Scaling & Safety
General Regressions: Use a smooth step-touch instead of dynamic bounding for Lateral Shuffles (Floor Touch) if your joints feel tight. Reduce the depth on Sumo Squats if your hips ache. Swap Bicycle Crunches for standard dead bugs to find comfort.
Pregnancy (Trimester 2 & 3): Widen your feet on Sumo Squats and Air Slams to give your bump plenty of room, keeping your head level with or above your hips to avoid feeling dizzy. Avoid lying flat on your back for Bicycle Crunches; put your hands up on a sturdy bench for wall-supported options or incline bird-dogs to avoid core straining. Always check your effort with the talk test.
Postpartum: Dynamic lateral moves can put pressure on a recovering pelvic floor. If you notice any leaking or a heavy dragging feeling down below, reduce the speed of Lateral Shuffles (Floor Touch). Exhale fully as you drive upward from Sumo Squats and as you extend your legs during Bicycle Crunches to safeguard your recovering abs.
