Pregnancy DVDs

All of Lindsay Brin’s prenatal workouts follow the recommendations of ACOG (American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists). For instance you will not lie on your back in the 2nd and 3rd Trimester DVDs. Your body, baby and center of gravity change with each trimester and so should your workouts! You will follow an intensity scale modified at YOUR fitness level. Follow 1 of 3 moms for Beginner, Intermediate or Advanced...with moms like you in every DVD!

Cardio & Toning Workouts Include:

Toning for all muscles groups, specifically muscles needed to support a pregnancy (including optional core exercises).
Cardio to help boost endurance, relieve stress and keep weight gain healthy.
Sequence of Workout: Warm-up, Intervals of cardio and toning, cool-down, stretch, optional core exercises.

Prenatal Yoga Includes:

Beneficial poses/exercises for each specific trimester.
Between 20 and 25 minutes of lengthening exercises and calming, easy-to-follow prenatal yoga.
BONUS partner stretches.

*Modifications for common pregnancy conditions like diastasis recti and carpal tunnel on these prenatal DVDs.

Cardio & Toning workouts should be done every other day, prenatal yoga can be done everyday.

What is the importance of Trimester-Specific workouts as opposed to 1 DVD for pregnancy?

As you and your baby grow in your pregnancy it takes lower levels of work to maintain your intensity level. To follow a safe program you must adjust these levels in each stage of pregnancy.

Prenatal Yoga 3-pack

For those moms who just want the prenatal yoga. Most doctors recommend yoga throughout your pregnancy even if you have never exercised!

PostNatal Boot Camp

This is a favorite among mothers! It includes short, intense bouts of exercise (10 minutes each) to burn the maximum amount of calories. Also includes 6 core (abs/back) workouts. Studies show short, intense bouts of exercise burn more calories than one continuous workout!

You should mix and match the 10-10 minute workouts to keep your body and mind challenged. But if you don’t want to think simply use the 12-week program.

There are 3 levels to follow; beginner, intermediate and advanced. Watch Amy if you recently had a baby.

This DVD can be done everyday if the Create-a-Workout is used. The 3-minute core workouts and 10-minute workouts that contain toning should only be done on days 1, 3, and 5. The 10-minute cardio workouts can be done everyday.

Postnatal Boot Camp or Boot Camp 2? Boot Camp 2 provides progressive core workouts, meaning they get harder as you go. If you had a c-section or have diastasis recti you should use Boot Camp 2 and begin with Core Workout #1.

Boot Camp 2

Well moms couldn’t get enough of PostNatal Boot Camp! This DVD is for moms who had babies recently, and moms that had babies 20 years ago. Start your fitness program by "shocking" or "boot camping" your body into a higher fitness level.

This Boot Camp includes more 10 minute workouts for maximum fat-burning. They are different from PostNatal Boot Camp and progressively get harder. Start with the first 10 minute workout and master it. Then move to the second, third, fourth etc. You can also mix and match or do the 8-week program to get your body back!

The Core (abs/back) workouts on this DVD focus on the inner core and the Core Firing Sequence Method. If you’d really like to work your pelvic floor and slim your waistline from the inside out you must use these core workouts. They are quick...anywhere from 5-10 minute core workouts. There are 6 core workouts. In Core 1 you will do the basics, find your pelvic floor and do exercises for diastasis recti. Core 1 is a MUST for all moms to learn how to use their abs.

Did you know 90% of moms do core workouts wrong? Core 2 builds off of Core 1 and so on. By the time you master Core #6 on this Boot Camp DVD you are ready for more core challenges!

This DVD can be used everyday if the Create-a-Workout is used. Use the Core workouts & 10-minute workouts titled Toning on days 1, 3 and 5. Use the 10-minute workouts titled Cardio Only on days 2, 4 and 6.

Core Fitness for Moms

Are you ready to burn and melt away abdominal fat in Core Fitness for Moms?

If you are looking for quick ab workouts (between 3 and 10 minutes) go to Boot Camp 2 or the CFS Method. If you want to spend more time on your core, try this Core Fitness for Moms. You will do exercises for the entire body (since there is no such thing as spot reduction) while firing the core the ENTIRE workout.

You will focus on pulling up your pelvic floor and using the transverse abdominis (the deep abdominal wall). Most moms use the rectus abdominus (the 6-pack) and only build muscle, not slimming the waistline and pulling the tummy flat. Using the inner core is the only way to get rid of the “tummy bulge”.

If you enjoy Pilates and yoga you will really enjoy the Core: Pilates & yoga workout on this DVD (25 minutes). And if you enjoy more strength training you will love Core Sculpting (30 or 45 minutes).

This DVD is for days 1, 3 and 5. It contains toning and cardio. Toning should be done every other day.

Dance Jam

5 moms take off their white NFL boots for mommyhood! Join them for a fun/intense cardio workout. Easy enough for women with 2 left feet, but challenging enough to melt away fat.

And the best part—HALFTIME—really rev your metabolism and increase cardiovascular endurance with 2 minutes of our halftime show. Choose to do the 42 minutes of pure cardio or one of the Express versions at 23 and 31 minutes.

This DVD is for days 2, 4 and 6. Our DVDs are broken down so you know when to do toning and when to do cardio. Days 2, 4 and 6 are for cardio only!

Shed 5 Fast

Exactly as the title says, shed 5 pounds with the 1st workout. Then maintain or continue to lose with our 2nd workout. Both workouts are 30 minutes a piece and use the 3-3 interval method.

It will be worth your while. If you’re taking the time out of your busy day we need to make the best of it. Which is why we do interval training—you can burn the most calories doing intervals, no other workout burns more. It WILL be challenging. But your body knows the difference between challenge and pain, so listen to it.

3 minutes of toning: compound exercises focusing on the core.
3 minutes of cardio: martial arts boxing.

So not only are you packing it into 30 minutes...you’re doing compound exercises that use multiple muscle groups, including your cardiovascular system. It’s like dusting, mopping and vacuuming your house all in one machine!

It takes 21 days to make a habit. Spend 3 weeks on Interval 1 then challenge your body by doing 3 weeks in Interval 2. Interval 2 is much tougher.

This DVD is for days 1, 3 and 5. It contains cardio and toning. Toning should be done every other day.

Make sure you listen to the intro and basics. And use the Weight Loss program on the Moms Into Fitness home page.

Core Metabolic Jumpstart

First, fat makes your waistline bigger by just being fat. Because it takes up more space than muscle. So if you get rid of fat and tone your muscle—your skinny waistline wins! Just keep in mind fat does not turn into muscle, you simply lose fat by burning calories. And the more you tone your muscle, the more compact your body will be!

While you are isolating the inner core, as well as all core muscles, you are also revving your metabolism for an after workout burn. The goal is to keep your heart rate up through the 23 minutes so you burn calories while toning your core. Cause plain old crunches aren’t going to give you the calorie burn you need! And anytime you rev the heart rate (the stuff that makes you huff n puff) we get a bonus afterburn effect. So get an overall toning workout while isolating the core in 23 minutes. It’s one Lindsay's favorite express workouts!

This DVD is for days 1, 3 and 5. It contains cardio and toning. Toning should be done every other day.

CFS Method

Core Firing Sequence. Learn how to activate your inner core muscles, so you can achieve a flat stomach. This is an instructional video with 3 different core workouts, about 7 minutes each.

MUSCLES ARE VERY RESILLIENT AND CAN BOUNCE BACK. Kind of like if you were healthy before you got sick-you bounced back. Your core muscles will bounce back and redefine into a flat stomach with the CFS method. This is true for you if you were recently pregnant, going through menopause, have back pain or haven’t exercised in a long time. But the women that might find this workout the hardest are the exercise veterans. Women so used to doing crunches or high repetitions of ab work to fatigue the abs—truth is about 90% of women do crunches incorrectly and traditional ab work can make your waistline bigger. You’re going to use simple movements, but the exercises themselves will be tough since we are re-training the deep abdominal wall, also called the TA.

Your core is essentially the center of your body—more specifically your abdominal muscles and the muscles of the hips, butt, abdominals, back, and pelvic floor. Think of the bottom of your core being the pelvic floor-it’s important you understand how they work in your quest for a flat stomach.

If you’re doing any of the other MIF DVDs this should be used on days 1, 3, 5. Days 1, 3, 5 are toning days. You should never do your core everyday!

*Recommended for moms who have had diastasis recti or currently have DR (please refer to What is Diastasis Recti?)
