for this video. Hopefully I can say goodbye to the majority of my doming.
omg that was the part i was missing from everyone else explaining it. to keep focusing on it. i have noticed sometimes when im training if it gets too repetitive too often i start spacing out and stop minding my movements properly. right. it makes so much sense. also i havent been doing enough of all of these all my life wow
thank you
It is nice to see some people support the idea of fix it with exercise instead of getting a surgery. I will try it...
Great video! My pilates instructor always says close the ribs but I didn't know why!
By the way , both moms look great but Mom of three month old looks phenomenal
Yes, she does- I like HER figure!
This is the best explanation of diastasis recti with solutions for all levels that i've seen so far in youtube, thank you very much for posting this!!
I really enjoyed listening to you and watching your demonstration. You got my subscription.
Thank you so much for this! I’ve been trying to figure out why my stomach would bulge during exercise...I have 4 kids and it’s been so hard to get rid of what I thought was ‘baby fat’ and I’ve been working out for several months.. Definitely going to try these workouts.
I'm a guy over 50. Lost 70 pounds and have some of the same abdominal doming. Thank you! I think these will be very helpful. I'm going to start at the beginning of the progression.
Christina looks absolutely amazing!!! I can’t believe she has a 3 month old! She’s so beautiful!!
After 3 months I found the courage to Adress this. Thank so much. You have no idea how much this helps. ❤️
I have watched sooooo many videos on healing diastasis and this is the first one I've seen that a) actually gave me real hope of getting rid of it without surgery and b) was actually shown with strength in mind (so many other diastasis videos only focus on getting rid of the pooch, which is only part of the equation). It's so encouraging! You just earned yourself a sub. I would really love it if you would make this into a series as so many of us struggle with this and are at different levels of training. I also have twins, so if Ursula can get her diastasis under control, then so can I!
Thank you! We will definitely be doing more videos about this topic!
Yes so so much body positivity here!!
@amy could you share your results? I see your post is a year old
So glad I found this! I wondered my my abs did that and now I know! But I have not been pregnant haha thanks so much for this video!
i loved the "dont be lazy" and how the ladies both smirked & looked at him.
Amazing video!! Mom of 2, you’re the only person who talks about having the awareness and mind to muscle connections throughout the day! I have been doing this even before working out and notice the major difference it makes. Great info! Thank you.
This is a great video!! I have an almost 3 year old and I have DR and I still struggle with exercises and controlling my abs. This video was very helpful for me!
I went to vaginal physical therapy which was very helpful for all postpartum moms, but I definitely need this kind of coaching in the gym! Thank you!
Please, I would like to know what vagina physical therapy is all about. Thank you
I had a baby year and half ago and I 'm trying to look like the woman who had the baby 3 months ago.
S Forbes same here girl
My kids are 8 and 6 years old and her tummy looks better than mine.
and flat your belly at least for 2 hours a day. By tighting .your muscles. .It allowed me to be flat after my babies
Same, I had my youngest 13 YEARS AGO!
Lol same.... I looked like that before getting pregnant 😂
Wow! Congratulations on this video going viral!! It is well deserved! Everything you said made sense to me. Thank you for being real on wearing the waist bands, too! That's real talk! The same concept goes for us women wearing wired push-up bras, they make the breast weaker over time as well! Who knew!? God bless you Sir! Cheers! ❣💯💪
Thank you so much for your videos.. with lots of love from here in Iran

Only half way through the video and you are brilliant! Just the information I need and so detailed thankyou x
that was awesome im a bodybuilder that has this from squats without firing up my support thank you
I wish I would have known this 2 years ago!!!!!!!!🙏🏼 this was so helpful. Thanks a lot!!
Useful info for fat men also. I didn't notice it until after I was recovering from umbilical hernia repair. Always thought it was just a matter of doing a few crunches.
This is a huge revelation for me!! I’ve had 3 babies and since then (2005!), I’ve had a terrible lower back pain during/after ab workouts and extreme abdominal cramping. I had to give up long distance running too! This is amazing and I’ll be taking your program!!! 🙏🏽❤️
Thanks a lot! If you need any kind of personal support, we also have an online program with direct support and video corrections. Our members see great results with their diastasis and even manage to participate in full workout programs.
Wow! Finally someone addressing THIS! 7 months PP and my stomach still does this. My GYN sis not diagnosis me but my stomach does this!
