no inversion
no full decline or full flat stuff
use tons of padding to support the body shape on benches/machines ect
Sleep, diet and anti stress stuff is essential (or should be) for her and baby health
We used to allow women to workout on our program till month 7 |
Dont over do the stretching as in the 3 tri, there is a surge of relaxin, which may effect joints otherbthan the ones its supposed too.
The weights are ok, but be aware in the first 12 weeks of breath holding and BP during lifting
Transverse abdominal stuff is ok during 2nd Tri but not too extreme.
Have had three clients through pregnancy, with no problems on child or mother (fathers all suffered immensely so i hear)
