DONKEY KICK AND TUCK

This movement strengthens your back and glutes, helping you to support your growing baby and bump safely.

• Come into a box shape with knees under the hips and wrists under the shoulders. Bend your elbows and place your forearms on your mat.

• Inhale and kick your right leg straight back [1]. Imagine trying to touch the wall behind you with your toes.

• Exhale as bend your knee and bring it in to your chest creating a crunch on your right side [2].

• Do 10 reps on each side.

1 Try not to collapse your chest toward the mat. Engage your shoulders in order to strengthen them. Strong shoulders will help when you start to breastfeed your baby.
