This workout is also under upper body workouts but it’s a great one for my post partum mamas.

Low impact, minimal equipment.

Make it burn!

• Start by standing with your feet together - In one motion, jump your feet out to the side and raise your arms above your head 
• Immediately reverse the motion by jumping back to the starting position
• Increase speed as you feel comfortable
• Keep your core engaged and be light on your feet ! Keep a slight head to your knees

Jumping jacks

- Hinge at the hips 
- Explode forward with your hips, core is engaged 
- Engage your glutes as your hips come forward 
- Raise the dumbbell(s) to about shoulder height

Can perform this with one heavier dumbbell or two. Notice a slight rounding to my upper back and keeping my chin slightly tucked helps engage the glutes more

Dumbbell swings

• Hold onto dumbbells down to your sides, palms facing inward (toward body) 
• Keep shoulders down, neck relaxed, slight bend to your knees, core engaged 
• Curl the dumbbells up to your shoulders and then press them up to the ceiling 
• Slowly reverse the movements and go back to starting position 

** adjust your weight to make the reps challenging. I am using 25lb dumbbells . I’d recommend somewhere between 10-25lbs

Standing Curl Press

Shoulder & Bicep Cardio Circuit 1

• Rest Swiss ball against a wall
• Lean back onto ball, knees bent and wide foot stance

Inclined Shoulder Press (Swiss Ball)

• Hold ball above head, core engaged
• Begin performing jumping lunges with ball staying overhead 

** don’t forget each side

Jump left & switch = 1rep

Swiss Ball Jumping Lunge

Shoulder Press (Swiss Ball)

Shoulder & Bicep Cardio Circuit 2

• Hold dumbbells at side with palms facing your body and thumbs facing up, keep a slight bend to your knees with neck relaxed 
• pinch your shoulders back a bit and begin performing a hammer curl (1 side at a time) for the allotted time

Speed Hammer Curls

- Holding a weight with your arms extended overhead
- Lift one knee up as you lower the weight, meeting in the center of your body
- Extend both your leg and arms back out
- Complete desired reps then repeat on the opposite side

** don’t forget the other side

Weighted side knee tuck

- Sitting on bench, hold weights down by side facing away from body 
- Bend at elbows to curl weights towards shoulders, keeping palms facing away from your body
- Lower back down and rotate hands so that palms face you as you curl up again 
- Keep spine long

Narrow x wide hammer curl

Easy to follow PP exercise. I am 1 year PP, so very delayed, but I never did anything to restore my pelvic floor muscles so I’m incorporating this exercise into my routine to make sure I do that before I decide to have my next baby.

Jordyn Morgan

Great! let's hope i can remember to do this 2x a day!!

Allison

I already did this regularly before but had been doing the opposite, inhaling with the contraction and exhaling with the release, so now I’m off on the right foot.
