May 2016: Prenatal Programming Day 7

BELLY BREATHING.

You should be able to differentiate between breaths now- belly, side vs. rib cage vs. chest.  Stand if front of a mirror or video yourself performing each breath. In fact, do each a few times. Notice how your body feels and responds. Finish with 20 belly breaths.
Functional Progression Part 2-Modified. Perform 3 x 10 Each Side.
Bodyweight (Just You) Box Squats. Perform 3 x 20
Advanced Glute Activation. I feel like we are all at a level to do and appreciate this warm-up. If you are in your third trimester and getting close to your EDD, you may just want to do warm-up and move through this a few times and then go for a walk:) Perform 30 with both legs and 15 singles. Rest as needed.

Strength.

Side lunges. Women either love these or hate these;) I am not great at these, but I’ve certainly learned to appreciate them. Remember, tall chest and choose weights confidently.
