  • What's a Good Beginning Fitness Routine for Pregnancy?

    QUESTION

    Dear Fitness Expert,
    I am 26 years old and 36 weeks pregnant with my first. I was about 25 pounds overweight prior to the pregnancy, and while I realize that I'll be losing quite a bit through delivery and the subsequent few weeks just due to natural processes, I feel absolutely enormous now!

    QUESTION

    Dear Fitness Expert,
    My husband and I are now planning for a baby very soon and want to get our bodies in shape both mentally and physically. I am uncertain if I should join a gym for physical fitness.

    Our daily course of work is not physically demanding. My husband is very active in his gym training and has been doing weights for months. I, on the other hand, have been very lazy but I want to do some sort of a physical exercise now. My body mass weight is in proportion to my height. I'm 5'6 and weigh 58kgs.

    I really like dance-aerobics or aerobics...

    Hello, I just found out I'm pregnant (not my first) and am not sure about a fitness routine. After my last pregnancy, I worked out six days a week very strenuously for about a year, but have fallen out of my routine the past few months.

    How much can I do now that I'm pregnant? I've also gained some weight back, and really want to keep my weight gain during pregnancy under check.
