Exercise Ideas
🔶️Although you should always consult with your physical therapist before starting or resuming a postpartum workout, here are nine gentle yet effective exercises that may support your recovery during the postpartum period and beyond.

1. Walking
Getting outside can lift your mood, but indoor spaces like shopping malls or indoor tracks work too. You can walk with your baby in a stroller, or invite a friend or family member to join you. It’s a flexible and safe postpartum workout option that helps boost cardiovascular health and energy levels.

2. Swimming
Swimming offers a full-body, low-impact postpartum cardio workout that’s easy on your joints. Whether you prefer swimming laps or joining a water aerobics class, this can be a soothing and strengthening way to move your body.

3. Core Exercises


☑️Hold for 10 seconds, then relax
☑️Repeat 10 to 20 times per day, gradually increasing as you feel stronger.

1. -point kneeling. Kneel on all fours and take a deep breath. Squeeze your abs as you breathe out.

2. slides. Lie on your back with your knees bent. Engage your abs and slide one foot along the floor until your leg is straight. Return to the start and switch legs.

3. raises. From the leg slide position, raise one leg with your knee bent above your hip. Straighten the other leg. Then “cycle” your legs by alternating bent and straightened legs.

4. touches. Bend both knees above your hips, calves parallel to the floor. Lower one heel to the floor and bring it back up. Then switch legs. For a challenge, lower both heels at the same time. Keep your lower back pressed to the floor—only go as low as you can without arching.

5. extensions. Still on your back, raise your bent legs so your knees are above your hips. Extend one leg diagonally, hovering your foot just above the floor. Return and switch sides.

👉Always follow the guidance of your physiotherapist before beginning or changing any postpartum workout program.
