MENLO PARK, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Jan 5, 2009 -- Let's face it: pregnancy takes its toll on your body and not everyone is a celebrity with a personal trainer, chef and home gym. Patrea's new "RECHARGE IT!" fitness DVD features real moms with real bodies and real schedules. By doing the 45-minute workout three to five days a week, you can trim down and tone up all over, including those postpartum abdominals.

Available now from Razor Fitness (www.razorfitness.com), the "RECHARGE IT!" DVD ($14.95) is segmented into three, easy-to-follow 15-minute workouts created and led by Patrea, a certified trainer, athlete, and busy mom. A combination of energy-flow movements, strength training, yoga and abdominal exercises, this workout helps moms attain the fitness level they need to perform the many activities required in parenting. An added bonus, "Yoga Nap" guided meditation will help rejuvenate those who are sleep deprived and relax those who have trouble getting a good night's rest.

Whether you are pregnant, a new mom, or gave birth 15 years ago, this DVD will teach you corrective, functional abdominal exercises to tighten your belly, strengthen your core and release tightness in your hips and upper back. Patrea's new "RECHARGE IT!" DVD provides modifications for immediately postpartum women to use during the workout and includes a diastasis self test so women can determine if some of their abdominal muscles have separated due to pregnancy.

An advocate of positive body image, Patrea got the idea for the innovative "RECHARGE IT!" DVD that uses real moms of all shapes and sizes after reading some interesting research on exercise and women. The research stated that when women exercised to DVDs featuring extremely fit women they actually experienced a decrease in body confidence.

"I wanted to create a DVD that featured attainable levels of fitness for all women and especially moms. Moms need reasonable levels of fitness that can be achieved by exercising three to five times per week," says Patrea. "All of the women in this DVD are real-life moms, and the majority of women can achieve the levels of fitness and be inspired by them. Most importantly, they have improved body confidence after completing this workout."
