Hey Lauren! I'm a few weeks into this series and had to tell you how much of a difference it is making! I'm 6 months post partum with TWINS and I had a 6 month old at the time I found out I was pregnant! So no recovery and an absolute nightmare on my body, which has never been more weak. I'm able to activate and feel my core again after a workout and for the rest of the day!! My posture feels better every day and I am so excited and grateful to you forever for this series. I love the moves and I feel hopeful about my body again ❤ here's to better health and rebuilding from the bottom up

Just wanted to say: I have finished the whole 10 week program, and came back to this one to see how it felt. It's nothing compared to that first day! I feel my deeper abs engaged and firm. Btw my "baby" is 21 years old. I am by no means post-partum but engaging my deeper core muscle and glutes has given me much more stability and markedly decreased my back pain. This workout really is for anyone, not just new mamas.

11 years since I had my kid. Was athletic for 5 years (after) and then went from sports to lifting and doing similar core excersize, tried different diets too. I worked out with trainers. I dont think I have Diastasis and I can pound out tons of sit-ups and other ab workous. All these years and the rest of my body is so fit and I STILL have a localized belly pooch. Its discouraging. I'll be starting this tomorrow and plan to update if I see results (or not). Just experimenting and curiosity before I end up seeking a mini tuck.

Day 9 REST Day 10 I prefer to keep both my legs up while on my back, helps me focus on engaging core. Your butt curls up just a bit, and when you exhale wiggle a little you'll feel where it gets tight and lock. Exhale when going against the force such as pulling your leg up, inhale when leg is down. Not big breaths just small ones through diaphragm.

@illuminati_yang2324 Жыл бұрын

Day 12 5 minute warm up for core and blood flow. Repeat video 3 times, even after all this time I still mess up on core engagement but I am slimming down and my stomach does not look as bloated as before. Calorie deficit without the counting. 5 ounces of Chia Pudding EVERYDAY with 1 ounce of walnuts and 1 banana. Lunch & Dinner 5 ounces of any protein, 5 ounces of any carbs & 5 ounces of any vegetable! If you're like me in the 155LBS+ range. I still eat pasta with heavy cream and what not I just count the serving size not the calories. But with how I eat, you can fit in sweets and chips throughout the day just be moderate all though I just don't eat that stuff anymore.

Hi Lauren, thanks for all your amazing videos! I started postpartum core workouts a year 1/2 ago to the point where I felt that abdominal gap close from fitting almost 3 fingers, to not being able to fit any fingers. So it closed! I stopped doing the postpartum workouts at that point and did regular ab workouts but still have had a mom pooch. It got better for sure, but not gone at all. Would you recommend these workouts until my flat stomach is achieved? I’ve been trying your workouts for a week now and already see an improvement!! 👏🏾👏🏾 so I’m guessing even if my diastasis recti closes, there’s still work to be done? Also since I’ve done this core work before to the point that I closed my gap, would you recommend me starting at another point in this series?

@laurenfitterfitness Жыл бұрын

Hi! So glad you’ve seen results from doing deep core work! I would suggest sticking with deep core exercises (like in this series as well as any of the other postpartum Ab/core workouts on my playlists), because it will continue to help you strengthen and define your core after healing your DR. Start at the beginning and if you find the workout easy, you can go ahead and progress to the next one until you find one that is an appropriate level-once you do, stay with that workout for 1-3 weeks until you feel like you’ve mastered the exercises and are ready to progress!

Thank you for this! One question I had.. I’ve heard you should not do cow pose as it could stretch out the gap for DR issues. But I do see that pose here… would love your thoughts!

@laurenfitterfitness Жыл бұрын

@@dianakimdevenish6354 Hi Diana! The cat cow pose is a great exercise to release tension and engage your deep core when done properly. The “cow” phase is more to relax your core and mobilize your spine… that being said, take care not to “push” through your abdomen when performing the “cow” phase. Pushing out could put excessive pressure on the midline. Simply relax the belly, that’s all!

Hi Lauren, thank you for these programs! I am 3 months postpartum and really want to work on my core.. can I do this series and the Abs program together? Like altenating between them over the week? Or would that be too much and do you recommend doing them sequentially?

@laurenfitterfitness Жыл бұрын

Hi! Glad you’re here! Yes, you could do the plans together-just follow my recommendations in the descriptions of the videos so you know how long/how many times to do each workout, etc. Generally I’d say you can do core training 4-6 days per week (only one workout per day) and see results!

@laurenfitterfitness Жыл бұрын

Hi! Thanks for doing my workouts; glad they’ve helped you! I have a “short” video on my playlists on how to engage and keep your core engaged during exercise. With proper engagement and targeted core exercises (like in my videos) you will see some strength and firmness restored. But some loose skin will remain, because even exercise cannot fully restore the collagen/elastin in the skin. Just want to be honest about that!🤍

Is it ok to keep my head off the ground? I can do most of the movements with my head up, otherwise I feel my lower back lifting. Thanks! Great movements!

@laurenfitterfitness 4 ай бұрын

I actually wouldn’t recommend that, as it can put strain on your neck and could create upper ab dominance and rib gripping. Have you tried placing your hands underneath the small of your low back and gentle pressing your low back into your hands? This can help you master core engagement and keeping that low backs toward the floor. That said, your back shouldn’t be totally flat-there will always be a slight curve in the spine. But it shouldn’t be lifting off the floor, either.

Hi Lauren I need little bit of guidance on how to start and from which one. Suppose if I start workout # 1 then for how long to do it I mean how many weeks should I do the workout #1.

@laurenfitterfitness Ай бұрын

Hi! Do each workout 1-3 times before advancing to the next. It can be within the same week. For example, you could do this workout MWF and then on Sunday, move on to workout #2. You know you’re ready to move on when you can perform each exercise with good technique for the majority of the time interval. I recommend at least 3 sessions (5-10 mins) of deep core work but no more than 6 sessions per week. ❤

Hey Lauren, are we supposed to release our core when we inhale on the “easy” part of the movement, or keep it contracted during the whole exercise?

@laurenfitterfitness 3 ай бұрын

Great question! It is really a matter of preference. You can reset your core and breath in between reps, or you can maintain core contraction the whole time, if possible. Some exercises (like cat/cow) allow for a natural release of the core, whereas others, like the side plank with pulses, it may make more sense to maintain the contraction the whole time. But, if your technique is suffering, it’s always better to reset your core and do so as much as you need! Hope this helps!❤

Make long term goals and create exercise and nutrition habits to last and you’ll be able to lose weight and strengthen your core in a way that is sustainable and will last.

Are we also supposed to be tilting our pelvis posteriorly while pulling our belly button to our spine during the movements ?

@laurenfitterfitness Жыл бұрын

Hi Lisa! Great question. You are aiming for a neutral pelvis/spine. So there should naturally be a small space between lower back and the floor (enough to place your hands underneath). You don’t have to keep your hands there, but it can help sometimes to cue/connect to your deep core… if you haven’t yet, check out my “short” video on how to engage your core and that might clear things up!
