WELCOME to my simple exercises beginners section. In this blog post I'm going to present you simple but very effective exercise which you can perform with your baby.
Before performing this exercise you need to perform quick dynamic warm up (light jog, shoulders rotation,..)
New mums usually struggle to find time for anything else than looking after the little angels. To find time for gym or even home workout can be a real mission.
Why not try exercising with your baby? This amazing compound exercise includes two most important movements - squats and shoulder press.
You can contact me anytime for more exercises and training ideas.
Here are the rules you need to follow:
FIRST RULE - pick up your baby, hold her/him close to your chest
SECOND RULE - stand with legs bit wider then shoulders apart
THIRD RULE - squat as deep as you can and lift baby up whiles return up from squatting
FOURTH RULE - Squeeze your gluteus all the time, keep them as active as you can
EVERYWHERE: gym, park, at home, anywhere you like.
It can be really hard to perform this exercise 100% right first time. Take it slow, pay attention to the rules above. Most common mistake is not going low enough whiles squatting, try and improve your squating technique every time you do this exercise.
