Exercise during pregnancy is an important part of a healthy outcome for both mother and baby. Exercise professionals should know risk factors, proper exercise selection and what is contraindicated for safe participation. This program explores the importance of exercise, training intensities and exercise volumes, what to avoid and what is safe, as well as who should not exercise due to complications.

When training pregnant females exercise professionals should understand starting points, qualifications for training intensities and volume as well as exercise selection. Monitoring the program, understanding maternal adaptations, making adjustments across terms and identifying areas for risk are all part of the journey. Learn how to work with this special population in the most safe and effective manner.
