Movie Reviews of Postnatal Rescue
Movie Review: Easy to do, and makes a big difference. Wish I'd opened it sooner!
Summary: 5 Stars
I started this tape when my daughter was about 10 weeks old. I wish I had started at about 2 weeks after giving birth. If I had checked out the tape, I would have noticed that while it has three progressively harder routines that can be done after being cleared to work out , it also has a pseudo-hidden track - a stretching routine you can use even earlier.
I do this in my jammies, daily, but at all times of day, sometimes with spit-up on one shoulder, baby in tummy time on the floor next to me...and I love how it makes me feel strong again. All the stretching really works out those postpartum aches and pains, plus the strengthening exercise add a manageable amount of oomph, helping to bring your core back to balance again to help avoid those same aches and pains! After 8 weeks, my waist is coming back into focus, my abs aren't feeling so stretched out and my back stopped aching.
I admit, I do like workout tapes in general - the convenience of starting a workout within five minutes of deciding to work out just can't be beat for me. Especially postpartum. Something that can be done at home without much lead time or need for baby care was a must.
Also wonderful for this tape in particular: There isn't any equipment to get, you don't need to be in special clothes, you aren't doing anything that would be dangerous to do right next to baby since movements are controlled and slow (which, BTW, is still hard!).
Any improvements? I'd love to see a baby incorporated into the routine. I often play with her while I do this, lift her as a weight or to get kissed at the bottom of pushups, for example. It helps keep her entertained, which then also gives me more chance to finish the tape!
