It's the weekend and there's lots to do, but if you do have a few extra minutes for a quick read about easing back into fitness after having a babe, check us out on The Rebel Mama blog. We touch on optimal postpartum moves to partnering with a pelvic floor physiotherapist! If you're also wondering if I saw a Pelvic Floor PT, I did. I went to the Proactive Pelvic Health Centre and I highly recommend them if you're local to Toronto!

How many of you mamas are rolling it out? I definitely don't use my roller as much as I should to help massage out that muscle tightness (my mini plays with it more than I do) and let’s be serious, what I really needed was some major work to strengthen, lengthen and basically balance out my entire body! I had my first Fascial Stretch Therapy session this past weekend with the amazing trainer, Sarah (IG: @thestretchtherapist) and it’s changing my life - how I walk, stand, and exercise.

Proper form is everything! This girl is schooling me on her push up technique. When the boss says one more rep, I listen!

Wishing you a happy and healthy Valentine’s Day. Okay maybe gluten-free chocolate isn’t exactly on the menu, but we hope you celebrate LOVE not only today but every day of the year!! I'm sure you also had some time to satisfy your sweet tooth too!

It's the long weekend here and it's also NBA All Star maddness here in Toronto ! MOM BUN LIFE JUST GOT REAL!!! But before we chill out and keep up with all the NBA activity happening in the city, we're going to squeeze in a kettlebell workout:

Super Bowl is hereeand we're pretty excited because we made Naturopathic Doctor, Rachel Schwartzman's, raw vegan energy balls. And they are delicious! I'm sure they will be a hit over the wings and nachos during Super Bowl!

NTM 30-Day Challenge Progress: I couldn't help but share the progress of one awesome mama from the January 30-Day Challenge. Cheryl is a full-time teacher and mother to 2-year old Charlotte. I am so proud of Cheryl because in 30 days she lost 10 lbs., 4 inches off her waist and 3 inches off her hips!! AMAZING!! Plus, she trimmed a total of 5.5 inches off her thighs. The numbers are incredible, but the most important thing is that Cheryl feels healthier, happier and better about herself; she is driven to keep on going!

Hellooooo February! This is us before we're a sweaty mess! We're ready to kick off the new month with some new goals. Here's what we plan to do this evening:

If you're tired of wearing baggy sweaters that hang below the bum to hide your not-so-there derriere, then read on! No Tummy Mommy released their first squat challenge that is simple and effective ... and mommy approved!

As I speak to more and more mothers, there are common concerns that always come up including the fluffy tummy, the flat butt and the flabby back. Don’t we all wish to go back to the days when we could wear a tank without worrying about that awful “bulge under the bra”?

#MCM Mommy Crush Monday goes to the beautiful Reese Witherspoon who is an avid runner and was also on a recent cover of Women's Health Magazine. 💪🏼

It's official - No Tummy Mommy is now part of The Rebel Mama tribe as a fitness & health contributor. If you've never checked out the blog, you're missing out. This is definitely no ordinary "mom blog". 

Did you know that almost all mothers out there complain about flabby and out-of-shape arms?! You're not alone because this is an area of concern for many ... especially us moms. Despite lifting and lugging a diaper bag, a toddler and loads of groceries on the daily, we still want to tighten and tone our arms. Those tasks alone are a pretty decent arm workout, but if you want to get serious about shaping those arms of yours here are a few simple exercises you can try all in the comfort of your own home!

If getting fit or improving your health is on your "resolution" list this year, you're not alone. More than 80% of people feel the same way every year. But how do we keep our resolutions real ... this is how:

We're still managing to get our holiday workouts in when we can, but we're also enjoying the traditional festivities. Hope everyone is having a happy and healthy holiday season so far! Drink lots of water and take it easy on the eggnog, mama! And if you are going to over-indulge in the eggnog, try this healthier version:

‘Tis the season when gingerbread and eggnog become more tempting than ever! Not to mention, hovering over the cheese platter at holiday parties often has you wishing you wore elastic-waist pants and not your super tight skinny jeans.

Here are three ways to get in THE ZONE:

#MCM Mommy Crush Monday goes to Sheryl Sandberg, who is Chief Operating Officer of Facebook and a mother of 2!

As moms, we need effecient, but effective workouts. A lot of us don't have time (especially on the weekends) to get into the gym or to make that bootcamp or yoga class. So here are three  "Easy Like Sunday Morning" kettlebell circuits that you can do in 15 minutes and feel great about! Psst ... if you don't have a kettlebell, you can get them at Winners or Walmart for under $15. Start with an 8-10 lbs. kettlebell and perfect your form before going heavier!

#MCM Mommy Crush Monday goes to 45-year old Giada De Laurentiis who is a chef, author, tv personality, but most importantly she is a mother! With all the cooking and eating she does on the daily, she stays strong and slim by practicing yoga 5 days a week. Plus she says she eats a bit of everything and not a lot of anything!
