BEST DIASTASIS RECTI Maintenance Workout | 8 Minute Week Challenge by GlowBodyPT

[@mamawingfamily]

I loved this! Just finished Determined in my last week of round 2 Firm 30 and added this one afterwards. It was a perfect reminder to keep up the DR maintenance. This was the perfect ending to my morning workout. Thanks for making these videos! I’m excited to try the rest after I finish this last week of Firm 30 before I do it again. I can’t get enough and I’m STILL challenged in the workouts.

Morning workout done! ✅ Thank you for the free workouts!!

[@glowbodypt]

So glad to hear you did this already today Macey and I hope you'll continue to keep me updated how the challenge goes for you!

[@lindiburnett5983]

This is the one I was the most excited for!!! After doing the PPP three times through, my DR is technically still like 2/2.5 fingers at my naval. I can't wait to do this in the morning ❤

[@Theholisticlife333]

Same! But the rest is like 1-1.5

[@glowbodypt]

PERFECCCCCCT! You're going to love this one.

[@Williamsonwolfpack]

Great workouts!! I love the short and sweet BUT effective workouts! Easier to get in each day!

[@glowbodypt]

So glad to hear you appreciate this style of training! How many kids do you have?

[@Williamsonwolfpack]

@@glowbodypt I have 4. Ages 12, 10, 6.5, and 4. I work full time in a corporate consulting role and recently stood up my own executive coaching business. So working out always tends to be the last thing I prioritize and the first thing I skip. But I’ve recently found how important it is as a mom to focus on my health and wellness and trying to find easy ways to “move” each and every single day, even it’s just 5-10 mins at a time.

I love how you added some background music. Little fun added bonus from other videos!

[@amandalock3158]

Thank you for sharing these workouts! I also so appreciate you sharing scripture in there. Often I don't listen to the speaking in workout videos but this time I was sure to listen, reflect and pray during. Such a refreshing change!

[@glowbodypt]

wow, thank you so much for sharing this feedback Amanda.

[@LindsayChinainSimpson]

Just finished the first day of the challenge and I feel so good after a rut of not working out for a month or two (....or maybe three). Thank you also for being so open with us. It's easy to think that anyone who puts their life out there on the internet is perfect and we can never measure up. You are amazing and a REAL woman. Thank you for sharing that scripture! I really needed it too. Going to start working on memorizing it now! Have a blessed day, I'll have a sweaty one thanks to you :)

[@Megolomart489]

thank you so much, Ash, for this continuation (from the PP workout plan) of Diastasis Recti exercises! Really needed these, you are the best!

[@glowbodypt]

So glad to hear this was JUST what you needed Meg! Thanks for letting me know.

[@LydiaHombel]

Thank you so much for this free resource! this is what i needed in order to get time to workout during my day. This was amazing!

[@glowbodypt]

So glad this 8-minute lenth is perfect for you during your busy days Lydia!

[@chalesehafen2796]

Thanks so much for this, I need it. Especially that oblique stretch at the end!

[@jcole1996]

Great break from my normal Firm 30 workout. Perfect for summer insane travel schedule - thank you!!

Thank you Ashley for not only helping us be good stewards of our bodies, but also good stewards of our souls! God bless you in this unique and necessary apostolate the Lord has entrusted to you!

[@glowbodypt]

thank you SO MUCH for your encouragement and I hope you'll let me know how this challenge continues to go for YOU!

[@hapruitt.anelthalien]

Thanks so much for this video! ❤

[@saracarter683]

Awe I’m so excited to start a new program with you again! 🥲 It’s been a while. I was doing the 10 minute plan over and over and over last year and burned out before your new program. So I took a break and I’m getting back into working out again. Thanks for the motivation!!

[@glowbodypt]

Sara, Keep me updated as you go through this Challenge! I'd love your input as a long-time GlowBodyPT mama.

[@saracarter683]

@@glowbodyptso far this challenge has been pretty hard 😅😅😅 which reminds me that if you don’t use it you lose it! I’m loving it so far!

[@parisaportal]

Day one done 🔥

[@glowbodypt]

go Paris!

[@sbslimmer]

Love the challenge for my body and my heart. Thank you for the Christian Fellowship.

[@lilinzinga2133]

Great video. I understand it’s not safe to do other exercises while healing the DR. How would someone keep their legs and arms toned during the healing process?

Great bite sized video! Thank you. Quick question if flexibility means I can’t lift my leg too high can I bend it at the knee and lift that way?

[@mamasaurusrex5915]

Loving the Bible verses and teaching during the workouts 😍

[@glowbodypt]

Thank you for letting me know! Keep me updated as you go through the challenge this week!

[@melissahawkins6994]

You're awesome! Should we be repeating these short workouts more than once, or does one time through still get results? Im trying to let go of the mindset that I need to do more!

[@glowbodypt]

This is a Diastasis Recti *maintenance* routine that's perfect for once or twice per week. That's all you need! The 8 Minute Week Challenge is perfect as-is, and when you need MORE challenge, you need to progress up to resistance training like we do in the 10 Minute Plan! Still ultra fast, targeted workouts in 10 minutes each, that add up to 30 minutes per day. They make you feel like a time genuis because you get the results of an hour long workout, but only had to train for half an hour.

[@jessicanyc1]

Thank you Ashley! Is this workout only for those with DR or even for those who’ve finished your firm 30 program a couple times?

[@glowbodypt]

ANYONE will benefit from this, 100%! What was your favorite workout in Firm30 Jessica?

[@jessicanyc1]

Thank you! Ooh that’s a tough one. I had more than a few faves. Split leg complex comes to mind which I’ve far from mastered. Others… Prerequisite legs Round Glutes flat abs Mighty Diamond firm… Many. Best workout series I’ve ever done. And I loved all the family and marriage advice too. 😊

[@lilianadejesus737]

I'm on my third week doing this.I see a difference.Where is the 12 week program?I don't see it.

[@FlameOn-ul2rd]

During this exercise ,should we do core egage or not?

[@Cloggindancer]

Leave it to Ashley to make my abs cry in less then 8 minutes- thank you!

[@glowbodypt]

You always put a giant smile on my face. : D Thanks for being here babe.

Great bite sized video! Thank you. Quick question if flexibility means I can’t lift my leg too high can I bend it at the knee and lift that way?
