After four kids my abs have taken a beating. I have what is called rectus diastasis meaning my abs are split. If you have this problem you know what I am talking about. Because of this I wear a
waist trimmer belt to help hold my abs together while I workout. It also aids in the weight loss around my waist. If you have rectus diastasis I definatly recommend you get a

I am a stay at home mother of 4 children eight and under. There is not a lot of extra time to go to the gym and working out. So I do my workouts at home. There are a ton of workout videos to choose from when it comes to working out at home and I am one to try them all. I had my fourth child in April of 2009. Two months after having him, I decided to do the p90x lean program. I started out doing it everyday, but having four kids at home I was limited to 3 times a week. So while it took me longer than 90 days I still saw results. In the beginning I could do absolutely no push ups or pull ups; I could not make it through the whole video doing everything properly; I could not do and still have a hard time doing the Ab Ripper, but I try to be careful since my abs are split from having children. While doing p90x I lost 15 pounds. I went down 3 or 4 pant sizes. I am definitely stronger and leaner. I can actually do push ups now after doing the p90x. I am still not where I want to be, but that is why I keep pushing play. Now I also do some Insanity, and have also done Billy's Boot Camp. I like to mix it up, but my favorite is the P90x.
