Pregnancy Fitness Program DVD

This is a wonderful fitness DVD with exercises and tips to help you in pregnancy, during labor and in your beginning postpartum months. The techniques you will learn in this DVD will help you:

During pregnancy: Strengthening and muscle-building exercises and stretches that are safe and comfortable for a growing pregnant woman. It’s important to keep strong so you have some good muscles when it comes time for “the big day”. Being in shape for labor and delivery will help you to have an easier, more controlled labor. Certain key exercises you’ll learn will help to prepare your body for birth by toning the pelvic floor and abdominal muscles.

During labor and delivery:  The breathing and relaxation techniques you learn will help to ease and control labor, along with keeping you calm and relaxed throughout labor and delivery. Using a birthing ball while in labor is popular for both home and hospital births. You’ll learn proper stretching techniques to help ease the pains of labor. Many customers who have watched the Pregnancy Fitness Program DVD have reported calm labors and deliveries, and most have given birth without medication. If that isn’t encouraging, we’re not sure what is!

During your first few postpartum months: What better way to bounce back into shape than an exercise ball? The program will help you get your pre-pregnancy body back with exercises and stretches designed to tone your body and take the weight off. You’ll feel great in no time!

Become more aware of your body, its strength and capability. Our clients have reported calm labors and deliveries, and most have given birth without medication.
