Can I do planks when healing a diastasis recti?

Should I be doing planks when I have a diastasis/ abdominal separation?
This is a question I'm asked frequently! Planks put a lot of pressure directly through the abdominal wall (and pelvic floor).

In this video I review:

1.) What do we need to check for before beginning planks?
2.) Best way to modify planks (and no, it's NOT coming down onto your knees!)
3.) Where to begin and how to progress planks
