@Bethan ah thank you for this! That makes sense
@Kirsty No worries! I also love spin and do it very intensely 3-4 times a week so I understand the frustration 🙈 I just try to remind myself that I’m doing it now for different reasons and although it doesn’t feel like its benefiting me as much, it will hopefully help me have a healthier pregnancy, birth, recovery ect ☺️
@Bethan nice to speak to someone else who actually enjoys it! Usually I get 'are you mad?!' 😂 I'd 100% go more if I could fit it in around work and family life. I'll have to go with that mindset too as usually I aim to beat my personal best. I could also be getting way ahead of myself as if it's anything like my previous pregnancy, as of next week I'll be sick for 11 weeks 😅 Booked on for tomorrow though whilst I do feel OK
I have always been told that spin is fine when pregnant but you should be able to hold a conversation whilst doing it. You may just need to hold back a little bit and not go as hard as you usually do. I think its something to do with getting enough oxygen in for the baby
