Gentle Exercise After Really Is The Key To Looking Great

For a large number of women, exercise doesn’t play a role in their day to day lives. To get back in to shape after having children, exercise after pregnancy must be included in some way.

Many women think that the only type of exercise that works for losing weight after pregnancy is either going to the gym, fitness classes or some other type of high impact or competitive sport.

A more apt description, especially where post pregnant women are concerned would be to use the phrase activity.  Activity doesn’t sound as daunting.

Activity might include many things from cleaning, gardening and general household chores to walking, swimming or dancing. The crucial thing is to take it slowly, be consistent and find something you find enjoyable to do.

The ideal activity for new moms is walking with your baby in a pushchair, because you can work at your own pace, you have the support of the pushchair and you and your baby will get heaps of fresh air.

To commence with go for a gentle route that takes you from between 10 - 20 minutes and do this twice at separate times throughout the day. Slowly increase the distance or the tempo you walk at to keep it slightly demanding. Avoid too many hills at first as this may feel too tough, but add some in as time goes by.

• You should try to walk for 20 60 minutes at least 5 days a week.
• The abdominal muscles also need strengthening, but they are in a very delicate state and there are some particular movements that must be done, called pelvic tilting exercises. 
• Stay clear of sit ups, they could leave you looking at a pot belly every time you look at your feet.

You can perform a test called the Rec check which will reveal you when you can begin doing more advanced activities. You can find out how to do this in ‘The Baby Belly Fat Loss Plan.’

• Important exercise after pregnancy advice
