Towards the end I'd go to the pool and walk in the water, do squats &amp; plies, etc. Pool-time helped reduce swelling.</p> <p>I haven't exercised as much post pregnancy except for some yoga &amp; baby wearing. Lately I've been trying to do the Erin O'Brien Postnatal Fitness Fix. I also have the Pre-natal DVD, but I think I got through about 15 minutes of it while pregnant before I sat down on the couch to watch the rest of the DVD! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preduringpost-pregnancy-workouts#post-11420 Tue, 08 Nov 2011 09:55:47 +0000 winniebee 11420@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I worked out 5 x/wk pre-TTC and while TTC - mostly running and Jillian Michael's workouts. I thought I would continue running religiously during pregnancy. I continued to run up until 9 weeks pregnant, but haven't run the past 3 weeks. I have been super busy at work and pretty tired. I still get to the gym 3-4 x/wk but usually do the elliptical. I hope to start running again and do plan to continue to workout throughout my pregnancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preduringpost-pregnancy-workouts#post-11347 Tue, 08 Nov 2011 07:38:56 +0000 loveisstrange 11347@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been doing yoga, both regular and prenatal! I never did it a lot before but I am really enjoying it. I can definitely see the benefits. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preduringpost-pregnancy-workouts#post-11345 Tue, 08 Nov 2011 07:32:00 +0000 hreichard 11345@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>While TTC i did zumba. I did zumba up until the 5th month of my pregnancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preduringpost-pregnancy-workouts#post-11274 Mon, 07 Nov 2011 22:12:19 +0000 Liesal 11274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Good for you! While TTC, I tried to work out, but wasn't really dedicated to it. Now that I'm pregnant, I really want to be healthy to make this easier for me and baby. So now I'm really trying to walk as much as I can and I'm doing prenatal yoga at least once a week. I'm also trying to do some freestanding squats and push-ups to beef up a bit.</p> <p>Here's the yoga I'm doing. Just did the 2nd trimester, and boy it was a work out! Lots of squats and lunges.<br /> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002L35QCQ/ref=oh_o01_s00_i00_details" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002L35QCQ/ref=oh_o01_s00_i00_details</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/preduringpost-pregnancy-workouts#post-11272 Mon, 07 Nov 2011 22:03:00 +0000 mrsjyw 11272@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just ran a mile without stopping. It took 12 minutes, but I still feel accomplished! :) I'm not the athletic type, but as we are starting our TTC journey, I am trying to make it a habit to workout 3x a week. Running when I can and incorporating workout videos when I feel up for a lil Jillian.</p> <p>From experience, how did your workout regiment change pre-during-post pregnancy? </p> <p>Are there any pregnancy-friendly workout videos/routines you'd recommend? </p>
