-Deep breaths in to really feel the slight expansion all around your torso and relaxing of the deep core
-Focus on feeling the length of the pelvic floor
-Exhale naturally, no intentional engagement
-Sit on something low like a stool step or yoga block

PN- Supported deep squat

Prenatal Core Learning *IMPORTANT*

Ooofff…legs at 28 weeks is no joke with this amount of reps. Nice burn!

There’s no slowing down for trimester 3, I see! This might have been the toughest lower body workout of the program (that I remember), but it was awesome! Love the new stretches post-workout too.

W28/D1 Lower body

Such a great upper body workout. Really felt the burn 🔥

Hanna

Elaina Murphy

W28/D2 Upper body

Improve the app, it always said 45min but the workouts are much shorter

Marja

I loved the variety! This is the first workout on the app that I have done and I worked up a good sweat :)

W28/D4 Total body

How do people finish these lightly weighted workouts in 30-35 min? Lol I never have 43 minutes this time. Good workout though!

Quick and sweaty, really effective! Love the style of your workouts! 😊

Judit

Such a great workout! I wish you could save the ones you like so you can come back to them when you want a little extra workout!

Abbie

W28/D5 Lightly weighted intervals

W28/D6 Total body

Such a good lower body workout. I stuck to keeping to band on instead of weights today and it was still such a good lower body burner. 🔥 🍑 30 weeks 🤰

Too many squats in one workout, i love circuits but you could incorporate other exercises than squats so we Spice it up a bit, and we dont get so much fatigue in the same muscle.

Nélida

W29/D1 Lower body

Had no idea what the triple curl was so I did my best there LOL Other than that, awesome workout again!

Loved this upper body workout! My biceps were talking to me at the end! 😀💪🏻
