I was working out 5-6 times a week before getting pregnant. I go to a gym that only offers classes so I'm limited in times I can attend between work and 2 other kids stuff.
Looking for advice on at-home workouts that are great for pregos--bonus if I can stream it off apple tv/youtube!

Have you tried Mommastrong.com? They have prenatal and postnatal workouts and workouts for those of us with babies that aren't babies anymore. It's $2 a month. I load on my iPad and use airplay to display on my Apple TV.

@matador84: I moved cross country right after getting my BFP and can't find a gym here I like but I was like you with frequency before. I've been super happy with local prenatal yoga classes as well as a bunch I've found on youtube. I've also been loving prenatal barre. Check out Brittany Bendall's channel. She has a bunch of good stuff. If you do strength training and have some weights at home Bodyfit by Amy has some good prenantal videos on youtube. I'm also a huge fan of fitnessblender.com. They have some prenatal stuff but a lot you can still do. I also follow a ton of fitness blogs and use their pinnable workouts. Let me know if you have more questions.

I alternated between Suzanne Bowen's Slim & Toned (barre workout) and 10 Minute Solution: Prenatal Pilates DVDs. I really loved Slim & Toned - it kept my legs in shape but was low impact so perfect for pregnancy. I believe she's come out with another prenatal workout since I was pregnant. 10 Minute Solution was more stretching than anything but it felt great. I believe all five of the workouts from that DVD are on youtube.

I loved the 10 minute prenatal pilates videos:
As I progressed in the pregnancy, I enjoyed being able to just do a quick 10-minute video or string several of them together if I felt better that day.

not specific to pregnancy, but there might be some on there, Beachbody on Demand has a TON of programs, all of which offer a modifier to make it easier if needed. And best part it's only $99 for the entire year. One purchase and done and you can stream anywhere. I love the variety (I've done 21 day Fix, Country Heat, Cize, and am doing T-25 now)

Echoing what @lulumom mentioned - I use Beach Body on Demand and have noticed a maternity workout program. I'm keeping it in mind when I get knocked up.
