DON’T PANIC!!! Everyone has a space between the 2 rectus abdominus (or “6-pack”) muscles. A normal space is about 0.5 cm which is about the distance between two of your knuckles for those of you measurement-challenged people like myself!!! It’s fairly common after birth and while many women will spontaneously recover in the first 8 weeks postpartum, about 40% will have a separation that persists at the 6 month mark (Mota et al, 2014) and beyond.
I’m happy to report that about 90% of women experience dramatic improvements in both the look and strength of their midsections after completing my comprehensive 6 week DRA/Core Restore program regardless if they start when they are 6 weeks postpartum or 6 years postpartum!
"I experienced a wide split my abdominal wall after carrying my twins in 2013. I was worried that doing the program online would make it less effective but attending something in person was just not going to happen with two newborns in the house! I was also worried that I was wasting money on some online program that was promising changes I so desperately wanted to believe were possible. But Carrie's program came on a personal recommendation so I went for it. I am so glad that I made the investment! And being able to do the workouts from home was such a blessing. Immediately after (& even during) Carrie's six week DRA Rehab, changes were visible as I finally saw some muscles return to my mid-region. I was able to get back into strength training, cardio and yoga with the tools I needed to maintain my core strength. Fast forward six years and, after recently taking up running, I discovered that my pelvic floor needed more work so I reached out to Carrie. Despite all the time that had passed, Carrie assured me that I could still access the DRA training I had purchased and recommended I review the course which I am doing now. I feel so fortunate to have her expertise and guidance to continue to pursue the activities I love. And life-long access makes the one time fee so incredibly worth it. Thank you Carrie for being there to help me get my body back -- both inside and out!" --Sara
