Mommy & Baby Stroller Workout

Let's face it. Sometimes as a mom, you tend to stay SUPER busy that it seems like a chore to fit fitness into your daily schedule. Here is a great little workout that I have created using you, your baby, and a jogging stroller. Who says you can't get fit AND have fun while doing it? 1. Stroller Leg Ups (3 sets, 15 reps)

1. Laying on a mat on your back, place your hands on the foot rest of your stroller and grasp the sides firmly. As always make sure your stroller is on LOCK.
2. Straighten your legs out and slowly lift both legs upward towards the ceiling in a 90 degree angle. You can go further if your flexibility permits.
3. Hold for a second and bring back downward. This is one rep.

2. Stroller Back Kicks (3 sets, 10 reps)

1. Stand behind your stroller with both hands on the handles.
2. Lean forward and kick one leg behind you in a swift motion./li>
3. Bring the leg back to standing position.
4. Alternate and repeat.

3. Stroller Oblique Crunches (3 sets, 12 reps)

1. Standing with the stroller at your side, place one hand on the handle and the other behind your head or out towards your side.
2. Lift your leg upwards and touch your knee to your elbow in a "crunching" motion. Return back to standing position.
3. Repeat and alternate sides.

4. Stroller Side Leg Lifts (3 sets, 15 reps)

1. Standing with the stroller at your side, grasp the handle firmly.
2. Put your hand on your hip and slowly raise one leg out towards the side.
3. Pause for a second and bring back down.
4. Repeat and alternate sides.

5. Stroller Leg Scissors (3 sets, 15 reps)

1. Lay on your back, and support your lower body with your elbows.
2. Lift both of your legs up to the sky, supporting your weight on your arms.
3. Slowly, open your legs in a scissor-fashion, and close them. I love playing Peek-a-Boo with my son during this move.
4. Repeat.
