Embrace Your Real

5 Myths That Need To Be Busted About Fitness During Pregnancy


Listen Later

Worried that exercising during pregnancy could harm your baby? It’s a common fear, but one that deserves a closer look. In today’s episode of Embrace Your Real, I’m debunking this widespread myth by sharing my personal journey of staying active right up until 40 weeks. Not only did regular exercise keep me physically strong, but it also boosted my mental health and contributed to a smoother labor experience.

 

I also dive into practical advice for expectant moms, whether you’re new to fitness or a seasoned pro - I talk about safe and effective workout routines, like bodyweight exercises, prenatal yoga, and Pilates, while addressing common concerns such as overheating and core safety and more!
