fitness Fitness Tips During Pregnancy

[ActionAce]

Staying healthy during pregnancy is a priority especially for the first timers. When I was pregnant with my first baby, I did some prenatal yoga like supporting my back with gentle stretching and I also did a lot of swimming too. They really helped me to stay active throughout. I’ve seen quite a lot of pregnant women finding it very hard to start because they don't know what exercise best fits for them.

What advice or tips would you give such people?

A pregnant woman doesn't really need to engage in hard exercises. I did a lot of walking and a little bodyweight exercises like squats when I was pregnant. But it's good to consult your doctor before starting any exercise routine.

I've seen some pregnant women who were very far along doing heavy squats. I don't know how safe it is for the newborn though. However, I haven't heard of any losses from doing so.

But it's good to consult your doctor before starting any exercise routine.

This is probably the best advice if you want to continue to lift heavy while pregnant though.

When my wife was pregnant, I used to take her for a long walk. Walking is the best form of exercise for everyone, including pregnant women.

@Harsh World When I was pregnant, I used to walk and even do other light exercises. This helped me get well and become stronger. But is very important to consult a doctor as to whether it is safe and possible to exercise during pregnancy or not.

I heard that it is okay for pregnant women to swim but I haven't tried it myself. It’s non strenuous and I think it can assist in relaxing the body because swimming is therapeutic. Some hospitals also offer prenatal yoga classes too.

Pregnant ladies should take swimming as their form of exercise because it does not strain them and it relieves stress. Prenatal yoga classes are also good, it’s useful for flexibility and preparing the body for childbirth.

I also know that swimming and prenatal yoga are indeed very effective exercise for pregnant women. Why is it good for pregnant women? Because both are helping in flexibility, relaxation and cardiovascular endurance without much stress on the body.
