Alissa Mosca, a trainer and weightlifting coach, continues her regular workout regime at six months pregnant by adjusting her weights. While in her first trimester she faced some discomfort with certain exercises, she learned to listen to her body and modify her routine. In her second trimester, she feels confident performing various exercises and provides guidance for beginners, recommending gym machines for controlled movements and kettlebells for those familiar with strength training, showcasing that fitness is achievable during pregnancy with the right approach.
If someone is just starting a fitness journey to stay healthy while pregnant, machines are a great place to start. The positioning is controlled.
During the second trimester, I am more aware of my growing body, but I can still do things like burpees, pull ups, push-ups, etc.
