First of all, CONGRATULATIONS! I assume if you’ve taken an interest in this post then not long ago you welcomed a new little member into your family! May you enjoy a speedy recovery and your son/daughter be blessed in his/her fresh start to life.
Did you know that I actually started Tone-and-Tighten.com for someone in your EXACT same position? No joke! As a father to three very amazing children, my wife came to me after each pregnancy and essentially said “I want my pre-baby body back”. I would write her workouts, she would crush them, and people would ask her how she did it. When she told them I was writing her workout plans people would ask me for a copy; I decided it would be a lot easier if I just made them available online! Little did I know what it would become!
So, for your weekly workout plan today we’re taking the first step in getting back into your skinny jeans! Check out this collection of 10 of my favorite workouts for that mom who wants to get “toned and tight” again! Let’s get it started… before he/she wakes up!!
Disclaimer to these workouts
You HAVE to wait 6 weeks before starting any type of physical activity such as these workouts. At that point you should have a check-up with your doctor and you need to ask him if it is okay for you to start working out. There are 2 factors at play here – 1) you just pushed a watermelon through your pelvic floor. That’s amazing and traumatic all at the same time! And 2) everyone responds differently and heals at different rates. Please be safe and don’t try to jump into this before you know that it’s going to do more good than damage.

Okay – we’re good now. Permission from doc? Good. = we’re ready to go!
Below you will find 10 workouts. The best thing to do would be start light and only do 2-3 of them a week. As your body gets stronger slowly start to ramp up your workout frequency to 4 then 5. Take it slowly and listen to your body during this time. Running through these workouts 3 times total would give you 30 days of working out (10 weeks at 3 workouts/week) and you’ll be well on your way back to bikini season… because there’s a pool or beach somewhere!
