Summary

Today's episode goes in depth about traditional core work and the "why" behind healing any injuries before fully engaging in certain exercises in order to make your workouts effective. Andrea explains examples of physical factors such as diastasis recti, recent post-partum, or a weak core and why they can cause problems when engaging in crunches and traditional core work. Working your way back to traditional core work is possible for everyone with the right education and information.
