Postpartum Weight Loss- Best Exercise After Having a Baby

To Sara of Fit by Sara: What is the best exercise I should do after having my baby?

From Sara of Fit by Sara: After your doctor has given you the thumbs up to exercise (typically 4-6 weeks postpartum), I recommend starting off slow.  Walking with your baby in the stroller or baby bjorn is great exercise plus your baby will love the movement and typically fall asleep.  Work up to 40 min. of walking 3-5 X per week.  As  you get stronger you can start implementing interval training to burn more calories and reduce body fat.  For example you can do 5-10 min. power walking followed by a 2 min. jog (I highly recommend a jogging stroller for running), then repeat the sequence for a total of 40 min.-Sara Holliday
