EXERCISING WHILE PREGNANT

PregnancyStrength TrainingResistance trainingWomen's FitnessWomen/Women's Health Issues
By Shane Mclean


 Sorry to leave you out of this one guys. Exercising while pregnant has many benefits for mother and baby. Lets stay with mum. Staying strong and fit is important because of the many changes that are taking place physically and emotionally. Also getting mum ready for a safe labour and delivery Here are 2 things girls, that you can use right away.

1. TRAIN THE BACKSIDE- W...ill all that weight pulling you forward setting you up for low back pain and poor posture her are two exercises you should do. Resistance band or machine rows the upper back and the Sumo Deadlift either with a dumbbell or a kettlebell for the weakened and stretched glutes. Google for demo's.

2. DOUBLE YOUR PULLING TO PUSHING EXERCISES- Like i mentioned above, any exercise for the upper back is great. Rows , with resistance band, machines or dumbbells. This will give you are strong back and will stop the chest muscles from becoming too tight.

Hope this helps. Have a great Monday.
