The Best Way to Lose Weight After Having a Baby



Losing the weight you gained throughout your pregnancy is a top priority, add a post pregnancy workout to your arsenal to help lose this weight fast. Fortunately for you there are alot of exercises available that are both effective and fun. The following tactics will help you supercharge that workout routine to get you back into your pre-pregnancy clothing in no time.

Leg Kicks: This is a great exercise to get your heartbeat up and strengthens your abs. To start, lie down on your side with your body bent at the waist in a pike position. Bend one leg to help you hold your balance and straighten your top leg and bring it forward as far as you can. Keeping your leg in the air, move it backwards to hover over the leg that is bent. Don't lower your leg but repeat the movement ten times. Roll over and repeat on the other side. Do three reps on each side and you'll see results in no time.

Bridge Squeeze: To do this exercise, lie on your back while bending your knees but keeping your feet flat on the floor. Put a pillow between your knees and draw in your abs. Breathe in and then back out as you tighten your bottom muscles and left your hips to make your body form a straight line. Squeeze the pillow for two counts and then lower your hips back down. Do three sets of ten.

The Bicycle: Don't worry, this doesn't involve an actual bicycle. This is an ab exercise that works well for women who want to lose weight after giving birth. First, lie down on the floor with your knees bent and your calves parallel to your floor. Put your hands behind your head and breathe in and then out while also drawing in your abs. Keep your posterior muscles relaxed as you stretch out your right leg and move your right shoulder to your left knee. Your head and shoulders should not be resting on the floor for this movement. Then, after going back to your starting position, repeat the movement with your other side. Do three sets of between twelve and twenty reps and you'll soon see that your baby weight has faded away. If you keep up with these exercises three or more days a week and eating right you will shed that baby weight fast.
