I talked to a surgeon colleague and got the unfortnate answer that the only true fix is surgery, but PT told me pilates does help, I've been trying but just don't fit it in more then once a week.<br /><br />As far as the rest in intervals are you just slowing or stopping to rest? I find that I try to do no more then 1/2 the time it took for the interval for the rest, no real theory behind it just my thing.Coach Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12110749177657676900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-38562440887562388252012-05-17T15:28:35.783+02:002012-05-17T15:28:35.783+02:00interesting thought re: intervals and lengthening ...interesting thought re: intervals and lengthening rest breaks. i can see your logic but here is my counter point: take a 5 km race... every km gets tougher with more lactic & muscle fatigue accumulated. the goal of a work-out such as the one you did is to simulate that and train you to run even, fast km splits despite the accumulation... lengthening rest periods work against this.<br /><br />i suspected that about plank and diastasis recti. i did tons and tons of plank after the birth of la cocotte and saw mine getting worse but thanks for the confirmation. so what is an ab seeking mother to do?PiccolaPineConehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09520539255908849462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-34848827113648677582012-05-17T13:43:22.802+02:002012-05-17T13:43:22.802+02:00Olga, you sure do hide it well! :)Olga, you sure do hide it well! :)sea legs girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14782712411873234071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-50736732097796128862012-05-17T04:26:08.706+02:002012-05-17T04:26:08.706+02:00I've got same thing.
