Pregnancy Strength Back and Glutes Workout

This Pregnancy Strength Back and Glutes Workout is 20 minutes in duration. Stay strong in pregnancy, relieve pregnancy back ache and feel connected to your pelvic floor, glutes and core.

This fully packed 20-minute workout will have you feeling strong, stable and energized throughout your entire pregnancy. Designed specifically for second trimester, although safe for all trimesters.

Welcome to my Pregnancy Strength Back and Glutes Workout!

This workout is designed to help expecting mothers build strength in their back and glutes, which can help alleviate common pregnancy discomforts and prepare the body for labor and delivery.

In this workout, I will be focusing on exercises that are safe and effective for pregnant women, while still challenging and beneficial. Remember to listen to your body, modify exercises as needed, and always consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new exercise routine during pregnancy.

So grab a mat and let's get started on building strength and stability in your back and glutes during this special time in your life.

 

Do you have PGP?

Modifications are provided for Pelvic Girdle Pain (PGP), but we highly recommend if you have severe PGP to focus on our Pelvic Girdle Pain specific exercise routines such as: Relieve Pelvic Girdle Pain Pregnancy

Your 20-minute workout consists of a warm-up, cool down and three circuits each with 3 exercises that you'll complete 40 second reps with a short break x 2 sets before moving to the next circuit. No equipment needed.

There are spaces for drink breaks, so have a water bottle handy and ensure you have water whenever you need.

Workout in a well-ventilated area, as over-heating is not the aim of the game!

We'll start the warm-up and first circuit standing.
