Sitting at nearly 33 weeks pregnant, I  filmed a quick mobility video to give some ideas of how to keep yourself moving during pregnancy. I have continued my training throughout pregnancy, still lifting weights at the gym and doing interval training. (all be it a little lighter than usual) Dany would have chopped my legs off if I had continued leg pressing 200 kg

Have a quick look at the video- Mobility in Pregnancy it’s suitable for all special populations or just to use as a nice mobility session a few times a week to keep the body moving or even just to get the body moving in the morning.

You could do one round of ten repetitions or use it as a circuit and repeat the whole sequence two or three times.

So even if you’re not in the pregnancy club, check it out and leave your feedback.
