5 most frequent fitness mistakes of young moms

Now is such a strange time when womenshy of your body after childbirth. To leave the maternity hospital less slender than the inborn phytones, is considered almost a sign of a different taste. It was Hillary Baldwin who undertook the tendency to break, which the next day after giving birth - there was a saggy tummy and a waist that swam away - everything is like in normal people. But even then Hillary admitted that such a coming-out is an incentive to quickly put herself in order. Looking at models, Victoria's Secret angels and other social lionesses who, just a week after giving birth, look like they were never pregnant, we are making money imagine the complexes. Well, what a sin to conceal, the truth is gaining. We are trying to match the glossy picture. And we make mistakes on this arduous path.Photo:@fashionablefitmumHere, for example, is 27-year-old fitness trainer and blogger Brittany Noonan. She herself recently became a mother. After the birth of her daughter, Brittany decided to explain to women once and for all what they are doing wrong, trying to get back into shape before pregnancy as quickly as possible. The first and most important mistake is precisely “as quickly as possible.” Even six weeks after giving birth is too early for the gym. “Give your body time to recover. Let everything heal properly. I myself returned to exercise only 10 weeks after giving birth. I had a cesarean section, and I wanted to give myself enough time to get back to normal,” says Brittany. The trainer insists: listen to your body, to your feelings. If you feel that exercise is causing you discomfort, wait a little longer. Feb 9 2017 at 1:12 PSTThe second mistake is that mothers compare themselves to Instagram icons. — We all have different bodies, and we all experience pregnancy and childbirth differently, — Brittany explains. — There is no need to scroll through Instagram and compare yourself to other mothers who often have more time, money, and are often in better physical fitness. Only when you feel ready, return to sports. But not to the same level of exercise. Forcing your muscles to work as intensely as before giving birth is wrong. — Before returning to fitness, I took long walks with a stroller and did exercises to strengthen the pelvic floor, — Brittany says. Jan 27 2017 at 12:52 PSTThe third mistake is that mothers start doing intense abdominal exercises to make their stomachs flat again. You shouldn’t do this either. Crunches and body lifts should be avoided until you have fully recovered. Jan 25 2017 at 12:16 PSTFourth, you train alone. The process of getting back into shape will go much faster if you find like-minded people. Even on Skype. And a good trainer. - A specialist will tell you what and how to do in order to lose weight, tone up, and not harm yourself. Remember: during pregnancy and childbirth, our body experiences stress and changes a lot, - warns the fitness mom. Jan 22 2017 at 11:41 PSTNow that her daughter Brittany is already one and a half years old, mom tries to go to the gym three times a week. If it doesn’t work out, she trains at home for 15-20 minutes. And that’s enough! - Don’t put too much pressure on yourself. This is the fifth most common mistake, - added Brittany. - Do the exercises slowly, listen to your body, how it reacts to the load. Catch a pace and rhythm that is comfortable for you. Understand that you won't be able to jump right back into doing barbell squats, intense back workouts, or 10-mile runs. It can take a long time. And that's okay. Also interesting:
