Get the kids up and ready for school, take the dog out, finish up breakfast, load the kids in the car for school, oops don’t forget to put the dog back in the house, drop the kids off…whew…ALL DONE…nope still have the littlest ones at home.  So, really, with all the multi-tasking us moms do, how are we ever suppose to get a workout in that doesn’t involve lifting Suzy on and off the potty or in and out of the sandbox?

Being a mom is the hardest job I have ever had…and I miss workouts too AND don’t always eat as healthy as I should…and GUESS WHAT…I do all this for a living!  And if that isn’t bad enough, we all know the mommy guilt all too well.

I wanted to take a moment and give you a few simple tips on how to keep that summer body in shape and fit throughout the fall, and it doesn’t take hours upon hours at the gym.

Here are a couple workouts – 10 minutes a day!  Recommended reps 15, sets 3…

Prenatal:

Workout 1: On the Ball

• Prenatal Crunches
• Shoulder Presses
• Butt drops

Workout 2: On the Mat

• Knee Pushups
• Abdominals
• Squats

Postnatal:

Workout 1: With Baby

• Pushups with baby
• Crunches with baby

Workout 2: Stairs and Baby Carrier

• Up and Down
• Squats

Workout 3: Stroller – Outside

• Walking
• Lunges behind stroller
• Pushups with stroller (locked)

So you have a little more time, and access to a gym.  For ultimate results I recommend to moms’ three days of strength training for 20-30 minutes with 3-6 days of cardio (yes, this can be pushing the stroller or walking to and from the bus stop).

Easy splits:

Chest & Triceps

• Pushups
• Seated dips
• Finish with abs

Back & Biceps

• Lat Pull-down
• Row Machine
• Arm Curl Machine

Legs & Shoulders

• Lunges – superset with overhead presses
• Wide stance squats – superset with lateral raises

Each split is a full day, finish with cardio right afterwards and you are in and out of the gym in 3 hours per week!
