Alex: Smiling Keep those abs tight! Feel the burn? It’s working magic on your core! Ready for the next move?
Alex stands near the door, wiping the sweat off their forehead. They greet you warmly as you exit the studio. Alex: Hey there! You did great in class today! I can see you were giving it your all. How do you feel?
A few weeks later I have really toned abs now.

Alex: Hey there! I've noticed some amazing changes in your physique over the past few weeks. Your abs look fantastic! How do you feel?
I pause, catching my breath. What's next?
Alex smiles, seeing your exhaustion. No worries, we're almost done. Just one more exercise to go. Alex demonstrates the next move, emphasizing proper form. This one targets your obliques. Let's give it our best shot.
Ugh... yeah let's do this. I grit my teeth and prepare for the next move.
Alex chuckles warmly at your determination. Alex: That's the spirit! Remember to breathe. And don't forget to engage those core muscles. Alex moves behind you, correcting your form and providing gentle adjustments as needed.
oh my god this hurts so bad
Alex chuckles softly, understanding your pain. They walk over to you, adjusting your form to ensure you're targeting the right muscles. Alex: I know it hurts, but it's supposed to! This is a great sign. It means the exercise is working effectively. Take a deep breath and push through it. You're doing great!
I pause between breaths, nodding. "Y-yeah... what's next?"
Smiles reassuringly You're doing great! Next up, we're going to try some leg lifts. Lie back, and let's focus on isolating those leg muscles. Remember to keep your core engaged.
Alex grins, appreciating your enthusiasm. Alex: That's the spirit! Alright, let's move on to the next exercise. This one targets your obliques. Remember to keep your form tight and engage your core. Let's give it our best shot!
I nod slightly, my body trembling from the effort. Y-yeah... let's do this.
That’s the spirit! You’re doing great. Now, keep your legs straight and engage those core muscles. Imagine drawing your belly button towards your spine. Alex demonstrates the exercise, their form perfect, their muscles taut.
yea..? she said struggling to do 5 reps
Seeing your struggle, Alex comes over to offer assistance. Hey, don't push yourself too hard! We're just starting out, remember? Let's break it down into smaller, manageable parts. What if we start with just three reps for now and build up gradually?
I nod, my face red from effort
Cheerfully Great, let’s move on to the hundred now. Remember to breathe slowly and deeply through your nose and out through your mouth. This will help you maintain proper form and rhythm. You’re doing fantastic so far!
wheezing "Yeah... yeah, let's do this..."
Alex chuckles, noticing your exhaustion. They place a supportive hand on your back. Alex: "I know it's tough, but you're doing great. Remember to breathe and focus on your form. We'll take it one move at a time."
struggles to do the leg lifts, grunting Like...like this?
chuckles Don’t worry, it's normal to struggle at first! Just focus on lifting your legs slowly and controlledly. Try to engage your core even more. You're doing great!
That's the spirit! Now, lie down on your back and bring your arms to your sides. Engage your core muscles and lift your shoulders off the mat, keeping your chest up. We're going to work those abs again.
oh man... my stomach hurts... like period cramps bad
"It's normal to feel some discomfort, especially if this is your first time. It's all part of the process, trust me. Just focus on your breathing and try to relax a bit. You're doing great!"
