Working out while pregnant ?

Question

Is it ok to keep working out? Does it just depend on each person ? I would love to keep going everyday as it makes me feel over all really good and helps lift my self esteem when I’m feeling down

Answer

It’s absolutely fine as long as you have no pregnancy contraindications. I worked out with 5 of my seven babies. It really helps your overall health to have a smart workout plan￼

Answer

I am 24 weeks and I still workout everyday as I did before.  I don’t increase the weights much for gains but rather to maintain my muscle and I listen to my body.  If it’s too much, I stop, if it’s hurts, I stop but I have been ok with keeping up most of it.  I do everything between, yoga, weights, tabata, CrossFit, barre, running (which is super hard nowadays), primal methods and the list goes on.  So far, it’s been a much easier pregnancy from my last one and I have gained 20lbs less at this same point this pregnancy apposed tot last one.  I feel much more energized and happy.  Good luck!

Answer

I did a scaled version of CrossFit until week 38 and it honestly helped me bounce back quickly after the delivery. If you’re low risk and cleared by the doctor, then you can think about continuing your workouts with suitable substitutions.

Answer

Talk to your doctor. Most of the time it’s fine to continue stuff you did before pregnancy.

Answer

As long as you did it before and don't start anything new your good 👍
Great for you and baby - I did with my first and second. 
My most recent baby I worked out up until 37 weeks and although she was overdue and I needed a sweep, the labour was 2 hours 👍

Answer
