Ashley, I'm sorry you received hurtful comments on your other video. For all you do for us, these FREE videos on TH-cam...I love seeing the kids in your videos! Because in real life, kiddos run, play, and we do life with them! Thanks for all you do.
I feel compelled to comment that the original hip and back release video is my FAVORITE video BECAUSE of the kiddos running around- it is so authentic and TRUE and BEAUTIFUL, exactly as the Lord intends for life to be. Thank you for sharing your gifts with others.
I love seeing your kiddos run around, as that’s how most of my workouts are with three little boys doing the workouts with me and using mama as a bridge :) Its fun to watch your littles growing up and so cute that Ava will be in your 10- minute plan! It’s real life and so sweet! Children are a gift from the Lord! Expecting #4 and I’m extremely loyal to your channel and workouts and to you!
Ashley, I LOVE your videos. I love that your kids are in your videos. By including them, you not only set a great example for them, showing them that exercise is important, but you set a great example for US, the mamas who watch your videos, as you demonstrate that yes, you can get a workout in and watch your kids at the same time! Thank you for ALL that you do. One nice thing that came out of you re-recording this video is that I did the video tonight, when I wasn't planning on it. And BOY, is it what my body needed! 18 weeks pregnant over here and I feel SO much better after having done the video than I did before. THANK YOU ASHLEY!!!
So much yes! My toddler even mimicks me with 2 lb weights, floor exercises, and helping add weight where he can by sitting on me. You shared a whole prenatal plan FO FREE, and made videos while your husband was serving our country (thank you for your service too!) so ungrateful is what those people are who made the negative comments. They obviously don’t understand single milspouse parenting! Ugh. Many kudos to you Ashley. I love your videos. You’re amazing.
I am really sorry you had to go through this Ashley. I don't understand what's wrong with people! You really didn't need to redo this. We love you as you are!
Don’t listen to the negative comments. You are creating amazing free content to help keep us mentally and physically healthy during a very vulnerable period of life! Not sure why anyone would have anything negative to say about that. You’ve been a guiding star during my pregnancy (now at 27 weeks), so thank you so much for all that you do! Merry Christmas!
I second all the nice comments below. We appreciate you being real, showing your kids during workouts, giving us great workouts, and even going the extra mile to re-record this! I am almost 39 weeks pregnant and feeling so great, which I think is in a large part due to me doing your workouts through out my pregnancy. I am really looking forward to doing your postnatal plan after I have my first baby soon!
I just came across this and heard you speak about hurtful comments. I think those comments were unwarranted and unjust. As another commenter said, all you do for us in these FREE videos is incredible and I am very grateful. I feel very fortunate to have found your channel. Sending mommy love! -Jessica
I’m sorry people can be so mean and hurtful. I don’t ever mind seeing your kids in the videos and actually love the fact that your videos represent real life and true motherhood. That’s a huge part of what helps me stay encouraged in knowing that I can do it too.
The fact that people negatively commented on a FREE video you provided the while your husband was deployed fighting for their country kind of makes me lose all hope in humanity. Cannot tell you how much I appreciate all you (and your husband for that matter) do. I am so inspired and impressed that you've been able to do all of this while raising two little kids (most of the time as a single parent) and very far along in your pregnancy. Your positive attitude is contagious. Thank you thank you again. much love.
Thank you for re-recording this! I know you've got your hands full with all your kiddos and that is real mom life especially when your spouse isn't there to help out. But I did find the noise at least in the beginning distracting , so I really appreciate you taking the time to do it over for us even though it's a freebie! ❤
Omg people can be sooo cruel! But it hearts even more if it’s a mom vs a mom... sending you a huuuuge hug! I really appreciate all of your workouts and stretches, i do them every week, and the fact there are kids sometimes it makes it so real and comforting!! Keep up the great job!!!
Some people need a stern talking too, complaining and calling you hurtful names when you are doing us such a beautiful service. I love watching how your kids see you being active and balancing life. What a role model!
Hi! I just found you! So Grateful. I am a mom of almost 6, and I was a group fit instructor and personal trainer before I had 4 more kids. Ive been wanting to get recertified and not sure if I had time...but you inspire me to not be afraid! Thanks for showing up for the mama's!! I'll be continuing with you.
Jaedyn, it's Ashley. So nice to connect with you and congrats on expecting your 6th baby on the way!

Your heart is so kind and beautiful. Thank you for the videos you do! Thank you for being vulnerable and real! Thank you for pushing us hard to be the best Moms and fit versions of ourselves. I love both versions of this video. The calm version for days I am on overload and need some quiet and crazy version with kids on days I feel like I need another Mom to encourage me to have an amazing attitude just enjoy doing real life with kids by including them and encouraging them to play versus just handing them an ipad. Most of all I appreciate the relief it gives me in pregnancy for those aches and pains. 33 weeks today with my third and loving your videos!
Just finished my FIRST day with you! A friend just gave me the link to your site where I found the free prenatal program, I’m 20 weeks so I’ve started right in the middle of the week 20. It burned! Happy to have this stretch as a cool down. I am so disgusted that people would write hurtful comments about your babies in your previous version of this video. You are such a sweet and helpful person to provide such an in depth routine for the entirety of pregnancy for free! Thank you for all that you do.
Jamie, so nice to meet you at 20.5 weeks along in your pregnancy! THANK YOU for being here and for your kindness. I'm dropping a new vid tomorrow (Friday) for inspiration for your own home and life...it's about scheduling my days as a SAHM of 4. : )
you're real and i love it! kids running around is real! you show that being a real fit mom looks like and give me hopes when i have mine i'll be the same. shame on anyone who says anything negative, you're AMAZING! THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT YOU DO FOR ALL THAT YOU DO ESPECIALLY FOR US FTMs!
I haven’t seen the first video but I’m glad your not deleting because ya with other kids it’s real life and reality and to modify to fit our busy mom life is wonderful! Thank you for being real and not afraid to upload real life videos!!!
Thank god a prenatal stretching routine with straightforward practical advice and no flowery superfluous chatter idealizing motherhood. Somehow the tone was just what I’ve been looking for.
Your kids are so vibrant and are a joy! I also feel like seeing the older version as it is part of your reality which you so generously made the effort to share with us. I appreciate the daily routines that I have built with your help!
This is my husband's TH-cam account so please ignore the photo. I just wanted to thank you so much for all of your videos and support. I grew up in a military family and my brother is a chaplain in the navy with three young kids as well. Your kids have never bothered me, and I've watched dozens of your videos. It is real life and I appreciate that you share that with us. I've been following your prenatal workouts, as well as yoga videos, and play to purchase the postnatal program soon. Stay strong Ashley with your hubby gone so often.
That's so incredible you are still using some of these at 14 months pp. Are you tracking that the Mother's Day Sale is TOMORROW (Friday!) through Sunday only. It's the best time to save money if you've been eyeing a GlowBodyPT program. For super mobility, muscle tone, FAST workouts, fat-burn, and flexible structure as a mom, get on the 10 Minute Plan. It'll be $20 off tomorrow. ; ) www.glowbodypt.com/10minuteplan
I have tried to do this video a few times a week throughout my pregnancy, and this is the first pregnancy I have NOT had back or hip pain... AMAZING!! Thank you, Ashley ❤
ahhh this is SO AMAZING to hear from you Jennifer! Major congrats on preventing back and hip pain this pregnancy, especially since you are not a first time mom and it's something you used to struggle with! Well done. You will love the new Post Pregnancy Mobility I added to the 12 Week Post Pregnancy Plan once that time comes for you.
My wife is 17 weeks pregnant and I joined in on her stretching today. Whew, that was great! We plan to continue the routine, and I'm actually a chiropractor and will be sharing this along with your workout program for patients! Thanks!
Eric Burke, so nice to meet you - I actually refer women on my plans to chiropractic care quite often for chronic SPD past 6 months postpartum. Major congratulations on you and your wife's pregnancy 17 weeks along! Sincerely appreciate you sharing my Free Prenatal Schedule- I am so grateful your wife is enjoying it!
You do an amazing job. Good for you that you can be home with your kids and do this too. And hearing or seeing that you are a genuine mom living mom life is no bother to me! Just adds to the joy of it for another mom who does everything possible with her kids present. Just thankful a mom of 4 finds time to share your knowledge and experience like this 😊 thanks
Thank YOU for being here, and congrats on your pregnancy 23 wks along Cinny! Have you snagged my Free Prenatal Schedule yet?? www.glowbodypt.com/prenatalworkouts It is a click-and-go calendar that takes you week-by-week through your pregnancy to save you tons of time and ensure you are being safe at exactly your stage in pregnancy. From 33 weeks onward, you know you can continue to use any of my 2nd or 3rd trimester workouts listed past 26 weeks on the schedule as long as your body feels up to it. It speaks a lot about you to be taking such good care of yourself (and baby!) this pregnancy! Hope to get to know you more on GlowBodyPT Instagram.
I just found this video but I’m 24 weeks going on 25 weeks pregnant and have been suffering from horrible pack pain and nothing seems to help…now I’m going to try this and hope it does ! ❤
I understand military life, my husband is working in the military as well. It’s really difficult to be away from them for so long. But, it helps us make the best of the time we have with them! God bless you
I taught virtual yoga when COVID hit and my son would pop in and out of the camera loud, laughing, crying, playing, and what not. I am so happy for the people who supported me during that time and was patient and understanding about my situation...not having a sitter while dad was at work and I needed to teach my class. Sorry you got hurtful comments. It is nice to know you wanted to accommodate everyone by redoing this video with no kids. Thank you for keeping the one with kids up. It shows the reality of what we go through as stay at home moms who are working hard to continue our dreams and aspirations. Keep it up!!
You get it COMPLETELY Anya. Props to you for also working from home and doing virtual yoga classes through covid to serve others. It's so nice to connect with you and congrats on your pregnancy! Go snag my Free Prenatal Program now if you haven't already: www.glowbodypt.com/prenatalworkouts
I realize that this video is old, but I want to say thank you for the videos you produce when the children were younger. Your audience is moms! We listen to screaming and crying and delightful yelling and giggles and all the things and that’s normal. I love your workouts so much and I appreciate that your children are seen and heard. They are precious gifts from God and if people are bothered by noise, well too bad. I admire the strength you have, and how many videos you make in addition to workouts about mom life with tips, and the Lord. I know you are prior service so you have experience I don’t have, but as a military spouse with a ad spouse that is gone so much with field training and required certifications and all the other always something needed, it’s so nice to be able to workout with someone else that gets it!
THANK YOU for your kind words and support! And yes these babies are older now (Gavin just turned 9 and Ryker turns 7 tomorrow) but now I have Ava and Laurel (Laurel turns 1 tomorrow too!). Since you're a believer too I think you will appreciate this new vid I shared this month: th-cam.com/video/OCm-XzIfVUc/w-d-xo.html CONGRATS on your pregnancy!!
Thank you for all of your videos! Working out with your kids running around shows us all what real motherhood is all about and motivates us that we can still exercise even if we have children climbing all over us!❤️
So glad you appreciated this one Patience! You'll find that even in any video titled Yoga by me in my plans, I tell you right away I am NOT a yoga instructor and really my workouts are for flexability, mobility, range of motion, injury prevention - and I'm just a Jesus loving mom with no interest in anything spiritual about yoga. : ) Congrats on your pregnancy. You'll really love my Post Pregnancy Mobility Routine (it's a bonus inside of my 12 Week PPP-- and there is no yoga in that plan either!).
Thank you for this video! I am currently 23 weeks and have been dealing with lots of tightness is my lower back and hips. On another note I appreciate your kids being in your videos. I can understand the noise factor but it think if you don’t have kids you don’t understand. I am about to have my second and when I stumbled across your videos after my first son was about 9 months I enjoyed seeing your kids in the PP plan. It gave me the freedom to understand that being a mom isn’t part time but full time and ebbs and flows into everything else. You cannot separate it from the rest of life. Thank you for always being vulnerable with your followers I know it helps me to learn to be a better momma.
awwwe congrats on your 2nd pregnancy 23 weeks strong! I'm sorry you're struggling w/ tight low back and hips, this is common and you're in the right spot here for sure taking care of yourself. I sincerely appreciate your kind words and your support in this glowbodypt community Jacinda!
Not even half way along with twins while chasing a toddler and this is SAVING MY SANITY! Back pain hit hard and early with the double weight and this stretch routine is the ONLY thing that makes a difference for longer than 15 minutes. I'm now doing it every other day and it's magic.
Great work... with or without kids.... kindness is something people bring from homes or need to learn and practice so don't worry about different comments .. sending love x
I love your videos and your kids running around in them! Who would make negative comments about children in a video that was made for people who are about to have children?? Them being negative says more about them then anything they complained about.
Thank you for being real. I'm looking forward to going through your other video with you and your kids 💖 Please don't ever feel like you need to apologise for being authentic 🙏
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this routine. At 19 weeks in my pregnancy, I'm consistently doing this routine 4-5 times per week. Thanks for taking all of the guesswork out of stretching during pregnancy!
I’ve done the other one a few times and haven’t thought anything about it. Haha I do have 7 kids though and one on the way so maybe I just tuned it out. Haha I’ve always thought it is great how you show that you can stay healthy and fit even with the kids running around and I have loved how you’ve invited them along. You’re awesome! Thanks for the prenatal schedule. I’ve really been enjoying it.
I’m pregnant with baby number 6 and when I come across comments like these I am comforted by the idea that I am not alone in this big family adventure I’m on 😏
Thanks for your dedication to all the pregnant ladies out there! You got me through both of my pregnancies with your free prenatal workouts, and I loved the 12 week post-partum videos! They were the best and helped me stay sane while breastfeeding and dealing with the lack of sleep! Keep up the awesome work! And THANK YOU!!!
Hi! I'm pregnant with my third right now. Quiet is never an option in my house lol! Don't worry about your kids! It's a sign of healthy, emotionally safe kids to have them playing and being noisy in their own home! Who is pregnant but complaining about kid noise?!? Lol prob first time moms! Bless them, they'll learn soon enough 😆. I respect a mom who allows kids to be kids (especially in the kids' own home! That's their safe place!) and who models healthy self care to them. And doing it alone only make me respect you more! Thanks for your videos and don't listen to people who would put unfair stress on you- and worse, your kids!
This cured my pesky morning hip joint pain, thank you so much! I haven’t seen the original video, but I wish people would have had more kindness and understanding towards you. SO happy I found your channel, I’m definitely signing up for your postpartum program!!
Awwe, you are so kind Lauren. I'm SO HAPPY this cured your awful morning hip joint tightness & pain. You'll love the new Post Pregnancy Mobility workout I added onto the 12 Week Post Pregnancy Plan this year once you do it postpartum!
I wish I could like this video every time I do it! I’m doing this at least 3 times a week now and it’s made SUCH a difference in my leg/hip/back tightness! THANK YOU!!! ❤
Just wanted to say that the first one was a little much BUT you really encouraged me to chill & be more understanding with my own 3yr old! It's important that her memories of "working out " are fun & positive! Not me losing my patience with her & you helped show me that. So thank you for keeping it real💗
I watched the original videos during my first pregnancy and the kids were no bother at all! It was a cute insight into what I should expect 😂 These videos are so helpful, I credit them to why I felt so good and mobile right to the end of my pregnancy and my labour was relatively quick. So thank you!!
From one military mama to another, shame on anyone who left negative comments on the videos with your kiddos running around! And good for you for not trying to explain yourself to keep your family safe. I can't wait to jump into week 20 of your prenatal training schedule! I'll have 2 under 2 by the time this baby arrives and I'm eager to try your post-pregnancy plan when the time is right. Thank you for the FREE content to help get us through these sticky times! P.s. I am working out right in front of our music llama, too. Haha!
Sara you freaking rock!! Thank you so much for your family's service and it's an honor to have you in this glowbodypt community. Congrats on 20 weeks along w/ this baby!!
110% the best prenatal stretching I’ve found. I’ve been trying different ones for a week and this is the best one! Felt great immediately. Thank you!!!! *27 weeks*
Samantha, congrats to you on 27 weeks! I am so glad this was helpful for you and you felt results immediately. You need my entire free prenatal program here: www.glowbodypt.com/prenatalworkouts
Congrats on 29 weeks Coryna and I know hip pain can get so terrible during pregnancy that it's almost unbearable. Really recommend this one for you too th-cam.com/video/b8_6bApD1ec/w-d-xo.html
I do appreciate you remaking this video. The first one did not bother me much, as it does make you very relatable with the little ones running around! But this one is a nice change of pace and helped me relax when I really needed a break. Thank you!
Thank you so much for making this video! I’m in my second trimester and have not been sleeping due to sciatic pain. I’ve done this video every day for a week and finally had my first night of good sleep with no pain! 🙏🏼
wow!! What a relief that must have been for you. Pregnancy induced sciatic pain can be so intense. I also want you to try this routine Danielle: th-cam.com/video/b8_6bApD1ec/w-d-xo.html
I’m in my first pregnancy and your videos really have been helping me to stay fit. A big big thank you! I also appreciate your sincerity in this video, moms don’t always have the luxury of a silent workout room.
I did your videos during my last pregnancy...LOVE the kids and now my little guy will watch your little people too while I work out--never bothers me. I'm also one of six kids...soooo I guess I used to tuning noise out. I like both versions...I think I did the other one quite a few times before--either this pregnancy or the last, or both...I like the one with the light-saber noise as well (or some toy lol) ...well it always makes me smile. Your humor and joy (and the kids running around!) help me, especially when I'm feeling down during my pregnancy. I also love when you talk about God, thank you for all your hard work--and your amazing discipline!
I love that you are one of six kids and your perspective on motherhood- it's just loud sometimes and we have to roll with it. : ) Since you liked this vid I think you would appreciate this one as you prepare the body for labor: th-cam.com/video/b8_6bApD1ec/w-d-xo.html and my brand new videos where I share my labor & delivery story and my 1 week postpartum, I talk about God too.
Oh my goodness. Thank you so much for this video. I’m 21 weeks pregnant and overweight (obese) and the tightness in my hips and back has been around for a long while and these are the best that I’ve tried. They weren’t hard for me to do and I felt the stretch from the get go. My hips are feeling SOOO relaxed right now. I can not thank you enough. I am truly grateful and will definitely be checking out the rest of your videos as well as adding this one to my daily routine. Bless you!!
33 weeks pregnant and will be doing this tomorrow! Feeling very tight and pretty uncomfortable.. Did your prenatal yoga yesterday too. Thanks for your vids and there will always be someone who isn't happy with something so try to ignore the haters! Xx
Sad to hear you got those comments - I love that I never have to wonder how you get your workouts done with kids because I’ve seen it- so encouraging !
Well done on doing this for yourself. If you enjoyed this, I have an entire Prenatal Program FOR FREE that you will love! www.glowbodypt.com/prenatalworkouts
Ashley!! You are the greatest, and I love seeing your kids in your videos!! They are adorable and you seem to be an incredible mom. This is real life!! It actually made me connect with you on a much deeper level.. not everything has to be Instagram perfect! You’re my favorite trainer on TH-cam… and I have watched A LOT of trainers.
Thank you so, so much for this wonderful prenatal stretch routine!! You are amazing for giving us free routines like this to help in a pinch! I’m sorry to hear you had some nasty comments- haters are always gonna hate out there so just keep on keeping it real!!! You are beautiful!!!!
You are a sweetheart! I personally love how real your videos are - kiddos, pupps and all! Thank you for your dedication to helping us mommies-to-be to feel good and stay healthy during these nine months. I'm loving all the prenatal workouts you've put together, as they've helped me stay active and feel great! God bless you and your family!
OMG_ love your workouts when your kids are around. I love how you talk to them and how patient you are with them. I have learned alot from you in that sense. please don't listen to negative comments and keep up the good content. I know this is old but negative people never stop commenting lol.
Thank you so much for your videos you do not need to apologize to the world for doing your job as a mother ! Your kids are blessing and them running around on your videos is so humbling because it lets mothers like me feel normal about how our boys/girls may shift our lives differently. Thank you to your family and husband for his service we a family of veterans with one 2 year old and one on the way and your prenatal plan is awesome and has kept me motivated this entire pregnancy Keep up the good work!
8:40 - 8:52 ; so helpful! Thank you for all you do for us mamas🙏🏼❤Please pray with me that I get minimal intervention and a safe delivery for my son! #34weeks
Thank you so much for this it has been helpful for me during my pregnancy since I am 21 weeks now and have been having some hip and pelvic pain. Thank you
I have tried SO MANY yoga videos, pre and during pregnancy, to stretch my hips. This is the first one I plan to save and come back to again and again. My hips have been killing me, especially at night, and almost every single one of the stretches hit exactly what’s been aching. Thank you so much for this video.
I feel for you Katie. Hip pain at night when sleeping is already difficult due to baby belly is the worst!! Since you like this routine, I'm sure you will love my top 10 prenatal stretch routine, too: th-cam.com/video/TCeCCeZYVqI/w-d-xo.html And if you haven't done so already, go take advantage of my prenatal schedule because it's FREE and the best you will find anywhere on the web. www.glowbodypt.com/prenatalworkouts
I love your video. I’m at 5th week and experiencing alignment pain at belly. I wasn’t sure if I over stretched or what’s the reason, then I found your stretching which makes me relieved. Because I used to do lots muscle training, so you would understand how confused I am now. Finally, here you are. I’d like your kid running around in the video, that should be fun to watch. You are awesome and soooo enthusiasm that’s really helps me keep the positive mind for pregnancy exercise. Thank you.
Congrats on 5 weeks along and thank you so much for your kind words and support! Here's my free prenatal program for you to snag and start following along at 8 weeks: www.glowbodypt.com/prenatalworkouts
This stretching video is my absolute favorite I have ever found, pregnancy or post-partum! I had no idea how tight my hips were until I started this! I recommend it to everyone.
Wow! What strong words of encouragement, thank you so much Meghan. I think you'd love my Post Pregnancy Mobility routine in the 12 Week Post Pregnancy Plan too. And after that I have a full mobility SERIES in the 10 Minute Plan!
Thanks for this, 30 weeks with baby number 2 and my hips, low bacl and pubic bone are so sore and tight. Appriciate you! I walk 3 to 4 miles 5 days a week and do weights 2-3 days a week. Trying to stay healthier and stronger this time around.
You’re prenatal training has helped me so much! This is my first child but I liked seeing your children run around, it gives me hope that I can workout after baby!
I had to stop doing a lot of lower body workouts until I found this video. The soreness was really bad and I couldn’t find a stretching video to pair the workouts with that helped with soreness the next day. Now I pair this video with any workout that is heavy on my glutes and hips and I’m amazed by how much the soreness is reduced. I’m obsessed with these stretches! 😍
This makes me SO HAPPY to hear for you! Have you tried this booty workout from me yet?? It would be perfect for you because it is low impact. th-cam.com/video/sAclrIxAZTU/w-d-xo.html
I enjoy the workouts I am 22 weeks pregnant now I started as soon as I was able to start eating again 😄 I had so much nausea that I started loosing weight and all my muscle was gone I am doing way better now and enjoying working out again. Thanks for all you do for us pregnant women 😁 God bless you!
Good on you Ashley! That was brave of you to acknowledge those critical comments. I loved this workout session and it really helped relieve pain in my right hip. Thank you!
thank you for this video! I'm pregnant with #4 so can totally relate to having the kids all around and noisy! Having your kids around helps me to be patient when mine are running around me during workouts, thanks for that encouragement.
Thank you for this video! I am 6 weeks and interested in your prenatal plan. The only thing is I got 3 ads throughout this video, not including the beginning ad. Most fitness channels have ads at the beginning and end of videos, which I always let play because I appreciate what you guys do providing free content. But 3 ads throughout such a short video was distracting and I wonder if this is normal?
Ashley, thank you for this excellent stretching routine. Your expertise is much appreciated to ensure safe exercise throughout pregnancy. Thank you for generously sharing so many free, expert, helpful resources!
It makes me so happy to hear my videos have added value to your life during your pregnancy. Props to you Rachel for taking such outstanding care of yourself. Thank you for being here! - Ashley
I wish I found this sooner. Because the way I sleep my left hip is in so much pain..and it radiates thru my back. I can barely walk. I was doing basic stretching and stopped when I got sick . I'm 28wks now and plan to try these from now on..even tho they're a bit hard lol I can already feel it helping my hip. I may see a chiropractor as well. Thank you for sharing! Definitely be looking at other videos!!
holy cow! this stretching video is everything! i'm 23.5 weeks with my second, and i've had sciatica on and off, as well as the start of what felt like very bad SPD/PGS (I didn't have this last time until 38 weeks) for the past week. i stretch and regularly see a pregnancy chiro, but this video nipped the SPD/PGS in the bud 80% after the first time I did this stretch, and I'd say 90% by now (i've incorporated it as my workout cool down for the past 5 days). i think the frog pose in particular is what my body needed to help realign and release. thank you so much! i will continue to do your stretches everyday and hope things continue to feel great.
Shana, hearing your story makes me so happy for you! Props to you for being motivated and doing this for yourself. You also need this workout of mine for your SPD/PGP: th-cam.com/video/U4-6Uak5ZXA/w-d-xo.html
Awe I feel for you Shelly because back pain can get really intense during pregnancy. I want you to try this routine too and see how it goes at providing relief as we prepare your body for labor: th-cam.com/video/b8_6bApD1ec/w-d-xo.html
Ashley, I'm sorry you received hurtful comments on your other video. For all you do for us, these FREE videos on TH-cam...I love seeing the kids in your videos! Because in real life, kiddos run, play, and we do life with them! Thanks for all you do.
Right? She’s doing these for free ! So many ungrateful people out there
Same!!
I feel compelled to comment that the original hip and back release video is my FAVORITE video BECAUSE of the kiddos running around- it is so authentic and TRUE and BEAUTIFUL, exactly as the Lord intends for life to be. Thank you for sharing your gifts with others.
I love seeing your kiddos run around, as that’s how most of my workouts are with three little boys doing the workouts with me and using mama as a bridge :) Its fun to watch your littles growing up and so cute that Ava will be in your 10- minute plan! It’s real life and so sweet! Children are a gift from the Lord! Expecting #4 and I’m extremely loyal to your channel and workouts and to you!
Ashley, I LOVE your videos. I love that your kids are in your videos. By including them, you not only set a great example for them, showing them that exercise is important, but you set a great example for US, the mamas who watch your videos, as you demonstrate that yes, you can get a workout in and watch your kids at the same time! Thank you for ALL that you do. One nice thing that came out of you re-recording this video is that I did the video tonight, when I wasn't planning on it. And BOY, is it what my body needed! 18 weeks pregnant over here and I feel SO much better after having done the video than I did before. THANK YOU ASHLEY!!!
So much yes! My toddler even mimicks me with 2 lb weights, floor exercises, and helping add weight where he can by sitting on me. You shared a whole prenatal plan FO FREE, and made videos while your husband was serving our country (thank you for your service too!) so ungrateful is what those people are who made the negative comments. They obviously don’t understand single milspouse parenting! Ugh. Many kudos to you Ashley. I love your videos. You’re amazing.
I am really sorry you had to go through this Ashley. I don't understand what's wrong with people! You really didn't need to redo this. We love you as you are!
Don’t listen to the negative comments. You are creating amazing free content to help keep us mentally and physically healthy during a very vulnerable period of life! Not sure why anyone would have anything negative to say about that. You’ve been a guiding star during my pregnancy (now at 27 weeks), so thank you so much for all that you do! Merry Christmas!
I second all the nice comments below. We appreciate you being real, showing your kids during workouts, giving us great workouts, and even going the extra mile to re-record this! I am almost 39 weeks pregnant and feeling so great, which I think is in a large part due to me doing your workouts through out my pregnancy. I am really looking forward to doing your postnatal plan after I have my first baby soon!
Best pregnancy stretch ever! Thank you for posting!
You are so welcome, Anna! How many weeks are you?
I just came across this and heard you speak about hurtful comments. I think those comments were unwarranted and unjust. As another commenter said, all you do for us in these FREE videos is incredible and I am very grateful. I feel very fortunate to have found your channel. Sending mommy love!
-Jessica
I’m sorry people can be so mean and hurtful. I don’t ever mind seeing your kids in the videos and actually love the fact that your videos represent real life and true motherhood. That’s a huge part of what helps me stay encouraged in knowing that I can do it too.
The fact that people negatively commented on a FREE video you provided the while your husband was deployed fighting for their country kind of makes me lose all hope in humanity. Cannot tell you how much I appreciate all you (and your husband for that matter) do. I am so inspired and impressed that you've been able to do all of this while raising two little kids (most of the time as a single parent) and very far along in your pregnancy. Your positive attitude is contagious. Thank you thank you again. much love.
Thank you for re-recording this! I know you've got your hands full with all your kiddos and that is real mom life especially when your spouse isn't there to help out. But I did find the noise at least in the beginning distracting , so I really appreciate you taking the time to do it over for us even though it's a freebie! ❤
So glad it was worth it for you, Alice.
Omg people can be sooo cruel! But it hearts even more if it’s a mom vs a mom... sending you a huuuuge hug! I really appreciate all of your workouts and stretches, i do them every week, and the fact there are kids sometimes it makes it so real and comforting!! Keep up the great job!!!
I think I might want to watch the older one just bc it makes me feel like my kids being crazy is more normal! Or at least, I’m not alone! 😂
Yes I love the kids playing !! 😂😂
I’m currently 30 weeks pregnant with twins! This has been my favorite video to relieve hip pain. Thank you Ashley 🎉
Some people need a stern talking too, complaining and calling you hurtful names when you are doing us such a beautiful service. I love watching how your kids see you being active and balancing life. What a role model!
Gahh you are SO KIND!! Sincerely, thank you for being part of this community of fierce women. Women like you are the 99.8% and I love you so much!
Hi! I just found you! So Grateful. I am a mom of almost 6, and I was a group fit instructor and personal trainer before I had 4 more kids. Ive been wanting to get recertified and not sure if I had time...but you inspire me to not be afraid! Thanks for showing up for the mama's!! I'll be continuing with you.

Your heart is so kind and beautiful. Thank you for the videos you do! Thank you for being vulnerable and real! Thank you for pushing us hard to be the best Moms and fit versions of ourselves. I love both versions of this video. The calm version for days I am on overload and need some quiet and crazy version with kids on days I feel like I need another Mom to encourage me to have an amazing attitude just enjoy doing real life with kids by including them and encouraging them to play versus just handing them an ipad. Most of all I appreciate the relief it gives me in pregnancy for those aches and pains. 33 weeks today with my third and loving your videos!
Just finished my FIRST day with you! A friend just gave me the link to your site where I found the free prenatal program, I’m 20 weeks so I’ve started right in the middle of the week 20. It burned! Happy to have this stretch as a cool down. I am so disgusted that people would write hurtful comments about your babies in your previous version of this video. You are such a sweet and helpful person to provide such an in depth routine for the entirety of pregnancy for free! Thank you for all that you do.
Jamie, so nice to meet you at 20.5 weeks along in your pregnancy! THANK YOU for being here and for your kindness. I'm dropping a new vid tomorrow (Friday) for inspiration for your own home and life...it's about scheduling my days as a SAHM of 4. : )
you're real and i love it! kids running around is real! you show that being a real fit mom looks like and give me hopes when i have mine i'll be the same. shame on anyone who says anything negative, you're AMAZING! THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT YOU DO FOR ALL THAT YOU DO ESPECIALLY FOR US FTMs!
I haven’t seen the first video but I’m glad your not deleting because ya with other kids it’s real life and reality and to modify to fit our busy mom life is wonderful! Thank you for being real and not afraid to upload real life videos!!!
I love seeing your kids run around! Brings joy and encouragement to me you can always find time to workout!
Thank god a prenatal stretching routine with straightforward practical advice and no flowery superfluous chatter idealizing motherhood. Somehow the tone was just what I’ve been looking for.
Your kids are so vibrant and are a joy! I also feel like seeing the older version as it is part of your reality which you so generously made the effort to share with us. I appreciate the daily routines that I have built with your help!
This is my husband's TH-cam account so please ignore the photo. I just wanted to thank you so much for all of your videos and support. I grew up in a military family and my brother is a chaplain in the navy with three young kids as well. Your kids have never bothered me, and I've watched dozens of your videos. It is real life and I appreciate that you share that with us. I've been following your prenatal workouts, as well as yoga videos, and play to purchase the postnatal program soon. Stay strong Ashley with your hubby gone so often.
14 months postpartum and still using these stretching videos because they're just that good!! Thank you Ashley!
That's so incredible you are still using some of these at 14 months pp. Are you tracking that the Mother's Day Sale is TOMORROW (Friday!) through Sunday only. It's the best time to save money if you've been eyeing a GlowBodyPT program. For super mobility, muscle tone, FAST workouts, fat-burn, and flexible structure as a mom, get on the 10 Minute Plan. It'll be $20 off tomorrow. ; ) www.glowbodypt.com/10minuteplan
First time pregnant and starting my third trimester. This stretch helped so much. My body feels so good now
I have tried to do this video a few times a week throughout my pregnancy, and this is the first pregnancy I have NOT had back or hip pain... AMAZING!! Thank you, Ashley ❤
ahhh this is SO AMAZING to hear from you Jennifer! Major congrats on preventing back and hip pain this pregnancy, especially since you are not a first time mom and it's something you used to struggle with! Well done. You will love the new Post Pregnancy Mobility I added to the 12 Week Post Pregnancy Plan once that time comes for you.
@@glowbodypt I saw the PP mobility :) Very much looking forward to working through the 12 week PP plan!!
My wife is 17 weeks pregnant and I joined in on her stretching today. Whew, that was great! We plan to continue the routine, and I'm actually a chiropractor and will be sharing this along with your workout program for patients! Thanks!
Eric Burke, so nice to meet you - I actually refer women on my plans to chiropractic care quite often for chronic SPD past 6 months postpartum. Major congratulations on you and your wife's pregnancy 17 weeks along! Sincerely appreciate you sharing my Free Prenatal Schedule- I am so grateful your wife is enjoying it!
You do an amazing job. Good for you that you can be home with your kids and do this too. And hearing or seeing that you are a genuine mom living mom life is no bother to me! Just adds to the joy of it for another mom who does everything possible with her kids present. Just thankful a mom of 4 finds time to share your knowledge and experience like this 😊 thanks
23 weeks right now and I’m so glad I found your channel. You are a life saver. Thank you!
Thank YOU for being here, and congrats on your pregnancy 23 wks along Cinny! Have you snagged my Free Prenatal Schedule yet?? www.glowbodypt.com/prenatalworkouts It is a click-and-go calendar that takes you week-by-week through your pregnancy to save you tons of time and ensure you are being safe at exactly your stage in pregnancy.

I just found this video but I’m 24 weeks going on 25 weeks pregnant and have been suffering from horrible pack pain and nothing seems to help…now I’m going to try this and hope it does ! ❤
I understand military life, my husband is working in the military as well. It’s really difficult to be away from them for so long. But, it helps us make the best of the time we have with them! God bless you
Who would leave hate comments on a real momma providing such great content?! You're the best, thank you so much for this! ❤️
you are so kind Madeline, grateful to have you here!
I taught virtual yoga when COVID hit and my son would pop in and out of the camera loud, laughing, crying, playing, and what not. I am so happy for the people who supported me during that time and was patient and understanding about my situation...not having a sitter while dad was at work and I needed to teach my class. Sorry you got hurtful comments. It is nice to know you wanted to accommodate everyone by redoing this video with no kids. Thank you for keeping the one with kids up. It shows the reality of what we go through as stay at home moms who are working hard to continue our dreams and aspirations. Keep it up!!
You get it COMPLETELY Anya. Props to you for also working from home and doing virtual yoga classes through covid to serve others. It's so nice to connect with you and congrats on your pregnancy! Go snag my Free Prenatal Program now if you haven't already: www.glowbodypt.com/prenatalworkouts
I realize that this video is old, but I want to say thank you for the videos you produce when the children were younger. Your audience is moms! We listen to screaming and crying and delightful yelling and giggles and all the things and that’s normal. I love your workouts so much and I appreciate that your children are seen and heard. They are precious gifts from God and if people are bothered by noise, well too bad. I admire the strength you have, and how many videos you make in addition to workouts about mom life with tips, and the Lord. I know you are prior service so you have experience I don’t have, but as a military spouse with a ad spouse that is gone so much with field training and required certifications and all the other always something needed, it’s so nice to be able to workout with someone else that gets it!
THANK YOU for your kind words and support! And yes these babies are older now (Gavin just turned 9 and Ryker turns 7 tomorrow) but now I have Ava and Laurel (Laurel turns 1 tomorrow too!). Since you're a believer too I think you will appreciate this new vid I shared this month: th-cam.com/video/OCm-XzIfVUc/w-d-xo.html CONGRATS on your pregnancy!!
Thank you for all of your videos! Working out with your kids running around shows us all what real motherhood is all about and motivates us that we can still exercise even if we have children climbing all over us!❤️
Thank you for providing non yoga stretching and calm no music. So relaxing!
So glad you appreciated this one Patience! You'll find that even in any video titled Yoga by me in my plans, I tell you right away I am NOT a yoga instructor and really my workouts are for flexability, mobility, range of motion, injury prevention - and I'm just a Jesus loving mom with no interest in anything spiritual about yoga. : ) Congrats on your pregnancy. You'll really love my Post Pregnancy Mobility Routine (it's a bonus inside of my 12 Week PPP-- and there is no yoga in that plan either!).
Thank you for this video! I am currently 23 weeks and have been dealing with lots of tightness is my lower back and hips. On another note I appreciate your kids being in your videos. I can understand the noise factor but it think if you don’t have kids you don’t understand. I am about to have my second and when I stumbled across your videos after my first son was about 9 months I enjoyed seeing your kids in the PP plan. It gave me the freedom to understand that being a mom isn’t part time but full time and ebbs and flows into everything else. You cannot separate it from the rest of life. Thank you for always being vulnerable with your followers I know it helps me to learn to be a better momma.
awwwe congrats on your 2nd pregnancy 23 weeks strong! I'm sorry you're struggling w/ tight low back and hips, this is common and you're in the right spot here for sure taking care of yourself. I sincerely appreciate your kind words and your support in this glowbodypt community Jacinda!
Not even half way along with twins while chasing a toddler and this is SAVING MY SANITY! Back pain hit hard and early with the double weight and this stretch routine is the ONLY thing that makes a difference for longer than 15 minutes. I'm now doing it every other day and it's magic.
AWWWE this makes me so happy to hear it has been a lifesaver for you! You are amazing carrying twins babe. Couldn't be more proud of you!
I have sacroiliac joint dysfunction at 33 weeks and this video helps relieve some pain. Thank you for this free video
Great work... with or without kids.... kindness is something people bring from homes or need to learn and practice so don't worry about different comments .. sending love x
I love your videos and your kids running around in them! Who would make negative comments about children in a video that was made for people who are about to have children?? Them being negative says more about them then anything they complained about.
Thank you for being real. I'm looking forward to going through your other video with you and your kids 💖
Please don't ever feel like you need to apologise for being authentic 🙏
I love your vulnerability! Thank you for being real with us and not trying to hide it. I'm sorry you received hurtful comments!!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this routine. At 19 weeks in my pregnancy, I'm consistently doing this routine 4-5 times per week. Thanks for taking all of the guesswork out of stretching during pregnancy!
I’ve done the other one a few times and haven’t thought anything about it. Haha I do have 7 kids though and one on the way so maybe I just tuned it out. Haha I’ve always thought it is great how you show that you can stay healthy and fit even with the kids running around and I have loved how you’ve invited them along. You’re awesome! Thanks for the prenatal schedule. I’ve really been enjoying it.
I’m pregnant with baby number 6 and when I come across comments like these I am comforted by the idea that I am not alone in this big family adventure I’m on 😏
Thanks for your dedication to all the pregnant ladies out there! You got me through both of my pregnancies with your free prenatal workouts, and I loved the 12 week post-partum videos! They were the best and helped me stay sane while breastfeeding and dealing with the lack of sleep! Keep up the awesome work! And THANK YOU!!!
22 weeks, 1st pregnancy... these stretches are SO helpful for this adjustment my body is making!
Your are sweet to re-record this but I second most of these ladies and love seeing your kids !
Hi! I'm pregnant with my third right now. Quiet is never an option in my house lol! Don't worry about your kids! It's a sign of healthy, emotionally safe kids to have them playing and being noisy in their own home! Who is pregnant but complaining about kid noise?!? Lol prob first time moms! Bless them, they'll learn soon enough 😆. I respect a mom who allows kids to be kids (especially in the kids' own home! That's their safe place!) and who models healthy self care to them. And doing it alone only make me respect you more! Thanks for your videos and don't listen to people who would put unfair stress on you- and worse, your kids!
you are the sweetest soul! thank you for understanding and relating Amelia.
This cured my pesky morning hip joint pain, thank you so much! I haven’t seen the original video, but I wish people would have had more kindness and understanding towards you. SO happy I found your channel, I’m definitely signing up for your postpartum program!!
Awwe, you are so kind Lauren. I'm SO HAPPY this cured your awful morning hip joint tightness & pain. You'll love the new Post Pregnancy Mobility workout I added onto the 12 Week Post Pregnancy Plan this year once you do it postpartum!
Just so you know this video has ads interrupting it. Loved the stretches! 🙏💕
I wish I could like this video every time I do it! I’m doing this at least 3 times a week now and it’s made SUCH a difference in my leg/hip/back tightness! THANK YOU!!! ❤
Sooo helpful! Currently 18 weeks and I am a heels class instructor, this is literally a savior having come across to help ease hip pains !
I’m checking it out now! Thanks so much for all the very helpful resources for expectant Mommies & more!
Just wanted to say that the first one was a little much BUT you really encouraged me to chill & be more understanding with my own 3yr old! It's important that her memories of "working out " are fun & positive! Not me losing my patience with her & you helped show me that. So thank you for keeping it real💗
I watched the original videos during my first pregnancy and the kids were no bother at all! It was a cute insight into what I should expect 😂
These videos are so helpful, I credit them to why I felt so good and mobile right to the end of my pregnancy and my labour was relatively quick.
So thank you!!
From one military mama to another, shame on anyone who left negative comments on the videos with your kiddos running around! And good for you for not trying to explain yourself to keep your family safe. I can't wait to jump into week 20 of your prenatal training schedule! I'll have 2 under 2 by the time this baby arrives and I'm eager to try your post-pregnancy plan when the time is right. Thank you for the FREE content to help get us through these sticky times! P.s. I am working out right in front of our music llama, too. Haha!
Sara you freaking rock!! Thank you so much for your family's service and it's an honor to have you in this glowbodypt community. Congrats on 20 weeks along w/ this baby!!
110% the best prenatal stretching I’ve found. I’ve been trying different ones for a week and this is the best one! Felt great immediately. Thank you!!!! *27 weeks*
Samantha, congrats to you on 27 weeks! I am so glad this was helpful for you and you felt results immediately. You need my entire free prenatal program here: www.glowbodypt.com/prenatalworkouts
Such an awesome video. 29 weeks here. I’ve been getting the worst pain in my hips and this has helped. Thanks!
Congrats on 29 weeks Coryna and I know hip pain can get so terrible during pregnancy that it's almost unbearable. Really recommend this one for you too th-cam.com/video/b8_6bApD1ec/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for the video Ashley! Thankful for all of your workout videos!
Awesome video! Thanks for working hard to give us all these amazing free videos!
I do appreciate you remaking this video. The first one did not bother me much, as it does make you very relatable with the little ones running around! But this one is a nice change of pace and helped me relax when I really needed a break. Thank you!
Thank you so much for making this video! I’m in my second trimester and have not been sleeping due to sciatic pain. I’ve done this video every day for a week and finally had my first night of good sleep with no pain! 🙏🏼
wow!! What a relief that must have been for you. Pregnancy induced sciatic pain can be so intense. I also want you to try this routine Danielle: th-cam.com/video/b8_6bApD1ec/w-d-xo.html
I’m in my first pregnancy and your videos really have been helping me to stay fit. A big big thank you! I also appreciate your sincerity in this video, moms don’t always have the luxury of a silent workout room.
I did your videos during my last pregnancy...LOVE the kids and now my little guy will watch your little people too while I work out--never bothers me. I'm also one of six kids...soooo I guess I used to tuning noise out. I like both versions...I think I did the other one quite a few times before--either this pregnancy or the last, or both...I like the one with the light-saber noise as well (or some toy lol) ...well it always makes me smile. Your humor and joy (and the kids running around!) help me, especially when I'm feeling down during my pregnancy. I also love when you talk about God, thank you for all your hard work--and your amazing discipline!
I love that you are one of six kids and your perspective on motherhood- it's just loud sometimes and we have to roll with it. : ) Since you liked this vid I think you would appreciate this one as you prepare the body for labor: th-cam.com/video/b8_6bApD1ec/w-d-xo.html and my brand new videos where I share my labor & delivery story and my 1 week postpartum, I talk about God too.
Oh my goodness. Thank you so much for this video. I’m 21 weeks pregnant and overweight (obese) and the tightness in my hips and back has been around for a long while and these are the best that I’ve tried. They weren’t hard for me to do and I felt the stretch from the get go. My hips are feeling SOOO relaxed right now. I can not thank you enough. I am truly grateful and will definitely be checking out the rest of your videos as well as adding this one to my daily routine. Bless you!!
33 weeks pregnant and will be doing this tomorrow! Feeling very tight and pretty uncomfortable.. Did your prenatal yoga yesterday too. Thanks for your vids and there will always be someone who isn't happy with something so try to ignore the haters! Xx
Sad to hear you got those comments - I love that I never have to wonder how you get your workouts done with kids because I’ve seen it- so encouraging !
So grateful for your videos and your free prenatal workout plan! Thanks for all your hard work!
Thank you l. Tried this for the first time and I’m definitely repeating this
Well done on doing this for yourself. If you enjoyed this, I have an entire Prenatal Program FOR FREE that you will love! www.glowbodypt.com/prenatalworkouts
Ashley!! You are the greatest, and I love seeing your kids in your videos!! They are adorable and you seem to be an incredible mom. This is real life!! It actually made me connect with you on a much deeper level.. not everything has to be Instagram perfect! You’re my favorite trainer on TH-cam… and I have watched A LOT of trainers.
Ashley, gahhh! You made my day. Sincerely thanks for taking the time to introduce yourself and for your kind heart, I am honored to have you here.
Thank you so, so much for this wonderful prenatal stretch routine!! You are amazing for giving us free routines like this to help in a pinch! I’m sorry to hear you had some nasty comments- haters are always gonna hate out there so just keep on keeping it real!!! You are beautiful!!!!
You are a sweetheart! I personally love how real your videos are - kiddos, pupps and all! Thank you for your dedication to helping us mommies-to-be to feel good and stay healthy during these nine months. I'm loving all the prenatal workouts you've put together, as they've helped me stay active and feel great! God bless you and your family!
I still do this video after having baby and 2 years postpartum! It helps my husband too! Thank you Ashley!!
OMG_ love your workouts when your kids are around. I love how you talk to them and how patient you are with them. I have learned alot from you in that sense. please don't listen to negative comments and keep up the good content. I know this is old but negative people never stop commenting lol.
Thank you so much for your videos you do not need to apologize to the world for doing your job as a mother ! Your kids are blessing and them running around on your videos is so humbling because it lets mothers like me feel normal about how our boys/girls may shift our lives differently. Thank you to your family and husband for his service we a family of veterans with one 2 year old and one on the way and your prenatal plan is awesome and has kept me motivated this entire pregnancy
Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for your big, kind heart and congrats to your family on number 2 on the way. I appreciate your family's service & sacrifices too.
8:40 - 8:52 ; so helpful! Thank you for all you do for us mamas🙏🏼❤Please pray with me that I get minimal intervention and a safe delivery for my son! #34weeks
Awwwe Shauntae, you are nearly full term now and still doing my workouts!
Thank you so much for this it has been helpful for me during my pregnancy since I am 21 weeks now and have been having some hip and pelvic pain. Thank you
I have tried SO MANY yoga videos, pre and during pregnancy, to stretch my hips. This is the first one I plan to save and come back to again and again. My hips have been killing me, especially at night, and almost every single one of the stretches hit exactly what’s been aching. Thank you so much for this video.
I feel for you Katie. Hip pain at night when sleeping is already difficult due to baby belly is the worst!! Since you like this routine, I'm sure you will love my top 10 prenatal stretch routine, too: th-cam.com/video/TCeCCeZYVqI/w-d-xo.html And if you haven't done so already, go take advantage of my prenatal schedule because it's FREE and the best you will find anywhere on the web. www.glowbodypt.com/prenatalworkouts
Love this routine.will do it every other day until I deliver
Such a lovely stretch! I've never done the side lying supine pidgeon and am so happy I can now do one of my favourite hip stretches again. Thank you
I love your video. I’m at 5th week and experiencing alignment pain at belly. I wasn’t sure if I over stretched or what’s the reason, then I found your stretching which makes me relieved. Because I used to do lots muscle training, so you would understand how confused I am now. Finally, here you are. I’d like your kid running around in the video, that should be fun to watch. You are awesome and soooo enthusiasm that’s really helps me keep the positive mind for pregnancy exercise. Thank you.
Congrats on 5 weeks along and thank you so much for your kind words and support! Here's my free prenatal program for you to snag and start following along at 8 weeks: www.glowbodypt.com/prenatalworkouts
This stretching video is my absolute favorite I have ever found, pregnancy or post-partum! I had no idea how tight my hips were until I started this! I recommend it to everyone.
Wow! What strong words of encouragement, thank you so much Meghan. I think you'd love my Post Pregnancy Mobility routine in the 12 Week Post Pregnancy Plan too. And after that I have a full mobility SERIES in the 10 Minute Plan!
I have watched your another video many times and I appreciate the realness of it and how calm you stayed the entire time!!!!
Thanks for this, 30 weeks with baby number 2 and my hips, low bacl and pubic bone are so sore and tight. Appriciate you! I walk 3 to 4 miles 5 days a week and do weights 2-3 days a week. Trying to stay healthier and stronger this time around.
You’re prenatal training has helped me so much! This is my first child but I liked seeing your children run around, it gives me hope that I can workout after baby!
I had to stop doing a lot of lower body workouts until I found this video. The soreness was really bad and I couldn’t find a stretching video to pair the workouts with that helped with soreness the next day. Now I pair this video with any workout that is heavy on my glutes and hips and I’m amazed by how much the soreness is reduced. I’m obsessed with these stretches! 😍
This makes me SO HAPPY to hear for you! Have you tried this booty workout from me yet?? It would be perfect for you because it is low impact. th-cam.com/video/sAclrIxAZTU/w-d-xo.html
I enjoy the workouts I am 22 weeks pregnant now I started as soon as I was able to start eating again 😄 I had so much nausea that I started loosing weight and all my muscle was gone I am doing way better now and enjoying working out again.
Thanks for all you do for us pregnant women 😁 God bless you!
Good on you Ashley! That was brave of you to acknowledge those critical comments. I loved this workout session and it really helped relieve pain in my right hip. Thank you!
thank you for this video! I'm pregnant with #4 so can totally relate to having the kids all around and noisy! Having your kids around helps me to be patient when mine are running around me during workouts, thanks for that encouragement.
Thank you for making this! I love your videos. ❤
Awwe good for you for taking such great care of yourself Hapruitt.
Love this stretching routine! Really releases some of those pregnancy aches, especially with having lower back pain this time around.
Thank you for this video! I am 6 weeks and interested in your prenatal plan. The only thing is I got 3 ads throughout this video, not including the beginning ad. Most fitness channels have ads at the beginning and end of videos, which I always let play because I appreciate what you guys do providing free content. But 3 ads throughout such a short video was distracting and I wonder if this is normal?
I very much appreciate your videos!! Thank you!
Ashley, thank you for this excellent stretching routine. Your expertise is much appreciated to ensure safe exercise throughout pregnancy. Thank you for generously sharing so many free, expert, helpful resources!
It makes me so happy to hear my videos have added value to your life during your pregnancy. Props to you Rachel for taking such outstanding care of yourself. Thank you for being here! - Ashley
I wish I found this sooner.
Because the way I sleep my left hip is in so much pain..and it radiates thru my back. I can barely walk.
I was doing basic stretching and stopped when I got sick . I'm 28wks now and plan to try these from now on..even tho they're a bit hard lol I can already feel it helping my hip.
I may see a chiropractor as well.
Thank you for sharing! Definitely be looking at other videos!!
Great stretches for my sciatica! Thanks!
holy cow! this stretching video is everything! i'm 23.5 weeks with my second, and i've had sciatica on and off, as well as the start of what felt like very bad SPD/PGS (I didn't have this last time until 38 weeks) for the past week. i stretch and regularly see a pregnancy chiro, but this video nipped the SPD/PGS in the bud 80% after the first time I did this stretch, and I'd say 90% by now (i've incorporated it as my workout cool down for the past 5 days). i think the frog pose in particular is what my body needed to help realign and release. thank you so much! i will continue to do your stretches everyday and hope things continue to feel great.
Shana, hearing your story makes me so happy for you! Props to you for being motivated and doing this for yourself. You also need this workout of mine for your SPD/PGP: th-cam.com/video/U4-6Uak5ZXA/w-d-xo.html
I’ve been having back pains for the past few days, and I did these and I feel so much better. Thank you!
Awe I feel for you Shelly because back pain can get really intense during pregnancy. I want you to try this routine too and see how it goes at providing relief as we prepare your body for labor: th-cam.com/video/b8_6bApD1ec/w-d-xo.html
Great video, so glad I found this stretch for my tight hips
