1) Ask a doctor first: “A new mother should first wait until she gets clearance from her doctor, and she can immediately start by making healthy food choices,” says celebrity trainer Jeanette Jenkins.
2) 5-day-a-week workouts: Jenkins proscribes working out five days a week combining endurance exercises like circuit training or running with flexibility training like yoga and Pilates. “A weekly workout regimen should include all of the components of fitness – cardio, flexibility, muscular strength and muscular endurance.”
3) Pig out on the weekends: According to Jenkins, “if you make healthy food choices 80 percent of the time and eat whatever you like 20 percent of the time, then you will have great results. I recommend to my clients to eat healthy Monday through Friday and then let go on the weekend and enjoy yourself.”
4) Have fun: Don’t run if you don’t like running, advises Jenkins. “The goal is to find activities and workouts that you enjoy so that you keep it a part of your life forver. Consistently mix it up. Try yoga, Pilates, playing in the park with your kids, hiking and kickboxing.”
5) If all else fails, push the stroller: Don’t let you husband do all the heavy lifting, “A walk with the baby in a stroller is good enough. It will help a mother lose their extra baby weight by boosting metabolic rate and increasing caloric expenditure.”
