    The video is great. Just not sure is it mean that we need to lift the pelvic floor when exhale, but slightly lower the pelvic floor when inhale? Or we need to hold lifting the pelvic floor when we inhale and exhale throughout the exercises?

  • @wearelindywell

    We wouldn't focus too much on when you are inhaling and exhaling, instead we would suggest imagining wrapping your deep core muscles around your trunk to engage your entire core, then imagining the bottom of your pelvic floor like a hammock or elevator that you can slowly raise and lower. Another analogy is to imagine that you're drinking a smoothie through a straw in your vaginal muscles. :)

    Are you supposed to be squeezing and releasing your pelvic floor throughout all of these moves?

    I believe so because she says in the beginning that squeezing and releasing are both important.

    Hi! This is common when you are using your thigh muscles instead of your core to do the exercise. You will feel a difference as you continue to do this workout and build core strength. Keep it up! :)

    Pilates is gentle on your body, so it's a personal decision how often you'd like to workout. Because every body is different and every situation is unique it's hard to say when you'll start seeing results. With consistent practice though, you should start to see results in a few weeks. We're cheering you on! 🙂

    Can a Pilates ring aid in pelvic floor exercises?

  • @wearelindywell

    @wearelindywell

    3 жыл бұрын

    Hi Scott! A Pilates ring isn't necessary for these exercises. However, the ring can help with exercises where you lift your neck off of the mat (by placing one end of the ring underneath the back of your head and holding the other hand above your face with both hands). 😊

    Hi Hannah, feeling wobbly or unstable is normal! As long as you're following cues to engage your core and maintain good form, you should be fine. Continue to go at your own pace and always modify as needed (such as only lifting the legs as much as is comfortable for you). You got this! 🙂

    Hi and thank you for your concern for practicing Pilates safely. 💕If you have any specific medical conditions regarding your pelvic floor, we recommend speaking with your doctor and/or physical therapist to determine which exercises are safe and recommended for you based on your individual needs. Robin always encourages you to draw your pelvic floor up and in for healthy pelvic floor functioning and a strong core when doing Pilates. We're here for you and cheering you on!💪

    Are these pelvic exercises good after abdominal hysterectomy? (after recovery period of course) or are they more specific pelvic floor exercises to strengthen pelvic floor after hysterectomy.

    Hi Silvia - We know that every body is different and every situation is unique, so it is hard to give proper advice. We recommend speaking with your doctor and/or physical therapist to determine which exercises are safe and recommended for you based on your individual needs. It can be helpful to show your medical provider this workout to get specific advice if it's best for you. As you follow the advice of your medical professional, in general, doing pelvic floor exercises like the ones in this workout are great for strengthening the muscles in and around the pelvic floor .
