First check with a REAL honest to goodness Doctor to determine if you are clear to exercise this region.\nThen go for the same great ab exercise that everyone else does - leg lifts, crunches (there are about 6 kinds), etc.\n\nBut, and this is a big butt (heh), be sure to compliment with good back exercises. If you develop the front without compensatory back exercises, then your body will suffer. Your overdeveloped front will draw your back out of alignment and you will look wrong and feel bad.\n\nSo concentrate on the front but compliment with overall body toning. Post C-section I'd recommend yoga (which is pretty much systematic stretches and toning) and/or swimming and stretching (if you don't go for the yoga).

Im a brown belt in judo and I got one for you that you will never trade for another!\n1.lay on your back infront of your tv with a flat pillow under your head.\n2. bend your knees and lift your knees towards your chin for the duration of 1 commercial (30 seconds) \n3. next commercial, plant your feet on the ground while lying there and thrust your hips in the air tightening your bottom.\n4. repeat step 2 and 3 over and over during commercials for as long as you can and within 2 weeks you will see a sexy  difference.\nThis is to slim down your jeans size as it works out the pudge below the belly button.  and flattens and lifts the bedunkadunk!

A real easy way to slim them down is to lift up onto the balls of your feet a bunch of times.  Like your tippie toeing in rapid succession.  It's easy at first but after doing it about ten times you should start to feel a burn.  We do this in my karate class and it's surprisingly effective.  It's also good because you can do it almost anywhere (probably not in public though) :)

Arm area\nTry the One-Arm Row! \n\nStand with your feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and with a slight bend in your knees. Hold a dumbbell in your right hand. Take a step forward with your left foot, bend your left knee, and lean forward from your waist about 45 degrees. Place your left hand on your left thigh to support your back. Extend your right arm down toward the floor. \n\nKeep your abs tight and back flat as you exhale and pull the weight up toward your armpit, as if you were tugging on the starter to a lawn mower. Inhale and lower. \n\nTo pinpoint the correct back muscle, retract your shoulder blades as you keep your elbow close to your body throughout the movement. You should feel the inside of your upper arm brush slightly against your ribs as you raise and lower the weight. \n\nIf you experience back discomfort, lean against a chair to release any pressure from your lower back. \n\nStand with your left palm against the seat of the chair, with your left leg forward and right leg back. Hold a weight in your right hand. Keep your abs tight and back flat as you exhale and pull the weight up toward your armpit, as if you were tugging on the starter to a lawn mower. Inhale and lower\nhttp://www.deniseaustin.com/exercises/arm_exercises.asp?source=GOTO&KEYWORD=how+to+lose+arm+fat&OVRAW=lose%20weight%20in%20arm%20and%20waist&OVKEY=how%20to%20lose%20arm%20fat&OVMTC=advanced\n\n As part of your routine activities: \n-Walk, wheel, or bike ride more, drive less.\n-Walk up stairs instead of taking an elevator.\n-Get off the bus a few stops early and walk or wheel the remaining distance.\n-Push a stroller.\n-Clean the house.\n-Do exercises or pedal a stationary bike while watching television.\n-Play actively with children.\n-Take a brisk 10-minute walk or wheel in the morning, at lunch, and after dinner. \n \n As part of your exercise or recreational routine: \n-Walk, wheel, or jog.\n-Bicycle or use an arm pedal bicycle.\n-Swim or do water aerobics.\n-Play racket or wheelchair sports.\n-Golf (pull cart or carry clubs).\n-Canoe.\n-Cross-country ski.\n-Play basketball.\n-Dance\n-Take part in an exercise program at work, home, school, or gym.

Try this variation of a sit up.. You do your curl up and then hold it for 12 seconds.. Do that 30 times with 3 reps and you will feel the difference!

ever done a back bend? standing on the floor and then leaning back till your hands touch the ground? after you get good at that.  try a back walkover.  you know, its the same thing as a back bend except you bring you legs over you head so your standing up.  after that, do a back walkover with a little jump in the middle until you have a back handspring.  wants that coverd.  try and do a back hand spring with only one hand.  then, do it with no hands.  yes, its very hard.  i've only acomplished the back bend and am working on the back walkover. but with a little more practice, i might get better.

Your in luck, cause the exposed skin area thats in style this year is BACKS.  So whip out your low in the back top, pair it with a cute dark colored mini, some black tights/leggings and some over the knee boots (also very hot this season).  It should be low enough on the teachers radar at school, but sizzling enough to catch your guys eye

Lay on your left side. Now press yourself up onto your left elbow keeping the elbow in line with the shoulder. Place your right hand by your right ear. Widen your feet so your right leg is a little bit infront of you left leg. Pick up your hips keeping the body is a straight line. Exhale as you twist the right elbow towards the floor while sucking the belly button into the spine. Inhale and untwist. Repeat 12-15 times and switch sides.

Smile :) Be loud :0 And sharp. Practice in front of a mirror so you can make sure your motions are right and sharp. Slopy motion will make it so you won't make it. Perform any tricks you can like jumps, handsprings and cartweels.\n\nGood luck

Lunges do the trick.  Also if you've watched some figure skating, there this trick called a spiral... this is when you are standing up right and then what you do is lift one leg behind you with the free leg straight and tense as far as you can go.  Once you're reached your limit, start arching your back so the leg gets higher up.  As you raise your leg past your hips, you'll need to start leaning forward a little bit opening your hips ever slightly.  You can start to feel the burn and your glutes tightening up.  I have a picture I can email to you but dont know what email address to send it too as you'd be the first one I am actually answering the question.  I hope that helps!

lying down on mats for all of these\n-roll up: sit w/ knees bent w/ hands behind them 4 support. lean back 45 degrees. contract abs to sit upright but DONT use the help of your arms\n-twisting crunch: hands behind head, legs 6 in. off floor, bring left elbow to right knee while keeping left leg straight. Then move right elbow to left knee & keep right leg straight. do both 20 times while holding for 2 sec. each time\n-put folded towel btw knees. lift leg 45 degrees off floor. Raise head and pulse arms up and down by hips. inhale as you do 5 arm pulses (up & down = 1) and exhale as you do another 5 \nrepeat 8 times.

Try doing crunches from a sitting position, in a straight backed chair. You get the same results, with much less discomfort to your back. You just need to pull your knees up toward you and let them down slowly. It works wonders!

Okay...backhandspring. First off when your standing on the floor you always want to bend your knees just a bit, thats what i do. Stick your arms out. Then swing your arms back then up and arch your back. If you jump high enough your legs will be able to get over your head, and always keep your arms straight don't bend them. Im bad at explaining sorry... Good luck though for level 4!
