Anyone still working out?

Question

I started working out consistently about 2 years ago and the dr says I can keep working out. I'm 23 weeks. Anyone else still working out with weights or have your changed it up?

Answer

I am 😊 I'm doing 6 days a week of cardio and some light weights!

Answer

I did crossfit before this pregnancy, but had my carpal tunnel act up and also morning sickness for the first tri so took a break as working and chasing my toddler were about all I could handle. I'm 23 weeks now and have starting walking in the mornings, about 1.5 miles and going to pure barre 3 days a week for almost a month. It feels good to be active again.

Answer

I wish... I used to be in the gym 5 days a week minimum but I got so sick and now I'm so swollen and have such bad round ligament pain that it's not happening. I just put my 11 month old on my shoulders a few times a day and do squats so my butt doesn't start sagging! That's about all I can handle!

Answer

I ran before I got pregnant and the first trimester really threw a wrench into that. Now, I go for walks as often as I can and do yoga a couple of times a week. Other than that, I chase my toddler around 😃

Answer

I ran before preganancy & was an avid gym goer. The first trimester knocked it out of me I was so exhausted, sick, & anxious since we lost our first pregnancy at 9w. Now at 20w I'm always hungry & get tired/winded so easily I just walk a mile or 2 with my dogs. I miss being more active but I just can't find the energy after 8-9 hours on my feet at work 😓

Answer

I used to Crossfit but quit around 10 weeks when I was having some unrelated bleeding. Just didn't feel comfortable with heavy lifting at that point. I've switched to a group workout/Orange Theory-type of gym and go about 3-4 days a week. My trainer just modifies some of the movements for me so that's super helpful. I try to walk at least a mile on the days I don't go to the gym. It works for me! I found it hard a couple months ago but my energy has somewhat returned recently.

Answer

FTM. I was way to tired in my 1st trimester that I rarely went to the gym. I actually probably went like 2-3 times. :( I use to workout a lot before I met my husband. But then it went down to just enough where I was just "skinny" but not in shape. Then when I hit my 2nd trimester I noticed I was gained 6 lbs a week. I've now been going to the gym consistently 5x a week. I do cardio (fast walk, stair stepper, and elliptical) and I also do leg workouts. I feel pretty good right now.

Answer

I'm still doing spin 3-4 days/week and I try to do body pump as well 1-2 times per week when my work schedule permits. I always feel better when I work out but I can't go as hard or as fast as before and I get tired way faster.

Answer

Yep! Still crossfitting but not doing really heavy any more. Still doing plenty of overhead weights but I don't feel like it's dangerous yet. I also skip burpees, sit ups, push ups, pull ups. I just don't want my abs to separate, but this is my first so not really sure what I'm doing. If it hurts or smashes my stomach, I avoid it
