Finally I'm at number 7!! I've been doing each one for as many times as it takes me to be able to do the workout semi easily (sometimes a week, sometimes a few weeks lol) but the bear crawls are killer!! I can never seem to get them at the start of each workout. This one is def the hardest one yet. I can't wait till I can do it without falling or having my knees so much higher off the ground...

I love this- but a question I may be doing the clam ones and the bird dogs (previous videos) wrong, they don’t feel challenging but the other exercises do. What may I be doing wrong?

@laurenfitterfitness 2 ай бұрын

Hi! The bird dog is a core stability exercise, so you may not find it challenging. It won’t necessarily “burn” in your core/abs. So you may be doing it properly! Just make sure you keep your shoulders directly over wrists, as this can impact the effectiveness of the exercise. For the clams, make sure you keep your elbow directly under shoulder in the bottom arm, and try keeping the hips off the floor the whole time. You can also add a resistance band and that will make it challenging!

@CantStopBaking Жыл бұрын

Thank you so much for these amazing workouts! I literally cannot do the bear crawls with arms and keep the core steady- should I just take out the arms?

@laurenfitterfitness Жыл бұрын

I understand; that is one of the more advanced moves. Yes, you can do just the feet moving forward and back. I’d suggest trying a few with the hands and feet every time to build up strength so that eventually you can do more reps! Just do as many as you can with food form and then either just do the feet or drop your knees!

@CantStopBaking Жыл бұрын

I feel like I have all the exercises mastered here except for the bear crawls- I can do half of the time full, the rest just the knees. Should I wait to continue to workout 8 until I master doing the full bear crawl the whole time?

@laurenfitterfitness Жыл бұрын

@@CantStopBaking you can move forward! The bear crawls are difficult to do the entire interval; as long as you can do some with good form, even for a short amount of time, I’d consider that mastery!

I really appreciate these and do one video every weekday even though my daughter is 10 i feel an improvement. I cant stretch my leg vertically to the ceiling. What exercises should i do to help, would i look for hamstring stretch exercises? Thanks Lauren

@laurenfitterfitness 5 ай бұрын

Hi! I’m so glad you’ve enjoyed the workouts. There are so many benefits, no matter how many years postpartum!❤ Yes, tight hamstrings and calves are the culprit. However, I wouldn’t stress about being by able to fully extend your leg-a little bend in the knee won’t hinder the effectiveness of the exercise. But yes, doing hamstring and calf release work (stretching and foam rolling) will help! I have a few stretch videos on my playlists including foam rolling that you can do before or after workouts!❤

I always thought you had to exhale when rising your legs in ab exercises like leg raise (and inhale on the way down), but you seem to do the opposite. What is the correct way to breathe while doing these exercises ?

@laurenfitterfitness Жыл бұрын

Hi! I have a “shorts” video on my channel that explains how to properly brace your core and breathe through the exercises. That should clarify!

Hi Lauren, thank you for your workout. I have been following them since last July. I am on this one actually but it seams that it is less and less belly workout (maybe I am wrong but I dont feel my belly working anymore). Do you have another video who is really focused only on belly. I am not interested in exercise for the glutes. Thanks in advance for your feedback.

@laurenfitterfitness 7 ай бұрын

Hi Agnes! The reason we work glutes in our core workouts is bc the glutes are a crucial component of the core. Strong glutes equal a strong core and vice versa. So we want to make sure we’re training glutes as well! ❤

How long does it take to notice results?

@laurenfitterfitness 10 ай бұрын

It varies, and progress is generally gradual for most. But if you are consistent with deep core work + good nutrition, results will come! I personally see results after a few weeks and lots of healing happens within the first few weeks/months but my core doesn’t fully heal and I hang onto some excess fat until I wean from breastfeeding. So for me, that is around 12-15 months!

Can these be done while pregnant?

@laurenfitterfitness 3 ай бұрын

Yes, although you’ll want to avoid any exercises in the prone position (on your stomach)-in a few of the videos, we do exercises like this. For some women, exercise in the supine position (on your back) is not well tolerated during pregnancy. You’ll want to make sure to take breaks or discontinue if something doesn’t feel right! ❤
