Question of the month: How often do you work out? What's your preferred method of exercise?
I hate writing this as a declaration of how lazy I am, but I rarely work out. I know I need to and I want to, but I just haven't made it a priority. I do enjoy pilates and cycling. I do pin a ton of workouts I plan on one day doing. I also love the the Jillian Michaels workout videos, she's amazing. Especially these pregnancy ones I've found:
Turn on, tune in, tone up!
This workout is deemed the "lazy girl's workout" which is totally up my alley since my above confession...The pin said it's timed for a 30 minute show with commercials.

Ok, here's my 2 cents for ya: I never worked out with my first 2 pregnancies. Big mistake. Even if you only walk or do a little bit, do something! It made a huge difference when I worked out during my last pregnancy. I only ended up gaining 29 pounds (they other two were 40+) and my delivery was only 4 1/2 hours from first contraction to finish (as opposed to 12 hours and 9 1/2 hours). Just listen to your body and if something bothers you then STOP immediately. Don't let labor scare you! You will be just fine!
I love your honesty! I agree with the commentor above... make it a priority now, especially since you are young. Your body bounces back a little easier. :)
These all look like great workouts! :)
Thanks for the links! The first one definitely looks do-able...combining working out with TV watching is a great idea!
ah yes! this i can relate too! im 27 weeks preggers with number two! im not too active (even though i should be) but any free time i have, i want to nap, or get organized for baby! if it's any encouragement...i was able to loose all the baby weight from my first ( a staggering 55 lbs!) with not much effort :)
I love following workout routines that doesn't require to go to the gym and takes up so much space. I have a busy lifestyle that I can't even find exercise on my schedule. But, I think if you really want to live healthy, you'll find a way.
