Baby Friendly Tummy Workouts

Hey there.

I wanted to share a neat video that I found the other day.

I love this video. I wish someone would have shown me this when my kids were little. My biggest excuse for not working out after having kids was that I didn’t have enough time.

These baby friendly tummy workouts are a great way for you to burn some calories and spend time with your baby.

Here’s some notes that I took on the video:

Baby Teaser – Lift your baby from side to side as you exhale each time. Work on a set of 6 to 12. This exercise will strengthen your core. Especially your obliques.

Squat to Press – Works the lower body, your heart rate, shoulders and your core. Hold your baby under their arms. Squat with your knees behind your toes. Make sure you hold your stomach in. Inhale while your squatting then exhale and press up. Lift the baby up above your head. Work to 12 to 16 reps.

Pelvic Clock – Works your pelvic floor. A strong pelvic floor is important for a flat tummy. You just do little circles clockwise and counter clockwise. Make sure that you aren’t using your rear end or your legs. It may take a little practice to get the hang of it.

Pretty neat huh?
