Pregnancy safe workouts/gym classes

Before I found out I was pregnant, I was on weightloss journey and lost 6kg. I’m in the first trimester and have been feeling a bit anxious to continue working out. However, I’ve decided to get back to it not for weightloss now but to stay active and help with a smoother labour. Did anyone else workout during pregnancy and have any good/pregnancy safe workouts they can share? And/or any pregnancy safe workout classes you attended?

You look amazing! Congrats! I worked out at my gym, been with a personal trainer for a while, just told her as soon as I knew, but I was still lifting the week before I gave birth. Prenatal yoga and prenatal reformer Pilates I loved!

Thanks Natalie, I think I’m defo going to give prenatal yoga and Pilates a go

I honestly feel like it’s kept me sane. Been going about 4 days a week to an hour long class either Barry’s hit sessions or yoga. I have to do adjustments in the class but I absolutely love it. About 6/7months pregnant now and I really hope to go the whole way if my body lets me. I find I get slower every week and I need to adjust my weights down so it’s a bit humbling but I honestly think it’s been the best thing I’ve done. Always free for a fitness class in London if you fancy doing one together. Just go with what feels comfy and enjoy the movement that you can do without having the same expectations as before x

Thanks Susie, I love that you’re still doing Barry’s! I’m not sure about Barry’s but will defo take your advice on yoga 🥰
