20 minute Functional Strength Training for Pregnancy | NO REPEAT | FULL STANDING
Training functionally during pregnancy will not only help you maintain muscle mass during pregnancy but also make recovery easier! I created this quick full-body strength workout to keep your body strong during pregnancy!! This is the perfect workout to do at home because you only need dumbbells!
We will incorporate compound exercises in a no-repeat full-standing workout structure to target the upper body, lower body, and core while focusing on building strength in all the major muscle groups we use during and after pregnancy!
If you were training before your pregnancy, this would be a great workout to add because it takes a more advanced approach to strength training to focus on maintaining muscle!
This workout is safe for all trimesters, but please listen to your body do what feels best to you, and stop if any exercise feels uncomfortable! Our body goes through many changes during pregnancy, so some things that feel great before pregnancy may not during!
