Avatar f tn So, I just had my first prenatal yoga class and it was amazing. The stretches helped my lower back soooo much. I highly recommend it!
Avatar n tn I want to increase flexibility and muscle tone. Does anyone have any recommendations for a decent yoga/exercise DVD?
Avatar f tn Prenatal water aerobics or just swimming in general is easy and feels good
Avatar f tn I love Zumba too but i wouldn't starting Zuma though if you weren't doing it before your pregnancy only because it is a lot of jumping and can be intense. Yoga is a good idea. It really is a good workout and you don't bounce around or exert too much. It is amazing for strength and flexibility and burns calories too.
Avatar f tn What about yoga and increasing your flexibility? I have noticed when I stretch and do my yoga first that my back problems are much easier to deal with while working out. What about acupuncture? I did this with my second pregnancy for my migraines and morning sickness. I'm just starting to lose my pregnancy weight from my third child who was a csection 15 months ago but I had some complications that hendered my weight loss but those are getting under control now slowly and surely.

Avatar f tn I get them occasionally... They come and go and last for a few seconds to a few minutes. Sometimes the areas just feel sore... Like I was doing a crap ton of sit ups. I do prenatal yoga though and every week for a few days after class the pains aren't as intense... I guess from all the stretching & strength & flexibility exercises. This is ny first pregnancy. I'm 18+3.
Avatar f tn I took prenatal yoga and pilates classes which helped with flexibility and breathing! I wish i could find the time to take some classes with my second.
Avatar n tn As your skill builds, the added poses become increasingly challenging in different ways, which makes yoga an exercise routine that grows with you. Another basic yoga concept is that everyone is on his or her own path, progressing at his or her own pace. So leave behind the competitive spirit or fear that you’re not as good as others. Be sure to let your instructor know you have arthritis so he or she can help adapt the poses to match your personal physical limits.
Avatar m tn Physician initially said revealed dehydrated discs around the S1 area but later said they looked fine. I have been doing yoga 3-5 times a week the past 1.5 months and been to a stretch therapist 5-6 times the past three weeks but the problem persists. Background: I worked out a lot - Crossfit 5-6 times a week + a little running - and wasn't great about stretching. My hip flexibility was not good and I was sore all the time.

Yoga will help you build core strength and improve your flexibility (and can really make you sweat!), whereas plyometrics is a bit higher impact, and involves taking steps, doing lunges, and even jumping around. Both are a lot of fun and are available in exercise DVD's that you can find online. Take care!
