Prenatal Cardio HIIT Workout
Helloooooooooooo ladies! I am officially 3/4 of the way finished with this pregnancy and I cannot believe how fast time flies-especially the second time around.
While I am still lifting weights regularly, I am relying on cardio more so to keep me fit in these last weeks. Why? Cardio is great for keeping your body fat percentage level-not to mention, regularly moving really helps with those aches and pains! Plus, you get to SWEAT and we all know that sweating is good for you and baby.
Here is a quick cardio hiit style routine of a few moves that I personally enjoy to do at this point of my pregnancy. I have even included a workout video at the end if you are confused about any of the moves!
As always, please talk to your doctor to make sure you have zero restrictions when doing cardio. For a long term prenatal workout program, check out my FIT FOR TWO pregnancy workout program!
