The best workouts for building up your fitness again after giving birth
"I would advise that exercise be low to moderate impact initially and higher impact exercise is gradually reintroduced after around three months of this, if there is no pelvic floor or abdominal wall dysfunction," Holly adds.
Once you've had your six-week check up with your doctor, they can advise when you can get back into high-impact workouts like running and spinning.The current NHS guidelines recommend waiting until after your six-week postnatal check before starting up any high-impact exercise, such as running or HIIT workouts. Even then, you may need to modify your exercise depending on how your body feels after six weeks.
If you delivered via caesarean or had a more challenging labour, recovery time may be longer so it’s important to listen to your body and speak with your doctor before undertaking any movement or exercise."It’s important new mothers or birthing people really learn to listen to their bodies," says Hollie.
