Bob Jogging Stroller
How to Get in Shape Using a Bob Jogging Stroller
A really fun way of getting back into shape after pregnancy is by the use of a BOB jogging stroller because numerous fitness exercises can be used alongside the stroller and it does away with having to pay a baby sitter whilst visiting an expensive gym. The Bob fitness strides stroller is cleverly designed to be used for exercising whilst taking your baby for a stroll or jog. A fitness kit consisting of resistance bands and an exercise manual fit neatly into the BOB handlebar console and the stroller is built with a tough welded frame and sturdy fabric. Swivel wheels allow for easy wheeling in tight spots whilst the lockable feature makes the stroller safe to run with on uneven surfaces.The company BOB was set up by two young guys who loved the outdoors and wanted to be able to carry on with their love of walking, hiking and jogging and be able to take their children along.
The BOB jogging stroller was designed to go anywhere that a mountain bike could go, whether it be off road or simply bumpy sidewalks. The clever addition of a car seat adapter also meant that a very young baby could be introduced to the delights of the great outdoors.
Getting back into shape after the birth of your baby can be very difficult and quite often it is hard to become motivated, but by using a jogging stroller, not only will you be introducing your baby to the outside world but you will be getting fit at the same time.

Stroller Lunges
Using your stroller for support, you can easily do stroller lunges which is a great exercise for strengthening and slimming legs, hips and buttocks. Using your left foot first, take a large step forward. Keep your back straight and tighten abdominal muscles. Repeat the exercise with the other leg and gradually build up the repetitions on a daily basis.
Stroller Squats
Again, use the stroller for support. With your legs shoulder length apart, bend to a squatting position, keeping the back straight. Do as many repetitions as it comfortable.

If you already have a child, no problem, all of the BOB range of strollers are available with two seats which have separate controls so that baby can be lying whilst the older child is sitting upright.
