Derived from a wrestling warm up, the Turkish Get Up is a brilliant starting point for new mums, and one Princess Mary loves.

Jacob says, ‘Start out with just your body weight (leave the dumbbells out for a bit). This is a full body movement that teaches you coordination and reconnection with your body.’

Step #2: Press the dumbbell straight up toward the ceiling with your right hand, directly above your shoulder. Once in position, keep your elbow locked, wrist straight and your eyes on the weight.

Step #3: Bend your right leg, with the inside of your foot facing the floor, as you press through your left arm and raise your shoulders off the floor. The dumbbell should move straight up a few inches.

Step #4: Once you’re balanced on your left hand and right foot, swing your left leg under your body, placing your left foot flat on the floor.

Step #5: Press through both feet to a standing position.

Step #6: Reverse the movement to lie back down. You can finish repping on one side (performing up to 10-12 reps) before repeating with the other arm, but alternating arms provides for a more challenging set.
