This workout targets your legs and core while being pregnant. Get ready to have some fun with this pregnancy strength training workout.
Reverse planks are great safe core exercises to do that sometimes gets overlooked. This exercise is great to help strengthen your shoulders, back and hamstrings during pregnancy.
The sumo squat walk is a fun lower body strength exercise with the addition of hamstring curl to work the back of the legs too. Both are important during pregnancy.
And with me being more mindful of what exercises to do to help prevent a large diastasis postpartum I have been avoiding deadlifts to work the hamstrings.
Standing hamstring curls is a great move to target the back of the leg in a safe way.
