Information for the blog/website: Myths about exercising during pregnancy
Industry: Healthcare
Topic: Myths about exercising during pregnancy
Tone: Instructional/Educational
Outline & Structure: Example style of subheading question with Myth and Truth layout.
Can I lift weights during pregnancy?
Myth #1 - You can’t weight lift or weight train while pregnant
Truth -
Subheadings and Myths to be covered;
1. Can I lift weights during pregnancy? - You cant weight lift or weight train while pregnant
2. Do I need to keep my heart rate under 140bpm during exercise while pregnant? - Your heart rate must not go over 140bpm.
3. Can I lay on my back when pregnant? - You must not lay on your back while pregnant.
4. Can I do abdominal workouts while pregnant? - You cant do core workouts.
5. Is it safe to run when pregnant? You cant run while pregnant.
6. Do I need to do pelvic floor exercises if I’m having a Caesarean? - You don’t need to exercise your pelvic floor if you are having a caesarean section
7. Is it safe to lift my arms above my head when pregnant? - You must not lift your arms over your head. (increase in blood pressure)
8. Can I still do boot camps or HIIT training when pregnant? - You cant train in boot camps or HIIT style training.
9. Is it safe to stretch during the first and third trimesters? - You must not stretch for risk of injury. (- please include: Relaxin hormone causes muscles, joints and ligaments to relax. First trimester it relaxes the uterine wall for more oxygen and nutrients to get to the growing foetus and the third trimester its to relax the body to help prepare for childbirth)
10. Can I exercise towards the end of my pregnancy? - You must not exercise in your third trimester. (- please include: taking down intensity and duration and weight lifted is recommended in last weeks of pregnancy - water aerobics is ideal to help prepare your body in a safe buoyant environment, getting all over workout focuses on strength, toning and cardio fitness)
Extra notes: I want these myths explained as to why they are just that (a myth) and to explain how these myths are old advice and now modern research and ways of thinking means that while we might not be able to do everything we did before we can alter the way we exercise to adapt to our changing bodies and abilities.
