I’m a little over 6 months pregnant now. My belly is getting bigger which means movements while working out are getting more difficult. However this isn’t stopping me from working out! Workouts are the one thing keeping up my strength and energy for the boys!
Today was a leg workout. 4 sets of 12! 💪🏻

Shoulder workout time! Ryder is getting bigger by the day so I have to keep my upper body strong! That boy loves to be cuddled and held. 😉
These are a few exercises I’ve worked into my shoulder workouts for the next 6 weeks.
🔹Single arm cable pulldown
🔹Shoulder press
🔹Front press
🔹Lateral raise
None of these are too terribly difficult but they do require gym equipment.
Happy lifting!

No gym or not able to make it to the gym? Here’s a few easy leg exercises you can do at home. They require no equipment, just yourself!
🔹Leg Raises
🔹Donkey Kicks
🔹Side Leg Raises
🔹Laying Down Leg Raises
🔹Inner Thigh Raise
I do each of these 4x 15-18!
Leg day! My favorite day! I’ve changed up my leg workouts again. I’ve said it before, I always change my workouts every 6 weeks. This keeps my body from getting “used” to a workout and it keeps me from feeling like I’m on repeat. These exercises aren’t too difficult and you can do them at home or in the gym. The first two actually workout your upper body and lower body together!
✴️ Side squats with medicine ball
✴️ Sumo squats with kettle bell raise
✴️ Squat turns
I try to do each one 10-12 times. Depending on the medicine ball I use for side squats, sometimes I can only manage 8-10 with the extra weight.
Happy squatting! 💪🏻
This is one of my favorite exercises to do on arm days. It not only works your arms but also your core, butt and legs. Not to mention it builds stability. It’s a little difficult and does take a bit balance so be careful if it’s your first time trying.
Get in a pushup position and put one foot on the ball at a time. Find your balance then raise your hips and pull your knees in to your chest. I typically do 4 x 15. That alone gets my arms and abs burning. 💪🏻
