For my mamas !

It was a diastasis workout kinda day!

Does anyone dread side planks like me? Probably one of my least favorite things...even during yoga..just not my jam

But I'll appreciate the results so I can suck it up for a little bit !

I did 3 sets of 45 seconds each with 15 seconds rest in between.

Fun fact about this video..The whole time I was feeling like something was wrong with my shorts...even convinced myself my butt was shrinking bc they kept sliding down...whole time they was on backwards lmaooo I didn't realize until the very end of the workout ...guess that's just part of this crazy week lol

HAPPY HUMPDAY 😊

... Read moreDiastasis recti, a common condition affecting many postpartum women, requires specialized workouts to strengthen the core effectively. Incorporating exercises like side planks might feel daunting, especially if you dread them. However, integrating variations and modifications can make these exercises more approachable. To get the best results, aim for consistency—three sets of 45 seconds with short breaks in between can yield impressive results. Additionally, ensure your form is correct to maximize effectiveness and avoid injuries. A supportive community is invaluable here; sharing your struggles and successes can keep you motivated. Don't forget about the importance of comfort during workouts. Ill-fitting clothes can be a distraction, as humorously highlighted in the author’s experience with wearing shorts backward. Always prioritize your comfort and confidence, so you can focus entirely on your fitness goals. Engagement with like-minded individuals on platforms like Lemon8 also provides encouragement and tips for other workouts. Explore hashtags like #diastasisrectiexercises and #homeworkout to connect with others navigating similar journeys.

Two bowls of food, one with a salad and another with salmon, arugula, and broccoli, represent meal prep. An overlay discusses the mother-in-law still bringing food despite the wife's efforts.

Mamas, let’s keep praying for our babies daily.🤍
Being a mom is one of the hardest but most rewarding jobs in the world. Our babies are our gifts from God, and it’s our job to raise them up to be strong warriors for the Kingdom one day and cover them with the blood of Jesus in prayer.
