Trimester Considerations

Be sure to always be in control with your workouts and know when to stop.  You want to stay in the workout happy place.

• You can carry on a conversation during your workout
• Do not allow the body to overheat
• Don’t fight to keep pushing through the workout
• Stop if you feel any pain
• Calf swelling or pain
• Shortness of breath before you even start your workout
• Dizziness and loss of balance
• A headache
• Chest Pain
• Vaginal bleeding or fluid leakage
• Contractions
• You feel pelvic pain or pressure
