Or maybe you’ve tried a class, but the script they follow was fast and overwhelming? Well, I’m passionate about helping everyone make a full […]

She weighs 60 lbs. I got her for Christmas 2 years before filming this routine, right after I had spine surgery. She and I were not friends at first even though I asked for her, I wanted her, and I needed her. She forced me to approach her and my body with humility and a […]
Overwhelmingly, when I asked for “O” alliterations to match the word “orange” from our fans, people said “obliques!” Of course, you know how much my brain enjoys coming up with core exercises, however – beyond rotation – your obliques are in charge of PREVENTING twisting between your ribs and hips. This brilliant core workout explores […]
Normally, we don’t rush movement around here, because rushing can compromise the core and inhibit range of motion IF it’s not done thoughtfully and carefully. Maybe you’re ready for a little speed work? A little fast foot work that’s moderately challenging but not too much for your core? This cardio workout will give you a […]

Did you know that many Fit2B routines are duplicates of what I teach in classes in my community? This particular workout was an 8-week series that I was blessed to lead at a local gym for women in recovery from substance use disorders. I came to that first class with a set of movements in […]

It’s a color that evokes strong – sometimes conflicting – feelings, and it […]

If this workout doesn’t turn your muscles to mush {in a good way} then you’re ready for heavier weights, because, as I say many times throughout the routine itself, “Oh. My. Goodness.” I practiced and practiced this workout to prepare to not be so sweaty and out of breath while filming, but nope! This pattern […]
Many mainstream Yoga studio classes will begin with 3-5 rounds of Surya Namaskara A followed by B. It’s meant to be a rigorous warm up, and few form cues are given as it’s understood (or assumed) that everyone in the room can execute the proper technique and breathing. However, many people haven’t been taught. They […]

The second installment of a 3-part series, this challenging workout is a blend of advanced movements pulled from Yoga, Pilates and natural body resistance methodologies. It’s long and strenuous, requiring a solid baseline of deep core strength as we’ll be doing full planks (which are fine once your diastasis has narrowed and regained fascial tension + […]
This is the first of a 3-part series of playful yet intense total body strengthening moves that combine elements from Pilates, Yoga, and natural transitional movements like tripods, single-leg squats, arm balances, and even planks done safely! While this routine has zero crunches or sit-ups, it’s not for someone whose abdominal fascia is still thinned out with a wide […]

“Are those big exercise balls safe?” I get asked that question all the time, and the answer is that it depends what you do on them.

This was one of our earliest routines filmed in 2010, and this is the NEW version refilmed during Summer, 2015. You see, shortly after we filmed this workout, we began shifting Fit2B towards total diastasis-awareness after Bethany met Kelly Dean of The Tummy Team and was educated about how some moves in this workout might contribute […]
This moderately intense, total-body exercise routine was refilmed in early March 2013 for better TummySafe cues and lighting. The music is a bit more upbeat, and the transitions are faster. So if you want a more mellow workout, this isn’t really it. If you want a total body floor workout, this is it! Equipment Needed: […]
