Trans Abs

To follow up from one of my latest blog posts I’ve been inundated with people wanting to find out more about the Trans Abs piece we did on 8th October. We have done more work about this in the last 2 weeks and have tested another 4 people who have had diastasis rectus and we can confirm that when they engage Trans Abs their rectus abdominus separation widens. There is some degree of hollowing in some of them (we estimate that it’s those who have the most tension in their linea alba), but they all demonstrate a widening of their separation. This raises further questions about the conventional wisdom of doing Trans Abs work to help diastasis rectus. I am linking up with Mark Maybury in the next few months to start to measure these people and put a paper together in a more formal way. There are too many unanswered questions – as we understand more I’ll publish it here.
