If you exercised regularly before you got pregnant, you may find these easy. I enjoyed her strength workout and her cardio workout. Bodyfit by Amy: Amy has a huge variety of prenatal workouts for every trimester, ranging in style and difficulty.But the exercises were doable from home and a lot more athletic than your prenatal yoga class, which is exactly what I was looking for. Of course, none of these replicate a live experience. That said, there is a whole world of prenatal exercise videos on YouTube and in the first week of isolation, I researched extensively to find options that were accessible from home and actually got your heart rate up. This is all the home exercise equipment I own and it’s surprisingly effective! Unfortunately, there are very few that are designed for pregnancy and unless you are confident enough about prenatal exercise to make your own modifications, they aren’t really appropriate. Most gyms have now started to offer some sort of on-demand or digital fitness option to engage with members while they are at home. So, after three weeks of new adjustments, I’ve found some options that work and wanted to share them here for anyone else that is pregnant, self-isolating and slowly going crazy without some sort of regular exercise. With the Coronavirus pandemic requiring that gyms around the world close indefinitely, it meant I needed to find a new routine – one that I could do at home…in my third trimester. After months of researching and adjusting my approach, I finally found a routine that worked. In pregnancy, I worried about being able to maintain my fitness routine. I like the community and accountability and the fact that I would rarely push myself as hard at home as I do in the gym or in a group exercise class. They feel like an escape from the chaos of the world and give me a time to focus on doing something good for myself. Well, here’s a post I never thought I’d write.įor the record, I dislike working out at home.
