Instructions
Step 1
Don't start exercising your abs right after giving birth. This can cause the rectus abdominis muscles to separate, and you will earn quality diastasis or muscle hernia. It will be possible to get rid of it in the future only by surgery. Until the muscles get stronger as they follow, it is enough to do a light massage and move more. This is enough to tone the muscles.
Step 2
Perform hanging leg pull-ups on the bar. Persuade your husband to make a horizontal bar in any doorway. Pull your knees bent at a slow pace. Try to raise them as high as possible. Gradually, you will be able to pull your legs up to your chest. After that, you can complicate the exercise by straightening the raised legs. The best effect is to raise straight legs, but by the time you can do this exercise, your abs will already look great. After all, lifting your legs, you work out the weakest part of the abdomen - the lower press. This exercise will additionally allow you to take the load off your spine. It is no secret that many young mothers experience severe back pain after pregnancy and childbirth.
Step 3
Don't forget to work on your back muscles, no matter how paradoxical it may sound. A weak back allows the lower back to bend forward and the belly begins to bulge out automatically. To strengthen your lower back muscles, lie on the floor. Stretch your arms forward. Tighten your entire body and at the same time raise your legs and arms without bending your elbows and knees. The body should bend upward with tension, like a bow. At the top point, linger for a second and slowly lower your body onto the mat.
Step 4
With regular work, the abdominal muscles will return to normal very quickly. Indeed, in the very nature of muscle tissue, the ability to contract is inherent. Leather is another matter entirely. To restore the elasticity and firmness to the skin of the abdomen, you will have to spend a lot of effort. The best home remedies are massages and body wraps. Every day, in the morning or before bed, rub your skin with a stiff brush. Strive for strong redness. The inflowed blood will gradually restore the functionality of the epidermal cells. Massages and wraps can be done both in the salon and at home. The main thing is the regularity and thoroughness of the procedures.
Step 5
If, despite your best efforts, your abdominal skin is still loose and stretched, try mesotherapy when you're done breastfeeding. Mesotherapy has proven itself very well in restoring skin elasticity. A competent cosmetic surgeon will select a nutritious cocktail that is right for your body, so choose the clinic carefully for the operation.
