Let me tell you something, this woman and the moves she demonstrates to heal your diastisis and improve your abdominal muscles is the truth! This is the first comment I ever left on a UA-cam fitness channel and I’ve been using UA-cam for damn near 20 years. They work! I’m 16 months post C-section and I’ve been watching her videos and doing these exercises at least 4 times a week, for 10 months now and I see definition in my abs that I’ve never seen BEFORE having my baby! Trust the process and you WILL see a change. She is amazing and I’m so grateful I found her videos.😊
Hello Sherica! Thank you 🙏🏽😘 you for choosing to follow my videos, for taking the time to write this comment and for your commitment! I am truly grateful to have you here tuning in PLUS I am so happy to hear about your results. That is my mission for creating these videos and to help from moms/mums from around the world improve their strength and definition. A big hug all the way to you from here in England and I hope to continue to help you with your fitness and core muscles beyond having your baby. Well done and thank yourself for your commitment to the videos. Let me know what other videos you'd like on this channel and that will help me make more content for you. Have a beautiful rest of your day Sherica, Vicky X
I had my last baby 11 years ago and no body told me not to do sit-ups/crunches and I probably just made things worse. I gave up and just have been living with my horrible tummy. I am currently thinking about surgery but after research, I decided to give correct exercise a try first. wish me luck.
Me too! I have been living with a droopy embarrassing belly and hanging back fat after I had my baby 1 yr 7 months ago. I hate it but I’m finally making those changes! You are not alone!
I do recommend these exercises because you are making the abs strong which keeps them in place but going for a surgery you don’t have those strong muscles and most likely they will go apart again
I really like these exercises. I had to give myself some grace because my abs are so weak. I have a 6+ finger diastasis and apron belly. I have had 2 c sections and although it was Dec 2019 with the last one still lots of pain. I look like I'm 6 months pregnant but I am determined to get stronger though so I praise God for your videos! Do you have a suggestion on a wrap to help with holding things in while I strengthen? To all the other mommas out there you can do this. You carried and delivered a human being! You care for them daily. You are beautiful, creative, and strong. Even when you don't think you can do it remember with God all things are possible. You were strong enough to get through countless hours of labor, if you had a c section the pain and recovery of that. Give yourself some grace. Stop and rewind if needed. Do what you can and set a goal. By the 5th time I watch this I'm going to work to get through the while video or whatever works for you. You go Momma!!
@Momma Boo. 🙏❤️ Thank you for writing and sharing your story. I love this and your message to other moms. A c section is major surgery and it takes a lot longer than the magical 6 weeks "you're fine to exercise" period to rest and recover. You will get to your goal, just take small action steps to eat healthily (no diets) to help nourish and heal your body (no matter when you had your c section this is vital) plus daily walking combined with these strength exercises. You can pause this video and do 10 minutes, then return the next day to do the remaining 10 minutes. In terms of a wrap, whilst they can be helpful for short periods of time, wearing a wrap won't help you connect and strengthen your core muscles, you are best to really work on breathing and trying to engage the muscles, watch for any doming/coning as you do the exercises and keep your ribs down (rather than flaring the ribs). Be patient and I do advise you to seek the help of a physical therapist to help you alongside these exercises, as your diastasis as it is on the severe side. Best of luck and keep me up to date on how you are getting on.xX
Oh boyyy.. I have only been doing this for like 4 days in a row and my belly feels heavy than before and I’m so sore especially my lower abdomen. I’m not sure if it’s just me but belly looks a little smaller than before. I’m 19 months postpartum. Will show this video to my sis in law so we can do this together ❤️ Thanks for uploading this!
I’ve had 2 kids only 11 months apart and boy did it do a number on my belly. It’s been 2 years in November and I’ve finally been working out for the past 7 months. I’ve lost 70 pounds but my belly has been insanely hard to lose. Very saggy and so much loose skin. I’m on day 2 of this and I’m pretty sore, I can feel it in the right areas and I’m happy! I’ll try my best to keep you guys updated. I know inches play a huge factor but for an example I’m 169pounds, 5’5, and I wear size 14 mainly because of my belly. I will go out and get a measure tape soon!
thank you for choosing this video @satan. Be consistent with doing the video, aim for 4 times a week and be patient, you'll need to do this for at least 4 weeks and combine with daily aerobic exercise or activity and eating healthy foods. Well done for your efforts in losing weight too!
I have had two babies...and it has been almost 2 years since my youngest was born...I have not been blessed with a "bounce back" as everyone said I would experience after my pregnancies. It hasn't felt right either to do heavy core exercises...none of the usual crunches seemed to target the areas I needed...this is the first video that I have hope that my mommy pouch can heal and go back to the flat tummy it once was 5 years ago!! Thank you for your easy, light, and caring exercises!
@Kaitlin Landis 🙏 🤩 thank you for watching my video and for coming by my channel. Be consistent and patient and mindful of eating whole, unprocessed foods and you'll get there. Enjoy the exercises which is fundamental to being consistent and reach out if you need more help. Wishing you every success with healing, tightening and toning your tummy.
@Maryam - I am SO happy to hear that and thrilled the exercises in this video are helping you. Thank you for taking the time to comment and let our UA-cam community here know. Keep going as you are doing just great. ❤️🙏 #Love
So I've been doing this around 3 to 4 times a week for six weeks. At the start measuring around my belly button where it protruded the most was 97cm. Today its 85cm. I've lost a couple of kilos since then but my weight has been fluctuating since I had my third and I've hardly reduced my belly size before. I'll continue on for another month as my core feels so much stronger. I can lift my toddler up and when I get out of bed for the baby I don't risk injuring myself.
@Magz Clifford ❤️🙏 this makes me SO happy to hear, you've lost 12cm from your waist with just 17 minutes 3/4 times a week and being consistent. I feel proud of you! Thank you for following the video Nd choosing this one to dedicate your time too. I'm looking forward to hearing your future results in 4 weeks, I know you'll feel amazing! Magz - I wanted to ask if you would you happy to provide some insights into some planning I am doing for more videos as I'd love your input for research. If you are willing to help would you please direct me on Instagram @bumpandbeyondclub or email me: info@bumpandbeyond.club If not, no worries at all! Vicky Warr, founder Bump and Beyond
Hey, Lost 1 inch from my tummy area in first 3 days only 😀. Did this workout along with intermittent fasting. That 4th exercise is killing me though😅. Will continue and update after 2 weeks.
Sorry for late update 😅 I completed this for 2 months, Afterwards more than focusing on inches, I focused more on getting a strong core, Meanwhile it was found out I had little hernia so I took advice from doctor and continued with this It really helped me a lot, my belly isn't hanging and practically went from size XL to M 😊 so will continue the same I hope all of you who is reading this, will find it helpful
It's been very difficult for me to do exercises due to my csection but I will definitely try these. They look easy to do and not too stressful to that area. Glad this came out on my recommendations 😊
@Monica Denisse - yes c section recovery takes some time, do try these exercises as they will help you. Avoid the last one until you have more strength. Enjoy and pop back here and let me know how you are doing with the exercises.
Doing this tomorrow and definitely will update in 14 days. I had my 3rd c section April 6th and my lower tummy is hanging bad so god willing this works Day 1: The dead bug and side plank twist killed me but I push threw till the end. *Day 2 completed *Day 3 I’m getting better with this workout. I completed the dead bug without stopping 🥲but still struggling with the plank twist. Day 5 completed
Great 😍 Joyce, thank you for choosing this video! Please be aware that this video is not a quick fix and you will need to do it consistently 4 times a week, for at least 4 weeks, 14 days will not be long enough to see results, although I'd love you to check in and let us all know you've been doing the video. Along with good nutrition and daily movement of at least 30 minutes walking or cardio of your choice, you'll see your tummy looking and feeling better. Make sure you have clearance to exercise from your doctor and there are no complications following your birth or prior pregnancy where you have been advised by your doctor not to exercise.
@@BumpandBeyond lol oooh trust me I do way more than this video I do 45 minutes of cardio either on the elliptical or jump rope I drink apple cider vinegar 2x a day & more
@@BumpandBeyond lost 4 inches and went from 3 fingers to one finger. I do all the exercises for 5 minutes so it gives me a challenge. I do this night and day but take a rest on Sunday. Thank you for this video I definitely would have been working out work if it was for this video.
Thank you so much for these simple, yet burning abs exercises for my diastasis recti. My favorite is the dying bug as it's easy enough with just enough burn.
Thank you for choosing my video @Danica! Keep going, consistency is the key! Are there are any other muscles you'd like to tone? Is so, comment below as that way I can create new content for this channel that you'd like. Remember to subscribe for notifications of my new releases (coming soon).
No sabia sobre la diastasis de rectos hasta que tuve a mi segundo hijo. No puedo decir que he sido muy constante pero de haber tenido al rededor de 3cm de separación, puedo sentir que solo queda al rededor de medio cm de separacion despues de tres semanas. Me sorprendió mucho lo rapido que fue. Me encanta sentir que realmente estoy trabajando. Muchas gracias por este video.
Pues se ira solo o por genética yo no noto nada pero me dijeron hace 5 días k k hacia para los separación esa de rectos k era imposible k no se separen fue en la piscina y luego me informé, yo creo k es genética y k soy muy delgada y k he sido gimnasta digo yo..
It’s my first belly workout after having a c section 5 months ago and I’m taking it really slow pausing the video every few seconds 😭 my body is so rusty but I’m sure I’ll get it back gradually like you said not to push our bodies beyond their capacity 🙏🏼 can’t wait to keep it up and see results ! Thanks for posting this and being so positive
@Jennifer D Thank you for your lovely comment. Your body is never rusty, you carried and delivered a baby so your body is amazing to do that! Yes, take your time, aesthetics aside - it's all about gaining strength and healing after a c section. You've taken the first step by doing this video. Well done. I have 2 other specific c section videos too, you may like this one: C Section Exercises After Baby (GET TONED, TIGHT LOWER ABS) ua-cam.com/video/FHJRgZLYdPo/v-deo.html
Bump and Beyond by Vicky Warr thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️ lets hope slowly but surely I’ll get there 💪🏼 you’re definitely giving me so much encouragement and hope
I have had 8 kids in my life time. I am hopeful your work out will help lift the sag after all them kids. I am a bit late getting on it but have made many tries.
This is such a great resource Vicky - you offer so much value and the videos are always so clear and easy to follow. Every new mother should be watching these videos.
Fabulous Vicky ... another great workout. Some of these I've had to skip because of my shoulder injury but it's recovering so I'm doing as much as I can.
I've been working out/weight training (at home) post partum for a little over a year and would see results everywhere except my lower belly. It always measured at 38 inches 😩 and I was in denial that I had diastasis recti because I never felt a gap more than an inch on my midline I thought my stomach was normal, and that I wouldn't benefit from mommy pooch videos like this... BOY WAS I WRONG! This workout was the right amount of challenge and effective 💪💦 also helped strengthen my lower back. Most effective exercises for me was the dying bug and the side to side toe taps. 👍
@Muffie M, 🤸❤️🙏🤗 thank you for your kind comments. I'm super chuffed you've seen results. Keep it going, keep the consistency and keep doing my videos. It feels great to be helping you.
SOOO Helpful! I like that you not only tell me the exercise but actually do the sets as well so i can follow along. The plank one is killing me, but I want to continue to do this and I know I will only get better. After 2 babies and the last one was born almost 4 years ago, I checked if I still had diastasis Recti and its still there specially in my lower belly (mommy pooch) starting on my belly button. So I will be doing this everyday! I lost weight with zumba and now its time for toning!
Hi ..I'm a mom of 3.after the last pregnacy my tummy is totally bulging out..I think I have diastis recti.u have mentioned in the last exercise if u have diastis recti please stop half way...tapping the floor sideways...can u please show us ..so that can have a better understanding.. Thank you
I'm 41 and had a C-section 12 years ago. I lost weight and I'm a size 8 now but my belly skin is a little loose. Will these help with that? I can't afford surgery so I'm trying stuff at home.
I've had diastasis recti since I was pregnant with my son, who is now 22. I just never knew what it was until now that it's gotten really bad and I look pregnant. Hope it's not too late for me! I've read that traditional situps, face down planks, pushups, and swimming can make it worse and I've done all of these exercises extensively over the years!
@ J.C thank you for commenting 🙏🙏. Yes sit ups, planks and push ups in the prone position and some swimming strokes worsen diastasis recti. I'm glad you've found my video to show you the right kind of exercises to do and it's never too late! Enjoy this video, aim to do it 3-4 times a week for 4 weeks and I trust you see some results.
My daughter is about to turn 5 this June. I'm no at 60 kilos from 90 kilos. But my diastasi is still there from my belly button down to my abdomen. It is not as wide as before though but I hope I can close it. Not sure if I can have another child given the pandemic but I hope to do that before another pregnancy happens. Thanks for your helpful videos! ❤️
@thirdeyeblends 🌟 well done for your weight loss, that's fantastic - that places less strain on your abdominals. Keep consistent with this video - aiming for 3-4 times a week for at least 4 weeks. Check your connective tissue strength at your midline rather than the gap, as once you've strengthened the connective tissue, the abdominal muscle comes together with that integrity.
Hello Labwa! I am assuming by what you say that you haven't followed this video and done the exercises with me but you've perhaps watched the intro. I always suggest that you follow along with the exercises as I take you through how to do them and where you would feel each exercise. After the introduction, I start the first exercise where I show you how to wake up your abdominals at 0:58. Let me know after you've finished the video to the end, how you go!
Thank you for this video, my D.R is 4-5 figures in. I hope these excerises will work for me , I have a two year old and just a another baby both by c-section 14months ago thank you again
I think I waited way too far.. she is 9 months now.. and I am still so lazy to move my a*s 🤦🏽♀️ need some motivation tips.. thank you for always being helpful and kind xx
@Elena Lov ❤️🙏congratulations on your new baby and wishing you a graceful recovery. Give yourself time and space. Thank you for coming by my channel. I also have c section exercise videos here too, you may wish to try this one: C Section Exercises After Baby (GET TONED, TIGHT LOWER ABS) ua-cam.com/video/FHJRgZLYdPo/v-deo.html
@jumshida jumshi - thank you! With the breathing, try to breath out (exhale) when you are going into the action phase of the exercise (the exertion). When you breath out, imagine you are zipping up a jacket - from the very lower part of your tummy upwards to your chest but keeping your ribs down at the same time.
The “dead bug” one I think it was called was my favorite because I really felt it where I was supposed to. The side plank I was doing wrong cuz I felt it in my shoulder a lot. I liked your tips as we did them.
🙏🏽 Morgan! I like the 'dead bug' too. With the side plank, when you set yourself up in the position make sure your top hip is stacked directly over your bottom hip and aim to bring your shoulder toward your body as you lift your hips. That should help.
How can you tell when you've closed your diastasis recti? I've been doing the finger test and I can tell I've closed it at the top and bottom but I can't tell if I have a gap at my belly button or not. Can I start on usual exercise now?
Hello mam .im mother 4 months baby..can u plz suggest me ..should i do this exercises??? And how i ll kno healing about diactasis recti recovery ...give me easy tip..
Hi vicky... just wondering if i can do it being 2 years postpartum... if not what do you recommend... i am a absolute beginner no exercise history at all... thanks
This s the first video I m commenting on, I have a 3 .5 year old son and 3months old daughter, both c -sec, planning to start working out, as my belly seems to be outvof shape now, will be trying from tomo, hopefully it works on me, Wish me luck Mam, will update u in 2 weeks time about the result❤️ love from India❤️
Congratulations on bringing your new baby into the world @Yashu priya, you and your body did amazing job. Well done for returning to exercise, listen to my instructions on this video and enjoy!
loved these im 10m po haven’t been checked up but by the way my lower stomach just pops out way more than my top and droops out so much more when on my fours it looks like my organs aren’t attached to my body and just hanging in my stomach ? someone else have this issue ? I felt sum tho with these exercises & hopefully i see results 👏
Thank you 🙏Yovani! It is best to swap white rice for brown rice and to be mindful of portion size. One portion size in a meal is equal to the size of your fist. You wouldn't need any more than this. Balance the rest of your meals with lean protein and plenty of vegetables including green veggies.
Can this still work if I exclude a few of the workouts? Specifically the one we’re you extend your legs out I injured my right leg so I’m limited from some of these but I still need to try
@ Dr. Harman Dr. Maan. As long as your scar has healed, you do not have any pain within the scar area and you have been cleared by your doctor or OBGY to exercise so that there are no reasons that you have been informed to not do any exercise, you are good to get started. Enjoy!
@@BumpandBeyond scar is healed out but having numbness over the incision line…. There is no pain at all but m putting on day by day. As per theories m not able to do weight lifting till six months of c- section. So I wannna know that is it safe to start before six months? It’s fourth month is running
Hello @threads magic. Yes! It's never too late to start, however you must be consistent and do this video for at least 4 weeks. Combined with healthy eating and some cardio-vascular exercise, 30 minutes a day. Please make sure you have clearance from your doctor to exercise.
Hi,i loved your exercises am doing it from 3 days,since its been five years after post delivery,it will be effective if i do it on dialy basis because i still have the diastasis recti tummy.
@shruthi vinod - thank you for watching and super glad you love my exercises! It is never too late to close your diastasis recti. To effectively do this though you need to be doing a combination of this video (4 times a week) with daily walking of 30 minutes and eating unprocessed whole foods in the right portions. It's essential that you activate your deep Transverse 'corset' muscle at the right part of the exercise (in the video I give you the cues) and continue practising that to flatten the tummy. If you have any weight to lose, you need to increase your cardio-vascular exercise (keep it safe) to burn fat so you can reveal the muscle tone. Doing this video every day won't be effective if you are eating a poor diet with fatty, sugary foods or not doing enough fat burning exercise to burn any excess calories your body may be storing. Good luck and start with these to get you going.
Hi I have a 4 finger width diastsis recti, split pelvis and suffer with back ache. Plus a damaged SI joint - (due to car accident ) will this help all those please? Xx
Kindly suggest exercise to be done to flatten mummy tummy after reducing the DR to about 1 finger or can we continue the above exercises to flatten the belly?
@ming Chan - thank you for asking! Yes, I have a video for you here: Postnatal Abs Exercises (Crunch Free) ua-cam.com/video/4JBxF16_HP4/v-deo.html I hope you enjoy it and do leave a comment under the video and tell me your favourite move!
I'm just starting these exercises and am hopeful they'll help. However I can't seem to download the free 7 day reset guide, the link takes me to the main web page to sign up for a program. Help!
Hello @Lauren - thank you for reaching out. We've just refreshed the website and the guide has yet to be added back on. Please would you send an email to me: vicky@bumpandbeyond.club with your email address so I can get this over to you in the meantime. Thank you heaps for watching this video and requesting my guide.
Just learned something new- guess after 14 years I too can get rid of this lower belly weight and I too had/have diastasis recti. I thought there was no hope - now I have something to try and work on with these exercises. It’s never too late.
@Alisha Beanes - I love ❤️ your comment, thank you 🙏 ! Yes it is never too late to give your tummy some love, attention and magic. I hope you have success with these exercises, try to do them consistently 3 times a week for 3 weeks. Let me know how you go! Enjoy.
In another comment simular to this she replied: Aim to do this workout 2-3 times weekly for a month alongside other exercises such as walking 30 minutes or light cardio, and eat healthy to see results
@Precious Moyo, I got a little behind with replying to comments! As Muffie says - aim for 2-3 times weekly of this video (minimum) for a month alongside other exercises such as walking 30 minutes or light cardio, and eat healthy to see results. Results vary and are very individual depending on whether you also have body fat, any hormonal imbalances and food choices. Let me know how you go or how you've been getting on?
Hello there. My youngest is 16 years old and Ive just realised mines a mommy tummy 😑. Will these exercises help me get in shape? In fact this is my only problem area. Thanks in advance.
@Jocelyn Dsouza. Yes these exercises will, I have had women say that by doing this video 3-4 times a week for 3-4 weeks they see results. Bear in mind, your nutrition is also essential for results and to reduce any extra abdominal fat you may have. Sugar and white starchy processed carbohydrates will store as extra fat, so combine following this video with eating lean protein foods and plenty of vegetables
I had my 2 C-section 11 months ago. I checked for diasistis recti and it is 4 finger gap only around the belly button and I have a big belly. Belly button is popping out. Can these exercises help me.
Yes these exercises will help, combined with eating healthy foods and low impact cardio to burn off any excess fat. Please listen to my cues on breathing to activate the correct muscle. ❤️🙏
@@quincyhalley3230 i still doing it, the result is taking while though, but as they say, diastasis need to be healed from inside out, so Will take long i expect, but havent gave up. Hope soon Have some great news here to tell xxx

Ow did you go so far? Any improvement?
Did it work for you? I've lived with mine for 12 years and I thought it was uncorrectable without surgery so I'm going to try these exercises.
Same here.
I do recommend these exercises because you are making the abs strong which keeps them in place but going for a surgery you don’t have those strong muscles and most likely they will go apart again

Look into the bengkung belly wrap
Oh boyyy.. I have only been doing this for like 4 days in a row and my belly feels heavy than before and I’m so sore especially my lower abdomen. I’m not sure if it’s just me but belly looks a little smaller than before. I’m 19 months postpartum. Will show this video to my sis in law so we can do this together ❤️ Thanks for uploading this!
Have you seen any results?
It's been a month and I can see big results. Very nicely explained. Thank you very much
Will this tighten lower belly
Katty Katty good question, I want to know too
I’ve had 2 kids only 11 months apart and boy did it do a number on my belly. It’s been 2 years in November and I’ve finally been working out for the past 7 months. I’ve lost 70 pounds but my belly has been insanely hard to lose. Very saggy and so much loose skin. I’m on day 2 of this and I’m pretty sore, I can feel it in the right areas and I’m happy! I’ll try my best to keep you guys updated.
I know inches play a huge factor but for an example I’m 169pounds, 5’5, and I wear size 14 mainly because of my belly. I will go out and get a measure tape soon!

its been a week and I can already see results. this is the first diastasis recti workout i found that is a good amount of challenge
@Maryam - I am SO happy to hear that and thrilled the exercises in this video are helping you. Thank you for taking the time to comment and let our UA-cam community here know. Keep going as you are doing just great. ❤️🙏 #Love
Yes!! Not having the challenge is such a bummer because I liked to workout somewhat before having LO.
Do we keep belly button in with normal breading all time in all exercises?or it going in and out with normal breading?
Sorry typo *breathing
Love your workout. I just started and can feel my abs working already.😊
Amazing! I have sent this to so many friends. Wish I had found her 4 babies ago!! Better late than never 🤪
So I've been doing this around 3 to 4 times a week for six weeks. At the start measuring around my belly button where it protruded the most was 97cm. Today its 85cm. I've lost a couple of kilos since then but my weight has been fluctuating since I had my third and I've hardly reduced my belly size before. I'll continue on for another month as my core feels so much stronger. I can lift my toddler up and when I get out of bed for the baby I don't risk injuring myself.
@Magz Clifford ❤️🙏 this makes me SO happy to hear, you've lost 12cm from your waist with just 17 minutes 3/4 times a week and being consistent. I feel proud of you! Thank you for following the video Nd choosing this one to dedicate your time too. I'm looking forward to hearing your future results in 4 weeks, I know you'll feel amazing!
Magz - I wanted to ask if you would you happy to provide some insights into some planning I am doing for more videos as I'd love your input for research. If you are willing to help would you please direct me on Instagram @bumpandbeyondclub or email me: info@bumpandbeyond.club
If not, no worries at all!

Hey, Lost 1 inch from my tummy area in first 3 days only 😀. Did this workout along with intermittent fasting. That 4th exercise is killing me though😅. Will continue and update after 2 weeks.
Update plz
Update?
Update!! Pleaseeee
👀
Sorry for late update 😅
I completed this for 2 months,
Afterwards more than focusing on inches, I focused more on getting a strong core,
Meanwhile it was found out I had little hernia so I took advice from doctor and continued with this
It really helped me a lot, my belly isn't hanging and practically went from size XL to M 😊 so will continue the same
I hope all of you who is reading this, will find it helpful
holy crap that workout was like Army bootcamp all over again! Thank you!
This is SO MUCH harder than it looks! Feels great!
I love all your sessions, i was able to see results in 2 weeks
@Rebeccah Nazimuli 🙏😘👏 SO glad to hear that! Stay tuned into my channel and thank you for supporting my videos.
Really. I have two baby.. my second baby one years old.. both delivery c section... my tummy still down am feel bad is this use my situation
Omg Really?! I’m going to start today! 😩😩
@Princess Dia im always confused soo are we supposed to use our ab muscles when doing them? Bc she said not to use muscles when lying down
Looked simple but my core is fired up.
It's been very difficult for me to do exercises due to my csection but I will definitely try these. They look easy to do and not too stressful to that area. Glad this came out on my recommendations 😊
@Monica Denisse - yes c section recovery takes some time, do try these exercises as they will help you. Avoid the last one until you have more strength. Enjoy and pop back here and let me know how you are doing with the exercises.
@@BumpandBeyond thank you so much!
Doing this tomorrow and definitely will update in 14 days. I had my 3rd c section April 6th and my lower tummy is hanging bad so god willing this works Day 1: The dead bug and side plank twist killed me but I push threw till the end. *Day 2 completed *Day 3 I’m getting better with this workout. I completed the dead bug without stopping 🥲but still struggling with the plank twist. Day 5 completed
Great 😍 Joyce, thank you for choosing this video! Please be aware that this video is not a quick fix and you will need to do it consistently 4 times a week, for at least 4 weeks, 14 days will not be long enough to see results, although I'd love you to check in and let us all know you've been doing the video. Along with good nutrition and daily movement of at least 30 minutes walking or cardio of your choice, you'll see your tummy looking and feeling better. Make sure you have clearance to exercise from your doctor and there are no complications following your birth or prior pregnancy where you have been advised by your doctor not to exercise.
@@BumpandBeyond lol oooh trust me I do way more than this video I do 45 minutes of cardio either on the elliptical or jump rope I drink apple cider vinegar 2x a day & more
Day 4 getting better with the side plank twist
@@joycearchie3 How are you doing with this video?
@@BumpandBeyond lost 4 inches and went from 3 fingers to one finger. I do all the exercises for 5 minutes so it gives me a challenge. I do this night and day but take a rest on Sunday. Thank you for this video I definitely would have been working out work if it was for this video.
Thank you so much for these simple, yet burning abs exercises for my diastasis recti. My favorite is the dying bug as it's easy enough with just enough burn.
Thank you for choosing my video @Danica! Keep going, consistency is the key! Are there are any other muscles you'd like to tone? Is so, comment below as that way I can create new content for this channel that you'd like. Remember to subscribe for notifications of my new releases (coming soon).
No sabia sobre la diastasis de rectos hasta que tuve a mi segundo hijo. No puedo decir que he sido muy constante pero de haber tenido al rededor de 3cm de separación, puedo sentir que solo queda al rededor de medio cm de separacion despues de tres semanas. Me sorprendió mucho lo rapido que fue. Me encanta sentir que realmente estoy trabajando. Muchas gracias por este video.
Yo tengo 7 y me enteré de esto ahora , si tengo eso yo me noto nada
Pues se ira solo o por genética yo no noto nada pero me dijeron hace 5 días k k hacia para los separación esa de rectos k era imposible k no se separen fue en la piscina y luego me informé, yo creo k es genética y k soy muy delgada y k he sido gimnasta digo yo..
It’s my first belly workout after having a c section 5 months ago and I’m taking it really slow pausing the video every few seconds 😭 my body is so rusty but I’m sure I’ll get it back gradually like you said not to push our bodies beyond their capacity 🙏🏼 can’t wait to keep it up and see results ! Thanks for posting this and being so positive
@Jennifer D Thank you for your lovely comment. Your body is never rusty, you carried and delivered a baby so your body is amazing to do that! Yes, take your time, aesthetics aside - it's all about gaining strength and healing after a c section. You've taken the first step by doing this video. Well done.
I have 2 other specific c section videos too, you may like this one:

Bump and Beyond by Vicky Warr thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️ lets hope slowly but surely I’ll get there 💪🏼 you’re definitely giving me so much encouragement and hope
I have had 8 kids in my life time. I am hopeful your work out will help lift the sag after all them kids. I am a bit late getting on it but have made many tries.
Stayingalive4life Hill.R did it help, doing these workouts?
This workouts are easy and very gentle to the mommy tummy👌🤞🙌
thank u
I just hope other mommies will find this video ❤
This is such a great resource Vicky - you offer so much value and the videos are always so clear and easy to follow. Every new mother should be watching these videos.
Thank you @TheParentPractice - I love to help new moms from around the world! Let me know which exercise you liked best!
I has a c-section almost 3 years ago. Do you think I'll benefit from this workout. The lover belly fat is driving me insane.
Same question shawanna did you get results from these exercises??? Plz reply
Does this help with overhang as well as pouch?
Fabulous Vicky ... another great workout. Some of these I've had to skip because of my shoulder injury but it's recovering so I'm doing as much as I can.
@The Confident Mother, thank you for watching.Which exercise did you like best?
I've been working out/weight training (at home) post partum for a little over a year and would see results everywhere except my lower belly. It always measured at 38 inches 😩 and I was in denial that I had diastasis recti because I never felt a gap more than an inch on my midline I thought my stomach was normal, and that I wouldn't benefit from mommy pooch videos like this... BOY WAS I WRONG! This workout was the right amount of challenge and effective 💪💦 also helped strengthen my lower back.
Most effective exercises for me was the dying bug and the side to side toe taps. 👍
@Muffie M, 🤸❤️🙏🤗 thank you for your kind comments. I'm super chuffed you've seen results. Keep it going, keep the consistency and keep doing my videos. It feels great to be helping you.
Glad this worked for you so happy for you and in how many weeks did you see it’s working and how many inches your waist now?
When should we do this exercise after food or before or any time
SOOO Helpful! I like that you not only tell me the exercise but actually do the sets as well so i can follow along. The plank one is killing me, but I want to continue to do this and I know I will only get better. After 2 babies and the last one was born almost 4 years ago, I checked if I still had diastasis Recti and its still there specially in my lower belly (mommy pooch) starting on my belly button. So I will be doing this everyday! I lost weight with zumba and now its time for toning!
Hi ..I'm a mom of 3.after the last pregnacy my tummy is totally bulging out..I think I have diastis recti.u have mentioned in the last exercise if u have diastis recti please stop half way...tapping the floor sideways...can u please show us ..so that can have a better understanding..
Thank you
I'm 41 and had a C-section 12 years ago. I lost weight and I'm a size 8 now but my belly skin is a little loose. Will these help with that? I can't afford surgery so I'm trying stuff at home.
Love this. Thank you. Just started my first day and looking forward to the progress in upcoming weeks.
How are you progressing?
Vicky, will this help with lower hanging belly? It's not extreme but enough to play on my confidence.
I've had diastasis recti since I was pregnant with my son, who is now 22. I just never knew what it was until now that it's gotten really bad and I look pregnant. Hope it's not too late for me! I've read that traditional situps, face down planks, pushups, and swimming can make it worse and I've done all of these exercises extensively over the years!
Exactly! I look 15 years pregnant although I workout regularly - but it turns out, I did it wrong all the time...
@ J.C thank you for commenting 🙏🙏. Yes sit ups, planks and push ups in the prone position and some swimming strokes worsen diastasis recti. I'm glad you've found my video to show you the right kind of exercises to do and it's never too late! Enjoy this video, aim to do it 3-4 times a week for 4 weeks and I trust you see some results.
Your voice is everything my goodness. So beautiful
🙏 thank you @tabitha munduru, what a kind thing to say. Enjoy the video, I hope you like the exercises.
Yassss
My daughter is about to turn 5 this June. I'm no at 60 kilos from 90 kilos. But my diastasi is still there from my belly button down to my abdomen. It is not as wide as before though but I hope I can close it. Not sure if I can have another child given the pandemic but I hope to do that before another pregnancy happens. Thanks for your helpful videos! ❤️
@thirdeyeblends 🌟 well done for your weight loss, that's fantastic - that places less strain on your abdominals.
Keep consistent with this video - aiming for 3-4 times a week for at least 4 weeks. Check your connective tissue strength at your midline rather than the gap, as once you've strengthened the connective tissue, the abdominal muscle comes together with that integrity.
How will I know if I’m doing this correctly? How is it supposed to feel?
Hello Labwa! I am assuming by what you say that you haven't followed this video and done the exercises with me but you've perhaps watched the intro. I always suggest that you follow along with the exercises as I take you through how to do them and where you would feel each exercise. After the introduction, I start the first exercise where I show you how to wake up your abdominals at 0:58.
Let me know after you've finished the video to the end, how you go!
Thank you for this video, my D.R is 4-5 figures in. I hope these excerises will work for me , I have a two year old and just a another baby both by c-section 14months ago thank you again
Hey! I m 3 month mother of c sec baby and i m so confused which one video of you about tummy toning / reducing should i follow.
I think I waited way too far.. she is 9 months now.. and I am still so lazy to move my a*s 🤦🏽♀️ need some motivation tips..
thank you for always being helpful and kind xx
Same here
Do we keep the belly button scoped in throughout the exercise(engaged) or it's going in and out with normal breathing?
Helpful! Thanks!
Thank u. I've delivered my baby 7 years ago.. Would this work for me?
The breathing exercises do we only do those laying down or can we get the same results sitting up
Definitely will try this after my c-section recovery.
@Elena Lov ❤️🙏congratulations on your new baby and wishing you a graceful recovery. Give yourself time and space. Thank you for coming by my channel.
I also have c section exercise videos here too, you may wish to try this one:
C Section Exercises After Baby (GET TONED, TIGHT LOWER ABS)
ua-cam.com/video/FHJRgZLYdPo/v-deo.html
I'm malayaali but I'm watching ur vedio I like ur exercise when I'm doing this any breath controlle?
@jumshida jumshi - thank you! With the breathing, try to breath out (exhale) when you are going into the action phase of the exercise (the exertion). When you breath out, imagine you are zipping up a jacket - from the very lower part of your tummy upwards to your chest but keeping your ribs down at the same time.
Also a malayaali
@jumshida jumshi, did you get the best results?
When we can start dese exercises after c section???
I’m 18 months postpartum after having a c section. I have an overhang and a pooch , do you think this could work for me?
The “dead bug” one I think it was called was my favorite because I really felt it where I was supposed to. The side plank I was doing wrong cuz I felt it in my shoulder a lot. I liked your tips as we did them.
🙏🏽 Morgan! I like the 'dead bug' too. With the side plank, when you set yourself up in the position make sure your top hip is stacked directly over your bottom hip and aim to bring your shoulder toward your body as you lift your hips. That should help.
@@BumpandBeyond thank you!
How can you tell when you've closed your diastasis recti? I've been doing the finger test and I can tell I've closed it at the top and bottom but I can't tell if I have a gap at my belly button or not. Can I start on usual exercise now?
Woww the last exercised really intensed i love it 😭 wanna cry and happy in the same time
@Wardati Erna Foods 🙏👏❤️ thank you for trying out the video. Keep going!
Hello mam .im mother 4 months baby..can u plz suggest me ..should i do this exercises???

Love this one

Hi vicky... just wondering if i can do it being 2 years postpartum... if not what do you recommend... i am a absolute beginner no exercise history at all... thanks
@Isma Faisai - you can try it out and pause at an exercise if you are unsure! Yes, try this and have confidence!
This s the first video I m commenting on, I have a 3 .5 year old son and 3months old daughter, both c -sec, planning to start working out, as my belly seems to be outvof shape now, will be trying from tomo, hopefully it works on me, Wish me luck Mam, will update u in 2 weeks time about the result❤️ love from India❤️
Congratulations on bringing your new baby into the world @Yashu priya, you and your body did amazing job. Well done for returning to exercise, listen to my instructions on this video and enjoy!
Update?
Mam does this exercise create lower abdomen pain or back pain ?? Or will it create pain when done wrongly ??? Please reply
loved these im 10m po haven’t been checked up but by the way my lower stomach just pops out way more than my top and droops out so much more when on my fours it looks like my organs aren’t attached to my body and just hanging in my stomach ? someone else have this issue ? I felt sum tho with these exercises & hopefully i see results 👏
Same and i'm also 10m pp i'm doing exercises eating healthy walking but nth is working ;(
@@Aisha0138 we got this i still feel big even tho i’ve came a long way so just be proud of yourself that you’re trying and keep doing it for you💕
Which time is best for exercise?
I have done my delivery last 3 month's and it's normal can I do dis exercise and will it reduce my whole body weight?
Thank you so much I needed this
Loving your videos Vicky. Really need to lose all the mummy pooch 9 months post partum. Should I cut down on white rice? Thx
Thank you 🙏Yovani! It is best to swap white rice for brown rice and to be mindful of portion size. One portion size in a meal is equal to the size of your fist. You wouldn't need any more than this. Balance the rest of your meals with lean protein and plenty of vegetables including green veggies.
You are so great!!!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💗 blessings thanks so much
I had my c section 2 months back. When can I start these exercises? I feel fine. My wound has healed properly from the outside.
@anam gulzar, you sound good to give this video a go! Enjoy, listen to my technique tips and pop back in here and tell me how you got on 😁
I had my baby November 20/20..also a c section
Thanks for this Vicky, really clear and easy to follow.
Thank you Melissa Hood 🙏, let me know which exercise made you feel your tummy muscles the most.
Are these exercises are safe for recti diastasis??
Can this still work if I exclude a few of the workouts? Specifically the one we’re you extend your legs out I injured my right leg so I’m limited from some of these but I still need to try
Can you do planks after a c section?
After how many months of c section we can do this exercise??
How many days will taken for the full result?how many days after I can get back my flat stomach 😭
Can we do all these exercises after csec?
My baby's age is 9 years. Does it work now for my belly?
I had a c-section four months ago… kindly suggest when I can start doing exercises.
@ Dr. Harman Dr. Maan. As long as your scar has healed, you do not have any pain within the scar area and you have been cleared by your doctor or OBGY to exercise so that there are no reasons that you have been informed to not do any exercise, you are good to get started. Enjoy!
@@BumpandBeyond scar is healed out but having numbness over the incision line…. There is no pain at all but m putting on day by day. As per theories m not able to do weight lifting till six months of c- section. So I wannna know that is it safe to start before six months? It’s fourth month is running
great workout! the side workout was very hard for me!
You can do it! Yes the side plank can be tricky. Try it keeping your hips on the floor and just lifting your waist.
Can we do these exercises during pregnancy?
will this help correct a 6 year old c-section pooch?
Hello I have 6years old baby in this this excerise is useful for me
Hello @threads magic. Yes! It's never too late to start, however you must be consistent and do this video for at least 4 weeks. Combined with healthy eating and some cardio-vascular exercise, 30 minutes a day. Please make sure you have clearance from your doctor to exercise.
Hi,i loved your exercises am doing it from 3 days,since its been five years after post delivery,it will be effective if i do it on dialy basis because i still have the diastasis recti tummy.
@shruthi vinod - thank you for watching and super glad you love my exercises! It is never too late to close your diastasis recti. To effectively do this though you need to be doing a combination of this video (4 times a week) with daily walking of 30 minutes and eating unprocessed whole foods in the right portions. It's essential that you activate your deep Transverse 'corset' muscle at the right part of the exercise (in the video I give you the cues) and continue practising that to flatten the tummy. If you have any weight to lose, you need to increase your cardio-vascular exercise (keep it safe) to burn fat so you can reveal the muscle tone.
Doing this video every day won't be effective if you are eating a poor diet with fatty, sugary foods or not doing enough fat burning exercise to burn any excess calories your body may be storing. Good luck and start with these to get you going.
@@BumpandBeyond Thank you so much for the information😊
Hi I have a 4 finger width diastsis recti, split pelvis and suffer with back ache. Plus a damaged SI joint - (due to car accident ) will this help all those please? Xx
I was told surgery is the only way to get rid of my mummy tummy?
İf it is doming belly,can we do these?
Kindly suggest exercise to be done to flatten mummy tummy after reducing the DR to about 1 finger or can we continue the above exercises to flatten the belly?
@ming Chan - thank you for asking!

I had 3 months baby, can i start this now
Hi... I had my c.section 7 months back..and my belly button is totally outside ...can i do dis excercises...
Does this really work? I done none of this and my belly shrink just by losing weight
What motion with your stomach should you be doing to "scoop out"? My brain is not grasping the scoop out deal, lol
@Sally Sicko bring your button in and towards your spine. OR imagine scooping out ice cream from the bottom of a carton, the action is scooping down.
Just learned something new- guess after 14 years I too can get rid of this lower belly weight and I too had/have diastasis recti. I thought there was no hope - now I have something to try and work on with these exercises. It’s never too late.
@Alisha Beanes - I love ❤️ your comment, thank you 🙏 ! Yes it is never too late to give your tummy some love, attention and magic. I hope you have success with these exercises, try to do them consistently 3 times a week for 3 weeks. Let me know how you go! Enjoy.
do these excercises reduce c-section shelf pooch?
How long does it take to see results? And how many times a day should I do this?
Reply must
In another comment simular to this she replied: Aim to do this workout 2-3 times weekly for a month alongside other exercises such as walking 30 minutes or light cardio, and eat healthy to see results
@Precious Moyo, I got a little behind with replying to comments! As Muffie says - aim for 2-3 times weekly of this video (minimum) for a month alongside other exercises such as walking 30 minutes or light cardio, and eat healthy to see results. Results vary and are very individual depending on whether you also have body fat, any hormonal imbalances and food choices. Let me know how you go or how you've been getting on?
it’s been 15 years since my son was born, can i still get a flat stomach results?
It’s never too late! Give it time (3-4 days a week) for 4+ weeks
Have got been doing this ? If so what are your results ?
Have undergone c section and I have 11 month old baby. My tummy is too fat.. can I get rid of fat tummy...by doing this..?
Hi, can you please also suggest some exercises for weakness and pain in lower back after delivery
@Ayesha Zahir - I've noted this and will look into some exercises for you. Will upload soon!
@@BumpandBeyond sure please, thanks a lot
Hello there. My youngest is 16 years old and Ive just realised mines a mommy tummy 😑. Will these exercises help me get in shape? In fact this is my only problem area. Thanks in advance.
@Jocelyn Dsouza. Yes these exercises will, I have had women say that by doing this video 3-4 times a week for 3-4 weeks they see results. Bear in mind, your nutrition is also essential for results and to reduce any extra abdominal fat you may have. Sugar and white starchy processed carbohydrates will store as extra fat, so combine following this video with eating lean protein foods and plenty of vegetables
@@BumpandBeyond thank you for responding and stay blessed.
How to breath while we doing exercise confused
I had my 2 C-section 11 months ago. I checked for diasistis recti and it is 4 finger gap only around the belly button and I have a big belly. Belly button is popping out. Can these exercises help me.
Yes these exercises will help, combined with eating healthy foods and low impact cardio to burn off any excess fat. Please listen to my cues on breathing to activate the correct muscle. ❤️🙏
My tummy doesn't want to do the scoop belly look..it protruded outward
Started on wednesday 10th june, want to see how long is going to take for the result. great vídeo. Thank you ❤
Hi did u get any result
Did u continue this?
@@quincyhalley3230 i still doing it, the result is taking while though, but as they say, diastasis need to be healed from inside out, so Will take long i expect, but havent gave up.
