Working out...?

Question

Does anyone work out? I typically work out about 5 days a week with cardio and weight lifting. Having a really hard time being dizzy and short of breath... I don't want to over exert myself but I literally feel like I can't do anything. Anyone else??

Answer

I do workout I do the 21 day fix and Cize routines at home which include cardio and weights. I modify a lot now to try not to over do it. But also fatigue has been getting the best of me lately.

Answer

I also workout religiously, 5 days a week of mostly weight lifting and some cardio. Since I got my bfp, I decreased the amount of weights being lifted (as well as reps in some lifts), and don't go as crazy on the cardio front. Still trying to workout 4-5 times a week but it's been really tough with the fatigue and all. Oh well. I don't sweat it now (whereas before I would never miss a day at the gym).

Answer

Working out has been a struggle to say the least. I was highly active doing cardio and weightlifting 6x/week. Now I'm so out of breath from doing light weighted lunges! Not to mention the dizziness. I've been taking it slow and I try to not be so hard on myself. Hopefully this fatigue wears off a bit by the 2nd trimester.

I follow "birthfit" on Instagram and get some tips and comfort from there.

Answer

I'm 5 weeks tomorrow and do crossfit 4-5 days a week. I haven't noticed increased shortness of breath, I just take it slower. So workouts that are supposed to be for time, I just take my time and not care about my number. I was told to make sure I can say a couple sentences without gasping for air, so that's basically how I judge my exhaustion. I haven't decreased weights, I'm just trying to maintain and not increase my weights.

Answer

I workout religiously and I have been so out of breath, it's horrible. I can't do anything physical right now outside of walking and casual bike rides.

Answer

I'm dealing with the same. I also have had no energy lately and feel really bad for not working out as much as usual.

Answer

Im also doing 21 Day Fix, modifying if I need to :-)

Answer

I workout between 3 and 4 times a week and started feeling exhausted before I even got 10 minutes into my workout lately. I changed my run to a jog and I started lifting the least amount of weight I could and not look like a crazy woman pulling the weights to fast. Zero resistance equals me looking like an idiot. Lol. I also drink an extra 24 oz thing of water. So that's 48 oz over an hour. I know that looks rediculous when I write it but I'm just extremely thirsty the entire time I'm working out. I workout for an hour to hour and a half. Good luck.

Answer

I don't usually work out but I know that if you are feeling that way, you should tone it down till you don't. Then work back up to where you were slowly.  My girlfriend lifted through her whole pregnancy and she had to run slower and lift less till she got into her second tri
