HIIT workouts (like Insanity) during (early) pregnancy (well, and later)??

Question

Hey ladies!! So I just found out that I’m pregnant this morning! Took a urine pregnancy test this AM and had a faint positive, took a digital urine pregnancy test and it was positive!! (YAY!!) 
So now... my question is this: I’ve been doing insanity and similar workouts for the last 4.5 Years. Additionally, I have no medical problems that I know of. So, Can I continue to do my regular workouts, at least through the first trimester? Is that safe? What have you ladies experienced? Thanks in advance!! ❤️🙌

Answer

You can keep up the workouts as much as your body lets you. My doctor told me to keep my heart rate below 150...so I stopped doing T25 and switched to Hammer & Chisel. I’m now doing Core de Force modified. I’m now 22 weeks and I don’t do any jumping or ab work on my back. I’ve been loving Beachbody on Demand so I can switch my workouts as needed!

Answer

Usually you can continue the workouts you were doing before pregnancy as long as your body is used to it but always call your Dr about things like that. Drs want you to be healthy and exorcise during pregnancy but they want you to do it in a healthy way that won’t hurt your baby. You should give your Dr a call.

Answer

I did Insanity throughout quite a bit of my pregnancy. Just listen to your body and slow down/modify as necessary.

Answer

I have been doing Beachbody on demand workouts (21 day fix, 21 day fix extreme, shift shop etc) and am now almost 13 weeks pregnant and have been able to keep up with it all for the most part. Everyone is different though so talk to your doctor.

Answer

Avoid the abs ones and be careful of balance later on.
I was super duper active and was a p90x er.  Don't be discouraged if you turn into a little old lady and your activity starts consisting of brisk walks lol.
But definately consult with your doctor and watch that heart rate! They want us under 140.

Answer

You’re can continue to do what you did before.  I was crossfitting and Olympic lifting, so I just tried to dial back the intensity in the Crossfit (kept my heart rate under 150) and decided to cut back in the heavy weights.

Answer

Looks like I’m doing 21 day fix... maybe some cize 😊 I was super excited for 80 day obsession coming in January, but I’m not sure if I’ll be able to do it then! 😔
