As a 44 year old mom trying to get back into the habit of exercising, I have found your workouts refreshing, intense but doable! Thank you for the great content and just love seeing your smiling face!
I love your workouts. And I also love that you go slow and target all areas without too much talking! love you girl im almost 54 and trying to stay in shape
Just discovered this. A great starting point to workout abs, especially if one's taken a break from fitness regime. No nonsense, no drama, simple easy to follow workout. Thank you Mik.
Only found this today! Absolutely loved it, more of these please. I'm 52 and have been eating better 80% of the time, doing your workouts about 6 days a week, cycling and hiking. I've been consistent for the last 8 weeks, lost 11lb, am building muscle and feeling the best I've felt in a long time...thank you so much, I couldn't do this without you ❤
I’m 78 years old. Your standing abs with dumbbells are perfect for me. I don’t expect to have a flat stomach anymore but your workouts definitely help to tighten up the loose skin around my mid section, especially the muffin top. I also feel stronger, even beat my grandson in arm wrestling….it was neck and neck for a while but I beat him. I don’t think he thought I’d be as strong. Yes, he’s 9 yr old but he’s a strong little fellow.
I have a lot of issues my lower back so I really appreciate the standing ab exercises because a lot of times I had trouble with the ones on the floor so thank you so, so much for this!!! ❤
I just found your channel a couple weeks ago and I absolutely love it! You have such a fresh faced vibe and clean set. I can actually do the 10-15 min workouts and I hope to work up to the longer ones. Thanks so much for making something that is both lovely and useful.
I absolutely love all of your standing dumbell workout! I can't do anything on the mat so these are a Godsend. Please keep making more! Your workouts are clear, easy to follow and get results!!
Finally found a workout that I don’t dread doing every day! I’m a beginner and this workout is definitely great for me! 🥰 Also love the warm up and cool down routine!
Like many other commenters, I'm a 40s mom who discovered online workouts during covid, now totally addicted to them, and really love your refreshing positive attitude, smile, and beginner-friendly/standing workouts! Would love to see some more short (5-10 mins) express cardio and standing abs type of workouts! Thanks!
This is by far my favorite of your work out routine, perfect intensity, no jumping/no floor and with weight. Looking forward to try your longer work outs.
i just discovered your channel and, oh boy, am I happy I did! I love that the workouts are standing, and they go by so fast yet I really feel the workout. Can't wait to discover more of your great workouts!
That kicked my butt more than I thought it would. Hard but not impossible - I guess that's the sweet spot. I appreciate your straightforward style - no excessive hype and constant chatter. That lets me focus on your instruction and my breathing & form.
Best knee friendly workout I've came across! And I like the fact after each move is a 15 second break that makes the exercises more doable. And let's not leave out the past of how fats this workout was over. This will be my to to workout for a while
This channel is great for that! I've committed to doing _at least_ 20 minutes a day, so I mix and match the type and length of videos to reach that goal. There are even some 5 minute ones if you go back in the list, and they're pretty intense! Hope you're keeping well. ✌️🍍
Thanks to you Mikala I'm beginning to understand the mind muscle connection with standing abs. I've avoided them for years, but feel like I'm getting there slowly. 😅
Thank youuuu!!! I am a super beginner in dumbbell.. and i could not find dumbbell standing workout (without matress) until i found you. And ur video is a beginner friendly and great movement. The pace is also good. Not too slow not too fast. Thanks for making this video.
I love your workouts, particularly the low impact and wrist friendly ones! This one is my go to though being that it's "beginner friendly" (I've been sharing it with all my friends!). I'm just getting back in the habit of working out and struggle with my form on some of your other videos because my muscles just aren't strong enough yet, and I would love to see a playlist comprised of beginner friendly workouts. I'm hoping to be in good enough shape by April to keep up with the April challenge! Thanks for the videos!
All this time I thought I was subscribed to your channel when in fact I wasn't. I didn't even realize it until I went to search for you in my Subscriptions. I've resolved that. Love your standing workouts. Life changing.
I love your work out It s just perfect for me I do 2 segments of 10 minutes each day and i have to do standing exercises mostly….. Keep up the good work Love starting my day with you. 😃
Love this standing Abs workout! I'm working hard to get back into shape after a knee replacement and a secondary illness and this is very challenging but I love it! Thank you!
I did this today. I dont normally do these kinds of workouts (with weights or standing abs (prefer laying down abs). I was looking for ten minutes. I was surprised! I really enjoyed this. ❤❤
I almost never comment on videos, but wanted to share some positive feedback. I love this video (as well as others on your page.) I love that your videos are clean, to-the-point, and your song selection is amazing particularly in this video. I know you can't use mainstream artists but this is close to my Spotify workout playlist. Also I really appreciate standing workouts that give you a good sweat. I workout in my garage (that's filled with baby gear) and I have no desire to get on the filthy floor, and although I have a yoga mat- it would take too long to set it up and push it away between intervals. Keep up the standing dumbbell workouts please! Short but sweet and intense!
I need another standing abs dumbbell workout from u!! (or any functional core workout using dumbbells as someone who is trying to strengthen my back from a lower back injury) ure workouts are simple yet effective and challenging!! ❤
Love this all standing ab/core workout!! Adding the balance challenge of the knee up on the alternating halo crunch was terrific!!! Excellent addition to my cardio workout for the March Calendar 2023!! Week 2/Day 1 is ✔️🙌🙌😀
I love the production quality of this video and I find the cues an pacing very helpful. In this particular session though I found several exercises were causing me discomfort in th hips and lower back. Specifically lower back pain on the side triangle pose dips and hip discomfort in the wide squat side crunch
I'll be doing this for the next few weeks (along with 2 other workouts) Day 1 = ✔ Day 2 = ✔ Day 3 = ❌ Day 4 = ❌ Day 5 = ❌ (busy week) Day 6 = ✔ Day 7 =
Wow, I loved this one. I really struggle to find ab workouts I can do properly due to my scoliosis. It's a minor/moderate case, but it makes doing floor ab workouts almost impossible. I also really like that this is a bit of an upper body workout too, which I am trying to start slowly doing. Immediate subscriber after this video 🙌👏
Omg 😆🙏🥰I’m so internally great full Mikaela for what you’ve done for this special needs mom to a wonderful 13 year old daughter and wife to an incredible husband😂🙏I’ve tried other good videos on TH-cam thinking I could finish them but my heart would break when I couldn’t .. I’m not heavy but could lose the Covid anxiety that got me in 2020.. knowing you videos work with my time and no longer then 30 minutes with some .. now I do know I can lose the weight and get back to my weight before Covid 🥰😂I know I can do it and do it for me❤️
60+ woman says 'Thank you' for your fitness videos which I have recently discovered. I love the compound elements, so I can work more muscles in the time available to me.
I am a beginner so it was hard to keep up but feeling so good that I could finish the whole set. Thank you for designing dumbbell workouts for beginners 🙏🙏🙏♥️🇮🇳
Thank you, really good abd work out in a short period of time. I will see how I feel tomorrow, it I'm too sore I will skip a day, but I plan on putting this one into my program.
Absolutely love your arm workouts. This AB workout was fantastic as well. Would you consider maybe doing some workouts that cater to the senior population in the future? I am 60 years old and some of your workouts are out of my reach.
I love your videos and your energy! I never feel rushed and start feeling the burn almost instantly. You are my new favorite instructor! I’ve shared your workouts with my friends. 💕

Yep. this is what I was looking for. Wanted a short standing ab/core workout to do after a cardio session. This is excellent.
This is just perfect on the days when 10 minutes at a time is all that i can spare. Thanks!
This channel is great for that! I've committed to doing _at least_ 20 minutes a day, so I mix and match the type and length of videos to reach that goal. There are even some 5 minute ones if you go back in the list, and they're pretty intense! Hope you're keeping well. ✌️🍍

Much easier than I expected, but it definitely got my heart rate up and the sweat going. Thank you!
