A 20-minute morning routine with a dumbbell strength circuit and a stretch session, led by a prenatal and postpartum trainer.

Arielle Creager, a prenatal and postpartum trainer, leads a dumbbell strength circuit followed by a stretch session, aimed at making everyday life easier, from carrying a baby to climbing stairs. Expect dumbbell rows for posture, reverse lunges for the legs and bicycle crunches for the abs. The video runs about 21 minutes and needs only a mat and dumbbells.

Who Is It For?

Anyone who wants a short morning session that builds everyday strength and ends with a stretch, with a mat and a pair of dumbbells at home.

Who Is It Not For?

Not ideal if you have no dumbbells or want a high-intensity cardio session, since this is controlled strength work followed by stretching.

Key Benefits

Builds posture, lower-body and core strength for daily tasks, and the closing stretches help you loosen up for the day ahead.

Things to Keep in Mind

Keep your back flat during rows and your front knee steady in reverse lunges; if you are pregnant or postpartum, check with your doctor first.
