Yesterday at the gym I worked my legs. That means squats (but only a few). Leg extensions, that is where you sit on a machine and lift your legs up under a bar. I did standing leg curls, that helps work the muscles on the back of you leg. And a few other things nothing to hard and not to much of one thing.  Today I am going to be working on my Biceps and Triceps. For that you are working more with dumbbells or a few machines. What you want to do when you are pregnant is to do low weights but lots of sets. So lets says I can curl 15 lbs, 15 times and I do that 3 times and rest 30 seconds in between. Well now I am going to do 10 lbs 15 times, rest for 30 seconds and do that 5 times. When going to the gym writher you are pregnant or not its not always about doing the big weights, its about how many times you can do it. Then more you do the more you are taxing yourself. The better the results you will get.  If you are anything like me and don't know what to do at the gym don't worr

With my first two pregnancies I never worked out. Sure ok I wanted a little but nothing really. Well before I got pregnant this time I had been starting to workout. Nothing crazy because I was new but I went every day and walked/run and lift weights. I know that you can workout while you are pregnant but what can I do. So I thought I would let you know somethings you can do. When you are in your first trimester I have head different things as to wether you can work your abs or not. So for that if you are not sure just ask your doctor first. In fact make sure you asked your doctor before going ANY EXERCISES. With that being said here are somethings you can and can't do: Dos:  Arm stretching and chest stretches. Prenatal yoga. Light weigh lifting, Walking.  Don't: Do abs work. Don't over lift weights. Don't start anything new. Ok I know that is kind of a short list but really you can do a lot, if you have already done it and if you ask your doctor. So far I am 4 weeks and
