No Gym Required
About half of the girls I train on Tuesday evenings are pregnant right now. That means that I need to come up with workouts for both pregnant and non-pregnant women to do at the same time. This fun, effective circuit training workout is only about 25 minutes long and will have you sweating in no time. If you aren’t pregnant, you can really push yourself with these 7 exercises. If you are pregnant, you can get a good sweat going and sleep well at night……just don’t over do it and remember to ALWAYS consult your doctor before doing any of my workouts!
Burn about 300 calories with this 25 minute workout you can do outside. Don’t have a trx or a bosu ball? Try using a band in place of the TRX and a bench or step in place of a bosu ball. Grab a partner and have fun!
