Diastasis recti is a common condition in pregnant and postpartum people. It occurs when the rectus abdominis muscles (six-pack ab muscles) separate during pregnancy from being stretched. The separation can make a person’s belly stick out or bulge months or years postpartum.

Then I made up my mind that if all I can do is even i can make this possible. Shikha motivated me to start the journey and then results would flow on its own. She helped me with meal plans which could fit my daily routine easily. She helped me set targets which were easy to achieve in the initial days. We started with 5000 steps and reached 9000 at the end. Losing 12 kgs within 3 months is a big achievement. It was all possible only because my coach was very supportive throughout the journey. Thanks to Shikha for helping me achieve my weight loss goals with ease and making me smile on my tough days as well.”

She was always there to answer my queries and made sure I stayed on track. I had a #diastatisrecti with close to 3 fingers gap. With her amazing workouts and #dietprogram . I have healed my diastasis recti. It has helped me feel confident again and motivates me to workout and make this my lifestyle.

With all my heart thankyou so much Shikha.

After watching I thought that let’s try so I joined the 1 month plan for trial and assigned Ishaan Gambhir as my coach. After seeing the results I again enrolled for next 3 months. Ishaan designed simple meal plans as close to my daily #eatinghabits without hampering my milk supply. It was very easy to follow that I never felt like am on diet. DR workouts are easy & effective. Speaking with Ishaan I didn’t think we were talking for the first time, He was very friendly I had so many questions, he explained them all very well and motivated me from time to time and that gave me back my confidence that I can lose my weight.
