Benefits of post natal exercise classes in Sydney
There are quite a few benefits that a new mum will experience through post natal exercises. However like prenatal exercises, it is important that you consult your doctor before starting on any post natal exercise regimen. This is to ensure that the exercises you do don’t cause more of a complication than benefit during your recovery period.
Basically, the type of delivery you had gone through determines how quickly you will be able to resume your exercise routine. Usually women are advised to wait for their 6 week post-natal check up before starting on any postnatal exercise routine.

Get rid of the ‘deflated balloon’
The ‘deflated balloon’ look your stomach gets after delivery is something that you should not be worried about. This is normal; and after a few weeks of the delivery, the uterus starts contracting to how it was before the pregnancy.
Though breastfeeding helps in contracting the uterus to the normal state after delivery, it is not enough to regain your pre-pregnancy look. The best way is to do some postnatal exercises as these will speed up the recovery process, and in the process build up strength in your body to keep up with the hectic life of your newborn.
Postnatal exercise helps with stress release
The many benefits of postnatal exercise include overcoming postnatal depression called ‘baby blues’. With postnatal exercise, you tend to experience a much quicker and faster recovery time in reaching your pre-pregnancy body. So you will be able to fit into all your old clothes sooner rather than later!!
Of course, postnatal exercise gives you an increase in energy which your body and mind will needs as you cope with the rigors of being a new mum. Another benefit of postnatal exercise is that it works as a stress release program where you get to spend and focus some time on yourself.
The most important thing to remember before doing any postnatal exercise routine is to be careful of your abdominals. It is possible for your abdominals to separate during pregnancy, because of the baby’s added pressure. This condition is called diastasis recti. You have to minimize the separation so that your abs work properly before you starts doing any strenuous abdominal work.
The towel abs exercise
You can tell if you have recovered from diastasis recti by lying on your back with knees bent and then placing your fingers above your belly button. On lifting your head, neck and shoulders from the floor, you find a gap in between the abs. measure this gap in terms of fingers. If the separation is more than two fingers, then you have to do the towel abs exercise everyday to lessen the gap and create a stronger and stable spine.
To do the towel abs exercise, you have to lie on your back with knees bent and heels inline with sit bones. Then lift your head, neck and shoulders off the floor while wrapping a towel around your midsection and crossing it over the abs. exhale and draw abdominals towards the spine while pulling the towel tight to pull the abs together. This has to be repeated 10 times everyday, while you keep a watch on the separation.
You have to be patient in expecting the results of these exercises. You will take a few months or more to regain your pre-pregnancy figure; it all depends on how long you work out.
