Sumo Squats: Feet wide and toes turned slightly outward. Make sure to keep your weight on your heels and squeeze your bum as you stand.

Mountain Climbers: The lower to the floor you are the more difficult these will be. Kristin is up on a Reebok step, but you can use your actual stairs (at any height) or a counter top… any surface that is stable.

Chest Openers: Stand tall holding a light resistance band out in front with your hands shoulder width apart and palms facing upward. Pull the hands apart – opening the chest. This is much more difficult than it looks, so make sure to keep the resistance low. This is also a great exercise to do often after the baby is born. You can expect to be curled over that bundle for the majority of the day… this chest opener can really help alleviate some imbalances.

Tip: how to fold your band so it’s easier to use

Modified Burpees: Similar to the mountain climbers, choose your level. If hopping the feet back is uncomfortable, just step them forward and back instead – getting into plank each time.
