Remember when Dad bods were all the rage?

hahaha. Maybe not that particular Dad bod, but no hate! You do you sexy speedo man. Seriously though. We heard all about how damn hot the Dad bod was, but what about the Mom bod?! What about the sexy curves on a woman who birthed children?! The women who went through pregnancy deserve some attention because guess what...we're HOT AF! But Lord knows it's not easy keeping everything in shape. So many workout plans take a one-size-fits-all approach. We Moms are too special for such a generic plan. So I present to you my 5 favorite moves to keep those curves curvy and the tummy flat, specifically tailored to all the Moms out there!

Shout out to my trainer and nutritionist Sierra Rodriguez who created this epic program.

Part of being a Mom is always being busy. And that's why this workout is so great. It's fast. It's simple to learn (tough to do because let's be honest, easy workouts help no one). And it requires equipment and kid toys you probably have lying around the house!

Equipment

Jump rope

Basketball

Hula hoops

Step-up stool/kid's stool

Normal-sized stool or chair

Workout

Exercise 1: Jump rope for 1 minute. Optional adjustment: faster hopping, one foot hopping

Exercise 2: Alternating push-ups for 1 minute. Place one hand in the hoop and one outside it. Push up. Then walk across and switch which hand is in and which is out. Push up. Go back and forth for 1 minute. Optional adjustment: knee push-ups.

Exercise 3: Squat for 1 minute. Squat to the height of the stool. Make sure to squeeze your bum at the top.

Exercise 4: Leg extensions for 1 minute. Sit with legs off the ground, knees bent and back straight. Pass the basketball under your legs. Then hold the ball as you extend your back and legs flat out. Crunch back together and pass the ball through again. Repeat. Optional adjustment: Keep hands in a fist instead of using ball.

Exercise 5: Tricep dips for 1 minute. Place arms behind you on the chair. Reach your legs out. Dip down and return to normal height. Repeat. Optional adjustment: bring legs closer to the chair.

Stay sexy Mommies!
