Dr. Jen helps me show you not only how to check to see if you have diastasis recti, but also a great and easy way to strengthen those muscles in a safe and correct way to help reduce that space.

A diastasis recti can occur when your belly expands from pregnancy or being overweight, and the connective tissue gets stretched out, pulling the rectus abdominis apart.

Often people try to correct this by doing a lot of crunches, but if you are already stretched out in that area, traditional crunches can make it worse.
