Postpartum Exercise- Toning the abs without doing a situp!

A great way to get muscle definition particularly in the midsection is to do kickboxing drills.  Exercise one: You can hold onto a chair or stroller and kick one leg out to the side.  Repeat on one side 20 times, then switch to your other leg.  Do 3 sets of 20 on each leg.  Exercise two: Kick with a bend in the knee out to the side (about 90 degree knee bend) while bringing your elbow of the kicking side toward your thigh.  These exercises will tone the obliques or waist.
