I've been working hard on shifting the weight I put on the year after my DD was born (she is now 2.5). I've lost 4 stone, another 1.5 to go.
I've been doing 30 day shred, which is great but my abs are so weak I struggle with even the easiest ab moves. Can't feel any muscle contraction beneath my belly button and have no sensation above my c-section scar (for around 6cm). I joined Pilates and had a 1:1 with the instructor last week, planning to join a small class next week. Again I can't do the easiest moves involving abs. Even lying flat without an arch in my back eludes me. I've been practicing daily with no improvement.
Does anyone know of some simple exercises that could help? I don't expect a flat tummy but I have a horrible flabby potbelly at present.
