12x DB Floor Press
20x Alt. Superman Planks (Total reps)

Scaling & Safety
General Regressions: Lower your weights on DB Hip Thrust and DB Floor Press if your alignment breaks down. Switch Alt. Superman Planks to standard plank shoulder taps from a steady kneeling position to take the pressure off your core.
Pregnancy (Trimester 2 & 3): To avoid feeling lightheaded or dizzy, do not lie flat on your back for DB Floor Press; use an inclined bench or try an elevated standing press instead. Keep a broad, accommodating stance on your setups, and swap out Alt. Superman Planks for standing bird-dogs to clear your bump safely. Keep the loads light and make sure you can talk comfortably.
Postpartum: Loaded hip extensions like DB Hip Thrust require careful management of internal pressure. Ensure a focused exhale as you drive the weights up. If you notice any leaking or abdominal straining during Alt. Superman Planks, reduce your dumbbell selections or drop to a kneeling posture to give your pelvic floor a break.
