Starting cardio barre while ttc?

Question

Currently TTC and trying to figure out the line between not enough and too much exercise 🥴. I am a normal weight for my height and just started taking barre classes about a week and a half ago. Regular barre 2 days a week for an hour each and cardio barre 2 days a week for an hour each. Not worried about the regular barre class, but the cardio barre class is HARD and there’s some jumping involved. I just ovulated a few days ago and don’t want this to negatively affect implantation. Again, I just started working out a few weeks ago so it’s not something I’m really used to yet. Do you think it’s okay to continue going to the cardio barre class or should I hold off on that one for a bit?

Answer

I see no issue with that. You're only working out 4 days a week, so you're giving your body time to rest. And if you want to do jumping/high-intensity workouts when pregnant, it's best to start doing them before you conceive so your body's already used to it. 
Once you find out youre pregnant, just slightly tone down the intensity, but you could continue doing it too! The rule of thumb to follow is the "talking test" meaning that you should always be able to talk when you're working out. If your unable to talk because you're catching your breath, then you need to take a break. Good luck!

Answer

You’re fine hun. Keep up your healthy habits!
