Last week I mentioned my love for lunges and there are so many different ways that we can lunge. One of the most important things to remember is to ensure our front knee tracks over our toes when we are lunging. You could start by having your fingers against a wall or chair to help you with your balance and stay in a static position and just bend the knees and stand back up tall. You could also then work to step forward and back up or step one leg backwards and then back up. When you are feeling confident, you can start to take your lunges off to the side or then in different directions to challenge yourself even more. There are so many fabulous options for lunges! If you would like to join some workouts that incorporate lunges, then please have a look at my online programs (link in bio).

I believe in the importance of introducing functional movement patterns after giving birth, because we don’t want to just feel strong during an exercise session, but also when we’re away from the class in our everyday lives. Lunges are a wonderful exercise to incorporate into a training program because we so often have to step on to one leg and balance, even if it just to pick up some toys or reach into a high cupboard. Practicing the movement so that we are strong and can move in a variety of different ways on to one leg and back up to standing safely, is really important. Lots of my classes online include different variations of lunges to help you become stronger. Visit my website (link in bio) for more information on my postnatal program.
Sometimes it’s nice to just go with the flow with our movements, rather than do a set exercise with a specific number of sets or repetitions. It is so important to listen to our body in the postnatal period to ensure that we feel good and don’t push ourselves to do something our body isn’t ready for. If you’re looking for some nice exercise to get the spine moving in every direction and have an overall release for your tired or tight body, try these. If you still have a diastasis, then be very gentle when doing the rotation and flexion and stop if it doesn’t feel good. You can do all of these exercises in a seated position as well. Moving like this for a few minutes every couple of hours, will make a huge difference to how your body feels. If you’re looking for more workouts, have a look at my postnatal program (link in bio).

I am so excited to launch Bec McLean Pilates Online (website link in bio). Here you can find two programs: my Postnatal Program and my on-demand Pilates subscription service. Supporting Mums in their journey to return to exercise after giving birth is a passion of mine, having suffered severe injuries from not returning safely myself. I would love to support as many women as possible on their postnatal journey, so I created this program to provide you with knowledge, functional workouts and encouragement to become active again. Please also follow my main Instagram for more general Pilates workouts and programs.
