Hey guys! If you think that just because you’ve never been pregnant you can’t have a diastasis, then I’d like to respectfully point out all the gentlemen walking around with “beer guts” and “pot-bellies.” Most of the physical therapists I know who specialize in diastasis recti report seeing men with ab separation that’s just as bad as women who’ve had babies, if not worse!
Diastasis in Men
Because diastasis rectus abdominus is caused by pressure, not just pregnancy. men get it too. Haven’t you seen those guys whose arms and legs and butts look pretty good, but their guts…!!! They have a “beer belly” even though they don’t drink beer. They appear to have a bunch of intra-abdominal fat around their organs, or they are “apple” shaped, even though they have low-cholesterol, eat a healthy diet, and exercise every day. Their abs make weird shapes when they do situps at the gym.
Why? I believe it’s because their connective tissue is in the same state as pregnant women, though for different reasons.

Because if you’ve played sports that pressurized your core, or if you’ve ever had a hernia, or if you work a desk job or a job where you lean forward a lot, or if you’ve ever had abdominal surgery, or if you’ve been doing hundreds of situps and crunches with no results except your could swear your belly has grown larger, you should check yourself here today!
You might be six weeks away from a stronger, flatter set of abdominals just by ditching your current ab workout routine and/or going through some basic rehab. While Fit2B is mostly geared toward the ladies, the guys who go through my workouts report amazing progress and would be stoked to try the following routines {that aren’t so girly} on this home fitness website right here:
