You no longer have that thin waist and your 6-pack abs also disappeared. You should know that it is very important to return the proper form to your tummy, since our internal organs in the abdominal region are held together by the “six-pack” or rectus abdominis muscles.

The abdominal separation occurs in all pregnant women and usually sorts itself out on its own after delivery. But in several cases, it continues to persist well past 4–8 weeks after delivery. When the separation between the abdominal muscles is over 2 finger spaces (about 25 mm), it causes the tummy to stick out. When the abdominal muscles are unable to support trunk control, it can adversely affect the posture, core strength, trunk stability and trunk rotation. It can also cause or aggravate lower back pain, urinary incontinence, umbilical hernia, and pain during sex. In this case, you need to get your tummy back in shape as soon as possible!

Today we have prepared a list of 6 exercises that will help you get back your 6-pack abs. These exercises are very simple and easy to perform, so they will not give you any discomfort. Do them any time convenient for you or add them to your workout routine for better results. Well, do not worry, after a while, you will get back a beautiful and healthy belly!
