I try to keep active by walking 5000+ steps a day and doing exercises with either Pilates, stretching and gentle gym to keep supple and feel good. I did have 3 large babies, the last one 33 years ago but followed the physiotherapist exercises with no problems after.
However, for the last 4 years I have noticed my stomach bulging when doing pull ups. (Dr Google = Diastasis Recti?).
I have asked my GP several times, she always says that, this is normal for a person of my age, 73, but both a physio (treating another problem) and the Pilates teacher don’t agree.
Did/Does anyone else ‘suffer’ with this and have they been cured and can it lead to other injuries?
