Exercising mommas??

Question

Any mommas that are 20 weeks+ and still exercising? How are things going for you? Can anyone tell me if they were able to keep it up until their DD in the past? 
I still run although I was at 6 miles 6 days a week pre pregnancy I can only do 2.90 miles about 3-4 days a week now 😕 I’m still lifting but only 25lbs now. 
Been thinking about incorporating yoga into my routine.

Answer

I work out everyday I don’t work. So 5x a week. I have a peloton so I do 30 min intense cardio and 30 min of strength training, I don’t have any weights bigger than 20lbs. I listen to my body focus on being smart with my lifting. I actually ran for the first time today pregnant felt funny but I was having round ligament pain all day so that’s probably why it felt funny. My dr basically told me be smart and workout .

Answer

I workout 6 days a week . Did with all 6 of my babies right up until I deliver. I do about an hour of cardio and an hour weight training just as I do when I am not pregnant. The further along I get the more slight modifications I make to feel
Comfortable.

Answer

My goal is to start moving more. Walking or yoga at least 30 minutes a day. I worked with 3 year olds during my last pregnancy and they for sure kept me active. I’ve been pretty sick this time around which is why I’ve been super inconsistent but want to get back on the horse!
There’s also prenatal exercise challenges on YouTube and for yoga specifically I really like SarahBethYoga 😊

Answer

Yoga for me and some low impact exercises. 
I miss walking and hiking but I live in a very hill-y part of town in the mountains and we have 4 ft of snow with more to come.

Answer

I’m doing Peloton rides 3 days a week as well as prenatal yoga and barre 1-2 times a week. It’s keeping me sane and I know it will help me physically when I give birth and postpartum.

Answer

Me! I Workout 75 mins a day 4 days a week and 40 mins 1-2 times a week, take one rest day. 
I do 25-35 minutes of peloton (includes intervals or HIIT class and 5 min cool down), a 30-minute obé sculpt or barre class, and a 10-minute stretch. 
Last pregnancy I worked out until the day before my CS (39+3), but cut back to only 30 minutes a day of either peloton or strength (barre, sculpt) around 34 weeks.

Answer

I've done Pilates and walking all the way through 2 pregnancies so far and this current one. The further along I am, the slower I walk but as long as I'm still moving! I modify my Pilates routine as my pregnancy progresses as well. Mostly doing things to support my changing body and prep for birthing.

Answer

I’m 20 weeks and pre-pregnancy worked out 5-6 days a week. Pregnancy sickness caught me week 6-19 so I had to cut back some on what I expected of myself. I used to run 3-5 miles (8-10 minutes each) on cardio days and I found myself doing a 14 minute mile a few weeks ago. Just one. Lol. I’m still doing weight lifting, pretty much my normal weights pre-pregnancy (minus anything core). Getting up and down off the bench has proven to be difficult now though, so I’ve been adjusting according to what feels good or bad 🤷🏼‍♀️

Answer

With my last pregnancy I worked out until 34 weeks when I was put on modified bed rest due to low fluids. This one I just wasn’t in it regularly before and was pretty sick until recently but I’m starting to move more!

Answer

I still work out 5x a week! I do a mix of 30 min workouts through Beachbody - Pilates, yoga, cardio, plyo, lower body, and upper body, all with weights. My OB said to continue exercising as if I weren’t pregnant (as long as I feel good)! 
I was weight lifting for a few months prior to getting pregnant and in the best shape of my life. Keeping up with it somewhat helps me feel like myself.
