Fit Pregnancy

I am very physically active! And since I was before I got pregnant, it's best to continue jusr modifying and not so intense.
I'm 5w3d.
Any other fit mommas to be??

Re: Fit Pregnancy

  • Yeah, just don't overdo it. I ran a lot before my pregnancy but I will definitely say I've had to slow the pace down because I get winded way easier (8w6d)

  • I'm toning it down and it is definitely feeling weird not to work out as hard as I usually do. No more hot yoga for instance. I still do lap swimming 4x/wk which feels amazing.

  • Continuing hiit tabata and body pump until doc and my body say I need to tone it down.
  • I used to take spinning regularly and can't even sit in the bike now. I'm walking on the treadmill with hand weights.

  • I haven't stopped any of my workouts. I still go to Tabata, strength training and running classes. My trainer said that as long as I don't ask my body to do very difficult things that I'm not used to doing I'll be fine. I'll have to stop any ab work on my back soon but as long as my body will allow, I'll keep up the same workouts.
  • @aaroncourtney‌ I am super active too aka hyper, lol. I've had a miscarriage before so I lean toward being active with low impact options like yoga and pilates. Some great youtube channels I've found helpful on the subject are: Oh baby fitness and Parents Magazine, BeFit and PregnancyYoga.Hope this helps :)
  • I've been tending toward yoga and pilates work outs this pregnancy.  I am hoping they help prevent some of the hip issues that I had in my previous pregnancies.

  • I am a beachbody coach so I have lots of at home options from insanity to plyo. My husband and I are doing the new Insanity but I've stopped jumping. I still break a good sweat. It's been weird changing my mind set from push as hard as possible to lose weight to now-modify but stay active for a healthy baby!
  • I work out and teach classes almost every day of the week. As much as I would love to keep working out as normal, the fatigue and morning sickness are killing me. I never skip workouts but now there's zero motivation. I am praying that the 2nd trimester gives me a bit more energy because my fit lifestyle was very important to me.
  • My SO and I are currently doing T25 at home. No will continue to do it until dr says I shouldn't/or need to slow it down. Gained 30 with my first and I well after 3.5 yrs most of it hasn't gone away - hence why I was working out to lose it. This baby wasn't planned so I want to gain as little weight as possible with this one.

  • After a good workout what do you girls eat? I have a problem of being really hungry 15 after I stop swimming lol.
  • With my first, working out was the only thing that made me feel normal and not so dainty and fragile (as pregnant women tend to be treated
  • I'm 5W's. After my son, I lost over 60lbs. I will continue to do my high intensity workouts and cycle. I won't overdue it. I also have noticed getting more winded than usual. Excited to control the weight I gain though.
  • I have been drinking my normal protein drinks or having a salad after.
  • Unfortunately, my NVP (possible HG) has made working out impossible... hoping to do some yoga again in the 2nd trimester, but probably won't be able to do much more than that if this pregnancy plays out like my previous...

  • I worked out a lot myself but have been so sick since 5.5 weeks that I can hardly go to work. I'm 8.2 now.
