Pump It Up!

Are you feeling nostalgic for your pre-pregnancy body? Once you've recovered a bit, you may realize that you want to get in shape. Exercise is great for new moms for so many reasons -- it helps to give you more energy, better sleep, and balance out hormones so your mood is boosted. It's also a little dose of alone time -- time to be with yourself, or to spend socializing with other fitness buddies. Here are some great fitness options, all of which are located in Austin:
