Are you pregnant and want to keep fit? What can you do? It seems that when you are pregnant everything has limits, but there are many different ways that you can keep or get fit during pregnancy.
In this article I will show you some pregnancy training guidelines that you should know before starting your routine:
The benefits of physical activity are many, especially during pregnancy when the body changes noticeably. And it is at this stage that the exercises will act as physical and emotional support, giving the pregnant woman greater well-being.
Acquiring a good posture, recovering energy, not gaining more weight than indicated and resting better, are some of the many benefits that physical activity provides.
During pregnancy, accompanying the evolution of the body with gymnastics is also essential to avoid muscle pain as well as to work the pelvic floor, very favorable activity for pregnancy and postpartum.
For those mothers who want to add exercises to those who perform in the classes or for those who can not go to a specific class and want to use free time for physical activity, there are some exercises that can be done at home (if there is no medical contraindication) during the three trimesters of pregnancy and that are highly recommended and easy to do:
