Great one, thank you! Paired it with the lower body and I feel great!

Carley

This was a great one!! Definitely feel stronger 💪🏼

Stephanie

Perfect way to start the day. Thank you for your prenatal content!❤️

Wish there were more back/lat exercises to even out the chest press and flies.

Jane

Love that I stumbled upon you on this platform! I was tired of modifying all of my other normal workouts now that I’m getting farther into pregnancy. Grateful for these week by week workouts. Thank you!!

Workout is great but this app requires so much tapping. Tap to start timer, tap to go to next exercise, swipe to move on from warm up to actually workout, tap to mark round 1 finished. Her old app was much more intuitive and required much less effort. The timer started automatically. It moved from warm up to workout automatically when you’d completed the round of warm up exercises. It went through the 3 rounds of workout and then automatically started the cool down. When an exercise was timed, I didn’t have to tap to the next exercise, it just moved on to the next on its own when the timer finished. It gave a few seconds between timed exercises to get into position before the timer started. On this app, I feel like half my workout was spent guiding the app instead of the app guiding me. I’m about ready to delete this one and go back to her old app.

I see exercises focused on one side but doesn’t say to do both sides. I’m assuming you do.

Prenatal Core Learning *IMPORTANT*

It would be great if you could add some voice instructions and maybe do something about that timer to make it easier to use.

Thighs were burning. Loved this as my first day back into working out 😬

Korina

Finally feel like I can workout again. This pregnancy workout is both appropriate and challenging.

So nice to click play and not have to modify a workout! ❤️

First time trying one of this formats while pregnant, they definitely feel more complete, but my 2yo just keeps taking the phone lol. Thanks!

Great workout! Got sweaty and felt like my hearts still pumping even after the cool down

For me it was a bit too little of cardio so added another round and was fully satisfied. Thank you!

it felt so good doing this. I not pregnant and yet it was challenging.


Thank you Niki :)

Loved it! It was challenging and felt a good burn!☺️👍🏻

I'm a tall girl who always slumps. All this back work was great!!!

Nothing plays through. You have to y'all okay for every 30 sec. Also, I never could get the second video of the sets to play

Andrea

I prefer the work with classes rather than clicking through but otherwise enjoyed the workout

Great workout! 14 weeks today and so thankful to be moving!

Add timers back in to exercise screen. It’s pretty inconvenient without them.

These workouts have kept me feeling healthy throughout my pregnancy. I love having workings geared to the trimester I’m in!!

16 weeks pregnant with twins and feeling strong 💪 ☺️

Needs timer function added in. I let the app folks know as well.

I was not expecting it to be this hard ! Loved it !

Has been a long week with work. but hubby gave the baby a bath so I could get this in and it feels so good!!!

Love the prenatal workouts! They give the right amount of strength and cardio and focus ALOT on core. Love them!

I appreciate your quick response! It's nice to see you truly care! I loved it, can't wait to do more. Finally excited about working out again ☺️

Kiley Burton

W15/D1 Lower body

It was good but am a bit confused on whether it is 16 (or 12) per arm or total. I did total and the workout was quicker than you had listed. More clarity there would be helpful!

The time for the workout was way off. It was much shorter.

Think the wide leg hip thrusts could be wrong video, you don't appear to be moving!

It was great. Only thing I noticed is that there is no timer on the seated on hip stretch

I loved it! I would like  you to say how much weight are you using, just as a reference

W16/D2 Upper body

Last two exercises are listed as 1 rep, should it be 10?

Sarah

W16/D5 Interval cardio

It was great! But when there are two sides to do for an exercise or stretch it’s hard to tell if you should split the reps/time, or do the full reps/time for each side. I do the latter to be sure, but it’s just a little confusing. Otherwise, I have loved your workouts!

Abbie

W16/D6 Total body

If the goal was to totally murder my lower body, you achieved it!! Doing each exercise 3-times in a row really created a burn. I feel strong! Great workout (that will make me sore tomorrow LOL)

This was good but why was there only one round of weights? In the old app there were at least two, if not three.

taylor

W17/D1 Lower body

This was a fun one! Only question is the last set of 12. Is that 12 total (6 each arm) or 12 each arm for a total of 24?

W17/D2 Upper body

I know this is going to come in handy when it’s time to deliver this baby! Thank you so much for sharing and helping me prepare to meet him or her!

Emily

W17/D3 Foundations

Great work out. Quick question: how are the reps for the sumo deadlift to squat? 12 of both the deadlift and squat or 6 of each?

W17/D4 Total body

Great! The right workout intensity I was looking for 🤩

Good sweat! Even without plyos the HIIT sessions in the prenatal plan get your heart going!

W17/D5 Lightly weighted intervals

This workout had a lot of upper body (which was great), but there was no upper body warm up. I ended up tweaking my upper back/neck. I would suggest going to the cooldown and doing some of those exercises to warm up the back a bit (or do some of her other back specific warm up exercises from some of the other days) to warm up a bit better than what’s offered today. Other than that, it was a great workout.

Great! Only small issue is there was a repeat exercise with weights from yesterday. It was the squat with tricep kickback. Still loving this for helping me stay fit in pregnancy!

I wish the timers went on their own and the rounds kept track of themselves.

It was my first time using the app. I struggled to get it to flow from one exercise to the next without me manually doing it and putting the timer on? I’m sure with time I will figure it out and it will be more efficient

Same cardio workout we’ve done a few times this trimester. Could use some variety.

That last workout was too complicated for me 😬 I just did squatted side steps instead

Great workout.  I still struggle to understand what a rep is on some of the compound moves.

W19/D4 Total body

It took me 36 minutes to do warm up, just 3 sets (not the 4 required/suggested) and cool down. It would have taken at least 45 minutes to do the workout as written. It was a good workout though!

W19/D5 Lightly weighted intervals

Took me 32 min so a bit quicker then planned. This was a nice, more relaxed workout which I needed today!

W19/D6 Total body

Great one. Do weights get less used now that we're in the second part of the second trimester?

Halfway there @ 20 weeks and so grateful for the prenatal programs to keep me fit and mobile! ♥️

W20/D1 Lower body

Quicker workout today but arms are feeling strong!

I couldn’t figure out how to just let the videos run through each exercise and then move onto the next in a follow along fashion. Instead I had to keep going back to the main page to choose the next exercise. I also had to time myself/ count my reps bc the clips were not timed correctly  nor did they stop when the set was complete

Kristina

Really good workout! Got my heart pumping. Took me about 39:30 to finish (I probably use more rest than she would recommend-I just get my heart rate to 155 before moving to the next exercise)

Great workout! Once the heart gets going is when the fun begins hehe 😁

W20/D5 Lightly weighted intervals

Great mix of exercises/moves! Great cool down too 👍🏼

Helpful for re starting exercise after first trimester nausea. Would be helpful to know how to do breathe while in specific workout but I’ll check the tutorials
