With an uncomplicated delivery, I started the easiest workouts around 2 weeks postpartum. However, before beginning any activity postpartum, it is strongly recommended to speak with your healthcare provider. Individual circumstances may necessitate adaptation or a different timeline.

There are 12 workouts included in the program. Each workout ideally should be repeated 2-3x before moving on to the next for proper progression. I would plan to do the workouts like this: - for each week, follow one workout - complete the workout 2-4x during the week - if you've been able to complete the workout at least 2-3x and feel good, move on to the next the following week!

I highly recommend a yoga mat, loop resistance bands, and a Pilates ball. However, if you don't have access to those, all the exercises can be modified! Any banded exercises can be done without one, and a Pilates ball can be replaced with a pillow.
