Mom and Baby Exercise Part 2

Kiss the Baby Push-Ups

Here's an exercise that Allie really enjoys!

Place your baby underneath you while you do push-ups, kissing your baby each time you lower to the floor. 

To make this exercise harder you can:
  •  Extend one leg up in the air as you do the push-ups
    • Make sure to squeeze your gluts to work the backside
    • Bring this extended leg up to your chest after you lower your body to the ground to work more core, make sure to squeeze those absalternate legs each rep
  • Do a triceps push up
    • Keep your arms close to your body as you lower to the floor
  • Grab two heavy weights ~8-10 pounds and do a push up while holding the weights
    • Do a one arm row after each push-up to work your back
(Move your baby for this last variation, you wouldn't want to hit him/her with the weight!)


To make this exercise easier you can:
  •    Place your knees on the ground





Till Next Time!
