Inverted Breathing for Lower Abs and Pelvic Floor

[@mandas9785]

Would laying on back with hips elevated (maybe pillows instead of bridge) be a good modification for the breathing part of this excercise for a wide diastasis recti? I notice a lot of sagging (extra skin and maybe some coning? ) any time I'm belly down.

Breathing in a hips elevated position could help some with unloading your pelvic floor but it won't challenge your lower abs as much. This position is a lighter load than other front loaded positions but you are right that you always want to watch out for coning. Sagging skin in this position is normal. It's about the muscle engagement underneath it.

Hey! I tried to pull this up on my cell so that I could forward the link to someone who needs it on telegram, and it doesn't show up when I google "Inverted Breathing for Lower Abs and Pelvic Floor and youtube" . I noticed under the title here, there's a little "unlisted" icon, and I don't know what that means. I do want all CES youtubes to show up cause you are a great resource. Please remedy so we can share your good stuff. Thank you. Cynthia
