8 exercises to do with your child in the pram

Post natal exercise

Kate Ivey has made this fantastic little video of 8 exercises to do when out walking with your child in the pram. 

If you have pelvic girdle pain swap the lunges and the walking side kicks for more squats to keep weight even between both feet.

And remember to squeeze your pelvic floor with each exercise, and relax your pelvic floor completely between each repetition.

Thanks Kate! Check out www.kateiveyfitness.co.nz for more fitness inspo.
