Let’s be honest — postpartum life is unpredictable.
Sleep is broken. Time is limited. Energy is low.
So consistency doesn’t look like perfection… it looks like flexibility.
Here are gentle ways moms can stay consistent without burnout:
🌿 1. Redefine “workout”
Consistency doesn’t mean 60-minute gym sessions.
Sometimes it’s 5 minutes of breathing, gentle core work, or a walk with your baby — and that counts.
✨ Consistency doesn’t mean perfection.
It means showing up in small, realistic ways.
5 minutes > nothing
Gentle > intense
Progress > pressure
⏳ 2. Start small (really small)
Aim for 5–10 minutes, 2–3 times a week.
Small steps are sustainable. Big expectations are not.
🤍 3. Focus on healing, not bouncing back
Your body has been through a lot.
Postpartum workouts should support recovery, not punish your body.
👶 4. Attach movement to your routine
Do exercises during tummy time, nap time, or while your baby plays beside you or just go for stroller walks
🧠 5. Let go of mom guilt
Taking care of your body is not selfish.
It’s part of taking care of your family.
✨ Remember:
Consistency postpartum isn’t about doing more.
It’s about doing what’s possible — consistently.
If you’re a mom trying to move your body again, be gentle with yourself.
You’re not behind. You’re healing.
