How often can pregnant women exercise?

The general recommendation for pregnant women is to get at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity aerobic activity each week. This amount of exercise can be spread out throughout the week and can be done in bouts of as little as 10 minutes.

Pregnant women should aim to exercise most days of the week and should avoid prolonged periods of inactivity. However, it is also important to listen to your body and take breaks when you need them.

Some of the best exercises for pregnant women include walking, swimming, yoga, and pilates. These exercises are low-impact and help to improve circulation, strengthen your muscles, and reduce stress.

It is important to talk to your doctor before starting or changing any exercise program during pregnancy. Your doctor can help you create an exercise plan that is safe and appropriate for you.
