58. Ask Anything Part 5 Pregnancy Questions

from Every Mom Is An Athlete

In this Ask Anything episode, I’m answering some of the most common questions I get about pregnancy and fitness. I’m talking about outdated pregnancy exercise advice, how hard you can safely work out during pregnancy, and why the old 140 heart rate rule is no longer recommended. I also share how I use the talk test with my patients and why exercise remains one of the best things you can do for both pregnancy and postpartum recovery.Tune in to hear what I have to say about pregnancy-specific core training, the research on exercise and C-section rates, what to do about pubic bone and pelvic girdle pain, and how I approach exercise modifications throughout each trimester. Plus, I explain my thoughts on coning and doming, exercising on your back during pregnancy, and staying active while still giving yourself plenty of grace as your body changes.Make sure to hit follow/subscribe so you never miss an episode!Connect with Dr. Karlie:Follow on Instagram @drkarlieCheck out the websiteResources & Links:Episode 52.
