Last Weeks of Pregnancy: My Fitness Faves

Writer: Janine HabanaJanine Habana

My pregnancy countdown has begun and at week 36 I find that things are becoming more difficult, and even though I am strong and healthy, I am very aware of just being a bit more delicate with myself. This brought me to my extremely simplified current fitness routine: PLANK, SQUAT, ROW. (And yes of course, those kegels.)


These simple movements help my body stay active until week 40, even if just a little bit!


Thanks to the plank, my core stays as toned and active as it can stand (at a time when your belly just wants to go all out!),

The squats not only strengthen my legs for a possible natural delivery but the large leg muscles get my heart rate going well to ensure a good flush of circulation in a body loaded with extra water, blood and hormones.

And the row, this helps my posture keep strong and not be pulled down too much by the extra weight. Extra bonus: a strong upper body is always welcome as a baby and much carrying is awaiting me around the corner!


Yours in health,


Janine
