home workout using bodyweight and resistance band for post-partum mom safe for those with diastasis recti ||purelytwins.com #postpartum #bodyafterbaby

I am always looking for new workouts to challenge myself while I am still healing with an ab separation. Creating workouts is one of my favorite things to do to let out my creativity. Michelle and I have so many ideas running through our heads all the time… just like with our recipes.  We get such a high from doing what we love. I am so grateful for my job as an online personal trainer. I hope you enjoy this bodyweight workout as much as I did. My quads were feeling it by the end.

Now, if you aren’t a mom or have diastasis YOU CAN still do this workout.

Bodyweight home workout that only takes 12 minutes and targets the whole body.

We suggest for different fitness levels:

B-fits (beginner peeps) – Take your time with this workout. Take breaks when you need it. Omit the tuck jump.

A-fits (advanced peeps) –  Go for speed and limit your breaks.

Post-partum (diastasis recti) – Recommend doing this a few months post partum when the core is a little stronger. Standing crunches are good to do when gap is closer to 2-3 width. If your core doesn’t feel strong enough wait and do this when it is stronger.

Pregnant ladies – If the jumping in the squats are too much, step your feet in and out as your squat.

Like I mentioned in the video it is important to actively engage your core when you do the standing crunches. Think belly button to spine every time you lift your kneed.
