EXERCISES TO AVOID If You Have Diastasis Recti

[@davidandericafrazer6586]

3 years post-partum after our 5th child, I was able to get my 3 finger-width gap down to 1 finger thanks to Ashley's workouts. Gone now are my back pains and now I can enjoy doing her Firm 30 workout! Thanks Ashley!

[@heatherwilks6575]

I have still never heard a medical professional mention diastasis recti in all the prenatal and postpartum care I've received throughout 3 pregnancies, so I am thankful to you, Ashley, for educating us so well! I completed the 12 wk Post Pregnancy Plan for the 3rd time a couple months ago and can testify to its effectiveness!

[@Cloggindancer]

Thank you! The 12 week post pregnancy program helped this 40 something year old body recover fully after my third baby!

[@glowbodypt]

What an encouragement from a mom of 3 in your 40's! Thank you for sharing your success. : D

[@libbyryba6428]

Super thankful for the thoughtful programming of the 12 week PostPartum plan. I don’t have to think about whether the exercise is safe or not and can save time getting back in shape.

[@amymeyer4032]

This is the best explanation I've heard regarding diastasis recti and the visuals are super helpful. I'm still pregnant but preparing myself for later!

[@glowbodypt]

Glad it was helpful! Congrats on your pregnancy and it’s a pleasure to meet you. 🩷

[@tarabeam2670]

I’ve done your 12 week postpartum plan with each of my two pregnancies, and I got back into excellent shape quickly and easily! No remaining gap in this core, and I am not a spring chicken (36 years old and pregnant with baby boy #3!)! God bless you for this excellent information! You are building a powerful ministry. I celebrate your life!

[@charitypering6095]

I'm so grateful for women like this who know how important appropriate exercises at the appropriate time is! Avoiding & preventing DR has been so important for day to day life & for trying fun new things with my kids!

[@DianaBotello-w1i]

Thank you Ashley! I had severe diastasis recti after my last pregnancy. Just like Ashley said in this video, I just wanted to cover it up. I was able to accurately check my gap with Ashley's help and was able to fix my gap from more than a hand width to one or two fingers today thanks to her 12 week plan! I feel more confident than I have in years and am able to keep up with both of my kids, playing with them and staying active together.

[@CarolynPhelps-t4v]

I had no idea I was making my DR worse after my twin pregnancy! Definitely did a lot of these exercises. Thanks for the education.

[@darlamckelvey148]

So thankful I knew these exercises to avoid that often make diastasis recti worse! My pelvic floor was so weak after my big babies! I so glad I had these tools to heal!

[@sarahtapley3722]

I’m so grateful I learned about Diastasis Recti after my first child. I didn’t have it after the first baby but the second baby was 9lb 3oz and I’m a petite lady so I had about a 3 finger gap after he was born and I at least knew to get it checked and where to start. I started going to a Pelvic Floor PT but I realized the exercises they were having me do were the same ones Ashley had us doing so I just did her program . After my 3rd I did her whole postpartum plan and healed my DR without having to go to PT.

[@jubew.7067]

If anyone watching this is pregnant and has not yet downloaded Ashley’s free prenatal plan, you should get it now! There’s no catch, it’s just safe, challenging, trimester tailored, click and go workouts that Ashley has just decided to bless women with. Don’t miss out. She had me in the best shape of my life by the end of my pregnancy. Not by doing anything overly strenuous, but by keeping me consistent and motivated. There’s nothing like it out there! Thanks for keeping us so informed, so we ca n take of ourselves Ashley!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@glowbodypt]

The FREE Prenatal Program to download if you are pregnant: www.glowbodypt.com/prenatalworkouts --> @jubew.7067 Thank you so much for sharing your positive feedback! Well done to YOU for putting in the workouts and taking such outstanding care of yourself and your family.

[@emb.9689]

I found glowbodypt when I was pregnant with my 3rd little man and this woman has changed my life for the better. I'm just about to finish the 12 week ppp for the second time after having my fourth little guy 🥰 I love your programs so much!

[@sav-beau]

Your care for postpartum women is unmatched, I am so excited and thankful to go through the 12 week pp plan again!

[@cambriagang809]

As a three time C-section mommy I can absolutely agree with Ashley on re-wiring brain to muscle connection. When you have to have a cesarean, one potential side effect is that nerve damage can happen down around your scar/lower abs. It feels really weird not being able to feel properly. I have found through the 12-week program and now the 10 minute plan, that exercising and consciously thinking about engaging my lower ab muscles has actually led to me regaining some awareness of sensation down around my scar/lower abs. I still can't feel everything, I don't know if I will be able to, but actively focusing on those muscles has helped me to not be as bothered about it--Thank you so much!

[@ann-aubreyreid3211]

I LOVED Ashley's 12 week post pregnancy plan. After following her through the free KZbin pregnancy program I knew I could trust her to get myself back after baby. I remember being excited to buy it as a gift to myself and not one thought of buyers remorse. Before I had my daughter at the end of 2023 I had a hernia repair and I was nervous I'd lose my core strength through a year of healing from surgery and then having our daughter. Her videos pushed me to get my strength back, my core back, and all around my physical health. Tough workouts, a great coach and the mom cookbook you won't regret it. Thanks Ashley!!! ❤

[@tarabartolain8365]

Super helpful! You offered great visuals and examples of what to do and not to do. I really appreciate that! Thank you so much for posting this video. I enjoyed the 12-week program. LOVE it!! I also want to say 'thank you' for all of the delicious meals in your cookbook! My favorites are the pre-workout cookie dough bites and PMS Brownies 😊

[@amyarenas1168]

I'm 34 with 4 kids and my core is the strongest it's ever been because of your programs. Thank you for all the time you put into educating and loving on us mommas, you are so inspiring!

[@thefullershomevideos]

You need to watch this video! i love the information and advice Ashley gives, i could not find this information anywhere else on diastasis recti and i am so thankful that i found Glow Body PT. I feel so much more knowledgable and empowered by her videos and her 12 week Postpartum Plan. It is worth the small investment for the amazing results and support you get from Ashley. Looking forward to starting the 12 week plan again after i have my twins!

[@natalieyoung1352]

Great information and you deliver it in such a relatable way that anyone could understand! 😊 Your programs work wonders and I refer everyone I know to your programs! Thank you Ashley & team!!❤❤

[@MVlieger-kx2rz]

Postpartum with baby #4, following a twin pregnancy, and on week 1 of the 12 week postpartum program. I appreciate how it is safe to do postpartum and takes the guess work out of exercising correctly while my body continues to heal!

[@SarahDyer-n8j]

Ashley’s 12 week postpartum program and informational videos like these allowed me to heal my DR after my 3rd baby from almost 4 to 1.5 fingers. I just wish I would’ve known about her after my first pregnancy with my twins as it would have made such a huge difference in my recovery.

[@glowbodypt]

Hi, it's Ashley! Congratulations on closing down your gap from almost a 4 down to 1.5 after your 3rd baby plus as a mother of twins! Please email me: [e-mail] no later than Thursday this week with your name and mailing address. : D

[@kathrynflaspohler5338]

I'm just starting to look into different workout programs at 6mo postpartum with baby number 6 and I really appreciate all of the information your channel provides. I'm really excited to try the 12 week post pregnancy plan!

[@glowbodypt]

Baby number 6! That's outstanding, Kathryn. I am confident the follow-along videos will be *so relatable* for you as you spot my 7-9 month on the screen, and sometimes the "big" kids. It is very much real mom-life, no time wasted, you'll feel ultra productive as you do each routine and incredibly rewarded after each workout and by the progress you make. I'm excited for you.

[@AshleyCampbell-vl5dk]

I can’t say enough about how thankful I am for Ashley/Glowbodypt! I had horrible back pain from my scoliosis during pregnancy when I started the prenatal plan. I’m not kidding, after one video my pain and mobility improved, and after a couple of weeks, the pain was totally gone. I’ve since done the 12 week post pregnancy plan. I had a 4.5 finger gap that was down to 1 finger after 8 weeks!! Currently, I’m doing the 10 minute plan, and I’m amazed at the progress my body has made in appearance and also in strength! Nothing has ever helped my back pain like these plans and Ashley’s stretching/mobility videos. Also, the mom cookbook is INCREDIBLE!

[@chrissyberges9256]

Due in 20 days! Can’t wait to get your 12-week program and get started to heal!

[@glowbodypt]

Due in 20 days!! Congrats to you, Chrissy. I'm so excited for you!

[@KayNic-go1tw]

Thank you for this info! I did not realize how many every day movements need to be adjusted to avoid making DR worse! No more high crunching out of bed!

[@lightboxmedia6028]

I found Ashley and her workouts when pregnant with my 2nd. I had such weakness in my abdomen after my first and I could never figure out why. She has taught me so much and her workouts took my DR from 4 fingers to completely healed with the 12 week post pregnancy plan. I'm so grateful to be able to play and jump and run with my kids again without the worry of leaks or back pain! 🙏

[@katiet5656]

Thank you for not just teaching us what workouts to do post partum but also teaching what to avoid and all about Diastasis Recti. If you’re on the fence like I was- just do the 12 week post pregnancy plan. I have zero regrets!

[@aradanceproject]

I agree with other commenters that the only time diastasis recti was mentioned to me throughout my two pregnancies and postpartum periods was a brief check by my OB at my follow-up appointment, where she said I had it but it would close on its own. I'm beyond thankful to have found Ashley's far more helpful content that educates us on what the reality is: for most women, it won't just magically close on its own, and there's a specific way to train the abs to progressively knit them back together. As a professional dancer, it's been really important for me to get my abs back in shape as quickly as possible. I'm happy to report that I have a 1-finger width gap or less at all sections of my abs thanks to two iterations of Ashley's 12-week postpartum plan! I am also stronger and more fit than I've ever been before, even after two babies, thanks to that plan and her other fitness plans. It's easy to follow, well-structured, and very encouraging, and the amazing results of so many other women totally speak for themselves.

[@barbaravezovnik9603]

I have never been keen to exercising until two years ago when I injured my knee. I started doing few exercises but they never really challenged me. When I got pregnant and found Ashley's videos I was beyond happy. I really felt great I loved the workouts, and her words of encouragement and wisdom helped and taught me so much. Never before I even heard about diastasis recti. I also just completed 12weeks post pregnancy plan and I am in my greatest form I have ever been. ❤️

[@aprilkhaito]

My midwife actually recommended planks to restrengthen my core after baby. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Thankfully I had already gone through the 12 week postpartum plan with my second child and knew not to follow that advice. I really appreciate not only that you show us how to regain strength and mobility postpartum but you address real life issues moms may face.

[@castellum123]

Thank you Ashley! I will always refer my mom friends to you. Such wisdom and encouragement. ♥️ So grateful for you.

[@Megolomart489]

I would NEVER have known what Diastasis Recti was if it were not for Ashley's Pre & Post-Natal workout plans. Not one medical practitioner ever mentioned it to me! Because of Ashley I learned how to take care of my abs during and after my pregnancy, and am vocal to all women about Ashley's tips and precautions. I plan on log-rolling to the side until I die! Thank you Ashley!

[@glowbodypt]

Meg, thanks so much for sharing this and I had to chuckle about log rolling 'til you die'! haha : )

[@ElizabethEllis-sx7cd]

This video is so helpful as a reminder of the harmful movements with Diastasis Recti. I am a physical therapist and collegiate runner and love Ashley’s programs as I feel I actually get a good strength workout. I did her 12 week PP plan after my second pregnancy and noticed a huge difference in my strength.

[@glowbodypt]

Hi Elizabeth, this is so encouraging to hear from you! Please shoot me an email today with your mailing address! Your name came up. [e-mail]

[@mocklingmama]

So helpful! I spent a year making my DR worse by doing a lot of these exercises, not even knowing I had a 3 finger DR. So glad I found your 12 week PP plan and brought my 3 finger gap down to a 1. life changing!

[@glowbodypt]

Amazing to hear yu got your 3 finger gap down to 1.

[@milkandhoneymeadows]

Ashley is a leader in this field! So thankful I found her years ago to start my health journey!! She is amazing and her techniques are not only doable but they are empowering! So thankful for her heart to pour into women, and her wisdom in the health world!!

[@Earthtoisla]

Just started your 12 week postpartum plan and I cannot thank you enough! The Lord has blessed me by showing me your KZbin. I’ve learned so much from you and can feel my stomach gap closing already! Thanks for all of the info and helping me not further injure my self!

[@laurenmcintire1387]

Worked through your 12 week pp plan with baby #2-39 weeks pregnant with #3 and I’m already excited to do it again! Love Ashley’s plans and how they allow me to feel fit and motivated with just working out from home! Such a blessing in my life!

[@meganschroeder3944]

I just had a 6th baby 3 weeks ago. This video couldn't have been posted at a better time!! Thank you!

[@JessicaGunjak-rz7vv]

12 week PPP was so great to get me back into exercise and heal my abs. Also, love the visuals in this video and Ashley’s breakdown for everything! Thank you GlowbodyPT!

[@BarbaraM7-1]

I love how Ashley explains everything in such simple terms that anyone can understand! I have gained so much wisdom about my body, and confidence and motivation to take care of my body through her prenatal workout plans as well as the 12 week postpartum program. Thanks Ashley!

[@ElizabethPorter-np1ip]

Thank you! I used your 12 week post pregnancy plan after baby #1 and it was so nice to be able to do workouts that I knew were not only safe for my core but strengthening them to get back to normal. I then went on to do the 10 minute plan, the bonus run a faster 5k plan included, and LFSC plan all within the first year postpartum. Not only did you help me strengthen my core, you’ve also helped my knees and I’ve been running better than ever before! And that’s all post C-section. I am confident the 12w PPP will help me in similar ways after this next delivery!

[@cultivatingcatholics]

Been following through 6 kids in 7 years girl. I mean it when I say you have CHANGED my life ❤❤

[@mariamakri1271]

Thank you Ashley for all your advice and hard work. The 12 weeks ppp is the best program out there to feel well in your body and soul

[@josieakre4195]

It's so nice to see a list of exercises to do and not to do with examples. I'm sure I will use what I learned with future postpartum recovery. You are such a great teacher. Thank you!

[@elizabethwhitney4836]

This is so helpful!! Thank you. I am doing the 12 week postpartum plan and love how it is making me a more disciplined mom. Love the wisdom you share in every video, so encouraging spiritually and physically.

[@lauravanderzwaard9387]

This is such important information for moms. I checked mine before and after the 12 week post partum program and it is almost healed. So glad I found glow body pt during my pregnancy ❤

[@abbysparks9469]

LOVE the 12 week post pregnancy plan and have gone through it after all three of my pregnancies and recommend it to all of my expecting friends. I regain confidence and muscle tone every time. Ashley’s concern for abdominal integrity throughout the plan leaves me assured I’m only helping my postpartum body thrive. BETTER BODY AFTER BABY! And the transition to the 10 minute plan is brilliant - such a wonderful plan for moms of small children with limited time for working out.

[@melissaheitzman4268]

Ashley helped me with all my pregnancies and postpartum period. I feel stronger than before I had my 3 babies. She is amazing!

[@Jordan-ds6co]

Love all your programs, Ashley! You helped me heal my ab gap after having my first baby and hopefully I will get to do all those programs again the future. I would have been lost without the easy click and go videos. Totally takes out the guesswork.

[@11allamericangirl]

It’s so true about work outs being good for your ab separation and some that will make it worse! Thanks for sharing videos to help mamas better their strength and balance and overall health of their bodies!

[@tarahperna2809]

Thank you Ashley for another informative video! So grateful for you and making me feel like I am not alone in the struggle of closing the diastasis gap!

[@dhiadheute]

You are so helpful! Thank you for taking the time to do your videos. I did the free pregnancy program and just completed the 12 week pp plan. No gap here!

[@Sarah-pr7jp]

Thank you, Ashley, for all your workout plans including the 12 week PP plan! If you want to close your diastasis recti safely and fast this is the plan for you! Her other plans are fantastic as well. Thank you!!

[@MeghanIKirk]

I'm definitely prone to the 'spilling bucket' posture, especially after three pregnancies, and baby wearing all of them for a year plus. Great tips for fixing that. The 12 Week PP plan helped me to strengthen hamstrings and glutes. More than worth the cost! They really are perfect for our busy family, and I love that my girls see me working out and join in.

[@glowbodypt]

Meghan, it's Ashley. I'm so glad this cue about the bucket was helpful for you and happy to hear you found the 12 Week Post Pregnancy Plan more than worth the cost for what it did for you as a mother. Please email me: [e-mail] no later than Thursday this week if you could with your mailing address! I want to send you something.

[@haleyevans7935]

Ashley is so inspiring! You will wish you could be her friend. She’s friendly, encouraging, and fit! Her 12 week post pregnancy plan was effective to healing my DR I had from my 3 pregnancies and I am so thankful! Her workout routines are not lame at all. You know you are putting in some work to get big results!

[@meredithhighmark7658]

Ashley helped me immensely post partum! I started her programs over a year after having my 4th baby and NO ONE ever told me about or informed me about diastasis recti like she did! She is a wealth of information, trains you like no other and pours Godly wisdom into you whiles you’re exercising. My FAVE thing about her videos is that her kids pop up in them (which mine love) and you know she isn’t ever going to say anything or wear anything that I don’t want my kids exposed to! She is THE BEST OF THE BEST!

[@darylsue7663]

So excited to start Ashley's 12 week post pregnancy plan in two weeks! I'm 6 weeks PP with baby #3 and will be doing the fun workouts in this program for the second time. Love this channel!!!

[@bananersify]

Thank you for all the tips and guidance. It's such an encouragement to see that it's possible to heal and not settle for weakness.

[@kirstenlowe5326]

I just had my 5th baby, 6 weeks ago. I’m getting ready to begin Ashley’s 12 week postpartum plan next week. I’m really excited about it. I did the plan after my 4th baby and saw amazing results and felt fantastic. Im so thankful for Ashley’s hard work in making these videos and plans as well as her support and love for the Lord.

[@judeecordell3031]

I didn't know how important it was to understand DR until doing Ashley's 12 week postpartum plan. So important to improve this postpartum!

[@tishaperkins85]

You are such an inspiration. Thank you for sharing your knowledge! I’m on the first week of your 12 week PPP and loving it!

[@ChristinaM.-sy5is]

SO helpful! Such good information and strong witness... I definitely have been motivated by Ashley's focus on being a better wife and mother, not simply going for personal looks. Thank you!

[@claudindcosta416]

Ashley u r a god given gift to help every woman who’s got DR post pregnancy..I made the best decision to take your PP plan post my 2nd baby and religiously followed all the exercises and closed my DR .Also took her 10 mins plan which not only helps to burn calories but also strengthen yo core n body. Thanku Thanku Ashley for your plans which genuinely made a positive impact on my body. Honestly it’s worth the money

[@TescaMichaelson-xy7hn]

I so appreciate your 12 week PP plan. Currently on week 5 and it is great to not have to worry if these exercises are safe or not. Looking forward to the next 7 weeks!

[@opalavery8914]

This is very helpful, informative and directly to the point. Thank you, Ashley!

[@maDPerkes]

It's amazing to me how much I've learned about my body and health as I've followed Ashley on the PPP. Not only do I get a quality workout but I'm also learning how to take care of my body in the best way possible.❤

[@chalesehafen2796]

This is such a great video. I wish I'd known all this after having my first baby, but was so glad to find glowbodypt during my 2nd pregnancy and followed the 12 week ppp after babies 2 and 3 to help heal my DR

[@leahramey9857]

Such an important topic that isn't talked enough about. My PCM with my first child said I could go back to push ups and situps for my Army APFT at 6 weeks pp. I still had DR and was grateful for Ashley's program to ensure I healed things before I started those exercises a couple months later.

[@lauralittlejohn-dm9vw]

Thank you! I wasn’t aware of distastis recti with my first child. I went back to my previous workouts as soon as my doctor cleared me. I had back pain and I suspect it’s because of my weak core. With my second, I did your 12 week plan and it’s made a world of difference. No back pain. Also, I’ve been able to get back into running without injury. Very glad my friend told me about the 12 week pp plan!

[@crystalgibson8058]

Thanks again, Ashley, for all the great tips! You're programs are awesome!

[@MsSunshine222]

This was so helpful for when I started working out again. It's an information overload out there and Ashley really helped me understand what works!

[@Whyva]

I'm on week 9 of Ashley's 12 week plan and loving it . The workouts are challenging and effective. I think I will purchase 10 min plan next.

[@RachelGmamaof3]

I did your workouts through 2/3 of my pregnancies and loved them to pieces. They kept me strong and feeling good overall. I don't doubt any of the postnatal aren't just as amazing!

[@helenjoycoetsee-neeclark1607]

I'm so so glad that my sister introduced me to Glowbody PT! I had a baby 5 years ago and never even knew about a Diastasis recti ab gap.. I did however know that I could no longer jump on a trampoline! And found it really hard to not have a leaky bladder when trying to do running races. 4 years after my first pregnancy I was determined to find help and sort out my pelvic muscles. THEN I fell pregnant again with a second baby blessing! I am 31 weeks now and have followed Ashley's Prenatal Fitness programme since 8 weeks and have absolutely loved it! I will definitely be doing the Post Natal Programme so that this time I address my Diastasis Recti Ab Gap finally! Thank you Glowbody PT!!!!

[@jessicaglasson5845]

This was so informative! I’m so grateful for your plans Ashley, and for these great free videos! The 12 week post pregnancy plan really helped me prioritize my health and encouraged me it’s not only okay to work out with my kids awake, but GOOD for them to see my taking care of myself so I can be the mom I want to be. I began seeing fitness as functional, not just aesthetic, and that mindset shift has helped me prioritize it more!

[@CharmaineMagne]

Thank you for these great reminders!!! Having done your pregnancy plan, post pregnancy plan and 10-minute plan, I still find myself doing some of the things you mentioned at the beginning. You definitely taught me that doing those hardcore 'ab' exercises that we are all exposed to out there are not the way to go for properly healing after a baby. I'm forever grateful 🙏

[@krystlearcamoknezevich8139]

Love the belt buckle trick! Still working through the 12 wk post partum plan. Love the quick efficient workouts!

[@Jesusmoon23]

Absolutely love your 12 Week Post Pregnancy Plan! It's so motivating to see my body heal after giving birth and with such great exercises. Your 12 wk pp has made me stronger and confident. I'm not quite halfway through but I'm already noticing a huge difference! It's the best part of my day :) Thank you so much!

[@BriBerry-yc5uv]

Thanks Ashley for another great video! In my 3rd pregnancy and learning so much from your prenatal program about how to protect myself now from DR and take care of my body as it recovers after baby. Such a fan of you and all the resources you share!

Thank you for more great content! Ashley always has great workouts and is so good at explaining the why behind things.

[@lexiwogen2331]

Taking the time to heal properly by following a program that is effective, time sensitive, and Christ centered, has been the best “self-care” thing I have done after having our 4 babies. The 12 week postpartum plan is a most have for all new (and veteran) mommas. To recover from the crazy and miraculous things your body goes through to have a baby. Thank you Ash for all the time and commitment you put in to caring for your GlowBodyPT sisters! We are all grateful! 🥰

[@HeatherSjogren]

No nurse or doctor involved in my pregnancy ever mentioned diastasis recti- it wasn't until 18 weeks pregnant that I came across Ashley's prenatal workouts and this video. It was so helpful for me to be aware of what I could do to protect myself as much as possible!

[@andreaowens5128]

Thank you for this video, I think the visuals of exercises and postures to avoid are very helpful!

[@ameriwether6]

Ashley’s 12 Week Postpartum plan has been wonderful for me as I recovered from giving birth. It is such a relief that she has already done the research for me and has tailored the workouts to be appropriate for my postpartum body. She has also encouraged me to not feel guilty about working out while my baby is awake; that my good health is important for my whole family as a unit, and it’s okay to let the baby play around me while I workout.

[@VivianeGrandpierre]

This 12w program helped me soo much PP, both physically and emotionally ❤️❤️ thanks Ashley!

[@ellenpelletier7631]

Thanks for the tips. I like how you gave a tangible means to check one's tilt by using a belt.

[@baileysmith2398]

This was so informative! I did the post pregnancy plan after my first and did the prenatal plan throughout my second pregnancy. I can’t wait to do the post partum plan again. It was a lifesaver for my first.

[@brendabeans4986]

So helpful! Saving this for when I'm postpartum. I'm currently 24 weeks with my second and loving the prenatal workout program!

[@melaniegraham5179]

This informed me on what I was doing wrong and helped me gain my confidence as I was guided in the correct direction.

[@amandatruelove1951]

I am so grateful to have found Ashley's free prenatal program while I was pregnant with my 5th child. I was able to complete the program and then worked through her 12 week post partum program. Today is my graduation day! 🥳 Not only do I feel stronger, but my diastasis recti has improved immensely. My worst separation was happening above and at the navel (3.5 to 4 finger widths & 1.5 knuckles deep). After the program I've closed it down to 1.5 & 2 finger widths with a depth of only halfway to the first knuckle! Her workouts were challenging, yet doable. And getting back into exercising has been a total mood booster! Now moving on to the 10 minute plan! Thanks, Ashley!

[@carolineceg]

Thankful for the encouragement & hope to move forward!!

[@kianaosagiede367]

She is a hero for moms!! I’m telling you. So informative and to the point and has changed my life and health habits for the better. I honestly feel like D.R. Is the cause of more health concerns then people even realize and carry with us even way after having babies and knowing now and how to pretty much reverse that is unbelievable. Truly recommend her program!!! Us mammas deserve it for ourselves

[@16kiwis]

I just had my 5th baby and I've followed Ashley's plans for years. Each one is worth it! She's not only giving you exercises but explaining why it is good or bad during the phase of life you're in. That's what is so important! It helps you connect better and become stronger. I'm confident I'm stronger and more fit now than I was pre-babies. I've grown so much with her inspiration, she's creating better moms ❤

[@Hannah_MK]

I have so appreciated your content! I did your postpartum course once after having my fourth baby, and really enjoyed it! I am pregnant again and doing the prenatal program. It is great because it’s challenging but safe for pregnancy.

[@SP-cf8wy]

Thanks Ashley! Great info I wish I had years ago. I will be sure to pass it on to new & expecting moms!

[@haleykillian1317]

I’ve had 3 babies and have never been checked for DR, but I definitely have it. I’m currently 38 wks pregnant with baby #4 and just bought the 12 week postpartum plan. I’m excited to finally fix my ab gap!
