BeFit-Mom

Getting back to your pre-pregnancy strength is a huge challenge....at least it has been for me. I go to sleep thinking tomorrow is the day that I will work on getting my body back, tomorrow I will exercise, and somehow tomorrow I end up thinking the same thing that night. Bounce Back Fast by Helene Byrne targets all of the areas of your body that are affected by pregnancy. The DVD is far from exhausting and very different from any other fitness DVD I had ever tried. It uses post natal core conditioning to whip your body back into shape. The DVD is a blend of dance, yoga, and even pilates plus it comes with a resistance band to use with your workout. It has two different work out programs and the first one is actually gentle enough to use as early as a few days after giving birth. The programs are short too (30 -35 mins) and you can get a full workout in that tiny span of time. I found Bounce Back Fast to be very effective and easy to use. The instructor does an excellent job of explaining every step right down to how you should be breathing. While the workout is complete it isn't exhausting and it surprisingly left me feeling energized & relaxed at the same time (a rare combo for me).

BeFit-Mom also offers an amazing book called Exercise After Pregnancy. I found it incredibly useful and very simple to apply to my life. I was really shocked by how quickly I felt progress. I loved the step by step photo instructions and the way you could workout at your speed. I was also interested by the very detailed explanations of each exercise. It was fascinating to know why each move worked and how to get the most out of each movement. BeFit-Mom has an extremely helpful website as well where you can find tons of links and info about ways to get fit, as well as pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding, even postpartum resources.

I like that the videos remember that we have children! So many workout videos are not targeted to mothers! Thanks for the giveaway! --Michelle, blogattoday ({at]) gmaildotcom

I love that you can do the workout in the privacy of your own home and that it targets those specific "pregnancy" areas.

I like that the programs are short (30 and 35 min.)so I can do it while my baby sleeps.

I like that I can get a good workout at home to get my pre-baby shape back without going to the gym!
