Orange Theory while pregnant?

Question

Is anyone doing Orange Theory Fitness during their first trimester?   I know exercise is good for you during pregnancy but I’m worried about this type of strenuous workout.   I had only been doing it for about a month before our BFP.   Thoughts?

Answer

I can’t manage heavy cardio right now.  I was getting a lot of cramps and my hr was skyrocketing into an unsafe zone.  My doctor had me slow down and told me to try picking back up around 10 weeks.  You could try and see how it makes you feel, but I was doing 9 hours of cardio a week and lifting and couldn’t continue right now.

Answer

I love OT but I stopped going once I found out I was pregnant. It’s just such an intense workout and I wasn’t in killller shape before so I decided it’d be best to stop. I’ll definitely going back once the baby is born!

Answer

I did my first Orangetheory workout today and it was intense.  I’m 6 weeks and had some cramping and nausea-slowed down and did better.  Now since being home relaxing I’m cramping still.  Think I’m gonna take it easy and not do as many classes as I was pre pregnancy.

Answer

Hey I know this post is a little old- but I was wondering the same thing. I’ve been out of OTF for 3 weeks (pneumonia), I’ve still been running this past week, ~5 miles per day. Got a very faint positive today and wanted to go back to OTF. Now I’m worried 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️
