What’s a Healthy Heartbeat for an Expecting Mama While Exercising?

Question

What’s a healthy heartbeat for a pregnant women in her first trimester while exercising? I’ve come across info online, but the answers have varied. Have any of your doctors given you info on this?

Answer

I read heart rate isn't as important of a factor. the rule of thumb is that you can still talk while working out. if you're breathless to the point you can't talk then you're pushing too hard

Answer

It’s safe to work out at the same level you did before you got pregnant. Look for Nancy Anderson on Instagram. She’s a fitness instructor and always posts research articles and information about exercise while pregnant. Do lots of your own research if you can! My doctor told me not to let my heart rate get about 140 and to only life 5-10 pound weights my whole pregnancy. This was laughable to me and I decided to do my own research and was able to keep up HIIT and weight lifting throughout my first pregnancy and I have a happy healthy 7 month old who scored a 9 out of 10 on his APGAR when he was born. 💪🏻💪🏻
