Only exercise on her mind: Khloe Kardashian shows off her post-baby body in a new workout video
Khloe Kardashian welcomed baby True Thompson on April 12 with boyfriend Tristan Thompson and ever since then, she has been waiting to hit the gym and start working out. The 'Keeping Up With The Kardashian' star opened up about breaking a sweat at the gym on her website and expressed how good she felt.
“After I had True, I couldn’t wait to get back to the gym. I really missed it during my pregnancy. A good sweat sesh can do wonders for the mind,” she wrote. Khloe has been showing her workout videos every now and then on her social media. Even before she gave birth, the new mom had been working out despite many criticizing her for being at the gym while she was pregnant. Khloe hit back at all the haters stating that she knew what was best for her and her baby.
Meanwhile, Khloe waited to get the approval of her doctors before she went back to working out after having True. “Once I got the green light from my doctor, Coach Joe (Joel Bouraima) was on the next flight to Cleveland — no joke, LOL,” she revealed.
However, it was not an easy breeze and required a lot of determination. “On that first day back, it felt so good to sweat again. Not going to lie, it’s a struggle to get back into the groove. Mentally, I’m strong but physically, it’s just not the same. But every day, I’m one step closer, baby!” she continued.
Just a couple of weeks earlier Khloe mentioned how getting back on her usual routine was not as easy as she thought it would be. “The beginning parts of working out kind of suck because you’re pushing your body so hard, you’re so tired, and you’re trying to get back into your rhythm,” she said. “It’s much more difficult than I think you expect it to be. I’ve been working out for 11 days now, I feel really good, but tired. My body is sore because it’s re-waking itself back up."
While she spoke about her workout, she also addressed the criticism that came along with it. People advised that it is not good to get back into working out so soon after giving birth. “So I want to start doing that now and getting into my rhythm and in between feedings I want to find time to work out because that’s going to be my new normal," she said. “Just because I have a baby, doesn’t mean I have to stop doing the things that I love, and I love working out and getting my mind right.” She also added that “I’ve been craving these workouts.
