This program is ideal for the first and second trimester but can also be performed in the third trimester depending on the individuals' athletic ability and pain and/or exhaustion levels at the end of their pregnancy. It is entirely prenatal safe but you will have to determine whether your ability level is comfortable with this program through the third trimester.

The ways people are unsafe in pregnancy is negating exercise entirely, lifting too heavy, or targeting areas of their six pack in pregnancy that should be avoided in exercise. As long as you follow the form I demonstrate in my videos and lift at a weight that is challenging but not compromising your form, then this program is a perfect way to lift while pregnant as it is designed for that.

Yes! I highly recommend repeating this program throughout all trimesters of your pregnancy to maintain your fitness and see in what areas you gain strength throughout your pregnancy. This will set you up for success in postpartum so that you can avoid injury and more safely and efficiently rehab and get back to fitness once baby (or babies) is/are earthside!
