We're myth-busting and revealing truths about the function and system of the core in this episode. Dr. Nidhi Sharma provides knowledge bombs, educating us about true core activation, how the integrated core system works, and common cues that may not be as valuable as we think they are. She discusses practical tips for mothers and pregnancy, performing abdominal exercises during Diastasis Recti, and differentiating the difference between gripping the core and tension in the core. Finally, she addresses pelvic floor prolapse, the hormonal changes that occur with age, Hernia, Vaginismus, the use of Dialators, and how your posture may be impacting your core synergy. Explore the core, dysfunction, and appropriate cueing with Dr. Nidhi Sharma.
