Pregnancy is amazing and giving birth is absolutely wonderful, but with all the joys that come with these happy events, there are also some not so pleasing issues that new moms deal with.
One of these is getting back in shape.
While pregnancy and childbirth are magical, there is no magic when it comes to losing post-pregnancy belly fats and having flat abs again.
Moms got to work on it! Period.
Before getting into any type of post-partum fitness and exercise program, one has to understand first that the abdominal muscles have been stretched and also weakened because of the pregnancy.
So the type of exercises for this condition is more complicated than usual.
Whether giving birth was via natural or ceasarian method, it's still important to consult and get a go signal from the doctor before starting any kind of work out.
One should understand her abdominal wall structure and functions to safely and effectively get flat abs again.
Eating right and exercising the proper way is necessary.
Include lots of fruits, vegetables and healthy fats in your meal.
Learn to control the shape of the abdominal wall during exercise.
Reconditioning from the inside out is important.
Strengthen first your deepest abdominal muscle, the Transverse Abdominis.
Walking is definitely a good way to start your postpartum exercise routine.
Combine cardio exercises with abdominal crunches.
After some time, you can also try kegel and oblique exercises.
But remember don't over exert yourself doing any kind of exercise! You don't want to hurt yourself and make things worse.
Your aim is to feel and look better, recondition and get flat, sexy abs again.
