Most women find it hard to get their pre-pregnancy waistline back after giving birth. Your belly is an area that needs special care and getting it flat should not harm your health. Furthermore, your belly might be damaged with diastasis, which is a type of muscle weakening and deformation.
We at Bright Side believe that workouts should provide you with both health and beauty. Here are 10 exercises that will help to gently get your belly area in the perfect shape. For the floor exercises, use a mat to make yourself more comfortable.
1. Leg lifts
Leg lifts will help you build up your lower back and strengthen your abdominal muscles. Lie down on your back, arms at your side. Lift your legs, keeping them straight, about 12 inches off the ground. If that’s too hard for you from the beginning, start with lifting one leg at a time.
Do 10-15 reps and add 2-5 extra each day you work out.
2. Bicycle
Continue lying on your back. Bend your legs and raise them so that your calves are parallel to the floor. Straighten your right leg and move it slowly bending toward the floor, so that it does a circle. Continue with the left leg, acting like you are pedaling a bicycle.
Start with 5 reps and add a couple of reps each time you work out.
3.Waist crunch
Continue lying with your hands by your sides, palms down. Raise your legs, keeping them straight, at a 90º angle with the floor. Start to pull your shoulders and upper chest up slowly. Hold for a second and lie down.
If it’s too hard for you at the beginning, start with your knees bent. Start with 10 reps and add 5 each time you work out.
4.3 Reverse crunches
Raise your upper body into a crunch position. Bend your knees, keeping your feet on the floor. Slowly move your knees toward your shoulders. Stop around the waist line and slowly return your feet to the floor.
Start with 10-15 reps and add 5 each time.
5.Bicycle crunch
Bend your legs so that your calves are parallel to the floor. Bend your elbows and put your palms under the nape of your neck. Move your right knee toward your shoulder and lift your head and upper chest. Try to touch your right knee with your left elbow.
Go back to the starting position and repeat, switching the arm and leg. Keep a significant distance between the limbs if you don’t feel strong enough. Start with 10 reps, 1 repetition equals 2 elbow-knee touches.
