If there are no problems, exercising during pregnancy is usually safe. It has numerous psychological and physical advantages. Maintaining an active lifestyle can increase your vitality, improve your fitness, alleviate pelvic and back pain, reduce stress and anxiety, enhance circulation and sleep, facilitate labor, and accelerate recovery. Advice for exercising safely:
- Always begin with a warm-up and opt for gentle exercises, such as swimming or walking.
- If you experience shortness of breath, chest pain, or difficulty speaking while exercising, stop immediately.
- Avoid extremely hot weather, stay hydrated, and don’t start vigorous exercise right away if you weren’t previously active.
