Your Fitness4Baby Pregnancy Exercise Routine #1



Are you ready to put it all together?

OK, here is your first routine!
  • We recommend doing the exercises in the order they are presented.
Warm Up:
  • A session of cardio would be ideal, however if you go for a quick 5 minute walk around the block that will sufficient.
Warm Up Stretches:
  • Your warm up stretches will be active in nature. Hold each stretch for 5 to 10 seconds and do them repeatedly.
Pregnancy "Cat and Cow" - Do 10 of each!

Pregnancy Hip Flexor Stretch - Do 3 times holding for 5 - 10 sec each!

Pregnancy "Child's Pose" - Do 3 times nice and easy!

Pregnancy Pointer - Do 3 sets of 12 reps, alternating sides each time.

Pregnancy Plank - Do 3 sets, start slow and go for time. 5 seconds for beginners!

Pregnancy Lateral Walks - Walk a set distance 3 times there and back. Keep your form!

Pregnancy Hip Extension on the Ball - Do 3 sets of 12 reps. Make sure you are comfortable on the ball.

Pregnancy Squat and Row - Do 3 sets of 12 reps, nice and smooth!

Pregnancy Push Up - Do 3 sets, as many as you can up to 10, don't forget to breath!

Pregnancy Tricep Extension - Do 3 sets of 12 reps, keep your eyes and shoulders down!


Cool Down Stretches!
  • Hold these stretches for 20 to 30 seconds!
Same as the warm up:

"Cat and Cow" - just keep moving, nice and slow.

Hip Flexor Stretch - you may want to hold onto something for balance.

"Child's Pose" - you should love this one!

Standing Quadriceps Stretch - hold and breath for 20 to 30 seconds.
