I love helping busy moms lose pregnancy weight.

They are what I like to call "no-nonsense ladies" because they want to get that extra weight off them as soon as possible and will do pretty much anything you ask of them in order to get there.

They don’t complain about an exercise being too tough because there really isn’t an exercise out there that’s tougher than labor.

However, many moms have convinced themselves that in order to lose their pregnancy weight and get their body back they need to workout for long periods of time slaving away and losing precious time with their family.

Truthfully, that’s just not the case.

You can lose weight with 10-minute workouts and you’ll do it faster than if you were to slave away for hours on the treadmill, or going for long, arduous walks with your girlfriends.

Designing quick workouts to help busy moms like you get rid of that stubborn fat is a ton of fun.

Why?

Because most moms will not believe me that a 10-minute workout will help them lose pregnancy weight…until they try them.

You see, an effective 10 minute workout, designed specifically for busy moms, cuts through all the junk, myths, and fads and gets right to the best parts of a fat loss workout.

10 minute workouts cut through all the fluffy magazine workout myths and have you losing fat faster than any aerobics style class, all while toning up your trouble spots.

All 10 minute workouts should focus on full body fat loss exercises and full body fat loss workouts.

Want an example of a 10-minute workout for busy moms like you?

Warm-up for 2 minutes by doing a circuit of jumping jacks (15 reps) and bodyweight squats (10 reps)

Then move right into this 10 minute workout. Perform this workout as a circuit, moving from 1 exercise to the next without resting. Complete as many circuits as you can in 10 minutes and you’re done!

1A) Push-up (or Kneeling Push-up) – 8 reps

1B) Dumbbell Reverse Lunge – 8 reps per leg

1C) Lunge Pulse - 15 reps/leg

1D) Hip Extension – 15 reps

1E) Dumbbell Bent Over Row – 8 reps

Those 5 fat loss exercises, if done correctly, work every single muscle in your entire body, including your legs, chest, shoulders, butt, triceps (back of your arms) and abs/core, and they work them very well.

Here's another quick 10-minute workout that's just for moms (it's a video):

Moms Only Weight Loss Workout

The best part is that it only took you 10 minutes!

However, one note of caution. You have to make the workout difficult enough to elicit any sort of fat loss effect. The key to an effective 10 minute workout for busy moms is to make every moment count and to make the workout intense enough. If it’s not intense enough, you won’t get the results you’re after.
