In Day 7 of Foundations, I'm not able to stand up from the floor without using my hands. Is there a modification?
There are definitely modifications! You can always hold onto something to support yourself or place your hands on your knee to help yourself push-up from kneeling. Many moms use this extra support as they work on building up their strength.
It's also okay if the sequence isn't possible for you. There are other ways to get up from the floor.
Try going into a hands and knees position on the floor (instead of sitting back on your legs) and then into a half-kneeling position. From there you can stand up while holding onto something.
The point is to get on and off the floor safely by letting your core and legs do the majority of the work. However, it's not necessary for you to be able to do the moves in that video before moving on to Day 8.
