Strength training/weights?

Question

Any strength/weight training fav workouts you have for while pregnant? I'm still first trimester, second child.

Answer

I found this workout while crushing Pinterest the other day and I quite enjoy it. I added in a few extra things to make it a bit longer/well rounded (dead lifts, bent over rows, shoulder press, side planks)

Answer

I'm doing Tracy Andersons arm toning exercises on YouTube.

Answer

As a certified personal trainer also in her first trimester, you can do pretty much do anything as long as your weights stay under 15 lbs max. Be careful not to let the weights hit your tummy & I highly recommend not to lie on your back while lifting because it can cut off blood flow to your little one. Also I have heard walking lunges are a big no no so try to stay away from those haha. I hope I helped!

Answer

I dropped my weights about 50% depending which lift and am still doing same workout as before just sets of 10 not sets of 3-5. I was strength training before so the whole don't lift over 20lbs thing to me is silly. I curl 30 now still. I did however switch to bench press machine vs barbell so not on my back. And machine fly vs free weights for same reason.

Answer

I have 10 and 15 lb kettle bells I do workouts with while watching my shows :) just don't lie on your back
