If you’re about to have a child, you may want to know how to exercise for pregnant women. I’m going to give you some simple, safe things you can do at home. If you’re pregnant right now, take 2 minutes to read this article for some new ways to stay healthy and maintain a good pregnancy weight.

Exercise for Pregnant Women

1. Mini-trampoline jumping

This is a nice, smooth exercise. The bouncing is pretty minimal actually. It’s not like you’re going to be jumping 5 inches up off the mini-trampoline. Instead, you sway your feet back and forth while your toes never leave contact with the mini-trampoline. Only your heels lift off it. Do this for a total of 15-20 minutes a day. It’s a great exercise for diminishing cellulite as well. Do this everyday.

2. Wall squats

Standing with your back against a wall, slide down the wall into a squat position. Then squat back up. Do that for 3-4 sets of 10 reps. Depending on what area of your thighs you most want to work, move your feet in or out. Your feet closer together works more the outter thighs while spreading your feet farther apart targets more the inner thighs. Do this 3 days a week.

3. Wall pushups

Put your hands on a wall and bring your face to the wall so that your nose almost touches it. Then push off it. Do 3 sets of as many of these wall pushups as you can do. This is good for your upper body strength… in your chest, shoulders, and arms. Do these 3-4 times a week. Takes less than 5 minutes.
