Apple Fitness+ launches new postpartum fitness program – Canadian Running Magazine

On Monday, Apple Fitness+ launched a new exercise program for new moms called “Get Back in Shape After Having a Baby.”

The new program is a series of core, strength and mindfulness exercises that are designed to help new mothers feel stronger and more energized as they take on the new demands of parenting.

This program will be led by an experienced trainer and a new mom, Bettina Joy, who has also led the Apple Fitness+ “Stay Active During Pregnancy” prenatal exercise program. Gozo will be joined by two other Apple Fitness+ moms and trainers, Marimba Gold-Watts and Jonelle Lewis.

The program begins with core training designed to help create a foundation for rebuilding core strength. The focus of this training is breathing and gentle core movements to help users reconnect with their core.

There are different exercise options throughout the workout to help each user feel more comfortable, depending on their birth experience. The program encourages users to listen to their bodies and take things at their own pace. Users also have the option of using their body weight or light dumbbells during training.

Workouts are 10 minutes long and can be done alone, together, or in a playlist with other studio workouts from the Apple Fitness+ Library.
