Want to know what activities of daily living and exercises will make your diastasis larger?
I know for sure is that if you are not able you are engaging your innermost abdominal muscle which is called the transverse muscle you will be making your diastasis larger. You use your abdominal muscles with every move you make so it makes sense to use your abdominal muscles with every move you make.

So, the top 5 things that can make your diastasis larger:
1. Doing crunches as it is impossible to engage your abdominal muscles when doing this exercise.
2. Getting up from a back lying position by coming straight up which I call jackknifing. Again, it is impossible to engage your transverse muscle when you get up this way. That is why it is important to roll to your side when getting up from a back lying position
3. Doing any exercises where your back is in an arched position. Arching your back flares your ribs and makes it impossible to engage your transverse muscle. So, remembering to keep to keep your shoulders lined up with your hips while exercising keep you back in a good position.
4. Holding your breath and bearing down while exercising.
5. Exercising in a downward facing position. In this position it is very difficult to engage your transverse muscle. Also, all the weight of your organs is on your weak connective tissue and then stretches and weakens it.
