Exercises to effectively improve diastasis recti
Diastasis recti refers to the separation of the left and right sides of the rectus abdominis muscle. When this separation is prolonged, it can easily lead to excess fat around the lower abdomen. Diastasis recti commonly occurs in postpartum women, women with loose abdominal muscles, or women with a fuller figure.
