Exercise With Your Baby - Suggestion 15: Bench Press

The standard bench press may or may not work for you, depending on the size of your child...if you have the ability to sit at an incline, that may help:

1) Lay flat on the ground with your legs together. 

2) Lift your baby up and have them lay flat on your chest with your arms underneath their armpits. This is the Start Position. 

3) Slowly lift your baby straight up above your body until your arms are straight up, but not locked. 

4) Slowly bring your baby down towards your body until approximately one-inch away. 

5) Repeat steps 3 and 4 for a total of 10 reps. 

6) Rest for 60 seconds.  

7) Complete 3 sets.
