As for safety, the consensus says not to start a new exercise routine during pregnancy, but if you've been working out and you don't have any complications, continue appropriately by listening to your body for its limitations and to your medical team. I started stretching more and just walking in the final weeks of my pregnancy since it became uncomfortable to continue weight training and i felt like the emphasis shifted from maintaining fitness to readying for birth. Listen to your body--there's no one size fits all plan! :)Kristy A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11214418778607114591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3748553995505192697.post-43556598850619698342012-08-14T10:00:40.886-07:002012-08-14T10:00:40.886-07:00Really helpful post but i wanna know is it safe fo...Really helpful post but i wanna know is it safe for a woman who is in the last month of her pregnancy??Denver Health and Fitnesshttp://www.sempersarah.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3748553995505192697.post-82597647667109933022012-07-04T09:43:05.281-07:002012-07-04T09:43:05.281-07:00A lot of women think that they won't look as g...A lot of women think that they won't look as good after pregnancy however, if you work out while you're pregnant than it's easier for you to bounce back from it and lose that baby weight.

I used to do the BeachBody workouts (www.beachbody.co.uk), but they are much too intense for "women in our condition" :)). So thank you again for these tips! K.K.

Yes, my midwife knew I was doing CrossFit and CrossFit is safe for pregnant women as long as it is modified to meet their needs. Since CrossFit is infinitely scalable, a pregnant woman and her coaches can choose safe alternatives to some exercises and reduce intensity, but she can still workout with a class. That is what makes CrossFit special--anyone can participate from grandparents, children, college athletes, soccer moms, to pregnant woman and even the handicapped. It is as intense as you make it! And I was certainly not as badass as many other mothers-to-be--I listened to my body and scaled appropriately to meet my needs. It was fun to stay fit and now the road back is a long one, but again, I can scale until I can attempt workouts as Rxed. The journey will be worth it!Kristy A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11214418778607114591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3748553995505192697.post-24351461052094314762012-04-04T07:04:25.941-07:002012-04-04T07:04:25.941-07:00What can I say other than "Wow - I am suitabl...What can I say other than "Wow - I am suitably impressed".

I would say that was my frequency too--about three days a week, but even though I LOVE lifting, I started to sub out something more mildly metabolic on heavy days. And yes, it does feel good to take a break from any obsession over weights/times/reps or how I look in lulus :)Kristy A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11214418778607114591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3748553995505192697.post-12346823960686068782011-12-30T13:25:23.829-08:002011-12-30T13:25:23.829-08:00You look amazing - healthy and happy!

At 34 weeks I'm still strength training 2x a week and Crossfitting 1x. I expect to start backing off my squat weight and/or cutting depth soon, but thus far my deadlift form has miraculously been unaffected. WODs are slow-going which I have to say is really quite enjoyable. <br /><br />Best of luck with labor, I hope it goes as smoothly as the rest of your pregnancy! Wish we lived closer together so our little bone broth and Crossfit-bred boys could meet. ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
