First Trimester

Equipment needed:

To get the msot out of the programme you will need some dumbbells or a barbell, a fitball, bench and a mat. Most gyms should have all this equipment, and in most instances alternative exercises are offered in case you don't have the right equipment.

Tips:

Please make sure you demonstrate correct technique for getting up and down from the floor, more information on this can be found in the screening form

If you are experiencing any difficulties balancing during any of the stretches or resistance exercises then use a prop to help you balance, for example a chair or the wall

Depending on the size of your bump you may find it hard to replicate the range of motion shown for some exercises/stretches, if this is the case then reduce your range and work only where it is comfortable. If it is still uncomfortable then perform the alternative exercise.
