Workout Routines?

Question

Before getting pregnant I had a pretty rigorous workout routine 5 mile runs for fun (training for a half marathon), lifting heavy weights and weighted pushups to name a few. Now I’m 9 weeks and want to be a little more cautious about the workouts I’m doing. What are some workouts you guys are doing?

Answer

Talk to your doctor, but it is generally safe to continue doing what you were doing before pregnancy. No need to stop running or stop weight lifting, unless you have a medical condition. As always listen to your body and don’t push yourself too hard. If something doesn’t feel right, stop. 
Later in pregnancy you will need to make slight modifications. For example you can’t lay flat starting about half way through your 2nd trimester. So I do inclined presses or standing presses with a cable, instead of laying on my back for chest presses.
