How soon postpartum can you start working out abs? I wanted to start some sort of exercise regimen but I did not want to do anything too soon. I remember reading somehting about starting too soon can do damage. I can't locate where I read that... Any suggestions? How soon did you wait till you started working out a bs?
with my c-section I had to wait until I was cleared at 6 weeks. This time I had a med-free vbac and was told I could begin exercising at 2 weeks, but to wait until 3 weeks to begin ab exercises. She also to me to take it slowly and not go to crazy.
I'm waiting until my 6 week appointment for ab clearance. You don't want to work them out too early if your muscles are still separated. I started back at cardio at 2.5 weeks pp.
