Strength Through Pregnancy: Empowerment Over Caution
Pregnant women can maintain and even increase their strength through appropriate physical activity, contrary to common beliefs that suggest they should avoid exertion. Many women experience a spectrum of fitness levels during pregnancy, with some feeling empowered and stronger than ever. Physical activity doesn't need to be intense; it can be gentle yet effective, allowing for muscle building without overwhelming the individual.

Shift the mindset around pregnancy fitness by embracing strength training as a means of empowerment rather than a risk.
