For post-natal women returning to exercise, Preggi Bellies offers some excellent options and cater not only for your initial return to exercise but guides you through the process of regaining your fitness and body shape. Preggi Bellies post-natal classes offer realistic options for regaining your fitness and losing weight post-birth, as well as meeting the requirements of each individual woman’s fitness level and post-birth recovery rate. All instructors are trained to help their post natal attendees to progress from using the ball to standing with increased move difficulty and intensity and guiding them towards the highly successful Back To Body advanced post-natal workout program.
We encourage our post natal women to return initially to the regular Preggi Bellies classes, where the support of the medi ball is needed for the initial return to exercise and the pelvic support commonly needed for a time after childbirth. The Preggi bellies exercise program is as suitable for post-natal women as it is for Pregnant women and equally enjoyable for both.
As your body starts needing more of a challenge, and when your pelvic floor is strong, you can attempt the classes on your feet, with alternate and more advanced exercise instructions from your instructor. Many of attendees will notice, behind the myriad of pregnant ladies, groups of post-natal women lined up at the back of the class, following the post-natal instructions and – pardon the pun – having an absolute ball. Classes can be continued in this manner for as long as each individual requires. There is no rule as to how long any person must stay on the ball, or when it is time to try the classes standing. For those women unable to stand either due to injury or simply because they love the ball, they can continue to exercise and regain fitness and lose weight using a more advanced program on the ball.
