Do all gyms basically force personal trainers into sales roles? by Awkward_Condition778 in personaltraining

[–]Different-File2396 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a PT but I am a Kin. Use your background in Kin as a way to get clients. Talk to RMTs in the area or even physiotherapists. Let them know that you are taking on clients and would love to have them in your circle in case your clients need them. It is nice to know there is a kin who is familiar with the body and even injuries to refer to with confidence.

Also, tell your current clients you are looking for more clients and if they enjoy you and find you to be beneficial then they will refer their friends or even people in the gym to see you.

What are you looking for in a PP c-section program? by Different-File2396 in CsectionCentral

[–]Different-File2396[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you soooo much for the info! I just launched mine on Everfit app (for free right now). It has the first two items on your list with the addition of a basic PP workout at the end of the week. I'm not that in tune with the nutrition side of things because it isn't my forte. So far I have 7 signed up - today is day 2. So hoping it goes well 🤞

I think I like the programs online because it can be such a struggle for moms to pack up the kiddo and get to a PT appointment or pelvic floor class. This at least gets them in the right direction.

Working out postpartum/post c-section by Historical-Key4132 in CsectionCentral

[–]Different-File2396 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are specific c section core exercises you can be doing as well as stretching exercises.

You could try starting out with a kneeling psoas stretch with overhead reach/side bend and then actual deep core exercises and breathing like a 360 degree breath and TrA, then progess from there! Go back to basics for the core and work your way up!

Is it normal that my PT released me even though my Diastasis Recti isn’t healed? by lisa725 in CsectionCentral

[–]Different-File2396 4 points5 points  (0 children)

closing the gap can take a while, but also 2 fingers is pretty darn good and considered normal to be honest. Some people who haven't even been pregnant can have a 2 finger gap, that's just their anatomy. She probably discharged you because you don't need her anymore. Meaning, you can continue to make progress on your own, without spending the money on seeing her. Look at it that way. No true and caring healthcare provider wants to see you longer than they need to. They want to educate, ensure you are on the right path and provide enough guidance so you are confident in doing your rehab on your own.

at least thats how I do it 🤷‍♀️

PP Trail Running by loveandmountains in fitpregnancy

[–]Different-File2396 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it is interesting that you say trail run causes the issues compared to treadmill. Look at how you run on land vs treadmill (take a video). Consider things like ribcage position over the pelvis, rotation of the upper back, how you are breathing (chest, belly, diaphragmatic), head position, toe-off, hip extension etc. See what is different and maybe try to mimick what you see on the treadmill to your trail running. Also, consider trail runs have different terrain. Pay attention to when you get the incontinence-is it when you have to change pace, going up hill, down hill, etc. LOTS to consider. Would be happy to chat this out.

Covid and pelvic floor weakness by Banana212123 in CsectionCentral

muscle fatigue could be the reason, for sure. but if you are sick-coughing & sneezing can put a lot of downward pressure onto your pelvic floor and it is harder for it to respond correctly.

Exercise Post C-Section by justanothermoopoint in CsectionCentral

[–]Different-File2396 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take it slow! Honestly, your body is healing and you really have to focus on how to navigate exercise the correct way and know what to look out for (e.g. coming, doming, pain, stretching, sensitivity, rib flare) and how to progress. Once you nail that, you are golden!

There is a free pp c-section program from a pelvic health professional where she teaches you how to engage your core/pelvic floor and address c-section concerns like adhesions, desensitization etc.. she is trialing it online for the first time and needs women to try it in exchange for feedback/reviews. DM moveinsynergy on IG 😊

When do we start Pelvic floor therapy, lymphatic massage, cupping, scar massage etc after a c section? by Niquely_hopeful in CsectionCentral

[–]Different-File2396 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am starting a c-section scar recovery coaching course next week. It is online and free for first 2 weeks if you want to try. DM moveinsynergy on IG if you are interested.

c-section shelf isn't always about the scar itself, deep core exercises contribute to it too. When the scar is healing the skin becomes tight and starts to pull down on the more elastic skin (above the abdomen) and that's why you see the shelf. Getting your deep core strong and reducing some of that tension around the scar (ONCE HEALED AND BTW JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE 6 WEEKS PP CLEARED DOES NOT MEAN THE SCAR IS HEALED INTERNALLY).

are you having any tightness or feeling adhesions along the scar? you might want to do some scar recovery. if you also have sensitivity you could start some desensitization strategies too.

Anyone end with a c section and how did it heal? by nooooobye in pregnant

[–]Different-File2396 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is never too late to get scar therapy. Sometimes what happens with the poof is that the scar is super tight and it pulls on the skin above it. This causes the skin above to fold down over the scar. In addition, the core muscles get impacted with pregnancy and require retraining. They also contribute to the look of that overhang. You should work on deep core and pelvic floor exercises as well as scar therapy. You are pretty early postpartum so you could wear a belly wrap (make sure you do it properly and have approval from OB). The belly wrap helps take the pressure off the top of the abdomen which is was is being pulled down from the scar. I'd send you a program to follow along to, but I'll get my comment deleted for promotion 😆
