HATE TO LEAVE YA'LL HANGING BUUUUT

Man this is the first time I've moved my body since Friday. When I tell ya'll I've been so sick 😫

I literally couldn't hold my head up longer than like 10 minutes tops. Having an autoimmune disorder and getting sick is the worst combination ever.

On top of being sick, my mental health was outta wack because fitness is my release...so the past few days have been a battle with the last 2 including me barely getting out of the bed

I'm still not 100%...but I am getting there...I didn't do any cardio because breathing is still challenging 🙃 😅 I also opted for the lowest impact thing I could accomplish. Which was this workout with some restorative yoga.

I stuck with ankle weights just for a little extra push. This workout is really great for your lower abs (better known as the fupa area). I did 3 sets of everything and tried to get 10-15 reps in each time.

Gonna attempt actually going to work today...not sure if it will help or make me worse so if I don't post tomorrow that's why.. either way always listen to your body and don't try to push yourself just to get a workout in.

If you're dealing with an autoimmune disorder, finding the right fitness regime can be complicated. Restorative yoga is an excellent way to reconnect with your body while maintaining low impact. Many find workouts focused on the lower abs effective, especially techniques involving ankle weights to gently challenge the fupa area. It's crucial to listen to your body and respect its limits, choosing movements that feel comfortable and nurturing rather than punitive. Explore beginner-friendly workouts that are crafted to minimize strain yet effectively promote strength and healing. Don't hesitate to seek guidance from health professionals when necessary, and always prioritize mental wellness alongside physical fitness. Developing a consistent routine, even if it's just gentle stretching or breathing exercises, can significantly improve mental clarity and emotional resilience. Embrace community support through online forums focused on autoimmune-friendly workouts, where sharing experiences and advice can foster a sense of connection and motivation during tough times.

Thanks for sharing! This looks like something I could actually do, I’ve let myself go for so long and I’ve got to start somewhere 🥰

Thank you for sharing! Ankle weights are a good idea for these. It’s also nice to see a normal lived in home and a normal mom body doing normal exercises. Not staged overly aesthetic stuff . Thank you.

cortisol is your stress hormone that tells your body, "hey 👏🏻 it's go time! time to get into action." that's all really great when you're running from a tiger, buuuut now tigers look like slack notifications that won't stop going off or stress over a long to do list.
