Description

Product description VHS Deborah Mackins - Getting Back .co.uk Review This complete video guide to reshaping and taking control of your body after childbirth is a realistic, effective, exercise programme in three parts. Part One can be started within days of childbirth. It begins with information and advice, followed by exercise sequences, concentrating on those areas made most vulnerable by childbirth. Pelvic floor exercises help to avoid incontinence. The programme shows the correct posture, essential if you want to avoid any unwanted injuries. The back exercises help relieve any remaining pain after labour. The last of the initial exercises are the abdominals, really necessary as they help return strength and shape to the body.Part Two of the video is a versatile and progressive exercise programme that provides long-term solutions. There are five mini workouts, and unlike Part One, should not be started until after the six-week check with the doctor. The workouts can be performed one at a time or all in one go, depending on the user's time, energy and fitness. Weight loss and nutrition are discussed in the third part of the video. It is all about losing fat, eating well and staying sane!The video explains how "short cut diets" not only don't work, but can cause problems. However, long-term fat loss takes time and intelligence. Exercise also plays a big part and can actually change a person's metabolism, as well as helping them get fit. The feature explores how to balance carbohydrates and proteins, how to and why one should avoid saturated, hydrogenated and animal fats. Essential fats that provide good protection against heart disease, and what foods they can be found in, are also discussed.In short, this video has all the information, and all the answers, a family needs to ensure all-round improvement of nutrition and health. --Lynne Unwin
