Hi! I’m Brecke from @happilyfed. I just had my 3rd baby 6 months ago. I know working out after baby can seem like the last thing on your mind. You are up all night with a new baby, body is still not feeling like itself and you are supposed get in your workout clothes and workout!!?? Seems like the worst idea.

BUT once you get just start (just a little) It will help you feel better about yourself, and you will have more energy to take care of that new little baby.

Always check with your doctor to see when it’s safe to begin working out again. AND don’t jump back into doing core work too soon. Your tummy is healing too (think how stretched out it was)

Here are 4 great exercises you can do right at home, with our without weights:

LATERAL LUNGE

weight between your legs (or no weight) lunge to one side keeping weight in the standing heel. Hold you core nice and tight. Try 12 each leg

 PLIE PUNCHES

 while in a squat feet turned out, punch those arms out from in front of you. 24 total.

 BICEP CURLS WHILE LUNGING 

walking lunges, while you are down in the lunge curl arms one at a time. Try lunging 20 times

SINGLE DEADLIFT

this is more of an advanced move, if you want you can leave both legs on the ground. Chest is lifted slowly moving the weights down your leg and lifting one in the air. Try 8 each leg.

Ok! These are a great full body exercises remember to hold your core in the entire time.
