[I92]I Want Your Body

So you are ready for the next step in visual and aerodynamic upgrades? Well, I want to cover a few basic steps before you take the big plunge and sink a big wad of dough on a body kit that may not be all its cracked up to be. No pun intended.

First, let consider the steps of buying a body kit. First we want to determine the type of vehicle it will be going on. Not many of us are professional race care drivers, but some of us still want the performance of one. So first thing to consider is, what kind of kit do you need for your body kit buck.

First there are the standard Fiberglass body kits. Fiberglass is good because it is lightweight and should you crack, ram into, smack into, bump against any object that may cause damage, it can be repaired with some basic fiber glass know-how or a decent body shop. Also, paint is going to look the best on a fiberglass body kit. Unlike ABS, paint stays on the surface and is not absorbed into the materials of the kit. Fiberglass kits are the most widely available types of kits on the market. The cons of Fiberglass, is that it is not very durable. If you live in a mountainous area, with dirt road and such that you may frequent, the possibilities if your shiny new kit being damaged beyond repair are fairly high.

Second there are Urethane or ABS body kits. Urethane body kits are great in the fact that they are very sturdy and flexible. Cracking is fairly unlikely, unless your putting the kit on a 4x4 vehicle. Urethane kits are not as readily available as fiber glass, but can usually be find through specialty dealers. The cons of Urethane and ABS are that once they break, chip, or crack, there are very few ways of fixing them to what they once were. Unless you are really good at plastic welding, you are going to have buy a new kit. Ouch!

Third there is the ever coveted Carbon Fiber body kits. They are super light and super strong. Carbon fiber is a material that is often used in making bullet proof vest and other bullet hindering materials. Carbon fiber kits can also be painted and the finish is closest to that of fiber glass. The cons of carbon fiber is that it is super expensive and they are not widely available for many vehicles. Also, carbon fiber kits cannot be repaired easily once damaged. There are seams as well as breakage that is usually apparent once a kit has been repaired.

With the exception of those few women that amazingly get their pre-pregnancy bodies back at lightening speed, the rest of us have to fight for it. This is difficult when you are not getting the sleep you need, you have you newborn clinging to you for each and every need, and your husband needs you as well.

Something that consumes many new mothers after childbirth is the desire to get their old bodies back. Quite frankly, I can completely understand this. It is only natural that after 9 long months of carrying a child and having pregnancy wreak havoc on our hormones, waistline and other bodily functions, we might want to get our old bodies back. Don't feel bad, or guilty about wanting this, but know that patience will be required before we can squeeze back into our favorite jeans.

Don't make the same mistake that many new moms make right now. Don't think that racing to get back in shape after childbirth is a high priority, or that the body is ready to be whipped back into shape. Realize that you just gave birth, which is a fairly traumatic experience for the body. Whether you gave birth naturally or by C-section your body needs time to heal and adjust to no longer being pregnant and giving birth. So if you gave birth in the last 30 days... relax. Focus more right now on sleep and tending to your baby.

Then, after you have come out of the fog of the first 30 days, focus you efforts on being vibrant and healthy - not worrying about how many days it will be till you get your old body back. You need to be realistic in your goals. Stop looking at stick thin models and comparing yourself to them. Beating yourself up isn't going to help anyone. Getting back into shape takes time, and it will be helpful for you to know that there are numerous studies that show you can actually be fitter and stronger after child birth then you were before.

With that being said there you need to make a timeline with realistic goals for you to achieve. These goals need to include healthy eating habits as well as exercise. The long term goal is for you to feel more vibrant and alive then you ever have before. You can do this. Start small, incorporate one good eating habit at a time. Don't try to tackle all your eating problems at once, try crash dieting, or launch head first into a vigorous exercise program. This approach can only lead to injury, disappointment and frustration.

Start small and then as your body lets you know that it is ready, you can gradually start to increase the intensity of exercise. Don't be fooled into thinking that low impact activity isn't having an affect. Even a short daily walk can have a powerful impact on the body and aid its recovery. Consistency is really the key to you getting your body back and being stronger and healthier than before.

It is perfectly reasonable to expect that you can get back into shape, rebuild, and even improve on your pre-baby body. The notion that moms are doomed to a life of 'frumpy' or 'matronly' bodies and style after childbirth is now considered old fashion. But just remember - slow and steady will get you better results for your overall wellbeing than mad exercise and dieting. There are more and more mothers these days breaking the norm and working to build strong, fit, healthy bodies, which bounce back from pregnancy with ease.
