Baby on the Way

Ok, so you have a bay on the way, that means it's time to cut back on your P90X workouts (or whatever hard core workout you do to stay in shape.)  But, you just have that need to do something, what on what can get rid of that itch?

A friend of my had been telling me just that the other day.  She then mentioned, maybe she should do a little yoga to just do something.  Which reminded me of the Baby on the Way, buy Teigh McDonough from the Yoga Booty Ballet Series.  I pointed her to this workout, and she said she was going to order it and try it!

I just spoke to her, she loves the program.  It's perfect for her.  She aid it is not just yoga, it has a little light weight resistance work and some fun cardio moves.  She said everyone in the video is between 25 and 32 weeks pregnant themselves, so you feel comfortable doing the moves with them.  

I want to copy her email to me on this, because she does recommend I pass the word on to those mommy's to be that are looking for a good workout.

Heather-

  Just wanted to let you know that I started the Baby on the Way routine today and I love it!! I will strive to do it daily. I am 25 weeks and I was very comfortable during, but I did feel a little sore afterward as though I got a good workout too. I am so happy with it and would recommend it for all expecting Beach Bodies :) Thanks again for the recommendation!

Sincerely,

Stephanie

A Healthy You for a Healthy Baby Studies have increasingly shown the importance of a regular fitness routine during pregnancy. Not only is it good for your heart and muscles, but it can help relieve some of the unpleasant side effects of pregnancy, like morning sickness, aching back, fatigue, and constipation. Some studies have even shown that being in good shape can reduce your time in labor. It can also help with weight control, so that you can keep in shape without depriving your baby of nutrition. Yoga Booty Ballet's Teigh McDonough recently gave birth to a healthy baby boy. During her pregnancy, she used her years of fitness training and expertise to develop Baby On the Way, a workout designed specifically for expectant mothers. Using gentle, effective techniques, including yoga and stretching, Teigh helps mothers-to-be prepare their bodies and minds for the amazing experience to come. A Letter From Teigh My gift to all mothers-to-be. There is nothing that more perfectly embodies the goddess than the process of pregnancy and being a beautiful mother. With Baby On the Way, you will care for each new curve in your body. In just 30 minutes a day, you can keep your body strong, limber, and toned during your pregnancy. I will help you gently warm your muscles and lead you through a cardio and light resistance routine. I will then take you through stretches designed to ease you through your body's natural changes. Staying fit during your pregnancy is not only important to feeling good, it's beneficial for your baby's health and your swift return to your pre-pregnancy figure. Set your natural worries aside and have glorious fun as you gently dance with grace and ease—doing fluid moves that feel good with a bit of fun in the Funky Mama March and Solid Gold—and finish with focused, stress-busting meditation. Enjoy your journey into motherhood. Love your baby. Love yourself. You are blessed. Namasté WARNING: You must consult your doctor before performing this or any other workout routine.

My First Day of Yoga Booty Ballet

I love to try new and different workouts! I think the variety keeps me moving and grooving. Basically the variety keeps me coming back everyday. Today, was a day to do some stretching and yoga. I decided I would try my new workout. It just arrived at my door yesterday. What perfect timing! A new workout on a day where I have a tough time pushing play.  For some reason, yoga and stretching is no where in my list of favorite things to do.  I've got no balance and seems like I'm not flexible at all.  Also, to "release all my surroundings" is not easy after a long day.

So, I popped in the Total Body Basic, I was about to try it.  It was about 45 minutes (perfect for my first day back into yoga after an extended break) and it was the beginner tape.  (Not include the 15 minute Quick Start video to teach you the moves.)

It begins with with a few minutes of warm up.  Ok, not to bad.  I kept thinking I can do this, no problem.  This video has a mantra "Today I express strength, creativity, and joy."  Hmm, it must be true.  I am doing some yoga booty ballet, that alone sounds "creative".  

After a little warm up, you move into the Ballet section.  Ha, this is where I realize once again- I have no balance.  It's a lot of standing on one foot, while lift the other leg in different.  All while holding your arms in different ballet type positions.  Ok, so I feel it working my butt!  But, I am just tumbling and stumbling throughout the ballet.  I never no how to release my thoughts, when all I do is laugh at myself for being so coordinated!  I also really feel this working in my standing leg.  It's amazing how trying to balance yourself while doing these little leg lifts and arm sway can work so much, abs, legs, butt and even my arms are feeling it from holding them in the air!   I finally made it through all that balance stuff, watching the 2 girls make it seem so easy, yet here I was struggling.  Also, listening to the yoga music, makes it relaxing.  But, now it's time to move on.

The next segment is the cardio portion.  Here you use small weights.  It's a lot of plie, squat moves along with arm moves like bicep and tricep work.  I have to admit, I used 2 lb weights, because I exhausted my arms yesterday.  But, between the legs moves and the light weights I was really sweating!  When you do a lot of reps with light weights, you work in toning, and I must have been toning those triceps because they were burning.

Finally you get into the standard yoga moves.  The downward dog, the plank pose, the asana pose.  This is what I was waiting for.  All the stretching!  My body needed that!  I love how the stretching in yoga always flows from one move to the next.  Just easy (ok, not really- some of those moves take strength) and relaxing.

After a few minutes, its time to move on to abs.  The program comes with a little squishy ball.  I never worked abs with a squishy ball.  But, you use this and place it between your legs.  They instructors run you through a handful of moves where you squeeze the ball with your legs while doing curls.  After what seemed like a million crunches, my abs were ready to say- thank you for being done now!

Finally you go into a little cool down.  Here you run through a lot of stretching moves.  All feel wonderful after a long hard week of pushing through some tough workouts.  

The scenes change from one segment to the next, all very peaceful surroundings to help you relax.  The music is the calming yoga music with a little more upbeat tempo then I would have expected!  At the end, there was a segment of relaxing breathing.  The sayings they say and ask you to repeat to yourself really help to relax and calm you after your total body workout.

Overall I liked how it flowed from one segment to the other.  I really felt that my entire body got a light workout.  The 45 minutes flew by.  It wasn't as much "stretching" as I was hoping for.  I really wish the yoga section was a little longer.   But the fact that it included some stretching, some strength, some cardio, and ab work made it a video I'll definitely go back to.  Plus I have to come back to it if just to prove to myself- I DO HAVE BALANCE AND GRACE!
