How I Got Back into Working Out After Pregnancy

I started going to fitness classes the day after I was cleared by my doctor- I just couldn’t wait to move my body!! I started SLOW at @fpc.nyc because I wanted to learn about what was safe to do early on (highly recommend doing so btw because even as a fitness enthusiast, I had zero clue). Your doctor most likely won’t inform you on the deets (mine didn’t)- even after you’re cleared, there’s so much you’re not ready for yet.

Below are a few recommendations to help you ease your way back into a fitness routine- whether you’re PP or recovering from an injury:

- @fpc.nyc postnatal class (babies welcome)

- @dancebody sculpt express / 101 (don’t be afraid to modify any moves you’re not comfortable doing)

- @justlikeom pilates (they also offer prenatal, which is a great beginner option) + new mama yoga club

- @newyorkpilates sculpt & Restore

- @y7studio

- @humming_puppy

- @uptownpilates pre/post natal tower

- @corepilatesnyc pre/post natal mat class

- @melissawoodhealth has online pre/ post natal workouts

I also recommend not pushing yourself to do any class/ moves you’re not ready for. I’m excited to get back to @solidcore & @sltnyc but they’re going to have to wait for now.
