Skin Rolling for Middle and Upper Ab Gripping

Описание: Middle ab gripping can be problematic for your core, pelvic floor and diaphragm function. If you’re constantly squeezing in the middle, this can cause poor distribution of pressure and a lack of dynamic movement.

1) Pressure goes down to your pelvic floor, contributing to pelvic floor dysfunction.
2) Pressure can go to your upper or lower abs, limiting your diastasis healing and affecting how you stabilize your spine and pelvis.

Instead, we want to have a good distribution of pressure so that one area isn’t taking on too much of the load, whether that’s by overly lengthening or constantly engaging.

On an inhale, pressure is sent down. We need for it to expand in a 360 degree, umbrella-type fashion, creating an equal distribution of pressure. On the exhale, the pressure is sent back up, shortening like a rubber band after the balanced lengthening.

Here are two idea to include during the day to bring balance to your system and help with the gripping.

Skin rolling: Try to lift and roll the smallest amount of skin that is possible. You can do this all around your abs, ribs, and sides. If you have a diastasis, be careful going close to it and ease into the area to see how your body responds.

2) Hold the middle and breathe: Instead of moving your hands to mobilize the tissue, you’re using your breath to help mobilize it.
