Welcome to Momma Workout Wednesday!
Is your eating back to normal yet? Back to the regular programming or are you still suffering from food aversions, requiring small immediate snacks and having difficulty finding the energy to make meals? Am I covering everything? I mean, that was all me, which makes it a lot more difficult to get into a regular fitness routine, especially without feeling lightheaded during a workout. My goal during this period of time was to do whatever my body would allow.
On the agenda: simple workouts that broke a sweat but also kept me safe from dizziness and fatigue.
Here is a sample squat (with a touch of upper body) workout that I did at 12 weeks pregnant. Always keep in mind, I was working out prior to becoming pregnant and I am able to modify based on my pregnancy. Make sure you are making safe choices in your workout and make modifications for your body, as needed. Nothing is more important than keeping that little bean in there happy and healthy, so use your judgement momma!
