  1. Glute Bridge March

10 reps each side

Start on your back with knees bent, feet flat on the floor.

Press through your heels to raise your hips, performing a glute bridge. From here, lift one foot off the ground, bringing your knee towards your chest.

Lower the foot, and do the same on the opposite side, just like a march.

Squeeze your glutes to keep your hips in the air for the entirety of the reps.

2. Goblet Squat

10 reps

Stand with feet just wider than shoulder width, hands positioned at the chest. Bend your knees and sit your hips back, just like sitting in a chair.

Keep your chest tall. Hold at the bottom of the squat for 1-2 seconds, and then stand all the way back up.

Use a countertop of chair for support if needed. Add weight by holding an object in the center of your chest.

3. Jumping Jacks

10-20 reps

  • Stand straight up with your feet together and arms at your sides. Jump up, spreading your legs to the sides while simultaneously raising your arms out to the sies and overhead.
  • Jump again, this time bringing your feet back together and lowering your arms. Repeat for the required repitions in a fluid motion.

Modification: For a lower impact version, take out the jumping. Alternate Steping one foot out to the side, while bringing your arms up above your head. When you lower your arms back down, bring your feet back together. Repeat on both sides

4. Alternating Shoulder Press

10 reps each side

  • Start by sitting with your feet shoulder-width apart and your core engaged.
  • Hold a small weight in each hand at shoulder level, with your palms facing forward and your elbows bent. Push one arm up, while keeping your palms facing forward.
    • Modification: of keeping your palm facing forward is uncomfortable, rotate your palms so that they are facing in towards each other while still holding the weight.
  • Slowly lower the weight back down to the starting position by bending your elbow and bringing the weights back to shoulder level.
  • Alternate completing reps on your right and left sides.

5. Modified Elbow Plank

30 seconds

Lie facedown with your forearms on the floor and your hands clasped.
Extend your legs behind you and rise up onto your toes.
Keeping your back straight, tighten your core and hold the position

Modification: To make the position easier to hold, bend your knees so that they are touching the floor. Focus on keeping your core engaged.

Modification: if you are further along in your pregnancy, place your elbows on a couch or elevated surface to make room for your belly.

6. Good Morning

10 reps

This exercise is very similar to an RDL (Romanian Deadlift), as they both involve a great stretch of the hamstrings.

  • Position your hands behind your head, and push your hips stright back. Keep your knees almost straight, and back flat.
  • Go down until you feel a stretch your hamstrings, and then squeeze your glutes to extend your hips on the way back up.

7. Quad Extension

10 reps each side

  • Sit in a chair or on the edge of a couch with your feet on the floor or dangling off the edge.
  • Straighten one leg, locking out your knee at the top. Think about squeezing all the muscles on the front of your thigh.
  • Control the movement to lower your foot back to the floor, then repeat on the opposite side.

8. 90/90 Hip Rotations to Kneel

10 reps total (5 each side)

  • Sit on the ground in a 90/90 position, with one knee bent in front of your body, and the opposite knee bend behind your body
  • Lift your hips off the ground into a kneeling position, squeezing your glutes at the top, and then sit back down into the 90/90 starting position
  • Keep your feet on the ground and bring your knees up. Rotate your body so the opposite leg is not in front, creating the 90/90 position on the opposite side
  • Again, lift your hips into the air to reach a kneeling position, squeezing your glutes at the top before returning back to the ground in a 90/90.

  • Push off using only the foot on the stair, letting the opposite foot come off the ground to meet at the height of the box. Control the movement back down, letting the same foot return to the ground.
  • Complete all 10 reps on one side before switching to the opposite side.

2. Seated Strict Press

10 reps

Begin by sitting on the ground with your legs out in front of you.

Modification: If sitting with legs straight out in front causes low blood pressure, bend knees and place feet flat on ground or sit with legs crossed

  • Grab two dumbbells and make a goalpost shape with your arms

Modification: Turn palms to face each other if pressing overhead with hands facing forward is uncomfortable

3. Box Squat

10 reps

  • Stand directly in front of the corner of a chair or couch. Widen your feet just outside your shoulders.
  • Sit your hips back and bend your knees to squat to the chair or surface. Your butt should lightly touch the seat (not actucally sitting down!) in a controlled motion, and then stand back up.
  • Think about sitting on a balloon!
  • Stand all the way up to finish the rep. Squeeze your glutes at the top.

Modification: If you cannot squat all the way to the chair, try squatting half way down, and then stand up.

4. Good Morning

10 reps

  • This exercise is very similar to an RDL (Romanian Deadlift), as they both involve a great stretch of the hamstrings (back side of your thigh).
  • Position your hands behind your head, and push your hips straight back. Keep your knees almost straight, and back flat. Go down until you feel a stretch your hamstrings, and then squeeze your glutes (butt) to extend your hips on the way back up

5. One Arm Bent Over Row

10 reps each side

  • Stand with one foot slightly in front of the other. The side that is holding the weight should be the back foot.
  • Raise the left arm, bending at the elbow and lifting the elbow to the ceiling.
  • Pull the weight to about hip level, and then lower the weight so that your arm is completly straight again
    • Tip: Try to keep your shoulders even, and avoid rotating to one side or the other

6. Seated Hip Flexor March

10 reps each side

  • Sit on the ground with legs straight out in front of you.
  • Lift one foot off the ground as far as you can using your quads and hip flexor muscles. Return it back to the ground, and repeat on the opposite side.
  • To make the exercise easier, Support your back on a wall or bottom of the couch.
  • Modification: Sitting in a chair, lift one thigh up while keeping the knee bent, and opposite foot on the floor. Lower it back to the ground, and then lift the opposite leg up.

7. Lateral Leg Raise (Standing Hip Abduction)

10 reps each side

  • Stand with one hand resting on a sturdy chair for balance.
  • Lift the outside leg away from the body, keeping your torso straight as you lift.
  • Slowly lower it to the starting position. Complete 10 reps on one side before switching sides.
  • Your ABductor muscles are those that lift your leg away from your body. Think about using your gluteal muscles as well as the outside of your thigh.
