Strength training during pregnancy isn’t just about staying active or strong…
It can directly influence your baby’s development during pregnancy AND as they grow 🤍⬇️

✨ Nervous system development:
Babies born to moms who exercise during pregnancy tend to show more mature autonomic nervous system function after birth. This includes improved heart rate variability and better stress regulation — which plays a role in sleep, emotional regulation, and overall resilience as they grow.

✨ Placental efficiency + oxygen delivery:
Strength training improves maternal blood flow and vascular health, which supports a more efficient placenta. A healthier placenta means better oxygen and nutrient delivery — influencing baby’s cardiovascular and metabolic development beyond the womb.

✨ Healthier body composition later in childhood:
Maternal exercise is associated with improved insulin sensitivity and healthier fat-to-lean mass ratios in children. This can lower the risk of excess fat mass and metabolic dysfunction as kids grow🤯

✨ Epigenetic influence:
Exercise during pregnancy can influence epigenetic markers related to metabolism, inflammation, and stress response. This doesn’t change DNA — it changes how genes are expressed and used, potentially impacting long-term health outcomes - this really had me 🤯🤯when I read about this 8 years ago

✨ Brain development + cognition:
Emerging research links prenatal exercise to improved neurodevelopment, attention, executive function, and learning capacity in childhood. This is thought to be related to healthier nervous system maturation, increased cerebral blood flow, and higher levels of brain-supportive growth factors.

This doesn’t mean pushing harder or ignoring your changing body!!
It means intentional strength training with alignment, breath, and pressure management — supporting BOTH mom and baby.

This is exactly why I teach what I teach.
Not just for pregnancy… but for the long game - and not just for mama but for baby too🤍
