Right after giving birth and bring the baby home, many mothers feel the urge and anxiety to get back on track. But hold on, do not jump straight into excising. Giving birth is stressful for the body and you do need to let it recover and rest. Famous personal trainers recommend giving your body 2 months after birth before heading to the gym. We would advise you to work closely with your doctor, before doing anything.
Once you have rested and recovered here are the 3 exercise which will get you in shape in no time:
Focus: Abs
Lie down flat on your back, lift your legs up and keep them diagonal, crisscross them alternatively, keep abs tight.
Focus: Thighs and butt
Begin on all your fours: get down on knees-hips width apart, place your hands down on the mat as well. Extend one of your legs with a pointed toe and reach toward the ceiling. Then, slowly lower your leg and tap the floor and then repeat. Keep squeezing your glutes as you lift your leg.
Don’t forget to switch legs.
Focus: Gluteus maximus, quadriceps, adductors and calves.
Clasp your hands in front of your chest and stand with your feet hip-width apart. Take a big step with your right leg to the side, push your hips back, then bend your knee and lower your body to the point where your knee is bent 90 degrees. Then push back the start and repeat.
Don’t forget to switch legs.
