Lose your mummy tummy - Jodie Gould

Introducing an innovative new technique which will help women regain their pre-pregnancy shape and reduce back pain Ninety eight percent of women who have borne a child find themselves with a tummy which just won't go away no matter how hard they try to shift it. Called a diastasis, it happens naturally in pregnancy when the mother's outermost abdominal muscles separate to make room for her growing uterus. Lose Your Mummy Tummy introduces the 'Tupler Technique', a set of deceptively simple abdominal and breathing exercises devised by fitness instructor and registered nurse Julie Tupler, which will decrease the diastasis and result in a firmer, flatter, and stronger belly. The 'Tupier Technique' can be practiced almost anywhere and at anytime. The book includes illustrations for a 15 or a 30-minute at-home exercise routine which, if practiced regularly will ensure a tighter, flatter stomach, a smaller waistline, a reduction or elimination of back pain, the ability to safely lift your baby and heavy objects, increased energy; a better posture and the perfect preparation for your next pregnancy.;A trainer to supermodel Elle Macpherson who has written the foreword, Tupler also explains when to start exercising again and how to do it safely, how to incorporate exercise into the busiest of lifestyles and how to move correctly to avoid making diastasis worse.
