Postpartum Workout Series

Emily Romo • Feb 12, 2024

Whether you are preparing to give birth and you're thinking about recovering and bouncing back into shape or you have already given birth and want to start your fitness journey, this workout program is for you!

I have always been a fitness fanatic, but I have also dealt with my share of ups and downs where I am all about fitness one day and completely want to be lazy the next. Or I have dealt with injuries that have put me out of the gym and just sit on my behind. It's life. We need to go through those downs in order to have those ups. That is how we become accomplished and keep striving. 

I am 31 years old and recently had my first born this past summer. I had to have a c-section due to my baby not being able to turn and was breech. It's not what I planned, but all I really cared about was my baby being born safely and healthy and that is what I got. Still, recovery after that was not easy. It took me a while before I could walk comfortably without any pain. It took me even longer before I even started going to the gym, and even then I was not going often. It's not easy to recover after birth and much less a c-section.

As a personal trainer, I knew I had to come up with something consistent and with slow progression in order for my fitness to improve. That's where I created the Postpartum Workout Program! I designed this program for those momma's that want to get back in shape after giving birth, but don't know where or how to start. It is 4-months long and it definitely has a slow progression to help with recovery. After having gone through a c-section myself, I know what that recovery is like and how much one should push after. I also know how time consuming it is to have a newborn and especially if you already have other children. I may have had my first, but I also had two step daughters that my boyfriend had primarily. So with the very limited time, I created this program for you to be able to do it at a gym or at-home. The equipment used in this program is only dumbbells, bands, and maybe a mat. This allows you to be able to stay at home and get a quick workout in.

The workout program is set up into 4 phases, each lasting one month. They are also named after the different phases a baby will go through. The first phase is called the "Roll-Out" Phase. Just like a baby begins to roll on their side as they start moving more, that's what this phase is all about. You are beginning to move more and as you increase muscle strength, you will soon be rolling on your side to the get ready for the next phase.

The next phase is called the "Crawl" Phase. Once a baby gets comfortable rolling out and possibly even rolling onto their stomach, they will begin to use their muscles more to start being able to crawl. That is when they become more mobile. During this phase, you will start to be pushed a little more, but still on the precautionary side. You will begin to use dumbbells and strengthen yourself more so you can work your way to the next phase.

The third phase is called the "Walk" phase. Once your baby has learned balance and stability, and has also gained some strength, they will then begin walking. The first two phases of this program build you the base of balance, stability, and strength that you need to take on the next phase, which is walking. During this phase, you will begin to embrace your new found strength and start taking bigger steps. You'll be challenged more with an added workout day and more intense exercises. This phase will focus more on increasing strength and really picking up that endurance to prepare you for the final phase of the program.

The final phase of the program is called the "Run" phase. You have made it to the very end of the program. Once your baby has become comfortable with walking and has gained much strength, they'll begin to wander and start running. This is when you look at your baby and reminisce on where your baby started and how much they have grown and progressed. That is what will be happening during this phase. You are now beginning to run and moving on up your fitness journey. There will be another added workout day and an increase in intensity. You will be greatly challenged, but you will look back and see how far you have come.


You will be walked through every phase of the program. You will follow the program on an app on your phone that will allow you to track every exercise and much more! Every exercise will be accompanied by a tutorial video in case you are not sure how to perform it. And if you ever have any questions, you can always reach out to me via the app!
