Best Pregnancy Exercises You Can Do At Home: Single leg squat for your glutes

10/16/2018

0 Comments

 
So today I'm kicking off a new series called Best Pregnancy Exercises where you'll get quick videos of pregnancy exercises you can do at home or anywhere to keep you fit and active during your pregnancy! The first video up for this series is Best Pregnancy Exercises You Can Do At Home: Single Leg Squat for Your Glutes.  I decided to start with this exercise because at 24 weeks pregnant I have been having some SI-joint pain and pain on one side of my lower back. I can feel that this is due to an imbalance of strength in my tush and tight hip flexors so I want to work more on my glutes and pelvic floor strength.  

This prenatal exercise is perfect for moms in their first, second, or third trimester of pregnancy. No equipment is needed for this single leg squat exercise for your glutes which is perfect to help build strength in your glutes. No matter what trimester of pregnancy you are in this simple exercise is great to increase strength and keep you feeling good!

PS - I mention the shirts that are sold to benefit the Children's Fund at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. Here is a link to check those out. http://bit.ly/mommybarreapparel
