Although I'm not prenatal, I decided to try this after seeing it on Facebook. Following the onscreen suggestions, I upped the weights, deciding that 10 lbs would be reasonable for my current condition. Wow! I hope noone mistakes "prenatal" for "easy," because it was not easy! What a challenge! I ended up moving to 8# weights for the very last set of reps before the stretching phase. I can definitely tell that my right side is stronger than my left side. I was proud of myself for using both weights for the overhead tricep extensions. Originally, I had put down one of the weights, but I quickly picked up the second one after just one rep. Thanks for such a fabulous workout!

Hi, Jessica! I'm not pregnant, but I am gently returning to strength work after dealing with health issues (I could do cardio no problem, but strength would wipe me out for days). When I saw this was prenatal approved, I thought, great! It should do the trick. This was perfect for me for where my body is right now. I felt pleasantly worked. Hopefully soon I'll be back to all the wonderful Jessica Smith strength workouts that I love so much!

I am not pregnant and I'm an experienced exerciser, but I was just SO happy to see a new Jessica and Peanut workout! I increased the weight and the range of motion and had a great sculpt session after a little spin.

Hello Jessica! My name is Natrina and I am sending you a big thank you from Japan for all of your workout videos! Your workout videos have truly helped me and my mother over the past couple of years and we are so thankful! And we love watching little Peanut cheering us on in the back!! I mainly do my workouts in the morning but recently I like to do a little at night too! I was wondering if I could make a request and ask you to do an evening/night workout:) Thank you!!

I'm not pregnant, but had 2 kids and always toning tummy. 😉 I'm from Kentucky, 6 times a granny, and 63 years old. I added weights to most of the workout–great exercise–thanks so much!! Love your workouts "cousin Smith"–ha.

After being bedridden for 3 days with a massive migraine, a bad bout with fibromyalgia (neck, shoulder and back) and arthritis and a bad stomach flu, I decided to try this with my 5-lb weights. I felt so guilty as I had not missed a workout with Jessicasmithtv for 20 days, but I am back. I followed with this hotel room cardio:

Kicking myself for waiting so long to do this one, because I didn't realize just how "prenatal targeted" it was. Loved this one!!! 🙂 I really enjoy 1. Single sided strength moves because they're sneaky (and safe) for the core during pregnancy, but I loved how the movements were SLOOOOOW and deliberate with moderately heavy weights (I used 8#s). Looking forward to revisiting this one regularly and have added it to my prenatal playlist. THANK YOU! #20weekspregnant #goingstrong

I have been working out for over 40 years and I have tried every form of aerobic exercise. I get easily board. I have been doing most if not all of the workouts from Jessica Smith and let me tell you I feel great. I never get board and she makes the workouts fun and works body parts that you didn't know you could workout. She has easy to follow instructions is super motivational and provides such a great variety of workouts. You will feel great and notice positive changes in your body.. and have more energy. I love that her dog makes an appearance in some of the videos.. I am a dog lover and my dogs sit around in the room while I work out also.

Love this. I’m not prenatal but still so good. I love your tone when guiding. Very relaxed and not rushed. It makes it so easy to get through the workout but feels like a great challenge in the end. I really look forward to exercising with you.

Good to see this on #asummerofstrength2019. It is a sneaky one. I was challenged using my 10lb set. I really liked it and enjoyed the music a lot too.

Thanks for this great workout! I am 9+2 weeks pregnant and have been looking for great workouts. Your three prenatal workouts from years ago are great too! Are you planning on making more prenatal workouts or maybe a playlist of your workouts that are safe to do during pregnancy? I have been doing your knee strengthening workout for a long time now (once a week) and would like to continue, but I am not sure whether I should do, for example, the bridge-exercise (with the ball rolling with your foot).

Also, who is in the room with you? I heard someone cough 😉

I used my 10 pounds with this one. Controlling them at the slow speed made this one surprisingly challenging. Great for a hot, humid day here.

Not pregnant but did this with 8 and 15 lbs and sped it up a half beat and it was great. If I were pregnant up to 26 weeks I would have done it as I did it because I did not exercise slow during my pregnancy. Overall a great workout esp for third trimester folks.

Do you have anything similar to this on DVD? I'm currently not able to stream regularly and I desperately need to add some gentle exercise in. If you could point me towards specific dvds (or workouts within certain collections like the transformation set (sorry blanking on the name)) I'd be super grateful!

After an almost 4 month hiatus (death of my dad, excessive family emergencies, health issues, etc.) I decided it was time to start looking after myself and my health and get back to Jessicasmithtv. I started with Fit in 15 Jump Start Cardio and then I followed up with this Standing Strength-my first time doing this and it was just great! Thanks, Jessica!

I am post menopause rather than pre natal but this workout is fantastic because you can just choose the weight you need. I was definitely challenged using my 10lb set today and needed to change down on one exercise as my muscles were tired yet, I changed up to my 12lb set for another. I enjoyed this a lot and it is a positive start to the Healthy for the Holidays challenge.
