In this week's podcast episode, I tackle the myth that lifting weights during pregnancy is dangerous with prenatal fitness expert Sheridan Sky.
Many women are told not to lift more than 20 pounds while pregnant, but this outdated advice overlooks the real benefits that resistance training can provide.
We discuss why lifting doesn’t increase risks like miscarriage, prolapse, or abdominal separation and explore how strength training can benefit both mom and baby by lowering risks of conditions like gestational diabetes and preeclampsia.
Plus, Sheridan shares practical tips for safely modifying workouts in each trimester. If you or someone you know is expecting, this is a must-listen episode!
