Well, hey there, today we're going to be talking about the core, and we're going to go a little bit more in-depth about traditional core work and crunches, bicycle crunches, V-ups, planks, all the things, all things that are really great, but if you have a very weak

core, you're recently postpartum, or you have diastous recti, it cause you issues and the reason this episode was

born like many of the episodes I do is from interactions with you with people on

social media on my deliciously fit and healthy handle on my

make it simple podcast handle just questions or comments or in dealing with

clients and some of the questions and comments they have.

And I realized you may be like me,

where you want to know the why behind being told something.

I'm someone where if you told me to stop at a stoplight and you never told me why I'd be like I'm not stopping I'm going to keep going but if someone when they're teaching me explains you stop at a stoplight because then the car's on the opposite side

didn't know the background, he would do it. But me, I have to know why, why, why,

but it also helps things become more meaningful. So today I want to talk

about crunches and traditional ab work and having diasties and being recently postpartum or just a week core and why those things can cause you

problems. I posted a post this week where I showed a modification for bicycle crunches and I got a lot of questions on it with people kind of not understanding.

Now the exercise I showed worked very similar muscles but it just didn't create some of the pressure down the center of the

core line which if you have d r that could be beneficial but you could still work

those same muscles then I got an email from someone who just recently bought my

daisasis recti guide and she was asking a couple

questions and one of the things that she pointed out was that she's had a lower stomach that

she hasn't been able to get rid of for a while and through listening to
