I trained for and ran a half marathon while pregnant with my first, and did some running with all my other pregnancies. Nothing better than staying in shape during pregnancy to help with labor and postpartum recovery. Not to mention supporting good circulation and reducing risk of diabetes.
Good for you!!! So many advantages to exercise during pregnancy. Sometimes pregnancy becomes all about the don’ts-but as you said there are so many advantages to some of the dos (like exercise!)!
I hope videos like and informed instructors like yourself can help educate and empower women so they know that exercise isn't only safe, but encouraged if they have guidance from a well-trained professional. The benefits far outweigh the risks, but I'm sure you already know that!
Have you ever heard or been given ridiculous exercise advice??
Yep sure have with my first pregnancy the Gyno told me since I worked in retail that’s good exercise. She was the worst and insensitive.

Yesss!!! Long time fitness instructor (barre) and lots of clients would get pregnant and then get very worried about classes.
