Do you use a fitness app? If not, why not?⁣
Fitness apps are all the craze now that COVID has taken over with gyms being the second choice workout location compared to home gyms. ⁣
⁣
It’s hard to justify working out at a gym these days, and you can’t beat the time that is saved from not needing to drive. My schedule is busy, and I’m guessing yours is too. I can’t sacrifice the drive to the gym. And I do like the comfort of my home. But working out at home can be a drag at times and can get pretty mundane.⁣
⁣
If you need to kick things up a notch, whether that’s just getting some new lower body exercises, or you need an easy tracker to keep you accountable to your workouts, check out these 7 top fitness apps that are perfect for new moms. ⁣
1) 7 Minute Workout⁣
2) Interval Timer⁣
3) MyTraining Workout Tracker Log⁣
4) Couch to 5K Runner⁣
5) Adidas Runtastic⁣
6) Daily Workouts Fitness Trainer⁣
7) FitOn⁣
⁣
The best part about these apps is that they take the guessing out of your workout. All you have to do is follow along and do what it says! Get more details on these 7 apps on the blog so you can narrow it down to the one app that might be the best fit for you (see link in bio).⁣

What is your why? Why are you trying to take care

What is your why? Why are you trying to take care of yourself? Is it for your baby, your toddler, your kids, your future grandkids, your spouse, for YOU? Your choices that you make to live a healthy lifestyle will have a legacy effect on your entire family for generations to come. That's a HUGE impact and so worth the time and energy spent on your health. Don't give up and always remember your why. ⁣

Who wants to learn how to speed up childbirth? ⁣

Who wants to learn how to speed up childbirth? ⁣
But first, let's play the game "would you rather."⁣
⁣
Would you rather walk around the hospital as you wait for your baby to descend further down the birth canal or lie on your back for hours waiting for your baby to move?⁣
⁣
Would you rather have the strength to push for childbirth or be completely limp? ⁣
⁣
Would you rather be in control while pushing during delivery or not know what's going on because you can't feel your legs?⁣
⁣
Would you rather walk after childbirth to go to the bathroom or use a bed pan?⁣
⁣
Ultimately it's up to you and the choice is completely yours, no judgement here. Think outside the box for a moment about what it would be like to give birth without an epidural. Having the strength and the sensation to push your baby out of the birth canal is an experience unlike any other. And with these exercises you can learn to speed up childbirth.⁣
⁣
If you are ready and willing to give birth with strength, power and determination, with or without an epidural, then you definitely need to be doing these 6 labor and delivery exercises to get you prepared for the push of a lifetime. ⁣
⁣
These are my top physical therapy recommended exercises that I did when I was pregnant and helped me to delivery my babies quickly:⁣
⁣
1) Pelvic Tilts in Quadruped⁣
2) Kegels in Quadruped⁣
3) Walking (or any form of cardio!!!)⁣
4) Squats⁣
5) Sidelying hip add/add⁣
6) Hand Heel Rocks/Child's Pose⁣
⁣
To learn how to do these exercises visit my bio for details.⁣

Have you ever had a day like this?⁣ ⁣ Wake up,

Have you ever had a day like this?⁣
⁣
Wake up, go to the bathroom, eat, get ready, take care of the littles, feed them, clean up, play with them, feed them again, clean up again, put them down for naps, do all the things that need to be done around the house, make dinner, feed the family, clean up, bath time, bed time and then go to the bathroom for the second time that day.⁣
⁣
There was a time, a time not long ago, when I had absolutely no time to go to the bathroom all day long. Have you had days like that? Yeah, that’s when I had a 7 year old, 5 year old, 3 year old and a 1 year old at the time, and it felt like they were taking up every single minute of every single day, so much so that I couldn’t find time to go to the bathroom.⁣
⁣
And if I couldn't find time to go to the bathroom, I definitely couldn't find time to workout. ⁣
⁣
As a mom, I had a lot of excuses, and you might have the same excuse I had. Find out what the biggest excuse is for not working out as a mom (see link in bio).⁣

What is the fastest way to lose weight after pregn

What is the fastest way to lose weight after pregnancy? The answer is don’t gain too much weight above the recommended amount during pregnancy (25-35 lbs.) and focus on healthy eating, exercise and breastfeeding after childbirth.⁣
⁣
This by far is the fastest way to lose weight after having a baby. But there’s one more catch. You have to be consistent, you have to stay accountable to yourself and you can’t give up. Those moms who have the best self discipline have the best results. ⁣
⁣
It’s easy to say, “I’m going to work out every day this week,” but it’s also easy to forget to do it. ⁣
⁣
My best tip for staying consistent is setting a reminder on your phone for the same time every day you want to workout.⁣
⁣
Use that reminder as an "appointment reminder". Don’t skip your appointment with yourself to work out. You made a commitment, don’t back out now. ⁣
⁣
How do you stay consistent with your workouts each week? ⁣
