Night Walks with my Family

My Gorgeous Wife
 
This week, we have been exercising regularly by taking night walks. We made it a point to at least have 3 night walks a week and so far it has been very motivating. This exercise actually helps during pregnancy and also for the husband who is putting on some serious weights.

Enjoyin my TRUE QUALITY MOMENT...

For pregnant mom’s, these walks are SUPER beneficial so if you are reading this blog, its time u plan a night walk with your spouse coz here are the friggin benefits:

 
Your pulse rate should not be above 140 beats per minute at any time during your walk. You may also use the "talk test" -- you should be able to speak in complete sentences without having to huff and puff and gasp out only short phrases.

Im just gettin better at this

So HAWT!

"Probably the best exercise for a pregnant woman is walking, an excellent way to tone muscles, get fresh air, keep your body regular, and help you sleep soundly at night. But remember: never push yourself to the point of exhaustion. It's much better to take several short, pleasant walks spaced throughout the day rather than one long, tiring trek." Guide for Expectant Parents.

If you already walk, keep up your regular program. To get started, walk 20 -30 minutes a day three days a week and build from there to 30 - 60 minutes most days of the week. Walking for exercise can continue into your last trimester and right up until birth as long as it is comfortable for you.

.....I see the light....

Moderation is the word during pregnancy, don't push yourself to the extreme. The chemical byproducts and raised body temperature of overexertion are bad for the fetus.

A pulse more than 100 beats per minute five minutes after a workout means you have worked your body too hard. Drink water before, during, and after your walk to help regulate your core body temperature. The fetus cannot get rid of excessive heat, so avoid exercising in hot weather and keep your walking workout moderate. Consider mall walking as an alternative during hot weather.

This is why christopher didnt come along, we had no leash!

 
Posture!
·      A good walking posture is essential and can help prevent backache.
·      Stand up straight: Think of being a tall and straight, do not arch your back.
·      Do not lean forward or lean back: Leaning puts strain on the back muscles.
·      Eyes forward: not looking down but rather 20 feet ahead.
·      Chin up (parallel to the ground): This reduces strain on neck and back.
Loosen the shoulders: Shrug once and let your shoulders fall and relax, your shoulders slightly back.
Suck in your stomach
Tuck in your behind: Rotate your hips forward slightly. This will keep you from arching your back.


 
Prevent Constipation
·      If you have difficulty with constipation during pregnancy, walking is a natural, drug-free remedy.



We have been doing this regularly and would really suggest that pregnant couples do this….plus its spending time with the most important people in your life.

DADDY – KEEP ON WALKING!
