Like the other two positions for proper breathing and core activation, I’m simply performing the movement while on my hands and knees.

(DR) Core Activation - Hands & Knees

For this exercise, I’m going to first activate my core. Once my core is activated/engaged, I’m going to slide one heel across the floor.

Once my leg is fully extended, I’m going to lift my leg up and place my foot back in the starting position.

Like most diastasis recti focused exercises, this particular movement might not initially feel like you’re doing much, but with the proper engagement you’ll start strengthening your weakened core muscles.

(DR) Heel Drags

Once more core is engaged/activated, I’m simply lifting one foot off the ground before returning to my starting position and switching legs.

You’ll want to focus on controlled movements so be sure to go at your own pace.

(DR) Heel Lifts

Loved how you explained in detail how to engage those TA muscles!!

Jamila

It was great! I love learning about proper core engagement. I thought it was neat how you taught us to get down on the floor. It’s very detailed instructions ☺️ The only other wish I have is that the videos were formatted differently, like instead of them being separate sections where you hit the timer, it would just be all in one video with a timer already going.. idk if that makes sense or not lol

Overal pretty good, I need practice on how to breathe.

Great!
 Still struggling with keeping my core activated but will get it eventually.

I love how her kid is playing in the background! An inspiration to postpartum mothers!

Great! Can you please clarify what 10-10-10-10? I’m confused I’m assuming 10reps but then above it it says 4 reps?

Feels so good, effective and gentle and warms up my core for the morning.

It doesn’t seem like you’re doing much with these movements, but I definitely feel like my core is working!
