Depending on the age of your children, you are probably feeling good for getting to the end of half term and a very brief respite before Easter…
You already know being active is important for losing and shaping and especially so for health…
As a Busy Mum, you are on your feet quite a bit, but are you engaging in activity that will help you change shape enough?…
Its great that there are gadgets that measure our daily activity – it’s a great start and will help you be healthier and at least burn a few calories…
But to change shape are you engaging in activities that make big muscle groups work and that are heart healthy at least twice a week minimum?…
Once may be OK if thats all you can spare, but the effects of one session will ware off a few days later and by the time your body has adapted and then things start reversing, after a week its like starting again…
To good news is, it is possible to change shape, improve energy and decrease clothes sizes in 2-3 effective sessions per week…
Now helping Mums I know that aside from your exercise session you have a lot going on, when I take Mums through an exercise session, I know I have to find the balance right between making sure how hard they are working is enough to get results, yet saving enough energy to do everything that you pack into a day!
Sometimes just going through the motions is OK, but to progress the body has to be taken a little out of comfort zone otherwise things stay the same…
And when the body is comfortable with the exercise a lot less calories are burned, during and after…
And the gym is great if you have time to get there, but certainly not necessary, I have designed programmes for the Mums I help to use at home and a follow along videos that I know will get results, but take between 20-30 minutes.
Any equipment is great if you have it but again not necessary, but what you do is important, it needs to burn calories by using big muscle groups, be heart healthy and be right and safe for someone post natal.
What is important is being able to do it 2-3 times a week, working at a rate that will be enough to change yet leave you energy reserves for your busy day, be time effective as crucially that could mean the difference of fitting it in or not and the right exercises to help you achieve results but also be safe for a Busy Mum.
As luck would have it I have such a system, plus a nutrition system that fits in with what you are already doing and a group who all support each other with the same goals and challenges, let me know if you would like to participate in the next free trial week (usually once a month).
