Water Aerobics During Pregnancy
Filed in archive Pregnancy Fitness on November 22, 2008
If you're looking for a fitness regimen that will help you keep fit throughout your pregnancy, consider doing some water aerobics. Being in water will take the weight off your legs and back and you will feel more comfortable working out. Aside from that, aquarobics has been shown to help during labor. According to a study published recently in the journal Reproductive Health, a course of water aerobics classes among by sedentary and low risk pregnant women has been shown to reduce the amount of pain-killing medication women request during labor.

I have done water aerobics in the past and found that the low impact feels best while burning calories and toning up. It's great especially for the gravitational pull you would feel outside of the water, especially when pregnant.
