Benefits of Walking While Pregnant


ree

  • Prevents excess weight gain

  • Reduces risk of preg complications

  • Boosts mood

  • Boost energy

  • Improves sleep

  • Eases constipation

  • Faster recovery after birth

  • Reduces back pain

  • Encourages baby to optimal position for delivery

  • Makes you want to be more active

  • And I personally enjoy it too!


Aiming for a minimum 30min would be great, but any amount is helpful.


How I typically get my steps in? I start the day with 1h treadmill at incline walk (9 incline at 2.5 pace). That gives me around 7k steps. I try to make it to 10k minimum per day with the rest of the work days going for walks with the kids after dinner, park, life and such.
