Beginner for a 12-yr-old barbie ballerina?
The range of motion this woman is using is completely inappropriate for a beginner.
She obviously has no idea what it feels like to be in an obese middle aged body, particularly one which has had a few 10lbs babies & c-sections.
Her spinal alignment when seated is compressing her lumbar.
If she keeps this up, by the time she's my age, her lower back will be worse than mine.
I'm surprised no one's sued you yet. - 5/16/2013 1:47:22 PM
Btw I also like coach Nicole's crunch less core workout, but not her 12 minute Pilates one. This one is much better if you are prone to hurting your neck. - 4/3/2013 9:58:03 PM
This video pushes me just over my comfort zone and I can really feel it working my muscles. It gave me a good workout in less time and I love it!! Since it is less time consuming I will be more motivated because I can get through this.
Just love this video because it is everything I want in a workout.
Now we will just see how sore my abs are when I wake up LOL - 4/2/2013 7:10:44 AM
