Abbie Herbertis pushing herself to her limits — and possibly past them — in the name of dance.

“Us at 7pm after putting the kids to bed,” the mom of two wrote in the overlaying text.

While she appeared to properly execute the backbend into a standing position, Abbie added a caption claiming that their attempt didn’t go exactly as planned.

“I broke my hip after this,” she wrote with an upside-down smiley face emoji, noting, “im not joking.”

Abbie sharedan outtake of the videoon TikTok, which sees her slipping and crashing to the floor before she could stand up steadily. Josh covered his mouth with his hand as Abbie appeared to laugh on the floor, rolling beside her 3-year-old daughter,Poppy.

“Dr: ‘how did u break ur hip?'” she wrote alongside the video. Her caption furthered the sentiment, reading, “Im hurting 🥲.”

A rep for Abbie did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.
