Exercising enough?

Question

How often is everyone exercising on here? I'm 21 weeks i work full time, one saturday job, and school 2 nights a week. So i have energy for maybe 2 workouts a week. The nights i have off i end up being a couch potato or sleeping super early, but I'm really trying to keep exercising.

Answer

Just try as much as you can! I hear it will greatly help in late pregnancy, labor and postpartum recovery! But if your body cant do it because you are working so much, you can only do so much! If you have a set weekly work schedule it might help to pencil in the workouts and try really hard to stick to it! I teach group fitness classes so they are penciled in 5 days a week and i have no choice, im glad because i know how hard it is to get them in while pregnant!

Answer

I'm managing 2-4 depending on how bad the morning sickness is (doing step, barre, or weights). Given that so many people struggle to do anything, I figure this is a pretty great success. Do what you can and be proud you've managed anything!
