Which of these c section exercises for stomach muscles did you like and feel the most? I personally love the wall bridge with the soft ball (or cushion). Tell me below👇.
@@sadia-and-samadI suggest you visit your health care provider about the pain in your knee and back side as the videos here are not to give medical advice. If you are walking around and pushing a stroller./buggy and lifting and carrying your baby then it is important to gain strength and I believe many of the exercises you find in this video here where you on the floor would be ok for you. It sounds like you need to take a look at your alignment and have a physiotherapist advise you on this.
Thanks a lot for your precious exercises mam. I am really really wanna say you my hearty thanks. I have been following your exercises for 2 months, then I was 8 months postpartum c section. I couldn't believe how I lost 3 to 4 inches in my hip and thighs. I was just toned well. Thank you so much mam. I'm the proof for your advice and friends follow it if you want to shape yourself and to feel more confident about you body. My only concern is that still I am having my lower belly mommy pooch. Mam I need your guidance to eliminate it, help me mam..
@@rabiyathulfahmiya701 thank you so much for your kind comments 🙏.. The lower belly pooch needs patience and consistency with these kind of exercises, some daily walking and eating fresh, whole foods that are unprocessed. If you are eating high saturated fat and sugar then I recommend limiting these and eating lean chicken, turkey and beans/pulses with plenty of green vegetables. It takes time and progression with the exercises. Keep going with the exercises and I will post a more advanced one soon.
So I’ve been doing this workout for several weeks now and I’ve always struggled so much with my lower tummy after 2 c sections. I do intense workouts and nothing worked until I came across this video. I definitely notice my tummy has gotten a lot flatter and my muscles are stronger. I will continue to do it. I do it three times a week and I absolutely love it. Thank you so much for this 🙏🏽
@juju Perez, 🙏❤️, thank you for taking the time to write your comment and for choosing my video to help you. I'm SO chuffed you are seeing results and it goes to show that the exercises work when you are consistent and put in the effort. Great inspiration for others! Let me know what other videos you'd like to have or what other parts of your body you'd like to tone as I am creating new videos and it will help me produce what you'd like. From my heart to yours XX
You are very welcome, I completely forgot I wrote this review and wrote another one but I am really thankful for this. This video has been helping me in so many ways. I will definitely check out your other videos. I’m looking to loose the bra bulge area of my back other than that everything else is fine :-) Again thank you 🙏🏽 ❤️
A little update on my progress: I’ve been doing these exercises for over a month now and I must say I highly recommend. I can definitely feel my lower tummy more engaged which was my biggest problem after 2 c sections. I’ve had my second c section 3 years ago and I am highly active but nothing worked in the past then i came across these foundational exercises and I am obsessed . I do this 3 times a week after a high intensity cardio workout. In addition to that I also do kegels while performing these exercises and omg everything is stronger and tighter 😀. No more c section discomfort (just keeping it real). For all you lovely mommies with or without c sections, you will not regret doing this workout. A must try!! Thank you so much Vicky!!❤️❤️
@ Juju Perez. OOH! That makes me SO happy to hear 😍👏👏. Thank you for your commitment to my video and for taking the time to comment and update us all. I am past thrilled you have had such good results and I love your dedication, which has been key to your success, along with the right exercises of course 🤗. Keep going with your fitness and activity to have a fit, healthy motherhood. XX
Hi Vicky, it’s been awhile, hope all is well . Sending so much love your way. I need a little of your help . 6 weeks ago I had my third c section and I am cleared by my doctor to exercise again. Do you recommend I start off with this video to build core strength again and flatten my tummy? If not which videos do you suggest i should begin with. I do have diastatic recti and have a bit of a bulge and my surgeon said it will never go away but i have strong faith it will. Thank you.
Thank you heaps Sabah! 😍. You've made my day, thank you for choosing 🙏 my video and I would LOVE to hear back from you in 3 weeks. Be sure to check back in; I'd be excited to hear how you and your tummy muscles are feeling.
@Sanjida Parin - so pleased your back pain is better. Flat stomach requires some love and attention to the food you eat too = lean, protein at each meal and plenty of vegetables including green, leafy ones. Go for high fibre carbohydrate foods too. Limit the sugary/starchy foods. Add movement as part of daily life. Enjoy starting to build healthy habits you can sustain.
Hello! Comment below when you've tried the video out! I I'm curious to know what terms/keywords you googled in relation to c section? This will help me know what information/videos you and others would like me to produce! Thank you!
These exercises are so useful Vicky. Easy to do and I'm sure are going to be effective. I will definitely be passing them on to my friends who've had babies even more recently than me.
Friends you could see mind blowing difference if you stick to it. I got visible difference in 2 months, losing 3 to 4 inches in hip and thighs. It's really an achievement for those who have faced c section.
Hi Vicky, great video. I wish these exercises were available to me 16 years ago. I had C-section in 2004 since then I have awkward hanging belly. I tied diet, HIT cardio. Nothing helped me. Will these exercises help me even after 16 years.
@@BumpandBeyond I’m very happy I just found your video! My last c-section was almost 14 years ago, I’ve had 3! I’m will be starting a routine soon as I’ve lost 97 pounds. I’ll be purchasing me a soft ball and yoga mat. Thank you so much!!!
@@kristinbailey4357 Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you again! You know, you can start this video now without waiting to lose the pounds you want to lose. This video is designed to get your tummy muscles working and combined with cardio-vascular exercise to lose weight and eating healthily you can do this!
Hey @Jessica Dano - thank you, thrilled you checked out my video and did it! Well done! The plank and sit-up whilst we love them are not the best ones to do, after having a baby just yet as they don't target the deeper muscles. Instead, if you want to do a plank do it in an incline position against a wall, so hands on the wall or on a chair. Instead of a sit -up which may make any abdominal separation you have at this stage worse, do a very small lift of the head and shoulders, exhale and gently bring in your belly button as if you are trying to bring it directly towards the lower part of your back. Make sure you do not lift or flare your ribs or crane your neck forwards with your hands. Your aim is to tighten your lower tummy muscle when you lift your head and slightly your shoulders, the tummy wants to sink down and not pop up or dome. It that happens, you don't have the strength yet to do the exercise so instead continue with these ones on the video to strengthen the deeper muscles first.
Hi Vicky great exercises. What exercises would you recommend for me, I had my c section 30 years ago. I’ve toned everywhere and have just my belly above my scar to sort!
Update: I have been doing these along with some cardio for about 2 weeks now and decided to check my gap. My stomach doesn’t cone when I crunch and my gap has closed. I’ve lost a few cm around my waist and thighs as well. I am so happy right now. These exercises really do work. Thank you Vicky!! Are these also good for diastasis recti?
I had c section 3 yrs ago and i have been doing some exercises... i can see some changes all other areas except my lower belly... but then i found your videos...iam going to try this one... would you suggest any videos of yours that works for me... thank you 😊
@Pournami S.B 🙏❤️, thank you for watching! The lower tummy is the frustrating part and I have had many women complain of this. C section gentle massage around the scar will help stimulate the tissues and reduce the adhesions so you can feel the muscles again. Here is my c section playlist with my other c section videos for you: ruclips.net/p/PL56TqbNrrX8Osa9M5JkiA0td8W-kiDufr
Same here... I thought i was the only one. Sometimes i think its loose skin because I workout often and eat super clean. I had 2 c sections and my shelf won’t go away no matter what i do. I just gave this a shot. I’ll continue and see what happens..
Hi , it has been 4 months since my C-section . Can I do these exact exercises now ? If not , please suggest me another video of urs . Also , please suggest if jumping jacks are ok now or not ?
@Pavithra Prishasannidhi Once your scar has fully healed and if there are no complications after the birth or reasons why you've been told not to exercise by your doctor, then you are good to start! Please make sure you feel you have recovered though and there is no bleeding or infection of your scar. Enjoy the video and Thank you for coming by my channel ♥️🙏.
@Zhi Tan, yes these exercises are safe if you have a diastasis recti. In fact, these exercises will help heal it. Be sure to listen to the cue I give in each exercise for when to breath out/exhale as this is usually at the challenging part of the exercise and you need to tighten your tummy around your belly button by visualizing bringing the 2 long vertical muscles together at your midline (that runs down the centre of your body), like closing the front and back cover of a book. Thank you for watching my video and enjoy the exercises!
You can start these after your scar has healed and there is no infection, you have rested and you do not have any pain. This is usually at 6-8 weeks after your postnatal doctor's check but it may be you are a lot longer after giving birth than that. If so and there is no infection, you are good to start!
Hello @janice bullard, thank you for checking out my video and congratulations on bringing your baby into the world, you did an amazing job 😍. Firstly you need to allow your scar to heal properly before rushing into any exercises, especially if these exercises are completely new to you. Secondly, you need to be moving around daily, simple walking and squatting, not long walks, just keep them short and ideally outdoors. If your c-section is healed, it would be worth checking this with your midwife, then try some of the exercises taking it very gently. You must avoid any that cause you sharp pain. I am not a doctor so cannot clear you for exercise so you will need to make sure you are self-aware of your body and scar and participate at your own risk. Usually, the advice is to wait until after your doctor's check but some of these exercises are very gentle and that advice is general rather than being individual. Without knowing your exercise background, level or weight it is difficult for me to answer your question so make sure your scar is healed first and you are not having any pain in the stomach area, if so you must get this checked out.
Follow the video along with me Pavithra, as I guide you through the number of repetitions. Each exercise has a different number. As a guide though it is usually between 8-12 of each x 2 sets depending on your current fitness level.
Thank you for coming by my channel. Yes, of course! When you ask 'Does it work?' results vary depending on the person's level of abdominal strength before doing these exercises, whether they can connect their mind with the body to be fully aware of what muscles they are feeling and whether there is any abdominal fat surrounding the muscle. It also depends on what results you are wanting. Many of my clients and those following this video have had great results with strength and tone however, they are the ones who are consistent and follow this video combining it with regular cardiovascular exercise and full-body exercises. You'll find those exercises here on my channel too. Good luck, and enjoy the video.
@@BumpandBeyond thank you for your response my lovely! I have a large pouch and wish I knew about this years ago… I’ll definitely give these excerises ago 4 x a week as well as running
Welcome @Wild Flower and 🙏 for subscribing! Yes! It is never too later to go flatten your tummy. I encourage you to get started now and try out my videos. This one is a good one to start with. Do pop back here and let me know how you get on.
Once you've fully recovered and your scar has healed. This is different for everyone so I personally do not agree with the standard 6/8 weeks response. These exercises are fairly gentle so if you've started to move and do light activity/walking then you are good to try these. Make sure you have had a doctors check and there are no complications or you do not have any injury where you have been advised not to exercise. Enjoy the video!
Hello Happy Channel! ❤️😁 You can start these exercises once your scar has healed and is not infected. This is usually after 4- 8 weeks but depends on the woman. If you don't have any injuries then start with them now and follow my technique instructions please! Enjoy and be sure to take daily walks.
@Elizabeth Lister-Barrett there is no definite 'yes' or 'no' answer to this question. It is individual and based on whether you are 1) in any pain 2) whether your scar has healed and 3) whether you have any postpartum bleeding. If you did core exercises during your pregnancy and have recovered and can answer 'no' to questions 1 and 2 and 3 then you would be OK so enjoy and make sure that you do not have any sharp abdominal pain when doing the exercises. If you do, you'll need to stop and seek medical advice. You'll need to pay attention to my cues throughout. As I am not a doctor or practitioner and do not know your history, it's tricky to give you a straight 'yes' whilst it is always my intention to encourage these kind of exercises as soon as you have recovered to help healing; paying attention to your body and the breathing cues throughout.
Start these once your scar has fully healed and not infected. They usually say 6 weeks but it’s individual, it depends on whether you did core strengthening exercises during pregnancy, exercise history prior to birth and ability to recover. You will need to go slowly through the exercises and listen to my technique tips in particular the breathing. Enjoy!
Hi Immi M - These exercises would be suitable for you, just make sure you have had your postnatal 6 week check and there are no reasons or complications (other than your moderate diastasis) to not exercise. Follow my cues on activating your tummy muscles correctly and you'll feel those muscles again. Thanks for watching and enjoy!
The short answer is YES after 3 months is a good time if you feel your scar has healed (and not infected) and there are no injuries or severe diastasis recti issues. Enjoy the workout!
Hello madam, I have 4 months old baby in c section. I have both upper and lower belly. Will these exercises be helpful and How many months should I do these to have good effect?
do i need this excercise.. i been 3yrs and 8mos. c-section i able to try the other loose weight excercise is it okay for my tummy? or your excercise i will follow
Try this video first Monazila and thank you for getting on touch. This video is a great one for starting - aim to follow it 3 times a week for a month. Combine this with doing daily activity - walking at a good pace for 30 minutes. Or try my low impact cardio workout you can do at home here: ruclips.net/video/XiOAwW39mJI/видео.html
Hello @Aruna Lama - thank you for asking. As long as your c-section scar has healed, you have recovered and there are no complications you are with your body, there are no injuries or back problems you can start these exercises. This is very individual and depends on every woman's recovery and how they feel. Whilst I am not a doctor and cannot give you the clearance to exercise, you can start with these exercises if all is well. Please follow my instructions and technique tips and I wish you well with the exercises and trust you enjoy them 🙏 ❤️ .
great excerice and explanation...hope it will work for me too..i have done 4 c sections within 8 years..last one before one year and i'm having a big stomach ...may i know how long and how muchtime period in a day that i have to work out get a visible change please..?thank you
Ramla, thank you for watching. Start with this video x 3 times a week on non-consecutive days and moving every day with a walk of 20-25 minutes for first 2 weeks and then increasing to 30 minutes every day (this is both the USA and UK guidelines for daily activity. Then aim to eat one palm size of lean protein; chicken, turkey, eggs or beans, pulses and lentils at every meal with 1 fist size of vegetables and 1 cupped hand of wholegrain carbohydrates. Nutrition and exercise is key!
Yes Tulip as long there are no contradiction with your scar and as long as your health care provider as not said you are not fit or well enough to exercise.
@RobynSaintVeronika - 🙏 for sharing this. This video is a great one to start with as you can do it at home. Aim for 3-4 times a week for at least 3 weeks and keep this really regular. It is also good to try some c section gentle massage around the scar too. I'll be posting a video on that this month (Nov 2020). Try to eat healthy foods - lean protein and lots of vegetables at each meal with foods that you know will make you feel good. Limit sugary/starchy foods. Move your body daily with lots of walking outdoors for the mind and body.
@Smitha, thank you for your kind words and for watching the video! Great question - breathe out/exhale as you lift your hips and breathe in/inhale as you lower. With many of these style of exercises my rule is to breathe out on exertion phase of the exercise.
hey i am almost a year of my C-section . will this exercise help me to get rid of my baby pouch. i used to have flat stomach before pregnancy's. i lost weight but my baby pooch is still way too much visible which i want to get rid off. please suggest some exercise and way to get rid of C-section baby pouch. thank you
You're absolutely adorable🥰...I love your accent and energy! I'm a southern girl from Georgia(US) with a 19 yr old "pooch" that has started to form, mainly because I'm not as active as before😌...I was 15(yes) when my daughter was delivered via emergency cesarean (she's now a sophomore in college🥰), so I can't blame her😂. I'm excited to incorporate your exercises into my workout routine! I could listen to your voice all day!!! You're an angel😘 Peace and Blessings to you and yours!!!
@Kerri Parker 🙏🤗 thank you for your super kind words! I trust you enjoy this video. It's never too late to get going on your tummy muscles and I would love to hear how you get on with this video.
Hey @Katie Cheng YES! It's never too late to start, you just need to start! Please make sure you have clearance by your Doctor to exercise and there are no complications or injuries preventing you from doing so. Enjoy these exercises, thank you for coming by my channel.
Helooo mam...i am 1year postpartum..i am having 3.5 finger width DR..i started doing exercises for DT from 3 mnth itself..but my DR is not healing..plzz help me mam..
I would recommend @ Shyamili that you visit a women's health physio or a physical therapist to check your diastasis and the strength of the connective tissue. Then taking the following steps: These exercises 3-4 times a week, daily movement and making good food choices that will help strengthen the fascia to bring the muscles back together you will be able to heal your DR. But you have to take action and do these steps.
Whether you are 8 weeks, 8 months or 8 years you can do this c section workout provided you have had clearance from your doctor to exercise, your c-section scar/incision is completely healed and there are no complications. Enjoy!
I have a video right here for you @Revathi, Exercises For Breastfeeding Moms To Tone and Lift the Bust: ruclips.net/video/__IkQuL4xUU/видео.html Enjoy and I trust it helps. If you are not breastfeeding, this video is still good for your breasts.
Yes @Neha Singh - it's never too late! Combine with eating healthy foods (not dieting) and low impact cardio at a good pace (where you get out of breath). If you are a beginner level, shoose walking at first. enjoy!
Hi mam am new to ur video.. i had my c sec bfor 3 years and i have sagging belly... is it work for me ?? And how many days and how many times want to do per day? Pleas explain mam
If you follow the video in real-time, you'll do the correct amount of repetitions/sets although it's best not to get hung up on the number but instead focus on the exercises, I give you my full instruction in the video ❤️. Follow me on Insta. instagram.com/bumpandbeyondclub or join my community -there is a free basic option at: bump-and-beyond.mn.co
Hello @Naisa Hasham! Thank you for your question. Yes the exercises in this video are great ones to do for the lower tummy after c-section so do give them a go. Be consistent - you will need to do the complete video 3 to 4 times a week for 4 weeks at least and your nutrition after a cesarean birth is SO important as this will help you flatten the tummy muscles too. NO dieting or calorie counting but whole foods that are rich in fibre, protein, vitamin C and vitamin A and calcium. Examples are lean chicken, turkey, beans and pulses or fish/eggs and plenty of green vegetables such as broccoli and spinach. Choose wholegrain rice/brown rice and sweet potatoes for plenty of fibre, I cannot stress enough how important eating whole unprocessed food is to getting a flatter tummy and recovering after a c section. Hope this helps.
I'm so tensed about myself I'd not like my hanging tummy and my weight is 95 kgs my height is 5,6 how can I reduced my weight and lower tummy too can I need these exercises daily
@@naisahasham3105 I understand but try my suggestions above and take positive actions daily and you will get there. it won't be easy but be kind to yourself and make efforts to be consistent
Yes, as long as you are cleared by your doctor and they haven't provided any medical or you haven't an injury reason that prevents you doing do this type of exercise routine. Enjoy I trust it helps you.
The 'official' period is to wait 6-8 weeks but this is individual for every woman, some women do not feel fully recovered at this point. You must start with light exercises and these ones are good from 6-8 weeks. Enjoy and pop back to let me know how you get on!
@Madhurima Bhattacharjee - it's best to wait until your scar feels healed which is usually 8 weeks however you may find it has healed already. It's best to have had the all clear from your doctor first however, movement is important and you will feel good, so try 3/4 of these moves, go gently and practice the breathing. If any of the movements pull on your scar (which they shouldn't) or you feel pain or discomfort then stop the exercise.
@Joy zenah - combine this video, following along 3-4 times a week for at least 3-4 weeks with eating healthy foods (no dieting) with good combination at each meal of protein, carbohydrates (non-starchy ones with fibre), healthy fats and vegetables. Plus cardio-vascular activity each day for 20-30 minutes where during this time you get out of breath. Keep it to low impact (walking, stationary bike, rowing or Bellicon Rebounding (check my other videos) not high impact as you are still only 6 months and/or if you are returning to exercise or new to exercise or very overweight/obese. ENJOY!

Hey @Jessica Dano - thank you, thrilled you checked out my video and did it! Well done!

Your aim is to tighten your lower tummy muscle when you lift your head and slightly your shoulders, the tummy wants to sink down and not pop up or dome. It that happens, you don't have the strength yet to do the exercise so instead continue with these ones on the video to strengthen the deeper muscles first.
Thanks for these exercises. Sharing with my niece who had 2 C sections. I am subscribing too.
Great video Vicky, l really like how you explain each exercise and then demonstrate it.
Hey @ Cel Amade, thank you for watching. Do try out the wall plank (my fav.) and the chair squat! 👍💥
Great video Vicky!
Thank you Geoffrey, do share with any friends who have recently had a baby.
Hi Vicky great exercises. What exercises would you recommend for me, I had my c section 30 years ago. I’ve toned everywhere and have just my belly above my scar to sort!
Update: I have been doing these along with some cardio for about 2 weeks now and decided to check my gap. My stomach doesn’t cone when I crunch and my gap has closed. I’ve lost a few cm around my waist and thighs as well. I am so happy right now. These exercises really do work. Thank you Vicky!!
Are these also good for diastasis recti?
imfawesometoo - yes you are good with this exercise routine, thank you for checking and enjoy the video.
Hi dear, may I know how long can start exercise after C-section?
I had c section 3 yrs ago and i have been doing some exercises... i can see some changes all other areas except my lower belly... but then i found your videos...iam going to try this one... would you suggest any videos of yours that works for me... thank you 😊
@Pournami S.B 🙏❤️, thank you for watching! The lower tummy is the frustrating part and I have had many women complain of this. C section gentle massage around the scar will help stimulate the tissues and reduce the adhesions so you can feel the muscles again.
Here is my c section playlist with my other c section videos for you:

Can I do it ds exercise with benkung belly binding
I will try I did my cs 8 years ago bt I have a big belly
Will this get rid of a c-section shelf? Its been almost 2 years and I still can't get rid of it :(
Same here... I thought i was the only one. Sometimes i think its loose skin because I workout often and eat super clean. I had 2 c sections and my shelf won’t go away no matter what i do. I just gave this a shot. I’ll continue and see what happens..
Hi , it has been 4 months since my C-section . Can I do these exact exercises now ? If not , please suggest me another video of urs . Also , please suggest if jumping jacks are ok now or not ?
Superb
Can start these exercises now it is 3 rd month
Does this help even years later 💁🏻♀️
Ma’am please tell these exercises are safe in diastasis recti
Which diet to follow?
When have to start this exercise after c sec. Delivery
@Pavithra Prishasannidhi Once your scar has fully healed and if there are no complications after the birth or reasons why you've been told not to exercise by your doctor, then you are good to start! Please make sure you feel you have recovered though and there is no bleeding or infection of your scar. Enjoy the video and Thank you for coming by my channel ♥️🙏.
Which is the best time to do the exercise
One question I seen the demonstration with the ball but not the pillow. Is it possible to demonstrate the correct technique using the pillow ?
@wickedsgirl1127 - just replace the ball with a cushion for those exercises. So you'll put the cushion in the same place as where I put the ball.
Is it a waste if your last cesarean was 12 yrs ago? Or with good nutrition and these exercises I can still make a difference?
Good exercise
Great tips. Thank you.
After how many weeks I can try dis
I'm a mom of 4 C-section an am trying to work it now my last baby is five is it still possible for me to have a flatter stomach?
Is this recommended for diastasis recti?
I also want to know if these can help me lose weight of arms too as I've gained weight over there too with pregnancy and c section... Thank you
@Harpreet - these exercises focus on the tummy muscles rather than arms. I'm going to post a workout for arms very soon, so stay tuned.
Hi i had c section 1 year and 3 months ago.. can i try this exercise? I hope i can get response on you.. thanks a lot
Hi Vicky, are these excercises safe for a mum with diactasis recti? I am doing your mommy tummy workouts diactsis friendly excercises since two weeks.
I would like to know this too please. Is this workout DR safe?
Hello Vicky, is this exercise safe and okay for diastasis recti as I have diastasis recti. Hope to hear from you soon. Thank you :)
@Zhi Tan, yes these exercises are safe if you have a diastasis recti. In fact, these exercises will help heal it. Be sure to listen to the cue I give in each exercise for when to breath out/exhale as this is usually at the challenging part of the exercise and you need to tighten your tummy around your belly button by visualizing bringing the 2 long vertical muscles together at your midline (that runs down the centre of your body), like closing the front and back cover of a book. Thank you for watching my video and enjoy the exercises!
I am 2 weeks post c section
When we going to start these exercises after c section.....
You can start these after your scar has healed and there is no infection, you have rested and you do not have any pain. This is usually at 6-8 weeks after your postnatal doctor's check but it may be you are a lot longer after giving birth than that. If so and there is no infection, you are good to start!
Just started doing these, had a c section 9 months ago and i felt the first exercise the most! 😂 these are great though!
🙏😍 Thank you @Christie - I love that exercise too! For more videos, do consider subscribing to my channel if you haven't already. Stay fit.
Did it pain dear...??
How soon can I start this exercise after a c section
Hello @janice bullard, thank you for checking out my video and congratulations on bringing your baby into the world, you did an amazing job 😍. Firstly you need to allow your scar to heal properly before rushing into any exercises, especially if these exercises are completely new to you. Secondly, you need to be moving around daily, simple walking and squatting, not long walks, just keep them short and ideally outdoors. If your c-section is healed, it would be worth checking this with your midwife, then try some of the exercises taking it very gently. You must avoid any that cause you sharp pain. I am not a doctor so cannot clear you for exercise so you will need to make sure you are self-aware of your body and scar and participate at your own risk. Usually, the advice is to wait until after your doctor's check but some of these exercises are very gentle and that advice is general rather than being individual. Without knowing your exercise background, level or weight it is difficult for me to answer your question so make sure your scar is healed first and you are not having any pain in the stomach area, if so you must get this checked out.
How many repetitions of each exercise should I do ?
Follow the video along with me Pavithra, as I guide you through the number of repetitions. Each exercise has a different number. As a guide though it is usually between 8-12 of each x 2 sets depending on your current fitness level.
Can you do this years after a c section and does it work
Thank you for coming by my channel. Yes, of course! When you ask 'Does it work?' results vary depending on the person's level of abdominal strength before doing these exercises, whether they can connect their mind with the body to be fully aware of what muscles they are feeling and whether there is any abdominal fat surrounding the muscle. It also depends on what results you are wanting.
Many of my clients and those following this video have had great results with strength and tone however, they are the ones who are consistent and follow this video combining it with regular cardiovascular exercise and full-body exercises. You'll find those exercises here on my channel too. Good luck, and enjoy the video.
@@BumpandBeyond thank you for your response my lovely! I have a large pouch and wish I knew about this years ago… I’ll definitely give these excerises ago 4 x a week as well as running
@@ShelleyWatford-bp6hk Brilliant! It is never too late! Remember to update me with your progress!
When can i start after the c section
Hello Vicky. I am your new subscriber. Ive undergone CS operation 3 yrs ago. Do i still have the chance to get rid of my mummy belly? thank you.
Welcome @Wild Flower and 🙏 for subscribing! Yes! It is never too later to go flatten your tummy. I encourage you to get started now and try out my videos. This one is a good one to start with. Do pop back here and let me know how you get on.
Cheers👍
I had c section 3 months before .may I do these exercise ?
Yes i wanna want same answer can i start this exercise i m 3 mnths postpartum c sec
how much after time c section can we start those exercise??
Once you've fully recovered and your scar has healed. This is different for everyone so I personally do not agree with the standard 6/8 weeks response. These exercises are fairly gentle so if you've started to move and do light activity/walking then you are good to try these. Make sure you have had a doctors check and there are no complications or you do not have any injury where you have been advised not to exercise. Enjoy the video!
I had a C section before nine months and have umblical hernia after delivery can i do these exercises. pls reply
I have 2 baby 5yr&2yr... c section, how many time i do this exercises for a best result?
plz tell me best time for this
Hello Happy Channel! ❤️😁 You can start these exercises once your scar has healed and is not infected. This is usually after 4- 8 weeks but depends on the woman. If you don't have any injuries then start with them now and follow my technique instructions please! Enjoy and be sure to take daily walks.
Is this safe 3 weeks postpartum? After a c section Thank you
@Elizabeth Lister-Barrett there is no definite 'yes' or 'no' answer to this question. It is individual and based on whether you are 1) in any pain 2) whether your scar has healed and 3) whether you have any postpartum bleeding. If you did core exercises during your pregnancy and have recovered and can answer 'no' to questions 1 and 2 and 3 then you would be OK so enjoy and make sure that you do not have any sharp abdominal pain when doing the exercises. If you do, you'll need to stop and seek medical advice. You'll need to pay attention to my cues throughout. As I am not a doctor or practitioner and do not know your history, it's tricky to give you a straight 'yes' whilst it is always my intention to encourage these kind of exercises as soon as you have recovered to help healing; paying attention to your body and the breathing cues throughout.
Hello vicky i had my c section 3months ago,is it okay fr me to start the exercise i dont like the way i loook my tummy is still big and shagy???
Thank you
How soon can this be done after surgery??
Start these once your scar has fully healed and not infected. They usually say 6 weeks but it’s individual, it depends on whether you did core strengthening exercises during pregnancy, exercise history prior to birth and ability to recover. You will need to go slowly through the exercises and listen to my technique tips in particular the breathing. Enjoy!
After one year may I do this
I have a muscle separation about 2 1/2 finger gap, can I jump straight in to these workout as I had a c section
Hi Immi M - These exercises would be suitable for you, just make sure you have had your postnatal 6 week check and there are no reasons or complications (other than your moderate diastasis) to not exercise. Follow my cues on activating your tummy muscles correctly and you'll feel those muscles again. Thanks for watching and enjoy!
When should we start these exercises? After 3 months is it ok?
The short answer is YES after 3 months is a good time if you feel your scar has healed (and not infected) and there are no injuries or severe diastasis recti issues. Enjoy the workout!
are these Diastasis recti safe as well? I had two c sections
@Samira Verma, yes you can do these exercises too with diastasis recti. Enjoy!
I had 3 C sections. Last one is almost 2 years ago. Can I do these exercises ? Are these exercises diastasis recti safe ?
@Fatema - yes these are safe for diastasis recti and yes ideal for c section. Enjoy!
Hi there its 4months now since c section is it safe for me to start?
Yes it is as long as your scar has been checked and has fully healed. Enjoy the video, be consistent!

Try this video first Monazila and thank you for getting on touch. This video is a great one for starting - aim to follow it 3 times a week for a month. Combine this with doing daily activity - walking at a good pace for 30 minutes. Or try my low impact cardio workout you can do at home here: ruclips.net/video/XiOAwW39mJI/видео.html
After how many months we can do these exercises?
Hello @Aruna Lama - thank you for asking. As long as your c-section scar has healed, you have recovered and there are no complications you are with your body, there are no injuries or back problems you can start these exercises. This is very individual and depends on every woman's recovery and how they feel. Whilst I am not a doctor and cannot give you the clearance to exercise, you can start with these exercises if all is well. Please follow my instructions and technique tips and I wish you well with the exercises and trust you enjoy them 🙏 ❤️ .
So this will also help the pelvic floor? 😊
great excerice and explanation...hope it will work for me too..i have done 4 c sections within 8 years..last one before one year and i'm having a big stomach ...may i know how long and how muchtime period in a day that i have to work out get a visible change please..?thank you
Ramla, thank you for watching. Start with this video x 3 times a week on non-consecutive days and moving every day with a walk of 20-25 minutes for first 2 weeks and then increasing to 30 minutes every day (this is both the USA and UK guidelines for daily activity. Then aim to eat one palm size of lean protein; chicken, turkey, eggs or beans, pulses and lentils at every meal with 1 fist size of vegetables and 1 cupped hand of wholegrain carbohydrates. Nutrition and exercise is key!
thank you very much for your reply..stay safe..👍👍
I had my baby 8 weeks ago. Can I start doing these now?
Yes Tulip as long there are no contradiction with your scar and as long as your health care provider as not said you are not fit or well enough to exercise.
Its my starting day to get rid of my belly fat... From which video I have to start mam
I had my baby a year ago. I have an awful c section pouch belly. Its making me depressed. Will these exercises help me lose it?
@RobynSaintVeronika - 🙏 for sharing this. This video is a great one to start with as you can do it at home. Aim for 3-4 times a week for at least 3 weeks and keep this really regular. It is also good to try some c section gentle massage around the scar too. I'll be posting a video on that this month (Nov 2020). Try to eat healthy foods - lean protein and lots of vegetables at each meal with foods that you know will make you feel good. Limit sugary/starchy foods. Move your body daily with lots of walking outdoors for the mind and body.
Hi mam I got c section last 7 mths back but my upper tummy will be very hard doctor said it’s a fat u need to excise this video help for me mam
Hey there, I need help loosing bra bulge and back fat. Any suggestions ?
Dear Vicky thanks for amazing innovative excercise I just have doubt with inhale n exhale methods while doing wall bridge, please correct me here
@Smitha, thank you for your kind words and for watching the video! Great question - breathe out/exhale as you lift your hips and breathe in/inhale as you lower. With many of these style of exercises my rule is to breathe out on exertion phase of the exercise.
hey i am almost a year of my C-section . will this exercise help me to get rid of my baby pouch. i used to have flat stomach before pregnancy's. i lost weight but my baby pooch is still way too much visible which i want to get rid off. please suggest some exercise and way to get rid of C-section baby pouch.

You're absolutely adorable🥰...I love your accent and energy! I'm a southern girl from Georgia(US) with a 19 yr old "pooch" that has started to form, mainly because I'm not as active as before😌...I was 15(yes) when my daughter was delivered via emergency cesarean (she's now a sophomore in college🥰), so I can't blame her😂. I'm excited to incorporate your exercises into my workout routine! I could listen to your voice all day!!! You're an angel😘
Peace and Blessings to you and yours!!!

Hi Vicky
Ive had C section 11 years ago will this help
Hey @Katie Cheng YES! It's never too late to start, you just need to start! Please make sure you have clearance by your Doctor to exercise and there are no complications or injuries preventing you from doing so. Enjoy these exercises, thank you for coming by my channel.
Helooo mam...i am 1year postpartum..i am having 3.5 finger width DR..i started doing exercises for DT from 3 mnth itself..but my DR is not healing..plzz help me mam..
I would recommend @ Shyamili that you visit a women's health physio or a physical therapist to check your diastasis and the strength of the connective tissue. Then taking the following steps: These exercises 3-4 times a week, daily movement and making good food choices that will help strengthen the fascia to bring the muscles back together you will be able to heal your DR. But you have to take action and do these steps.
Hi i had a c section 4 ago now can I do this
Whether you are 8 weeks, 8 months or 8 years you can do this c section workout provided you have had clearance from your doctor to exercise, your c-section scar/incision is completely healed and there are no complications. Enjoy!
Tq

Yes @Neha Singh - it's never too late! Combine with eating healthy foods (not dieting) and low impact cardio at a good pace (where you get out of breath). If you are a beginner level, shoose walking at first. enjoy!

Hi I had 6 month ago my c section it's my 3rd baby and my lower belly is hanging do I need these exercise is it for me
Hello @Naisa Hasham! Thank you for your question. Yes the exercises in this video are great ones to do for the lower tummy after c-section so do give them a go. Be consistent - you will need to do the complete video 3 to 4 times a week for 4 weeks at least and your nutrition after a cesarean birth is SO important as this will help you flatten the tummy muscles too. NO dieting or calorie counting but whole foods that are rich in fibre, protein, vitamin C and vitamin A and calcium. Examples are lean chicken, turkey, beans and pulses or fish/eggs and plenty of green vegetables such as broccoli and spinach. Choose wholegrain rice/brown rice and sweet potatoes for plenty of fibre, I cannot stress enough how important eating whole unprocessed food is to getting a flatter tummy and recovering after a c section. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the answer
I'm so tensed about myself I'd not like my hanging tummy and my weight is 95 kgs my height is 5,6 how can I reduced my weight and lower tummy too can I need these exercises daily
@@naisahasham3105 I understand but try my suggestions above and take positive actions daily and you will get there. it won't be easy but be kind to yourself and make efforts to be consistent
Hi, I'm 3 months post c section. Is it safe to do exercise
Yes, as long as you are cleared by your doctor and they haven't provided any medical or you haven't an injury reason that prevents you doing do this type of exercise routine. Enjoy I trust it helps you.
After c section when can I start the exercise
The 'official' period is to wait 6-8 weeks but this is individual for every woman, some women do not feel fully recovered at this point. You must start with light exercises and these ones are good from 6-8 weeks. Enjoy and pop back to let me know how you get on!
Can these exercises be done after just 1month of c section?
@Madhurima Bhattacharjee - it's best to wait until your scar feels healed which is usually 8 weeks however you may find it has healed already. It's best to have had the all clear from your doctor first however, movement is important and you will feel good, so try 3/4 of these moves, go gently and practice the breathing. If any of the movements pull on your scar (which they shouldn't) or you feel pain or discomfort then stop the exercise.
@@BumpandBeyond thank you so much for your help 😊
Am 6months post cs..will its help me reduce my huge belly
@Joy zenah - combine this video, following along 3-4 times a week for at least 3-4 weeks with eating healthy foods (no dieting) with good combination at each meal of protein, carbohydrates (non-starchy ones with fibre), healthy fats and vegetables. Plus cardio-vascular activity each day for 20-30 minutes where during this time you get out of breath. Keep it to low impact (walking, stationary bike, rowing or Bellicon Rebounding (check my other videos) not high impact as you are still only 6 months and/or if you are returning to exercise or new to exercise or very overweight/obese. ENJOY!
