Anyone currently working out with twins?

Question

What are you doing? Keep me inspired! :)

Answer

I have been playing roller derby for about 3 years, so when my doctor said it was OK for me to keep skating  (very carefully, no hitting or contact with other skaters, etc) I was thrilled. Our league has an internal policy that members may not skate 18 weeks or later, and at 14 weeks I am cherishing every moment on 8 wheels. Our practices are 2-3 hours twice a week. I will be honest, I am out of breath and exhausted just from the warm up, but I am always glad I went to practice. At the end of this month I will be supplementing with more walking and modified barre and ballet classes at my gym.

Answer

I have a high risk twin pregnancy and was told that walking and yoga was all I could do. So I went from being a long distance trail runner (between 15-42km) to walking haha. I did a few races in the first 3 months then quit all together. I miss it sometimes, but I'm so exhausted all the time anyways that I wouldn't be able to do it. Kudos to the ladies that are still able to workout!

Answer

I'm almost 28 weeks with di/di boys I've been lifting my entire pregnancy. My doctor supports me too!

Answer

I'm expecting mo/di twins and was told I could only do yoga, swimming and upper body light weights. Which sucks because I'm used to heavy lifting 5 days a week.

Answer

I am! I'm only 12 weeks, and I just started showing. I'm assuming it's going to get harder now. I currently do spinning and barre.

Answer

Thanks ladies. We will see what doctor says on Tuesday but I would think more women would keep running in first trimester (IF they have the energy for it)

Answer

So pretty much none of you guys are running or jogging? Maybe I should stop running then.
Today i was helping  hubby clean out pool in this hot weather (I was drinking tons of water) and boy I thought that was more stress on my body than running!

Answer

Sorry, not me. I have been so worried that I was going to lose one that I have been taking it majorly easy. I asked my dr if it was ok and he said yes so I might start. Lol

Answer

I am 12 weeks and I have been walking and swimming

Answer

Does mowing the lawn count? 😆
I haven't been, despite good intentions . Walking and yoga on occasion.
