HIIT workout?!?

Question

I have been terrified to go back to my HIIT workouts since finding out I was pregnant. I have been walking (almost) everyday. The doctor says I can go back and workout normally like before but to not get too crazy. Anyone else going through this?!

Answer

Im still pregnant but already worry about how am i.going to get my body prepped enough to not be soooo sore those first few, maybe many times.

Answer

I train hiit 5 times a week. I’m used to it, my body’s used to it. Either chose to do it and stop stressing or don’t do it and keep walking. No point in being terrified.

Answer

I’ve still been doing HIIT cardio on a bike. 30-45 minute classes. I used to seriously KILL myself during those workouts and now I probably only give about 70% and I slow down when my heart rate starts to get too high. You can do it just take it easier than you usually would.

Answer

If you were doing it before getting pregnant you shouldn't worry about doing it. It's better for you and the baby to get exercise, so if anything, I think you *should* go back to it and just listen to your body and stop if you're pushing too hard.

Answer

I did HIIT through the middle of the second trimester. I started getting a lot of Braxton Hicks at about 24 weeks so I stopped. But i was fine until that point and I might try to start up again now that I’m almost 36 weeks. Just pay attention to your body...I always know when I’m pushing myself too hard.

Answer

Been doing HIIT circuits since before I was pregnant and while I took a month off after finding out, but I got back into it! It was challenging during the first trimester when I was feeling sick and tired a lot, but it makes me feel better about myself knowing I’m staying in shape this pregnancy and will hopefully have a better recovery because of it! I’ve been able to continue running short distances too. It’s gotten a little challenging of course but I plan to stay with it. According to doctors you can keep doing what you’ve been doing prior to getting pregnant. Just be cautious not to lift weights that are too heavy and listen to your body! ❤️

Answer

You should be okay just listen to your body. The up and down heart rate may make you dizzy so you may find something else might work better if that’s the case

Answer

Just do whatever you feel comfortable with. Listen to your body and stop if you feel like you're overdoing it. Low impact stuff is great. I totally stopped going to all my classes around 3rd tri, just no energy. But my first pregnancy I was still doing spin up to 8 months.
