The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommends that pregnant women engage in a minimum of 150 minutes of moderate-intensity cardio per week. This provides benefits such as reduced back pain, decreased risk of gestational diabetes and preeclampsia, and fewer issues with constipation. Exercising after the baby is delivered is beneficial to the new mother as well, helping to boost their energy levels, aiding in the loss of “baby weight,” and strengthening the abdominal muscles.
At the same time, certain exercises and physical activities should be avoided during and directly after pregnancy. As a Prenatal & Postnatal Fitness Instructor, you can help educate and train clients in all stages of pregnancy – before, during, and after – about what is safe for them and, conversely, what should be avoided to help protect the health of both mother and baby.
