When were these Beginner Pop Pilates classes recorded?
To day seemed easy… my abs are in better shape than I thought!
Starting over! I havent done your videos since they were released but loved them then and was able to lose weight with them. Now coming back years later and hearing “have you all wore jeggings?” made me giggle!
Thank you Cassey!
I feel like this worked my arms more than my abs haha
I definitely felt it in my arms too!!!
That’s common because you’re using your arms to support you when in reality you’re supposed to focus all the strength from your core! It ain’t easy, we’ll all eventually get there!
When I was doing the corkscrew movement, my back hurts so bad even though my back is already flat on the mat. I’ve also tried other abs workout and they always make my back or pain or both hurt so bad. Does anyone know how I can prevent back and neck pain?
You should try some other core exercises until you grow a bit stronger! I still struggle a bit with feeling some exercises more on my abs than my lower back, that’s why it’s important to look for modifications and something that fits our current level better. You could look up core exercises that don’t strain the neck or back, a lot of them involve the tabletop pose, you have the deadbug, bird dog, planks or standing poses like lunges or one leg balance taps. I think it’s important to try different things out and see what works for you, don’t forget to always listen to your body and modify things to better fit you so you don’t put strain in the wrong places and end up hurt. Good luck!
Day 2 of beginner’s calendar done! Question, we do this video only once, correct?
yes 🙂
Day 2 done!!!!!!!!!
Day 2 done! Thanks
I’m trying to get in shape and work towards my desired body after little consistency or anything physical during college. Thank you for both pushing and encouraging.
done! Ah that plank was hell!! but it felt so good afterwards 💕 excited for tomorrow’s video!!
I’m doing this during the quarentine! What a good time to start a challenge!
This is the first time I did it… It feels awesome
I’m doing this during the COVID-19 quarentine. Trying to keep in shape and sane! Thanks, Cassie!
I’m doing the same thing!! Gotta stay healthy in all the ways possible 🙂
Day 2 of me trying the beginners calendar for the 2nd time. I finished the first time around but I wanna give this time 110%
Day 2 and feeling good!
Day two – done! 🙂
Same!
Killed my arms lol! Super great, but defiantly help the abs after yesterday day 1 !
Day two, done!
Day 2 of the Beginner’s Calendar done! I really have lost a lot of the ab/core strength I use to have when I was regularly doing your videos.
THE BEST ROUTINES EVER! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Hey Cassey!
I found you through Channel Mum. 🙂 Wanted to finally start working out properly after giving birth 8 months ago. You really do motivate me! I have one question though – I couldn’t finish the prank exercise, because of the sudden lower back pain that never happened to me! Did it ever happen to you or anyone that you were training with? Maybe I made some mistake in my body position?
I’m getting better at doing the roll-ups and enjoying the workouts Cassey and did the plank for the entire time, breathing and sucking the tummy in is tricky 🙂
Day two completed
Made it through this one okay, felt my abs a little bit, but it’s the day after now and I can really feel it!
I would love to see the 2 beginner videos re-done with 2019 Cassey. It’s motivating to have a fresh amazing looking video and these old ones just feel… well, old! Even though they’re still amazing! Love you Cassey, can’t wait to keep going with this!
I forgot that obliques are a thing and that I have them. Ah, trying to get back into working out…
Getting back into the swing of working out, and I’m so excited that I’m seeing progress!!!. My rollup is nowhere near perfect, but I’m starting to be able to get up without having to push myself up!! And I held the plank for the entire time!! Small victories, but a step in the right direction!
Honestly, this hurt my arms more than my abs. Just me?
The workout hurts my arms more than my abs too!!
Rollups officially my favourite workout 😍 I didn’t collect stickers, but I still have my stamps collection book 😂 and wearing jeggings as I’m typing ✌️
Dit the abs workout. It wasn’t as hard as yesterday.
i dont know if i did it right but am i supposed to feel something while doing the oblique dippers? Like the abs stretching or something like that…
Lovely workout ! Day 2 on the beginner’s calendar, fun, positive, motivating and very useful !
is it normal that i can’t do the roll up movement because of my weight ?
it’s lack of strength, not too much weight. try holding onto the sides of your thighs as you peel yourself up.
