Mommy & Me Save time and get fit with baby on board

Hey there, momma! Are you feeling cooped up and craving some exercise? Does it seem like you can never sneak away to work out without the kiddos following along? How about the notorious wake up from naptime right when you start your exercise? You are not alone in this. One of the most common complaints moms have is their lack of time. Being a mom can be physically and mentally exhausting, but one of the best ways to combat both of these is to move your body. Getting up and getting active is so important for your mental and physical health. I am sure this seems impossible considering you are never alone or free to do anything, but we have you covered. Here is a great workout for both you and baby. It is postpartum safe and a fun way to incorporate your not so helpful spotter.

CIRCUIT Perform 12-15 reps of each exercise back to back and then rest for 2 mins. Repeat this three times total.
