César García Urbano Taylor: This Mom And Baby Workout Will Get You Back In Shape After Pregnancy

So you recently had a baby and you’ve been cleared to exercise again. Yay!

But you can’t just jump into an intense workout schedule right away. Your body’s been through a lot over the past year or so, and you may quickly realize you’ve gotten a bit soft, weak and easily winded. That’s not an insult–it’s just what the marathon of crazy hormones, sleep deprivation and general experience of growing a life within your body will do to you (not to mention the exhausting baby stage you’re going through right now).

It’s time to get back to feeling healthy and active again, but unless you have an always-at-the-ready babysitter handy, it’s going to be hard to make it to the gym or go out for runs on the regular. Don’t worry–you can get started strong on your postpartum fitness journey with this workout video you can do at home with your baby.

Follow along with effective bodyweight moves to build strength, boost metabolism and tone your whole body. Start by doing it three times per week and you’ll be feeling fit and strong in no time (and your little one will enjoy it, too)!

Living in Southern California allows for year-round sunshine and warm temperatures, which means you can find a great race to run any time of year. I had a chance to run the Redondo Beach Super Bowl 10K earlier this month–and it was so fun! Whether you are a SoCal native or want to get away for a weekend race-cation next February, the below list provides a perfect summation for why you will love this race. 1. It’s on Super Bowl Sunday! What better way to earn your beer, chips and wings than to race before the big game? I loved the race atmosphere, which included fun music playing, an enthusiastic announcer keeping the crowd informed and a happy crowd of runners soaking up cool, sunny breezes. 2. Kind and efficient volunteers are there to help.
