Online Core Stability Exercises for Postpartum Recovery
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests an online program of core stability exercises (targeting your abdominal and trunk muscles) for women after childbirth who experience fatigue, balance problems, or trunk weakness. The goal is to help you regain strength and function during daily activities.

This study tests an exercise program designed for women who have given birth within the past 2 years. Researchers want to learn how exercise affects energy levels and overall health after pregnancy.
This study compares two types of core-strengthening exercises designed to help women with postpartum urinary incontinence (leaking urine when coughing, sneezing, or exercising). You'll be assigned to one exercise program and tracked over time to see which works better.
This study tests a core exercise program designed to improve muscle and bone health. It might be a good fit if you are a healthy, active adult between 25 and 35 who has not done structured core training before.
This study tests whether special breathing exercises combined with pelvic floor strengthening exercises (Kegel's) help postpartum women recover core strength and reduce pain. You'd do these exercises for a set period to see if they help close the gap between your abdominal muscles after pregnancy.
This study tests if a program of trunk and breathing exercises can help close the gap in abdominal muscles (diastasis recti) that sometimes happens after pregnancy. It is for women who are at least 6 months postpartum and have a muscle separation larger than 2.8 cm.
