Jessica Alba After Baby Stretch Mark Free, Fit Body
Ramona Braganza, trainer to the stars, who also pushed and pulled Jessica Alba back into leading lady shape, dishes about his secrets with the new celebrity mom and how she got rid of the flabby skin, weight and stretch marks.
Ramona Braganza says Jessica Alba:
“Trained six days a week and used a heart-rate monitor that included calorie counting. One of our goals was to see if we could burn 500 calories in a workout.”
Jessica Alba who’s 28, who was recently voted “Best Post-Baby Body” in UsMagazine.com and Gold’s Gym’s first-ever Hollywood’s Hottest Bodies Awards.
So what are the steps to a fabulous post-celebrity baby body? The key according to Jessica Alba’s trainer is to start slow and talk to your doctor like Jessica did when she first started. Alba hit the gym only a few weeks after her celebrity pregnancy but she started with only 20-minute sessions for these early months. After about 3 months, the celebrity trainer made a circuit-training regimen for the celebrity mom in order “to keep [the workout] from getting boring,” Jessica said.
The following are Jessica Alba’s exercises for a tighter, fitter, stretch marks free, post-pregnancy body:
1. 10-Minute Cardio Blast: Walk at a 2.0 incline on a treadmill for a minute or two to warm up, then add a light jog.
2. Single-Leg Lunge: While holding a 10 to 12-pound weight in each hand, put one foot on a workout bench behind you while keeping the other on the floor and lunge down. Repeat 10 to 12 reps. Switch to other leg and repeat.
3. Chest Press: Lie faceup on a bench. Holding a 10 to 12-pound weight in each hand, extend arms upwards and toward each other. Do 10 to 12 reps.
4. Tricep-dip: Stand in front of a workout bench, and place hands on bench with your legs straight out in front of you. Lower your body into a dip, supporting your body weight with your upper arms, then straighten arms to rise back up. Repeat 10 to 12 times.
5. Core work: Rest your back on an exercise ball and do 30 crunches.
Repeat the entire circuit three times. Do these series of movements three times per week.
Ah, it hits all the aesthetic points, fights flabby arms, stretch marks, etc.!
