How to lose post pregnancy weight?
What exercises to include in your post pregnancy exercise routine
Before starting your post pregnancy exercise routine ask your doctor whether it is time to start workout. I can help you to lose post pregnancy weight, but I can not consult you for the right time to start exercise – I mean assure yourself that you are recovered after delivery and your body is ready for hard work
.
Walking and jogging
Before starting regular post pregnancy exercise routine, prepare your body with 1 hour walk every day. May be at the beginning you will find that long walks make you tired and you will feel your foots and joints sore. There is nothing scary in this, just go on walking.
After one week long walks you can start short jogging sessions. At the beginning you will experience difficulties, don’t give up – it is okay to jog for a minute or two, than to rest for a while (don’t sit, rest means to walk) and after that continue jogging. Try to do this for 30 minutes.
Alternate jogging and walking until you find yourself jogging more than 10 minutes without a brake. This shows you are ready for hard work.
Exercises for every main muscle group in your body
Forget about loosing weight only from your abs, or only from hips or butt!
You can’t spot your body!
You have to do balanced strength training workout for all muscles and you can combine it with body weight exercises. I like very much body weight exercises, because they are very similar to movements you do in your regular life and they help you to feel better the whole day.
Diet plan is a very important part from your post pregnancy exercise routine
I will tell you this very short!
You have to limit yourself only to good foods!
You will eat good food (you will not stay hungry) but forget for 3 months about – ice cream, pancakes, biscuits, chocolate, sweets and everything that has sugar.
Post Pregnancy Workout Video
For this video you need small empty space at your home and 2 dumbbells. My dumbbells weight 4 kilos each (app. 8 pounds per dumbbell).
How to choose the proper dumbbell weight?
If you do 8-12 reps with the weight this is the right weight for you. If you can do more than 12 reps – this weight is light for you. If you do less than 8 reps, the weight is too heavy for you. There is no proper weight, every person have to try and to discover the proper weight.
