Book Reviews of Pregnancy Fitness: Mind Body Spirit (Health & Fitness)
Book Review: "You're all Baby!"ÿ
Summary: 5 Stars
What a compliment it is to here that your friends think you have not gained much weight during your pregnancy so far. I truely believe that Ginny's book along with walking helped me stay in control. I found it helpful that each trimester had it's own section. Not only does each section explain the importance of your health, but the importance of your unborn child's health. I also found that the excercises helped relieve stress and make it less difficult to move around. It's important to stay flexible since your bones and muscles are changing in ways they have never changed before. I highly recommend Pregnancy Fitness not only for the helpful advice through the first three trimesters, but for the last section Recovering your Body. It will take time, lots of time to get back your body. I think I will be reading this chapter often, very often!

Pregnancy Fitness, by the experts at Fitness Magazine, provides expectant mothers with all the information they need to exercise safely and effectively throughout their pregnancy.Whether you're a hard-core triathlete or just starting a fitness program for the first time, proper exercise can ensure a healthier pregnancy, an easier delivery, and a faster recovery. Pregnancy Fitness guides you carefully through every trimester, covering the physical changes and common complaints for each one, from shortness of breath to dizziness to morning sickness. In each section, chapters on Cardiovascular Fitness and Getting Stronger help you develop the aerobic capacity and muscles to carry your growing child with greater comfort and prepare you for labor. Illustrated exercises show you how to enhance flexibility, build strength, and relieve pain as your pregnancy progresses.
Q&As throughout the book cover specific concerns: Can I continue running in the second trimester? Can I lift more than ten pounds? And How to Cope sidebars address common conditions from swollen joints and sleep problems to cravings and gestational diabetes.
Based on the latest medical research and designed for women of every fitness level, Pregnancy Fitness is the ideal and essential exercise resource for every mother-to-be.
