What is your post baby belly workout costing you?
Time, money, energy, your sanity….?
Maybe it is time to then turn the tables and create the expense of FAT LOSS? That is what everyone desires in the first place, right? As you lose the fat, you reveal a new, lean, toned and beautiful body.
However as you begin a post pregnancy fitness plan, it can be quite confusing, for many plans lead you to believe that the best, fastest and most satisfying results are found in “Weight Loss” – only perpetuating the very unhealthy relationship we have with the scale.
Leading us to make the choices that causes the numbers to fluctuate which only drains our mental energies as we fret over what we are doing wrong to make the scale and our bodies so uncooperative with our efforts.
Time to Try Something New
Change your focus to Fat Loss and try what DOES work when it comes to effective and efficient workouts -and stop wasting your time, money, energies and sanity on a system that is not delivering the results you so badly desire.
What A Proven Fat Loss System Looks Like:
Intense Full Body Resistance Training
Intense = Challenging
Intense = Strengthening
No lolly gagging, no reading, no chatting while working out, no hour long workout sessions.
Just simple, to the point, compound movements, performed in super set fashion. You just have 6 exercises that you perform in pairs, back to back with little to no rest.
This allows you to work the largest muscle groups in your body to the point of CHANGE – initiating the increase if lean muscle, helping you Get Stronger.
The more intense your workout, the stronger you becomethe more EXPENSIVE it is for your body – therefore your body must PAY in the form of FAT LOSS.
Muscle is essential to Fat Loss!
The more lean muscle you have, the more fat your burn, the more inches you lose, the faster you get back into your skinny jeans. Muscle is the KEY to losing Inches!!!
One of the great reasons why the Fit Yummy Mummy workouts deliver results so quickly is due to the intense nature of a Full Body Workout.
The more muscles you work, in a short period of time not only allows you to burn a significant amount of calories WHILE you are working out…..but does so l-o-n-g after your workout ends.
YEP!
You actually Get your body to work FOR you.
How much easier could the process of Fat Loss be?
Stop Making These Mistakes!
1 ~ Long Hours of Cardio
No matter how long you do cardio, for cardio does NOTHING to increase lean muscle – and in fact, the more you DO, the more you risk losing lean muscle. In FACT, your body actually begins to break muscle down in order to provide you with the fuel you need to keep going.
Just another reason why Intervals are the Ideal Solution.
2 ~ Hour Long Resistance Training Workouts
If it is taking an hour to do your workouts – you are missing the point of consolidating your workouts into full body, metabolism boosting moves as well as missing out on the intensity and challenge a true fat burning workout can provide.
First, for those of you who do know, that is you truly are working out intensely there is no way you could go much longer than 15 -20 minutes!
(dozens of repetitions, isolated movements, long rests and socializing just does not cut it)
Second, the longer you place your body in a state of stress, the more cortisol – the stress hormone – you will have pumping through your body.
STRESS is GOOD for you in Small Doses – as prescribed with the Fit Yummy Mummy short burst resistance training moves for this is what stimulates NEW muscle growth.
Hour long Stress Sessions?
Not Good and completely counterproductive to your efforts. Cortisol is known for increasing Fat Storage AND did you know cortisol also breaks down lean muscle? What a double whammy! Yet another reason why Less is More when it come to losing your post baby belly.
3 ~ Isolating One Muscle Group at a Time
Once again, this misses out on the concept of intensity. Burning out one small muscle group at a time comes nowhere close to the metabolic expense of targeting those SAME tiny muscle groups with compound movements.
This is why each and every Fit Yummy Mummy workouts contains lower body, upper body (push and pull) and core moves.
Plus, the main reason why many woman choose to isolate muscle groups is due to the horrid myth of Spot Reduction. You simply cannot burn fat off one area simply by working that muscle. The muscle does not own the fat on top of it.
Short Burst Resistance Training is the System that Works~ Get More Fat Burning Effects for your Efforts
Why would you want to do it any other way? Why are you resisting what works???
If any of the scenarios describe your current workout plan I highly encourage you to try a new system.
Time to create the expense that delivers results.

This such a great explanation of why this program works! I used to ‘workout’ 1-3 hours each day, only to maintain my overweight level! Now I exercize 15 minutes each day and I’m getting results I never dreamed were possible! It’s all a matter of knowing what to do within that 15 minutes.
Hi Holly;
My husband keeps telling me that in order to know that your work out is effective you should feel sore the next day. What do you think?

Monica- -
The way to know if your Fit Yummy Mummy workouts are effective is if you feel challenged during each workout and you are getting stronger.
Delayed onset muscle soreness does not have to be a side effect every time.
If you are feeling the intensity of the workout and see by keeping a workout log that each time you are able to do more becuase you are stronger – and with consistency – you are seeing and feeling results….THIS in total is what will let you know your FYM workouts are effective.
I’ve been wondering about this too. Some days after a workout, I am very sore in a good way. Other times, not so much. What exactly does soreness mean? Given the same workout, for instance, I might be sore one time, not the next, but I will be again the third time. I always wonder if maybe on the second workout if I’m not feeling it if it means I didn’t work out at a high enough intensity?
I started the FYM Challenge and because I am a novice, I can’t keep up with the intensity just yet, but I try to push myself as hard as I can, but just take longer and more rest breaks in between. Is this okay for now until I can increased my endurance?
Elaine,
This is a great question for us to go over during out Challenge Coaching Call #1 on Wednesday night!
Be sure to log in and post this on the call page!
I started your work out in January…became consistant in March. All I can say is that I have lost 90% of my baby fat and I am one hot mama!
You Rock Cory!
Thanks for sharing your story to help moms out there grasp the idea that THIS is the WAY to GO!!!!!!
I have also ditched the scale according to Holly’s suggestion. I got so tired of not seeing the results that I expected and hoped from other fitness/eating programs. I have committed to eating supportively and following the FYM workouts. I really enjoy the foods I am eating and feel great about my 15 minute workouts. I do not plan on weighing myself for a long time. I want to give this a chance and see my body change in different ways than just seeing what the scale has to say. How could I not look/feel different by eating whole, clean foods and putting in my more effective short workout each day?
Yes, I’ve had better results with Holly’s workouts since April than with the hour-long videos I used before. I used to dread workouts because it took such a time commitment. Now I just get it done and feel great for the next 2 days.
Holly – FYM is AMAZING! I’m not a mom yet, but I’m a VERY busy student. I make time to go to the gym everyday and with your intervals and resistance training circuit/supersets, my 45 minutes at the gym are enjoyable and effective!! My body has changed so much in the last few months, my mom and sister always comment on how they wish they had my body! Can’t wait for your next article!
Dear Holly,
Thanks A LOT for your valuable recommendations! Before starting to use your workout ‘Bikini Body Workout for Busy Moms’ I had the following parameters: 102 cm – breasts, 77 cm – waistline, 94 cm – belly and 95 cm – hips (height – 160 cm; weight – 59 kg). After using it for 6 weeks, they are: 98/72/87/92 cm (57 kg). I am happy to wear my old favourite dresses, yet I am not satisfied (neither my husband:))with the fact that my breasts started to ‘disappear’ too:( Could you recommend any exercise/s to ‘keep it in the place’?:)
