If you were less athletic than Cynthia was before you got pregnant, you shouldn’t suddenly force yourself to exercise more, warns Hcklebeck. “But keep moving. Swim, bike, walk, or do yoga. We don’t recommend running, at least if you didn’t do it before pregnancy. Your pelvic floor softens during pregnancy and when you run. Your joints, including your stomach. pelvis, must be beaten.”

And also in the gym: exercise is good, but don’t force anything. “Try to do as much as you can with your body weight. Before getting pregnant were you used to training with weights? You can continue to do this, only in a lighter position. Definitely from 12 to 14 weeks. Also try not to actively train the rectus abdominis at this time. During pregnancy, the abdominal muscles give way to make room for the growing uterus. The rectus abdominis muscle must relax to create this space, we call it “diastasis.”
And even if your body is signaling that you need to move less, it doesn’t necessarily mean the end of your (athletic) workout, says Heckelbecki. Involve the right specialists. Pelvic complaints, for example, are very common. If you go to a pelvic physiotherapist on time, he or she can give you tips and exercises to prevent it from getting worse, but also more often to continue exercising responsibly. .” “
