Unfortunately, during pregnancy, the shape of the female body changes - excess weight appears, the muscles of the abdomen and chest stretch. All these changes remain after childbirth, bringing the woman a feeling of dissatisfaction and a decrease in self-esteem.
Instructions
Step 1
If during pregnancy you gained too many extra pounds, it is likely that the thought of a diet has visited you more than once. But do not immediately sharply limit yourself in nutrition. First, you may lose milk, and this will adversely affect the well-being and health of your child. Second, losing too much weight can lead to sagging skin. So just follow the principles of good nutrition. Eat as many fresh vegetables and fruits as possible, drink at least 2 liters of water per day, and do not eat after 6 pm. It is also worth limiting the amount of sugar, butter, mayonnaise, baked goods and sweets.
Step 2
Exercise is also very important and must accompany your diet. Thus, you can replace body fat with muscle mass, remove an ugly tummy, tighten the skin of your hands. If your labor was easy, you can start exercising as early as 6-8 weeks after your baby is born. If you had a caesarean section, you can do the exercises about 2 months later.
Step 3
Stand up straight with your feet shoulder-width apart. Take dumbbells in each hand and begin to smoothly rotate your hands forward and then back. This exercise will strengthen the muscles in your chest and arms.
Step 4
To make your belly and buttocks more attractive, stand up straight with your legs slightly apart. Now tighten your abdominal and gluteal muscles as much as possible. Hold this position for 10-15 seconds. Then you can relax and repeat the exercise again.
Step 5
Lie on a flat surface. Begin to slowly raise your legs until they are perpendicular to your body. Now also slowly lower them, being careful not to touch the floor with your heels. Hold in this position for a few seconds, and then completely lower your legs. This exercise will remove excess folds from the abdomen.
