Walking Exercise Dvds For Women
Pregnancy Workout Dvds
While having a baby is a beautiful thing, it does have positive and negative effects on our bodies. After your pregnancy, you lose muscle definition and gain baby fat. Getting your body back to its prenatal size after baby is not a quick and easy process. It will take a lot of patience due to the weak condition of your body, especially after the first few weeks of your pregnancy.
The First Two Weeks
This is the time where your body is most liable. You will need to deter from any heavy lifting and abdominal exercises since these can cause your body to react negatively and cause serious injury. During the first two weeks you can try walking as early as the day after your pregnancy. Walking can help tone muscles as well as help your bowels function properly and deter blood clots from forming. Keep your walking to a minimumby starting out slowly and abstain pushing yourself. An easy way to add walking to your busy day is to take your baby boy or baby girl for a walk. Start Off with about 10-15 minutes a few days a week.
The Third and Fourth Week
During the second two weeks after giving birth, you can try doing some abdominal crunches if you feel comfortable doing so. Start slowly and keep your reps to a minimum. Now is also a great time to boostyour walking to 30 minutes a day, or you can try simple exercises for the legs such as leg lifts. You can also begin working out your arms. For change you can add very light weights to your pregnancy workouts. Don’t forget to incorporate some light stretches into your workout routine.
The Fifth and Sixth Week
Now that your body has had some time to heal, you can start adding the workouts you did before you were pregnant, back into your routine. Don’t add them all at once, however. Keep things gradual until you are comfortable with your workout routine. Don’t forget to stretch before you start your workout. If you went to the gym before baby, why not set up a gym at home? Or you can try a pregnancy fitness dvd if space is limited at home. Keep in mind that the above is only a guide. If you’re breast-feeding your child, you should workout after you have nursed since exercise can cause your breast milk to taste differently. Also, overdoing your workout can cause your milk supply to cutback. Another thing to keep in mind is that not every woman is the same after having a baby. Some women may require more time for their body to heal before they are able to start any form of exercise again. If you have had a c-section, you should be especially careful and consult your doctor before starting any aerobics regimen.
