I’m 7 months postpartum after baby number 3 still working on my mom pooch! So I spend the first 5-10 minutes of every workout on my core.
Here’s one of my circuits.👇
1️⃣ Bear hold with leg extension
Your deep core has to work hard to keep your hips and back still while one leg slides back.
2️⃣ Glute bridge with adductor squeeze
I squeeze a ball between my knees, but a pillow works too. Your inner thighs team up with your pelvic floor and deep core, and you get glute work too.
3️⃣ Chest fly deadbug
Moving the weights while your legs move makes your core work to keep your low back down the whole time. The ball makes you have to stabilize more.
4️⃣ Side plank dumbbell reach through
Reach the weight under your body, then rotate back open. This hits your obliques, which help pull everything in at the waist.
Reminder that if your belly domes, bulges, or you have any pelvic pressure, dial it back a notch or tryba regressed version of the movement.
