  • You’re ready to restart fitness with a couple of weeks of basics
  • You’re ready for a comeback

What members say about the F5.

Real words from Fit2B members, shared in their own voices.

“People should listen to Beth because when we do what she says, it WORKS! After 7 babies, all natural births, when I listen to Beth and do what she suggests in my daily life, I don’t LEAK! Woohoo!”

KDKerry-Ann D.Fit2B member

“The Foundational 5 gives me hope that my body will recover from this pregnancy and be strong again. That I’ll be able to do the things I used to do and be stronger for new challenges.”

BVBethany V.Fit2B member

“Being able to learn your body and learn how to carry and hold and support yourself in day-to-day life is so important. That is what the F5 taught me. It’s not the 15 minute workout, it’s the application that 15 minutes makes in your whole day and every day after that.”

JMJennifer M.Fit2B member

“I love the F5 because it has taught me how to correctly use my muscles, and gives hope for healing post pregnancy. People listen to you because you are real, honest and you explain how to complete the exercises in a straightforward and fun manner.”

JFJenny F.Fit2B member

“I do what Beth says because everything has worked. After just one or two videos I started to see a difference. By primarily using the F5 videos I have closed my DR and I see a difference in my life.”

APAlexandria P.Fit2B member

“You will LOVE taking the F5 course because it is a realistic commitment (not too long, not too short) with RESULTS! You WILL feel the F5 from DAY 1.”

Questions

Good to know before you start.

Is this course included in a membership?

Yes. Foundational 5+ is included with every Premium membership. If you’re a Premium member, log in and you’ll find it with your courses. If you aren’t, you can buy it on its own and keep it forever.

How long do I have access?

Forever. Buy it once and go through it as many times as you want.

Can I do it while I’m pregnant, or soon after birth?

Apart from one set of moves in the Pilates workout that is done on the belly, yes. The first half of the course contains routines approved by midwives, physical therapists and OB/GYN doctors for use just 3 days after vaginal birth or 10 days after surgical birth. Please still get approval from your own care provider, and stop any exercise if you feel dizzy or have pain, contractions, bright red discharge, excessive fatigue or vomiting. Movement should make you feel better, not worse.

What if I have a hernia?

Every routine teaches ways to manage pressure in your core, which is why many members with non-surgical hernias use this course. If your hernia is painful, swollen, red or hot to the touch, see a medical professional right away. If you’re having hernia surgery soon, talk with your provider before you start.

I’m a member and don’t want the course. Do I lose the routines?

No. The routines are available to you as a member either way. The course gives you structure and the education that goes with it.
