This comprehensive guide was created with input from elite runners who are also moms and ProNatal Certified Coaches. Explore what you will learn.
Learn some important general guidance that applies throughout pregnancy — including how to gauge the right intensity for your body and the #1 thing to focus on to mitigate injuries and facilitate comfortable running.
For each trimester, we’ll cover bodily changes to be aware of and then discuss training strategies to help you manage those bodily changes. This will include specific exercises to focus on with video demonstrations.
We’ll cover some important symptoms to be aware of that indicate it might be time to regress or stop running. We also provide several alternative options to still get a great cardio workout if you happen to experience any of these symptoms.
In order to safely & effectively return to running postpartum, you need to build your body’s “suspension system” — like that of a car. We accomplish this through a detailed 5-step process that will prepare your body to efficiently absorb the impact forces of running (“bumps in the road”) and stay healthy for miles to come. For each step, we’ll provide recommended exercises with video demonstrations.
We’ll close with several additional resources that can support you throughout your pregnancy or postpartum running journey — or assist you in supporting your clients through theirs.
