AIM+e plus a Melody due 02/20/10 :
I’ve found a lot of good yoga videos online for pregnancy workout, but I really want something that gets me sweating. I’ve been overindulging for the past couple of days so I really want to get a good workout. Anyone know of any good exercise routines while pregnant? Im only 8 weeks so not too far along yet, but I still want it to be safe. Thanks. Also if you know any really good ones on youtube, that would be best

stretching, pregnancy yoga, and walk walk walk!
I bought one called Fit Mama with Leisa heart. It was great before I was told I couldn’t exercise anymore with my twins!
Walking up hills and stairs (like at a football stadium) would be good. You do not want to do any weight lifting over your head, but if you have been working out a little before you got pregnant, you can do some light lifting of dumbbells up to your chin level. MOST IMPORTANT; call your doctor and ask him/her what their opinion is about the types of exercise you can safely do!
Get some 5 lb weights and stretch. You shouldn’t jog if you hadn’t jogged before you were pregnant. I got one of those big Exercise balls which did wonders both with keeping a normal shape and when it came to back pain and so on. you could ride a exercise bike. then you’re sitting and working up a sweat with no strain to your stomache, or back
I did a step class until I was about 6months along. I just modified it so I wasn’t bouncing too much. When the instructor told us to dig in or go faster, I just kept at my own pace and still got a good work out. The weight came off REALLY easy after giving birth. Good luck!
