    34 weeks along with #3 and as always I’m so impressed with your strength! I had to take breaks with my second leg. I also have some intermittent pain in my pelvic area so I couldn’t squat as deep as usual but still a killer burn. Going to do prenatal Pilates next-the day after Christmas means time to work through some of the excess sugar I ate in the last 24 hours 😬

    • @glowbodypt
      @glowbodypt  2 роки тому

      I'm shocked this one didn't hurt your SPD - I'm curious if it is because the staggered stance is STATIONARY verses moving into a rear lunge repetitively. Good to know and PROPS TO YOU for still crushing it Lindsey.

      Leaving this comment will make you more accountable. Do this again in 30 days- legit mark your calendar Suzanne. You need to get both legs equally strong and balanced- this will pay off tremendously by carrying over into other exercises (squat, deadlift) and prevent common overuse injuries that women tend to get more often than men.

      It's okay to do as many as you can in the time I provide- you will absolutely get faster each time you repeat this workout if you try the workout every 2 weeks.

    I think Bulgarian squats are my least favorite exercise ever but I made it through at 26+ weeks so I'm grateful. These are tough! Hurts so good but also 😅 lol
