I'm 3 months after a caesarean section. The attending physician said that everything was healing well, but to wait for 3 months with the exercises. What exercises should I start with? I would like to lose 5-7 kg and reduce my stomach and improve overall fitness. My weight has returned to what it was before pregnancy, about 61 kg, and my height is 164 cm.
If there are no he alth contraindications for physical activity, three months after the caesarean section, I suggest for a beginner: in the first week, 3 trainings of 20 minutes of walking, every week extending the walking time by 5 minutes, up to 40 minutes in during one training session. In the second week, we add 1 training, which includes general development exercises involving all muscles and limbs, with an emphasis on balance exercises. In this case, it is worth using a gymnastic ball for exercise.
