exercise and trying to conceive–how much is too much?
hi!
i go to a 90 min hatha type yoga class 4 times a week (non-heated room, not intensive vinyasa). i also run about 10 miles a week on the treadmill and walk quickly 10 miles on the treadmill. (total 20 miles).
is this too much exercise to try and conceive? i have researched this a ton online but cannot seem to get any super clear answers.
btw–i am thin, but not skinny~~so on the thin range of normal but def. not underweight.
thanks!
** i have been doing this same exercise routine (actually a bit more before) for 1.5 years).
as long as it’s something your body is used to, you should be fine. same as when you get pregnant, it’s ok to be on an exercise program when you get pregnant but you should never start a new one after you find out unless it’s advised by your doctor. I would just keep doing things as you have been, and once you find out your pregnant, talk to your doctor about how much is too much or if your ok to continue.
Hot yoga is fast catching up

Hatha Yoga (Paperback) $35.24 HATHA YOGA: THE HIDDEN LANGUAGE takes the study and practice of hatha yoga far beyond a series of physical exercises. Building on the classical foundations of an ancient tradition, Swami Radha brilliantly synthesizes the ancient wisdom of yoga with an understanding of psychological and spiritual facets of contemporary life. Working with metaphor and symbolism, imagery and visualization, Swami Radha guides students toward a richer understanding not only of Hatha Yoga, but also of their purpose in life. With this approach, one can penetrate the mystical messages of the asanas so that the body is truly understood as a spiritual tool. |
