Belly Pooch from Pregnancy

Hi all!   When you give birth, your abs take a beating! If you have a weak core (lower ab pooch) and suffer from lower back pain at times, check out this article that teaches you a core strengthening technique- similar to the one we do in class....the Pelvic Tilt!!

Highlights from article:

*doing the exercise 10 minutes a day for 3-4 weeks can bring dramatic results- an inch or two off your waist. 

*in 12 weeks there was 100% success in repairing Diastasis Rect (separation of the abdominal wall)

*the exercises works best within months of delivering a baby, but most importantly, still brings success years after giving birth! 

I say lets try the experiment! Take your measurement around your waist- directly over your belly button and record it. We will perform this exericse after every bootcamp class and you will need to do 10 min a day on your own. Please review with me if your not sure you're doing it correctly. We will retake our measurements in 4 weeks to see our results! Let me know if you would like me to measure you!
