I have to tell you: I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! I am a mediocrely active person, but definitely would consider myself to be strong and capable. I wanted to add some real workouts, toning and strengthening, to my cardio that I do regularly because I struggle with gaining weight during pregnancy and I also want to be strong for labor. All the other videos I have found are just too much. I can't finish out the videos or do the moves in good form, and they make me so sore for days and I can't function. Those workouts always make me feel like a failure and make me give up. I'm so thankful I found your videos. They are JUST RIGHT. I can always finish them with proper form, and I feel a good burn/soreness for about a day but never so much that I'm literally out of it. I'm getting stronger, managing my weight, and actually enjoying my workouts! Please keep making more. I love everything that you put out and it's made such a difference in my life!!!
29 weeks and 6 days over here, loving all your workouts and prenatal program. Everytime I'm on one of the workouts I fantasize about attending a live workout session with you! That would be so cool 🌸🌸 But already in love with the possibilities technology gives. Big thanks from The Netherlands 🌸🌸
Thank you, Ashley! I feel better than I have with ANY pregnancy. I keep gaining but I know if I stick with the prenatal calendar, postpartum will be so much easier.
I LOVE this workout! I just keep on and keep on coming back to it even though I'm not pregnant anymore😁 I have had hip discomfort and stiffness ever since being pregnant with my first daughter and this workout makes my hips feel so good!! Thank you for such awesome and time efficient workouts 🤗
Holy cow! I had to take so many breaks, definitely challenging but felt great!! I started building in some of your workouts in my second trimester (I'm 29 weeks now), and I plan on following your 12 week post-natal program. Your workouts are awesome, and I feel like I have toned up so much even only working out with you the last few weeks. Thanks for sharing these workouts!
Thanks so much Ashley! This has to be the most challenging workout I've done ever! I'm 17 weeks and your pre-natal workout is such a blessing! Looking forward to getting your postpartum workout program.
This is one of my favorites!!!! This gave me a incredible burn!!!! I love low impact and workouts like these because I feel it avoids bulkyness which is what I stuggle with Alot in my lower body!!! I'd love to see more workouts like this one ❤️

I'm 7 months pregnant with baby number 3 and my bum allways goes from pretty round to flat as a pancake when I'm pregnant, I didn't want that to happen this time so I started doing this video. First few times I couldn't do much at all and then I turned a corner and now am really enjoying it! Thanks so much 🙏 godsend and my bum is much better to look at!
Woohoo! Now this is a win. We focus a lot on the posterior chain (read: your tush) during my 12 Week Post Pregnancy Plan as well! This is because for nursing/breastfeeding moms our glutes and hip region are the most dense in DHA, so fat will be drawn from that area FIRST to supply baby's milk needs. DHA is fantastic for baby's brain development. Unfortunately, this makes it really hard for nursing mamas to keep any SHAPE in the bum! : ) We specifically target the glutes from all three angles via resistance training, pump, and holds to get you a shapely butt even if you are nursing postpartum. www.glowbodypt.com/12-week-post-pregnancy-plan-2

Thank you!!!! Someone recommended your videos; I'm here at week 19 just starting out but really encouraged to commit to this as it's finally something that's consistent, simple (although challenging!) and motivating! It also feels safe as I have felt stuck in knowing the appropriate workouts to do for my and baby's health. PS- I'm going to be a military mommy! New adventures ahead but God goes before us and so we do our best, trust the rest ;) God bless you and the fam
Jessie so nice to meet you and congrats on 19 weeks along with your baby! That's so exciting that you will be a military mom, I served for 5.5 yrs after graduating West Point and didn't get out until my 2nd was born so I know how much it is balancing military life with motherhood. Props to you. I hope you've snagged my free prenatal program too because it will save you SO MUCH TIME www.glowbodypt.com/prenatalworkouts
@@glowbodypt i've printed out your program so i can mark along the way! It's very intuitive and helpful- I've used trackers like this for marathon/tri which this reminds me of- so fun! #goalsetting#encouraging#challengeaccepted! Thx again 😁
Great to hear! You need to go snag my free prenatal schedule too. It takes all the guess work out. Doing the same routine everyday will quickly lead to a plateau and limit your gains, so we need to keep it varied and progressive! www.glowbodypt.com/prenatalworkouts
Goodness, I made myself a little personal training programme with your videos and I do 45 min 3 or 4 times a week. I keep this video as my last exercice and it burns so bad! Definititely feeling it, I am 26 weeks pregnant right now, not sure how long I can keep up with this one but it's a great challenge! Thank you so much for sharing!
@@glowbodypt woohoo, 33 weeks pregnant and I can still finish this one! Never thought it'd be possible. Thank you so much for helping us keep in shape.

Thank-you for recommending this!!! It was great and definitely good for these locked hips.. although my daughter helped a little with the leg raises lifting my leg for me 🤣🤣
I just wondered if you also had any saddlebags exercise for the bags behind the upper legs? I do the inner thighs daily now (5 days) plus others. I’m not pregnant or anything. I am back to walking 14 miles a week, eat healthy with occasional treat. Ex anorexic so lost four stone in short time but didn’t exercise so legs went flabby as I was overweight in teens. Took a while to re-learn eating so by forties ok healthy eating but whatever I do the legs are difficult. Started kettlebells start of lockdown. Have more straight legs than shapely but upper ok. British size 10. I’m doing calf exercise too. Oh I’m 52. I’m into good foods for me ... Thank you Lesley (UK)
Ah this is my second or third time doing this workout through the program and I still burn out right when the exercises start. I’m wondering what that means? Need to roll out or stretch more? The lateral stuff kills me right away!! Thank you for such a great work out.
Sounds like classic symptoms of gluteus medius not turning on. Gluteal amnesia. Essentially your glutes need to get woken up to get firing more and activated before working out, this will give you better results during your workout, improve single leg stability, prevent knees caving in when you squat and lunge, and make your butt look the best. Watch my injury prevention video here - you need mini resistance bands and to do those drills I show you in the video before every glute focused lower body workout. My preferred bands on linked on my website under Favorite Products. Video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VQWj42nsh3o.html
Good job, my workouts are intense for sure. To stay on track and really have strong legs and glutes you need to follow my Free Prenatal Schedule. I take all the guesswork out for you! www.glowbodypt.com/prenatalworkouts
Oof! This workout was quick but really effective. I see myself doing this workout many more times in the future even post pregnancy. The spirals were really challenging for me 👍
Correct! If your calendar isn't clicking it means your Adobe Acrobat PDF reader is out of date. Simply update it and all the links will work instantly. Congrats to YOU on 22 weeks along Robyn.
@@glowbodypt oh sorry! 🤦♀️I didn’t even think to try clicking on it. I printed it out and just search the videos. I like checking this off with a pen. Oops!
What would you recommend for retired runners who want to slim down thighs? I can’t run much anymore former knee injury but I have noticed despite working out the same otherwise that my upper thighs are not nearly as slim and toned. What’s a good way to help trim up that area?
You're going to want to do higher repetitions and time under tension workouts. Runners Legs, Isolateral Leg Slay, Ballet Body, Inner Thigh and Calf Tabata, Legs from Every Angle (soooo good!) and Traveling Leg Sculpt are all the type of workouts you need to target your upper thighs and elicit a leaner, more toned appearance without having to run. All of those workouts and so many more are part of my 10 Minute Plan (it's 12 weeks long, training 30 minutes per day, 4 days per week if you follow the click and go training schedule). We cannot spot reduce body fat so you can't just lose fat from the thighs...but I'm guessing you're not carrying much excess body fat...it's more likely you just need to focus on developing stronger quads that will appear as more lean and defined like you had when you were a runner.
Do you have a modification for the inner thigh one I could barely lift my leg and I could not put my foot and leg in front of the other leg to hold it.

Hi Naomi, it's Ashley. Congrats on 3rd trimester in your pregnancy! I need you to ask your doctor what specific exercises are contraindicated for your small groin hernia. I wouldn't imagine that this would cause you any harm -- but I'm also not familiar with your unique case and I want the BEST for you.
It's my first time doing it this pregnancy and it hurts my hips so bad! I don't feel it in my glute, just my outer hip. Am I doing something wrong or do my hope just need to get in shape?
Alana, it's Ashley. Congrats to you on your first pregnancy. This workout targets the gluteus medius specifically -- these are the OUTER glutes that will give you fantastic shape. Please look up an anatomy image real quick of glute muscles. Are you 100% sure you are hurting your pelvis bones and not just targeting the gluteus medius?
This was really HARD for me. But every time i try to start working out i do something once or twice and stop. I had to stop cause i am so out of shape, but i need to keep myself from gaining too much weight, and most of it has been in my thighs. Its gonna take me a while to be able to do all of it cause my legs really started to hurt after the first 2 exercises. Hopefully, i should be able to after the next couple of times. I am 27 wks 1 day today. Still have 12 wks 6 days to go!
AWWE I love that you are a runner too! I am more half marathon and under type of gal but am so grateful to have you as part of this community. I hope you've snagged my Free Prenatal Program too! www.glowbodypt.com/prenatalworkouts
