Can I do strength training at CityWide while Im pregnant?
A. Yes. In the absence of obstetric or medical complications, pregnant women can and should continue to strength train during pregnancy. According to the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecologists, pregnant women should engage in weight bearing exercise of moderate intensity weekly. Strength training is one of the best forms of exercise as it prepares a woman’s body for the weight gain accompanied by pregnancy as well as for the physical challenges a new mom faces.
