We all know child birth can wreak havoc w/a woman’s body, right? Yesterday my trainer told me a story about one of her clients: pregnant with twins, her belly grew so big that her stomach muscle SEPARATED. You know the 6 pack muscle, apparently, if you draw a verticle line down the center you are drawing over connective tissue (ie it’s not one continuous muscle). So this woman, her connective tissue tore, leaving a 4″ gap in her 6 pack. And no matter how many crunchs she does, no matter how many hours of core work, her muscle will never completely reconnect. What’s up with that?

If you ask me, it’s just another reason not to have kids.
