Every MotherReviews of every-mother.com

I found Every Mother 6 years postpartum-- after finally making it a priority. I still have a little ways to go, but it definitely works!! I am grateful for this program for doing the research, making it affordable (a physical therapist was not!) and also including whole body workouts that are challenging without without worsening the diastis recti. It's really tough to find workouts that take this into consideration.

I needed a workout that helped close the gap of my DR. Love that this is both physio and workout combined

Fantastic workouts, well-adapted to my postpartum body.

It has been very helpful. I can go quickly or slowly and I can repeat if needed. If I’m unable to to set aside a day for the exercise, I’m able to catch up another time. And it works!

I love the Every Mother program! It helped me tremendously after having my second child. I love the workouts and the community. I would definitely recommend this app to anyone.

Core compressions helped me greatly reduce my diastasis recti. Workouts are effective and easy to do at home.

Every Mother has been a total fitness game changer for me. I'm 8yr PP and had essentially blown out my core doing intense ab exercises through Les Mills Core (I still love LM and do many of their other programs but will not go back to that one again). I had induced 2cm DR top, 3cm middle, and an umbilical hernia with all the crunches and other similarly injurious core stuff I was doing. I did the Reclaim Classic program and am now 1cm top and 1.75cm middle, and the umbilical hernia is no longer noticeable! The best thing about this program is the education aspect--i now feel very comfortable trying other exercise programs and knowing when and how to modify (or avoid) certain positions to protect my core. It's like I learned another language. I also like the exercises in EM itself. The strength ones are challenging, and the core-focused ones feel just right. I do wish the cardio ones were more challenging (I rarely break a sweat), and I wish the yoga ones involved more stretching (they rarely leave me feeling limber). I do like all of the instructors, and the new ones have great energy; I just still haven't found the intensity I'm looking for, even in the HIIT workouts, cardio-wise. That may just be personal preference. The app itself is very intuitive, and the Village aspect is great. There are several flaws with the app, though: (1) to go from the Village to your path, you have to select "back to app" which is frustrating, (2) using your phone's "back" function generally just makes you exit the app, not go to the previous area, unless you're in a comment thread, (3) the workout library is organized by Strength, Core, Cardio, and Restorative, which is great, but there's no option to search by type, so if you want to find a Pilates or HIIT class you have to scroll through Restorative (or is it Strength?) for Pilates and Cardio for HIIT, so it takes awhile, and trying to search by workout length takes even longer, (4) having an option to design your own path would be phenomenal, so that you could arrange your workouts according to your own weekly routine, but the only option for customization is to go to the workout library each day, which is laborious, and (5) I wish that the CC tracks had a version with cues to *relax* the pelvic floor instead, for those of us with an overactive pelvic floor (overall, there is little support for overactive PF needs, although a new Village channel to ask questions of a PF specialist has been added, which is awesome--thank you, EM!). The pros far outweigh those cons, though. I signed up for an annual subscription after completing Reclaim and moving to Surpass because I consider EM to be an integral part of my fitness routine now. Thank you for designing such a wonderful and effective program and giving me the knowledge and tools I need to exercise safely and stop being my own worst fitness enemy!

My ab separation has reduced to 2 fingers from 4 fingers at my belly bottom and completely closed above and below belly bottom within 3 months. I am so glad for this program. I am still working on my ab via the extended version of the program and hopeful that it will close completely very soon.
