Drawing In: This exercise is perfect for women who just had a baby for the reason that not only will it help you lose weight, but it will strengthen your back, abs and overall core, which will help your posture and increase your metabolism at the same time. For this work out, get down on all fours and put your hands right under your shoulders. Pull your abs in and make sure that your neck and spine stay in a single line. Take a breath in through your nose while keeping your back straight and then breathe back out while pulling your belly button in while trying to keep your spine still. Do this twelve times and then do three sets of twelve to really work out your abs and your core.
The Super Crunch: This work out should be included as part of every post-birth workout. In this exercise, you need to lie down while keeping your knees bent and your feet sitting flat on the floor. Keep your hands behind your head while, as you inhale and exhale, you lift your head and your shoulders off of the floor. Stay in that position as you lift your knees up to touch your elbows while you also lift your hips up off of the ground a little bit. Return to your beginning position. Do three sets of twelve to twenty and your abdominals will be rock tricky in no time, and that weight will start coming off too. More for the baby: handprint frames for baby
Lunges: Lunges work the major muscle groups in your legs, which means they're going to be great calorie burners. Not only do these lunges help you lose pounds, they build your muscles which helps you burn calories, even while you are resting. To begin a real lunge, put your hands on your hips, stand with your feet hip-width apart and draw in your abs. Move your left foot forward until your leg bands at a 90 degree angle. With your right leg still straight, lower your body until that knee almost touches the floor. Slowly raise yourself back up and repeat the action with your left leg. Do this five times on each side for a killer leg workout.
Each of these exercises can be done while your child takes a nap. Even if your only option is to do lots of shorter exercises during your day instead of doing a single, long workout it is far better to do that than not to work out at all. You can lose the newborn weight, you just have to want it. Thankfully, each of these three exercises will help you get there--if you do them often enough.
