Exercise and pregnancy: Myths and benefits
[/fusion_title][fusion_text] Many are the people that still consider exercise as “dangerous” during pregnancy, both for the pregnant woman and the baby. And yet, the opposite is true! Healthy habits during this 9-month period (including exercise) are imperative.
PERSONAL TRAINING CERTIFICATION
A pregnant woman must keep her body in shape if she wants her pregnancy period to be more pleasant and ensure an easier delivery. The benefits of exercise during pregnancy are many and important. So let’s see what it actually offers:
- Improvement in aerobic and muscular capacity
- Better recovery after childbirth
- Better psychological state during pregnancy
- Less pregnancy side effects
- Less spine problems
- Better weight control
- Better digestion, less constipation for the pregnant woman
- Increased activity in pregnancy
- Reduced abdominal relaxation
It is worth noting that the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise most days of the week.
Forms of exercise
What are the types of exercise that a pregnant woman can follow in each trimester of pregnancy?
First trimester
According to experts, a woman in the first trimester can do most of the exercises she did before she became pregnant. The exercises recommended by experts at this stage are swimming, yoga and light weights.
Second trimester
In the second trimester, all pregnant women gain weight as their fetus is developing , so it’s important that they focus on muscle strengthening. Yoga is highly recommended during this time period. However, they need to be careful when doing postures that may cause a fall, so a trainer must be there to ensure safety.
Third trimester
The body is now tighter and more compact due to the development of the fetus, so flexibility is what is required here. Yoga and Pilates are the number one pick for pregnant women, as well as strength training with a minimum load.
