1. What can mom-to-be expect from Expecting More? Does the DVD/program work all the body parts - abs, butt, legs, back, etc?
Expecting More® is an all inclusive pregnancy workout program. It has six different workouts, offering various levels of exercises, from interval training, sports conditioning, cardio dance, strength training, pilates and yoga fusion. All workouts are total body sculpting routines.
2. What makes it different from other prenatal fitness products?
Expecting More® was designed for pregnant women of ALL fitness levels, from beginner to advanced. Though it offers modifications for everyone, Expecting More® caters to the pregnant woman who was active prior to pregnancy and is looking for an extremely well-rounded workout regiment that will help her stay inspired, challenged and fit throughout her pregnancy. Not many other prenatal workout DVDs cater to the woman who was very active prior to pregnancy.
3. How long will it take each day and how often should it be done? Can you do the work outs all the way until your due date?
The workouts vary from 20-50 minutes. The included calendar offers a schedule, however, you can also pick which workout to do each day, depending on how you feel.
4. How do you know if you are working too hard?
I provide many opportunities during the workouts to check in and see how you are feeling. Remember the general rule during pregnancy is to work out at a moderate level for you. You want to make sure you can always talk out loud and don't' get too hot.
5. What if you didn't work out often before pregnancy - is it safe to start now?
Check in with your OBGYN, but my guess is that your doctor will actually want you to start doing something. Whatever you choose, start slow and listen to your body!
6. Any other advice for mom-to-be's who want to stay fit during pregnancy?
Remember every day is different. Wake up each day and listen to your body. On the days you feel energized, do as much as you can because there will be plenty of days where you don't feel up to working out. On those days, do what you need to do to rest and recover. Keep reminding yourself that by staying fit you are creating a healthier baby, and by keeping your body fit you will be able to bounce back quicker.
