Working out and keeping fit doesn’t need to be mutually exclusive when you are a mum. Take a cue from these Instagram mums who share workouts that you can do with your little ones. Proceed with caution though as some of the movements require quite a bit acrobatic movement.
Sia Cooper – @diaryofafitmommyofficial
We all usually have our babies in a stroller when we bring them out so why not get some exercise in while we are at it.
Kristy Ardo – @baby_fitgym
Doing thigh exercises while breastfeeding may not look pretty, but it’s better to be burning calories than just sitting on a chair if you are looking for some time to exercise.
Randi Greene – @randilynngreene
Doing the mountain climber while playing with your kid is a good way to burn calories without compromising on building a strong bond with your little one.
Kelly Kaprowski – @totsnsquats
You get a workout pushing the kids back and forth in a basket and your little ones have lots of fun while seated inside – sounds like a win-win situation to us.
Nardia – @fitdastruggle
Carrying an extra weight around means that you will get a better workout, so why no strap your kid on even when you are doing basic workouts.
Juca Csíkos – @active_mum_life
Use your baby as a weight as you work your abs. We love how Juca’s older kids are trying their best to join in with their own baby dolls.
Nastia Ebeling – @nastia_fit
Have your infant rest on you as you work out your core.
Charity LeBlanc – @charity.grace
