Lean Mommy Author Lisa Druxman Named Pre- & Postnatal Fitness Expert

During pregnancy and new mommyhood, a woman’s regular routine necessitates change – especially when it comes to fitness. Needless to say, expectant and new moms need a regular resource to whom they can pitch their most pressing pre- and postnatal exercise questions, which is why fitness expert Lisa Druxman has recently been asked to lend her LEAN MOMMY credentials to popular online parenting communities BabyCenter, The Bump and BabyFit.

Druxman, founder of Stroller Strides®, the nationwide exercise program for new moms, and author of the new book LEAN MOMMY (Center Street®), will take on the role of resident pre-and postnatal fitness expert for the three resources devoted to new motherhood.

“We are thrilled to have Lisa Druxman join our panel of experts,” said Rachel C. Von Nida, managing editor of BabyFit.com. “Her experience and passion to improve the fitness of women during and after pregnancy is perfectly aligned with BabyFit.com’s mission.”

Druxman will regularly contribute to articles, host message boards and provide advice and answers to important questions regarding fitness during and after pregnancy.

“The Bump Media, Inc. is very excited to have Lisa Druxman as part of our expert team,” said Kara Forney, CEO and Editor in Chief. “Lisa’s experience and knowledge in the field of pre-and postnatal fitness is a fantastic complement to the The Bump local resource guides, as well as on The Bump.com. Our readers will greatly benefit from her insights, tips and advice for expectant and new moms.”

Additional advice from Druxman can be accessed in her new family-friendly fitness handbook for moms, LEAN MOMMY, launched in June 2007. LEAN MOMMY is the first book to help new mothers maximize their limited free time by working out with their baby via fun and effective exercises with a stroller and front pack carrier. A just-for-mom eating plan is also provided, along with tips to help overcome common postpartum obstacles – from your body’s new discomforts to depression.

LEAN MOMMY is available in bookstores nationwide and at www.leanmommy.com.
