Pre-Post Natal (cont’d):

Benefits of regular exercise during pregnancy include:

  • Reduced incidence of back pain
  • Boosted energy
  • Fewer problems with constipation
  • Increased muscle strength and cardiovascular condition, which can facilitate labor and delivery
  • Improved endurance, to prepare for the possibility of a longer labor
  • Improved mood states
  • Reduced postpartum recovery time
  • Relieve symptoms of morning sickness

The type of exercise for your individualized fitness program depends on your fitness level and the activities you enjoy. All training and nutrition programs are based on your lifestyle and needs.

Why, though, should you have a personal trainer or registered dietitian during pregnancy? Isn’t this the time in your life to eat for two and enjoy the euphoria of late-night chocolate sundaes?
