From our dietitian Lori 🤍: "Pregnancy has been humbling in the best way. I’ve been incredibly lucky to feel mostly well, and that’s allowed me to keep moving in a way that feels really good for both my body and my mind.
Training goals have looked different, but as always, movement has been medicinal to me as my body changes. The biggest principles guiding me so far:
✨ Consistency over intensity✨
Doing something just about daily. Some days that’s a run, some days a walk, a hike, a strength class, or just gentle stretching. It all counts.
✨ Listening to recovery cues✨
Pregnancy is already a full-time physiological workout. I’ve had to respect fatigue, take more rest days, and be flexible when my body asks for less.
✨ Fueling like my body is working harder (because it is!)✨
Activity while growing a human requires more energy, more hydration, and more intentional nutrition than I was used to before.
Every pregnancy looks different, but for me, daily movement + adequate fuel + grace for changing capacity has been the sweet spot."
If you’re navigating pregnancy (or wanting to prepare your body for it) and wondering how to balance movement and nutrition, our dietitians are here to support you 🤍
