Kettlebells

Pookie05

Has anybody done kettlebell workouts while pregnant? I haven't seen my Dr. yet but am wondering if this is generally a safe way to exercise. There is a lot of core and bending at the waist involved.

Thanks!

Check out www.crossfitmom.com it has tons of great info. I LOVE my kettlebell and use it all the time....personally I stick to movements that avoid the swinging motion since that involves so much core work. But go based on what your doc says and listen to your body. I also went down to a lower weight. Good luck!

I used kettebells while pregnant and it was great. Eventually my belly got in the way (I had a 9lb girl so there was a lot of me) but especially during the 1st and 2nd tri it was a great workout!

Like PP's, I've been using kettlebells and crossfit.com or crossfitmom.com this whole pregnancy.

My belly isn't that big so it hasn't gotten in the way for swings or anything though!
