Working Out While Pregnant

Hi mommy! wat kinda exercises did u do pre pregnancy? its not advised to increase heartrate (HR) during pregnancy, as that will increase baby HR too. You can continue to keep fit but pls be mindful whilst doing so! Do exercises that are moderate and low in intensity; those that will allow u to maintain moderate HR & allow u to maintain conversation comfortably without being breathless... & stay away from ab crunching exercises or any body (stomach) folding movements.

I don't work out per say, but I do walk 30 minutes every day and do pregnancy yoga to strengthen core muscles, etc. From what I know, as long as you are active before pregnancy, you can maintain it, but do take note of the limitations with pregnancy. Eg, I used to do planking but now do the modified versions only.

Hi Even I was very active before pregnancy But you can always do light walking Simple sit ups But don’t over do till u are 12 weeks Once in 2nd trimister u can do anything until unless ur body supports u Always remember to listen to your body

Currently 18wks going 19wks soon I continue with Zumba and Cardio Kickboxing Gynae say ok to exercise but i did inform the instructor that I'm pregnant so she will or might modify the movement abit for you Overall should continue to be active

I used to be very active too and am now in 7-8 weeks. I'm skipping working out for now as I feel lethargic easily. But i will go for evening walk for about 35-45mins to keep myself active

light intensity should be fine, try not to jump or do too vigorous exercises
