I tried the WONDER CORE SMART SIT UP machine: is it worth it? An honest review

[@thighsthelimit]

I could not have asked for a more amazing sponsor with trainwell. Y'all don't forget to try 14 days for free with your trainwell personal trainer here: trytrainwell.net/thighsthelimit #ad I think you will love it as much as I do! Don't forget to comment and tell me what product I should review next!

[@Izanuela22]

I must say…I was positively overwhelmed by your presentation of yourself…! I had been overweight most of my life. There was a five year period where I was super lean and fit (we are talking iron man fit…), but then came life and kicked me in the butt several times and now I am back to fat again.. And I can barely look into the mirror and constantly say horrible things about myself. And the way you described your body was sooo funny and refreshing and all the time I thought „she is really awesome!“ and then I thought „why can’t I think about myself in this way?“ Anyway…I think you are a great inspiration and you made me smile a lot!

[@thighsthelimit]

Thank you! It's crazy how hard it can be to not only get but stay healthy/fit. Life really likes to throw some curveballs. For whatever it's worth from a stranger on the internet, you ARE pretty awesome! Don't forget to keep reminding yourself of that every now and then. :)

I watched this while on my stepper, love a sneaky workout

[@thighsthelimit]

yay! Love the steppers!

[@Chipster724]

Congrats on your first sponsor!!

[@thighsthelimit]

Thank you!

[@BlahBoo93]

Daaaang you are looking great! Congrats on the sponsorship and thank you for the in-depth review. Def saw improvement, keep up the great work! Sorry for your hand it’s always so frustrating when you’re trying to be active and get slowed down due to an injury.

[@thighsthelimit]

Thank you! I definitely miss being the uninjured speedy me. Hopefully I can get back to normal soon!

[@bonnieallen4236]

Thanks for the review! I like how you keep it real, makes it easy to relate to you! Hope your wrist heals quickly!

[@thighsthelimit]

You are so welcome! And thank you! 3 more weeks in the brace and then I can follow up with my doctor. Can't wait to have 2 functioning wrists again lol.

[@moniquecastelli8058]

Just found your videos and am loving them!! Your personality is great ❤

[@thighsthelimit]

Thank you! I'm glad you're enjoying them!

For anyone not wanting to spend money. Look up some deep core exercises. Research how to engage your deepest core muscle. (Tuck your tailbone) And do those exercises. It’s not inches off!!! But your belly will be less saggy and more perky. Don’t know how to explain. I’m overweight, but every time I do those exercises. I see and feel a difference. Also great great exercise for overall health

[@thighsthelimit]

Absolutely! It's called a posterior pelvic tilt, and it's a great starting point

[@DivaandtheDivine]

This is SO interesting to me. My core is very weak, so I'm wondering if this would actually help get me started on a core-strengthening routine.

[@thighsthelimit]

It certainly wouldn't hurt. There's tons of different ways to engage your core, I think the secret is finding the way that you enjoy so you can stick with it

[@MsJoce1234]

Ooh…I want to get this, but when it goes on sale! I do a lot of sitting around, reading, TV, too! Great video, and I love your honesty and body positivity!

[@thighsthelimit]

Thank you! And those books and shows can really suck you in!

[@Jakey_Knotts.crochet]

Have you been seeing the squat machine on tiktok? As soon as I caved and bought the mini stepper the squat machine started attacking my fyp😂😂

[@thighsthelimit]

😅 there's always something new! I haven't seen it yet though, I'll keep an eye out for it

[@no_life_til_libra]

That stir fry portion is a little small but not by much. I would put it on top of rice or cauliflower rice to make it a good portion.

[@thighsthelimit]

Good idea! Cauliflower rice is a life saver. It's crazy how different at home portions are from what they serve in restaurants. It definitely takes some getting used to.

[@ikanc7516]

I have one of these and I find that my lower back hurts a lot after my workout. Does anyone else experience this?

[@thighsthelimit]

If it is specifically with core ab workout where you lean back(like the one I'm doing in the thumbnail), it might be your form. If you are arching your back instead of hinging back at the hips, it can aggravate it. I'd recommend trying to tuck your pelvis in a little before doing the motion. It's kind of hard to explain, but kind of like trying to use those lower abs to push your belly button down/back toward your spine(you can also think of it as if you had a tail and were trying to angle your hips to where you tucked the tail back between your legs. Description sounds strange but makes sense to some lol) . You can also try starting with a smaller range of motion. Instead of trying to push it all the way down, go halfway each time and stick with that until you can build up that strength some more where you back won't be hurting. Hope that helps!

[@ikanc7516]

@ thank you!!!
