Core and Upper body. Sheesh this one is a tough one, but it’s SO good for strengthening those core stabilizers to help with your lower tummy and improve back pain. 1.)Modified V sit -arm drop to floor. Inhale as you lower your arm. Exhale as you bring it back up. Modification: Perform without weight 2.) Modified V sit front raise- Exhale as you lift your arms. Inhale as you lower them down. Modification: Perform without weights 3.)Modified V sit plate hold with leg walk out- Inhale as you walk your leg out. Exhale as you bring it back in. Modification: Perform leg walk outs without your hands on the floor helping to brace your trunk. 4.)Modified V sit and reach-Exhale as you reach forward. Inhale as you come back. Modification: Perform without weight ❌Do not hold your breath when doing these. ✅Keep your core activated while performing each rep. If you need to stop and reset your core, do so. Form is the most important part of performing these. ✅Work on core activation in the modified V sit position to prevent any doming or bulging of your abdomen. If you have any doming or bulging from a diastasis, definitely modify.

I’m always so surprised at how much work these slow, steady movements end up being!
