Did you know that back and knee pain are very common post partum?

Back in 2023 I recieved an email from a listener and that's what this week's show is all about;

"I recently joined your program after reading your article about the connection between Diastasis Recti and lower back pain. After a few days of your workouts, I'm already feeling a difference. Your explanation of core breathing was a breakthrough for me.  

 I'm currently 10 months postpartum and had an elective c-section back in October. I've been experiencing significant lower back soreness, particularly at night and in the morning. It's uncomfortable to turn over in bed and stand up especially getting out of bed in the morning - it feels like things are compressing downwards when I do. Glute bridges are also painful, requiring about 10 minutes of mobilisation before I can fully perform them. Although my suspected annual tear from January has improved, I still feel twinges during glute bridges, which I suspect are related to the lower back pain due to Diastasis Recti.

 Additionally, I've been having a sharp pain in my left knee during reverse lunges, while my right knee is fine. I also have a painful coccyx which seems to only hurt when I stand from a sitted position.

 Despite all this, I'm determined to get stronger. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions you might have. "

So I'm going over everything; Why the corebreath makes such a difference.
Lower back-pain and the feeling of it compressing downwards,
Why she needs soo much mobilisation before being able to do glute bridges.
Back twinges during glute bridges.
The sharp knee pain when doing reverse lunges.

And the disturbing lack of post-partum care for this woman as all of this stuff is fairly easily sorted.

Here's a link to the blog about kneepain which includes the Yoga video.
