Description: Diaphragmatic Breathing Tutorial

Nice reminder and demonstration! I did it while stretching after my workout to practice more

Janine Ducharme

Says 5 minutes and the video was only 47 seconds, was confused as to what to do for the remainder of the time.

Jaleesa

Former chest breather here! SO glad you have these extra video's on top of the workouts! Definitely indulging in this! ♡

Marie

Tough to understand, can you walk us through it?

Carabetta

My sound didn’t seem to work but guided for this exercise would have made it 5⭐️

Chantel

Appreciate the “NOT forced belly breathe” tip.
Gonna take my breathing to next level now 😜

Lauren

Any pointers on how I can be sure I’m doing it right? I really struggle with pelvic floor issues and want to get this down! :)

Alex

Pootie

So great! I realized I have been doing it wrong and have been doing a belly breath first!! Thank goodness it’s fixed and I can strengthen my pelvic floor!! That is my biggest concern right now!

Samantha

Great! Dealing with painful separation in my upper linea Alba after baby. 2 weeks post Partum and can’t connect to my core, needed the reminder via the app. Grabbing baby and car seat and not bracing my core is terrible

Jackie

I still don’t quite understand... I’m struggling with when to inhale vs exhale

McKinsey

Felecia

So grateful for these little tutorials! I always have anxiety that I’m not engaging properly and it hindering my body!

Ivory Good

I still don’t get it. I’m really struggling learning how to do it correctly or if I’m doing it right.

Jordie

Bonnie Bell

Great very interesting to learn how to breathe that way.

Charissa

Carolyne

Just starting to learn more about my core! Thank you for the guides! This is tremendously helpful. 💕

Amanda

Michelle

Fernanda

I think using black lettering so you can see the words more easily!! This is extremely helpful, thank you!!

Brynnlee

Lindsey Moore

My first day and I’m ready to start breathing correctly. Was great thanks Hannah. Now, the trick is to keep remembering 😅

Clarissa

I think viewing it from an anatomical view would maybe help! Like viewing it by using the actual diaphragm and pelvic floor model. But this does help as well. Thank You!

Aeriale

I’m new and I’m not really understanding how to breath and activate my core property, is there an easier way to demonstrate?

Rocio

Hi hannah! Not sure if this is the right platform to reach you on but if I’m recently postpartum and am experiencing a lot of air getting trapped in my vagina will your core guide help me heal that?

Paige

Difficult to figure out how to breathe in the ribs first. Will continue to practice. Thanks!

Candice Furrow

Kaitlyn Parkin

I find the ' what not to do's' very informative! It acts as a reminder  to reevaluate the movement I'm doing to make it as positive as possible. I haven't made it too far in the videos yet, but I have quite figured out how to identify the pelvic floor. Hoping to find that soon!

Kelly

Much needed info! Thank you for sharing it on this platform!

Jenna

Videos are nice and quick but the process of getting to next one (must rate, always asked for feedback) slows down momentum

Marissa

I really like this video, super helpful! But for me it would be easier to hear you speak as you perform the example. I get distracted trying to read and watch the video at the same time.

Linda

Great! I loved  It ! I need to do it daily!

Shelli

Melissa

Tobie

Megan

This “it’s not pushing out, it’s through the ribs then stomach” this clicked! I can feel my pelvic floor as I do this.

Corey

A tutorial of the basics of diaphragmatic breathing.

Diaphragmatic Breathing Tutorial

Appreciate the reminder! it’s something I’ve tried to be more conscious of lately after reading your core guide

Tricia

I purchased your core guide but would love tutorials on this app to make things easier for me because I am a kinesthetic learner and learn best when I have guidance like you have been giving via this app. It's like you are talking directly to me to guide me which is the best. Diaphragmatic breathing is hard and I have DR and prolapse plus hernia as well. So it's vital I learn the proper technique since I am doing body building competition in the next 2 years. Thank you for doing what you do. We all love and support you.

Jennifer 

What is diaphragmatic breathing?

Yes! Love this! Your explanations into detail and anatomy and function make so much more sense! Thank you!

I appreciate education about all aspects of the core and not just a highlight reel of how to get a six pack 😝

Jordan Mastera

So helpful! I bought the core guide and I have been loving it so far! I can tell that I am beginning to properly breathe and my inner core unit is getting stronger!

Taylor Miller

Inner vs outer core

Hannah, this is fantastic information thank you so much for sharing your knowledge in an understandable way!!💓

Not really seeing exercises to build core strength systematically, and with diastasis recti prevention

Shantel

Hannah has a wealth of knowledge. She seems to really care about being able to get helpful information out to everyone in a way that we can understand and learn easily. Thankful for the many many different resources she has! .

Kayleigh

How to breathe during exercise

Amazing info . I was an athlete for 24 years and after having 4 kiddos I thought that I just have to deal with that bulging. Now I need to work on it . Thank you

Cristina

Marilu

This is great. I’ve had coning since high school gym. No one has ever corrected it!

Storm Houser

IAP examples- ways to modify

I’m a little confused as why the videos all cut off before they seem to be finished. I would love to know how to fix it!

Shalee

Thank you. I feel I have a lot to learn and think some of my back pain/ issues may be from this. Excited to learn more

Writing in white hard to read and too small. Stop. Insert a box for people to read. Makes it better quality.

Selina

Tips for Understanding IAP

In active breathing, specifically during the dead bug exercise in this Coning & Bulging video, when exactly are you inhaling?

Alissa

Sooo helpful! Especially the picture at the very end with that POV.

Taylor

Coning & Bulging

Hi there!! This video was so helpful as I am now 6.5 months pregnant. I am starting to experience pelvic pain and issues if I’m walking too much or “over do it”. I know I need to work on this pretty much immediately and I plan to! With my membership here do I have the full plan or do I need to get anything else? I want to get started right away.

Carly Cashman-Crespo

Much more informative than the last video

Courtney

This was the first video I watched being on this app. My goal is to learn more about and strengthen my own core and this got me understanding a lot already and more excited to keep going

Demonstration of Uncontrolled Intra Abdominal Pressure

I have a quick question. I’am one of those individuals that when looking at me I have skinny or toned legs and arms my stomach looks like I’am pregnant but I’am not nor have I ever been. Is there any specific workouts or moves I can do to help my core. I’ve been this way since I was a kid. Thank you for your time and amazing effort for this awesome app and workouts. Hope all is well. ☺️

Jaclyn

This video helped me more because of the pictures and videos that you pointed and went into detail on. You was very detailed and it helped me understand it alot better!

Importance of Engaging the PF Properly

I’m so fascinated by this. I do abs all the time and never felt like I had a strong core esp after back surgery. I’ve been trying to train myself to breathe properly and engage my abdominals. You explain it so we’ll.

Ashley

I really want to learn more about my core! This is great! I'm realizing my body changed so much after my VBAC; even a year later my core needs some serious work. Looking forward to more of these! Thanks for the knowledge 😍❤

Aerin

You explained that so well! I finally understand and it’s finally clicked !! I’m so excited to try this next time I’m in the gym - Thankyou Xx

Why Sucking your belly to your spine can be harmful!

Still not really sure how to engage the core

Caitlin

Very informative! I was able to do with in a couple of tries. I love the way it’s compared to zipping up a jacket making it simple.

Isis

Great visual for engaging your core!

Emily Jacobs

Cortney

Love having a trained guest on here for pelvic floor

Still finding it so hard to know if I’m engaging properly.

Abs, obliques & core

The second part was a bit hard to follow as the audio is off from the video

Anna

Amazing content! Would definitely of given 5 stars if the 2nd half of the video didn’t lag.

When to modify exercises to protect the core

Always a favorite to revisit before squats!

Carrie

I absolutely love this one. I do it before I stretch people and it works so well with my PRI correctives. My back has been feeling so good since doing this a couple times a week! 🙏

Tapping into the inner core-building a foundation. “DR Safe”

Don’t know if I am not doming… if I look in the mirror next to me, it looks ok. 
If I look down my belly, my belly flap hanging down. Doming?

Alicia Compton

The talking was way too fast and I couldn’t follow what I was supposed to be doing.

Rhiann

Plank Hold Progressions

Thanks for making a complicated topic easy to understand

Elli

AMAZING explanation! I can’t wait to incorporate this into my daily exercises.
