Legs, Bums
Mums
WHAT DO WE DO?
All classes take place within your local parks, incorporating different types of exercise designed to help you get back to your old self & it’s a great place to meet new friends & introduce your baby to some new pals too!!
Included in this are walking at varying paces to warm up, stretching, followed by faster cardio work-outs for Mums with babies over 5 months old & walking at different paces for those Mums with younger babies.
This is followed by strength & toning exercises including squats & lunges & the use of different levels of resistance bands to increase the difficulty of the exercises. We also use our buggies during this part of the class & the babies can get involved too!! We are aiming to improve muscle tone & strengthen our lower & upper body.
The class concludes with abdominal work-outs with your mats & our babies love to come out of the buggy & get involved in helping the mums with their tummy exercises or just watching on a mat next to you. We are constantly talking to them & incorporating them into each part of the session.
Lastly we ensure that each muscle group is stretched out accordingly & try to finish with the all important pelvic floor muscles!!
All exercises are designed with Mums in mind & relate specifically to targeting those areas affected by childbirth! We are aiming to improve our fitness and burn fat in a safe and effective way.
PLEASE REMEMBER:
It is extremely important that we exercise ourselves in a safe & effective way following the birth of children. The effect of relaxin on our ligaments during pregnancy means that we can be more supple & pliable & if you return to high impact or inappropriate exercise too early you can put your body at unnecessary risk of injury.
When you begin your course with Legs, Bums and Mums your sessions will be specifically designed with you in mind, the age of your baby & any health concerns (or areas of concern!) you may have. This will ensure that you are getting the best workout for you & are able to achieve your fitness goals.
