Everything listed under: Pregnancy Exercise

One of the biggest fears for most pregnant women for post partum is THE DREADED POOCH.  I see it all the time and I remember before I had my first child and my friends were having kids.  I would see them months after and they all still looked like they were 4-5 months pregnant.

As of this post I am 16 weeks pregnant with my second!   So you can imagine..... The tiredness has exponentially increased.

Working out during pregnancy is not too different than when you are not pregnant. Of course you should decrease intensity a little, rest a little more, hydrate more, and not do certain exercises.  And that is what I want to talk about today, what exercises to stay away from.

Though pregnancy is taxing on the body, you still can be a super fit prego! All you have to do is perform some weight training workouts and eat healthy.  I know, it sounds super hard and overwhelming to you, but it really isn't.

I don't know why people think pregnant woman can't workout. Actually pregnant women SHOULD workout and it is actually beneficial for them to.  Not only does it help speed and ease labor and delivery but it will help you get back into pre-pregnancy weight much faster.

One of the best things you can do for you and your baby while pregnant is EXERCISE.  Don't believe me?  Check out what the NEWS has to say about Pregnancy Fitness & Healthy Nutrition.

Pregnancy and Exercise, something that every pregnant woman thinks about as soon as they find out they are expecting.  It's funny because sometimes, women would never start exercising if it weren't for pregnancy.  But it's ok, I won't judge you it that is you.

Pregnancy is a beautiful thing.  I know not every woman can say this, but if you feel good about yourself when you are pregnant, the chances of you feeling good and enjoying your pregnancy are much higher.  So, my dear pregnant friend, if you have not been working out, my advice is get movin' girl.

I think this is a question that most pregnant woman wonder about as soon as they find out they are pregnant.   For the most part, each doctor is different, but first consult with your doctor and get clearance to exercise and perform core exercises.  Once you have clearance, get movin' girlfriend.

Every single pregnant woman should exercise throughout her entire pregnancy.  I wonder if women understand all the benefits of exercising during pregnancy.  If they did, I think more women would exercise while pregnant.

Exercise and Pregnancy is what you should be thinking about right now if you want to reduce aches and pains, reduce swelling of ankles and feet, improve sleep, reduce the risk of gestational diabetes, improve mood and reduce labor and delivery time.  How much more motivating can it be to exercise while pregnant? I know!

Exercising while pregnant has many benefits.  Not only do you prevent EXCESS WEIGHT GAIN, but you also SPEED DELIVERY and get into PRE-PREGANCY SHAPE much faster.  There are so many great workouts for pregnancy, and I think there is a huge misconception on what you can and cannot do for exercises during pregnancy.

If pregnant women new the benefits of working out, they would workout more while pregnant.  If you want to enjoy your pregnancy, feel good, and have tons of energy, then you have to dedicate a little bit of time to your pregnancy workouts.  I promise it will be so worth it.

Everything about Pregnancy is LOVE!  And today I am going to give you a pregnancy workout you will love. I am so blessed to have LOVED being PREGNANT.

Pregnancy is such a beautiful thing.  I was so lucky to have completely and entirely love my pregnancy.  I believe a lot has to do with your mind set and embracing the whole thing.  If you do, you will have a great pregnancy and love your changing body.  And the reality is, if you feel good about yourself even though your belly is growing, your hips are widening and your nipples have turned black.........YOU WILL STILL ENJOY & LOVE YOUR PREGNANCY!  That is why it is ...

If you have been working out for at least 8 weeks prior to pregnancy, then HECK YEAH!  Your pregnancy workouts should definitely be intense, but they should also be safe and effective. I worked out my entire pregnancy until the day before I went into labor and I owe my 4 hour labor and 3 pushes to my awesome 5am pregnancy workouts!

Why isn't there a manual that tells us exactly what our Pregnancy Diet should be composed of?  I mean, of course we know we should eat "nutritious" and a "well balanced diet"........DUH! Well, what do we do during those weeks that every type of food looks and smells disgusting?

It is such a BLESSING to be PREGNANT, so congratulations! Having an AMAZING PREGNANCY has everything to do with the attitude you choose to have during these next 40 weeks of your life. If you embrace this pregnancy and everything that comes with it, you will have a truly incredible experience.
