Great to get some work in even when you don’t feel like it😂

Shelby

Erin

As I get closer to my due date, this workout is exactly what I am looking for. I love that it gets me moving and feeling like I am getting some good activity in for the day!

Brittney

Preparing for baby number for delivery and hopefully naturally. This certainly felt like it opened everything but at the same time very spicy workout. Thank you hannah

olga

38 weeks and some change! Just what I needed today💜

Courtney

i’ve been waiting my whole pregnancy to do this workout!!! 39 weeks + 1 day & this was exactly what i needed!!

Saryn Johnson

38 weeks. ☺️ Definitely slower and lessened some reps.

Kelly

40 w 2 days trying to move this baby down 😂😂 thanks for this! Made my hips feel great actually!!

Allyson

Easy paced workouts to help prepare for labor and get baby engaged into pelvis!

10 sumo squats w. Weight 
10 sumo squats without weight
10-20sec sumo squat hold with rocking

Tri-set

Weight is optional

This is similar to curb walking to help get baby lower! Having a foot up on elevation is fantastic for opening the pelvis

Elevated side lunge to squat

Labor Prep Workout

Am at my 2nd trimester. Getting started to exercise again. Hopefully i can catch up.

Sara

I’m Pregnant/Postpartum, What Do I Do? What can I do?

Very informative and gave me a confidence boost to remain as active as I was before I found out about baby #2. Thank you!!

Iris

Thanks for the info! Am in my 2nd trimester and usually very comfortable laying on my back. Was getting worried if I shouldn't.

A lot of great information! I was soooo lazy with my first pregnancy so im trying really hard to stay active.

Ashly Vandenengel

Important! what is SAFE for you. (Bonus)

Not so sure if I'm doing it correctly or not. Perhaps demonstrate the difference with chest/stomach breathing?

There was no info on performing diaphragmatic breathing. This single video looked more like an intro.

Shannon

Oh...i needed this reminder. I am a belly breather...to be able to breathe very slowly and quiet...trying to be invisible in my upgrowing. This create tension in my upper body

Marita Johansen

What is diaphragmatic breathing?

Love it. But man, i stopped working out for 5 months and need to start small.

I’m so sorry the rating was by mistake😭 I LOVED all the modifications and they were extremely helpful. Five star hands down! I feel so excited and empowered to get started!

Britney Dudley

Pregnancy modifications

Wonderful! I’m 7 weeks and excited to incorporate all these helpful tools!

I’m 8wk 6days and I had the worst side stitch pain on my left side, decided to stretch at the gym this morning and I could feel the exact spot while doing that psoas stretch, going to definitely incorporate that into my routine to prevent any other breathtaking pains. 😂 open to suggestions as well! That pain was like no other this morning.

Rachel Macias

Starting to do more of these stretches! These are great!

Lexi Lou Williams

Important stretches for pregnancy

Good practice but a hard thing for my brain to wrap around. Definitely going to practice this!

Very good. Am doing these before/after every  workout

Gayla

It’s amazing how much thought goes into this exercise originally! This has really challenged me to think how disciplined I am control IAP throughout the regular course of my days. Really thankful for the Hannah highlighting the importance of such a practice.

Belly Pump

Trying to get her in the right place! 33 weeks and went back to breech! 🤷‍♀️

Ashley Powell

I found out I’m pregnant and am so excited to incorporate your exercises to my day today exercises

Megan

Locked Pelvis

Baby dropped last night! Instinctively, I feel like I've got maybe 2 more weeks until she comes, but I still hope for longer. Homework will be done to keep my little gymnast where she should be! ❤

I didn’t really have the area to do the side laying one, and the laying on the back for 10 mins confuses me with all the don’t lie on your back statements (mind you 11 years ago when I had my daughter that was never a thing) pregnancy these days is so complicated 😂

Candice Stone

4 Stretches- birth prep

Thank You! The pain has been rough today and I didn’t like google’s answer of resting. Felt counter intuitive. Decided to look in the prenatal section and I feel better already

Paige

Pregnant with twins ha given me a lot of pelvic pain in the middle to end of my second trimester so these pelvic girdle pain focused exercises have been so helpful!

Marisa Savluk

Fernanda

SPD pain & pelvic girdle pain

Starting to do these every day! May be starting a wee bit early at 22 weeks but I would like to create the habit of doing these. Really trying to have a successful VBAC with this baby.

I am getting close and this was the perfect video to watch on stretches to prepare for labor!

Definitely going to start doing these in the morning with my cat/cows

Angela

Getting Baby in optimal position

Jillian

I’m so thankful I found you and especially these workouts. Beginning before I was pregnant, to now and starting this pregnancy (4th one) with all the right information. I feel so empowered and strong and like I’m taking care of my body and baby so much more with the knowledge you share with everyone. ❤️

Absolutely love these. I’m 35 weeks now! Did you do these all the way till you delivered?

Alexandra

Inner core circuit

Deadlift modifications

I’m so happy I found your app and these core exercises ❤️

Really enjoyed this. Feel like I'm really starting to feel my core.

Caitlin

This is absolutely going to be one of my weekly practices while pregnant. Had to modify the third one bc I believe I saw some coming. I also have a mesh repaired hernia I have to keep in mind while pregnant also. Thank you so much for posting these!
