i walk every day with arm weights and ankle weights. its not high impact but it seems to help. ↑ |
I have a prego yoga dvd. I lost the jacke or I would tell you the name but you can look it up on the web Just type in exercise while pregnant. ↑ |
Simple Yoga For Pregnancy Found the name.
Good luck ↑ |
Thank you. Does yoga build muscle or tone your arms and/or legs? ↑ |
i did yoga too, bodyflow classes at golds gym. they were GREAT. except for the parts where they lay on their backs and bellies which i had to sit out.
lori, its probablly not a good idea to try to build muscle while pregnant, i heard it can release toxins into your system which might harm the fetus. but very light weights like ankle and wristweights while walking might help you keep the muscle you have toned without stressing your body too bad.
i wish i could still go to my yoga classes but things in my house are so crazy i can never seem to get there! ↑ |
More then likely I will be put on bedrest again so I wanted something i can do on the couch with my arms and legs LOL.. ↑ |
little 2 or 5 pound handweights but i think you would get terribly bored with that i couldnt keep that up if i was on bed rest, how boring! good luck to you! ↑ |
Please ask your DR before you do any workouts Just to be in the safe side.You might be able to do isametrics( spelling?). It is when you flex and release your muscels....No need for weights.
Well just double check if you can do any of these.I have see alot of work oust on dvd you can type in Pregnency work outs and a lot will pop up.
Very best of luck! ↑ |
