OutMat Excercises: Whole Body

 

Here are some helpful tips from experts at Mommy Moves Fitness, located in the Tri-State area. Visit them at www.mommy-moves.com.

 

Pushups with Baby:
Lay baby on her back on your OutMat and get into a push-up position, putting your hands on either side of your little one. You can be on your toes or on your knees. Give baby a big kiss each time you bend your elbows; repeat 10 times. Your entire upper body will thank you!

 

Crunches with Baby:
Lie on your back with your knees bent. Sit baby on your pelvis and allow him to lean back against your legs. Contracting your abdominal muscles, lift your head and shoulders off the mat just a few inches. Smile and make a funny face each time you crunch; this will be sure to garner some giggles. Repeat 10 times. This will help tighten and tone those post-partum tummy muscles!

 

Baby Arm Raises:
Sit cross-legged on your OutMat and hold baby under her arms standing up, facing you. Keep your arms straight (but elbows soft). Take a deep breath in and as you are exhaling lift baby up and over your head. Repeat 10 times. You will have beautiful toned shoulders before you know it!

 

Baby Squats:
Standing up with feet a little more than hip-distance apart, hold your baby in your arms facing out. Bend your knees and push your butt back until your legs are in a 90 degree angle (CAREFUL: Don't let your knees go past your toes- make sure you can see your shoelaces at all times!). Pause at the bottom and then come back up. Repeat 10 times. A great way to get ready for swimsuit season!
