Scaling & Safety
General Regressions: If you find Chair Step-ups too high or difficult, feel free to use a lower platform or swap to reverse lunges to help manage knee comfort. You can modify Burpees and Commando Planks by moving through the patterns slowly, or try stepping your feet back rather than jumping to keep your energy consistent.
Pregnancy (Trimester 2 & 3): Widen your stance on Air Squats (with pause) and Curtsey Lunges to make plenty of room for your bump. Elevate your hands on a stable table or sturdy wall for Burpees and Commando Planks so you never have to lie flat on your stomach or strain your midline. Always use the talk test to monitor your exertion.
Postpartum: If you experience any leaking, pressure, or a heavy dragging feeling down below, you can remove the jump from Burpees or switch to unweighted glute bridges to give your pelvic floor a break. Focus on a clear, relaxed exhale on the toughest phase of every repetition, especially as you stand up from your squats, to safeguard your recovering abs.
