Frequently answered questions

It depends on the area, and also on the individual. Each of us is a bit different. Based on my and industry experience: 

  • You will feel your back pain being released after each class, from the very beginning!

  • It can take you a couple of weeks to notice a better posture, not only during the classes, but in your normal life as well. 

  • It usually takes 1-2 months to notice that your belly is getting flatter and your whole core more toned, more sporty. 

  • To decrease incontinence symptoms might take a couple of months

Results will come, just be consistent with the practice!


Consistency is key. Aim for 2-3 sessions of 20-30 minutes per week or 5-10 minutes daily for noticeable results: more bladder control, less back pain.

Absolutely! The beauty of Low Pressure fitness is that ANYBODY at ANY fitness level or age can start it. 

You don’t have to be athletic, neither flexible, nor strong. The whole point of the classes is to make you feel good in and about your body, while building up mobility, flexibility, good posture and strength together. Just come with an open mind. As long as you show up and do your best, you’ll benefit from Low Pressure Fitness.

I offer during the classes and the videos several modifications. You decide which one is for you, the postures are fully adaptable to individual needs. 


Yes, hypopressives can be combined with other fitness methods. It complements other forms of exercise by improving core stability, posture, and breathing efficiency, which can enhance your overall performance.

It is even recommended to do a couple of minutes of LPF after weight training, just to lift and relax your pelvic floor again and calm down. 

High-impact sports like running, jumping or even heavy weightlifting WITH BAD BREATHING PATTERN can be potentially harmful if your pelvic floor is weak or overly tense. 

However, once your pelvic floor is well-trained—healthy, functional, strong, and not tense—you should be able to enjoy most of these activities, as long as they feel comfortable for you. 

A key is to use the correct breathing pattern and rhytm, which you will learn on my courses and classes.

The one activity I don’t recommend at all is trampoline jumping (or similar), as our bodies were not designed to adapt to this type of repetitive impact during evolution.

Of course, always consult your doctor before starting ANY activity, especially, if you have any preexisting conditions. 

If your pelvic floor is weak or tense, start with low-impact activities like swimming, walking or yoga. These are gentle and help you build core strength and stability without putting undue pressure on the pelvic floor.

Once your pelvic floor is stronger and functional, I highly recommend incorporating strength training. For women 40+, strength training is a game-changer, the ultimate anti-aging pill, offering benefits like:

  • Increased bone density to reduce the risk of osteoporosis.

  • Strong glutes and back muscles, which are essential for a healthy posture, which is key to take pressure off the pelvic floor.

  • Better balance and coordination to prevent falls and injuries.

  • Improved muscle tone for a leaner, stronger appearance.

  • Boosted metabolism, helping you maintain a healthy weight.

  • Enhanced joint health, reducing pain and stiffness.

  • Increased energy levels and reduced fatigue.

  • Better mental health, with reduced stress and improved confidence.

Of course, always consult your doctor before starting ANY activity, especially, if you have any preexisting conditions. 

And it is crucial to use the correct breathing pattern and rhytm to protect your back, abs and pelvic floor!

You can learn it on my courses and classes.

No problem, you can make the class with your camera switched off. In this case I will not be able to correct you, you will have to watch your posture, breathing, and moving.


Low Pressure Fitness live ZOOM classes typically last 30- 35 minutes. We start with warmup, then we do a flow, which means breathing and postural exercises including relaxation techniques, and finish with cooldown / stretching. Each class is different, so that you would never be bored. 

The live ZOOM beginner Low Pressure Fitness coaching course sessions last 45 minutes.

Low Pressure Fitness videos are 8-30 minutes long. The longer ones have the same structure as the live classes (above), the shorter ones include breathing & postural exercises. I recommend doing the separate warmup video before starting the shorter video classes.

I offer during the classes and the videos several modifications. You decide which one is for you, the postures are fully adaptable to individual needs.
