What are the best exercises for pregnant women?

Send us a text

One of the most common questions I get asked as a women’s physio is what type of exercise women should be doing while pregnant. Today I dive into this topic to discuss some of the things to be aware of when exercising, my go-to recommendations and the types of exercises you should avoid while pregnant. 

I talk about the importance of getting a medical clearance and individualised assessment from a physio, especially if you’re keen to continue higher impact exercise. I discuss pelvic floor, core, strengthening and aerobic exercises and why I’m a fan of low impact and moderate exercise for pregnancy.

Make sure you check out the free exercises and programs I have available on my website. There’s plenty available to keep you fit and healthy during pregnancy.
