    I’m an eating disorder survivor and have ever since had a troubled relationship with working out. I don’t want to force myself to workout any more, which means I don’t do a workout I don’t enjoy. This has lead to me not working out in years, because I couldn’t find anything I truly enjoyed. Furthermore, I’ve been so weak that I’ve felt uncomfortable in gyms and classes. Your videos have helped me find a way back to a balanced workout schedule. Not too much and not too little. In the beginning, I did the beginners calendar and could only do them once before being totally done. Now I’m going through the calendar again, and many of the videos I now do twice. Thank you for the positivity and the inclusivity. It has helped me move on.

      Ive gone through a similar thing. My depression turned my ed into B.E.D and ironically the bed is where I always am (pun there lol) I live in a small 1 bed bungalow and I get out of breath and weak from basic tasks. Washing and drying my body, chores, hobbies even makeup, dog walking (i stopped due to violent attack by a neighbour on me) even just walking around. It often feels like everything is stacked against me, im wasting my life and too far gone. I really want to workout again though because it used to make me feel really good

    I just want to thank you! You are such an amazing person to watch and you make me feel like I can do anything! Doing these workouts with you has helped me in more ways that I can count; including my self-esteem, self-worth, and it has helped stabilize my my moods (I no longer need medication to do that) just to name a few!

    Thank you! And I honestly look forward to each morning so I can do another workout with you!

    Hello Cassie, thank you so much for the workout calendar, it’s been really wonderful. But I have a big bum and lying down on the mat, I always have a small arch underneath my back. How ever I adjust myself on the mat, suck in my belly button, the arch is always there. How do I fix that ?

    Done with this video! Off to the second video of this day ☀

    Anyone else having difficulty with the rollups? I feel like I am doing well with other exercises, but those darn rollups are not getting easier. I continuously have to put my right elbow on the ground to help get me up. Does not feel good to see no improvement there! 🙁

      I previously can’t do it either but then I started going to the gym and I had someone to hold my feet for every crunches I have to do. After few gym sessions, I slowly can start doing them on my own. If you don’t have anyone to hold you, maybe you could put a weight at your foot to hold you down & then work your way till you can do it without those weights.

    So….I am really enjoying these beginner’s calendar exercises. Thank you so much! I used to work out frequently but then had lower back problems and had to stop. Most exercise does exacerbate my back problems, but I just finished day 3 and am feeling good. I do have a question about the roll up, though. It looks so easy when you do it, but I literally have to finishing going up by pushing my right elbow into the floor. What do you think I need to work on to improve this move? That is the one that I am most frustrated with!!!!! HELP!!!!!

    Keeping up with the begInners calendar.

    1. Emily says:

      Same 🙂

  12. Bell and Berries says:

    I just finished this today! Minus the leg stuff, I kept up well. Just wish the isometric chest press was big bust friendly. Otherwise great workout!

  13. Plume says:

    I really love this workout! But, Cassey, can you check up with your app Blogilates… It stopped working and a lot of people are deceived it stopped working…

  14. megmdunn says:

    I would looooove if you did a podcast

    Only my fourth workout with you. I feel like I’m working out with an old friend! Thank you so much for the videos! (And thanks for the puns!)

  19. alicebrites says:

    Love it! Thanks very much!

  20. Rachel D says:

    This is going on my favorite list. Love it.

  21. ch3yu says:

    this was great for today’s morning!

  22. mjancaitis24 says:

    I started the beginners workout calendar 3 days ago. The amount of progress that I have made already is amazing. On the first day, I could barely get through the whole video without feeling like I’m going to die, and now, I just did that whole thing without stopping.

  23. Andreadt47 says:

    Great for beginners and to wake up to. 🙂

  24. Greta says:

    Thank you very much for the Video. I have just started doing exercises in the morning and it feels great.

  25. macymay says:

    hey so i know that we should be in pilates stance and shouldn’t be feeling our necks but using our abs instead, yet every time we lift up i always only feel my neck! i tighten my abs as much as i can but i just think that my core isn’t strong enough. my neck always hurts doing ab exercises. any suggestions?

    1. Angie says:

      Try to have a little impulse with your arms the first time and try to lift from the chest, hope it works

  26. effie313 says:

    I’m having problems doing the on the mat ab exercises. My tailbone hurts a lot, no matter what and I get swelling on the lower back. Are there any alternatives/modifications?

    1. eo4wellness says:

      have you tried doing it on a softer surface? mat? bed? air mattress? padded bench?

    2. ESER says:

      I used to have this problem so I put a folded bath towel on top of my mat under my tailbone. I just kept it folded in half so it wouldn’t hurt my posture.

    Hi! I saw your YouTube channel today and I love it tbh <3 It's just very motivational and I think I'll try to start living healthy with the help of your videos 🙂 Also, you're really cute ^^
    Soo yeah… I was thinking about doing 3 exercises (stomach, thighs and butt) but I'm not sure if the total body one would be better for a beginner?

    Hi Cassey, could you tell me the name of the song that plays during the bridges?
    Love you! ♥
