Pon en marcha el temporizador cuando empieces, y no olvides registrar tu ejercicio una vez hayas terminado.

Este es el comienzo de la vigésimo séptima semana de entrenamientos programados en los Entrenamientos para Embarazadas Principiantes BumptUp.

El entrenamiento de hoy incluye movimientos que deberían resultarte familiares de entrenamientos anteriores. La descripción de cada ejercicio se ha enlazado para obtener más información y consejos sobre cómo realizar el movimiento correctamente. El tiempo de entrenamiento seguirá siendo el mismo, pero intenta desafiarte a ti misma aumentando las repeticiones. Haz las modificaciones necesarias, ya que tu embarazo está más avanzado.

Here is a link to a 5 minute dynamic stretching warmup! The warm up is critical to make the most of your workout. Prepare your body to move at its best with a series of activation exercises before we move into our working sets.

  • Bend the knees to lower your hips to the ground, until knees are bent at approx. 90 degrees, thighs parallel to the floor.
  • Keep the chest up tall, and avoid putting your hands on you legs for support.

Muscle Groups: quads, hamstrings, hip stabilizers

https://vimeo.com/forerunnerbg/review/845995705/3376318fab

  • to increase difficulty: raise the heels off the ground and hold the same squat position, pressing into the ground with only the ball of the foot.

2. Glute Bridge

10 reps

  • Start lying flat on your back, with knees bent and feet planted in the floor near your hips. Push through your heels, raising your hips in the air.
  • Think about squeezing your glutes and hamstrings at the top, holding for 1-2 seconds
  • to increase difficulty: elevate your feet on a chair or couch, keep the core tight as your raise your hips higher into the air

Muscle Groups: glutes, hamstrings, hip stabilizers

3. Scissor Hops

10 reps each

  • Start in a split stance, with one foot slightly in front of the other.
  • With each small jump, switch your feet.
  • Knees should stay almost straight, and hops should be about as small as if you were jump roping.

4. Beginner Pushup

5-10 reps

  • Use a chair, couch, bench, box or even a wall to elevate the hands. Kneeling on the ground facing the box (or other surface), place the hands about shoulder width apart.
  • Bend the elbows until the chest lowers to the edge of the box, controlling the tempo throughout the movement.
  • Elbows should stay tight to the sides of the body

to increase difficulty: change from a kneeling start position to a tall-plank start position, with the elbows and knees straight.

  • raising the elevation of the hands will decrease the difficulty of the movement
  • Focus on the form! Ensure you are maximizing the effectivness of the exercise by keeping the core tight, neutral spine, and elbows in tight!

5. Primal Pushup

20-30 seconds

  • Begin on all fours, with knees bent and back flat. Arms should be straight, with hands directly under the shoulders.
  • Keep the core tight, and press though the toes to lift your knees off the ground. This should feel slightly easier than a traditional plank, with some of the pressure being directed through the quads.
  • Isometrically hold this position. This is targeting your core and quad muscle groups!

Focus on the Form! Keep the back flat with the knees as close the the ground as possible.

6. Calf Raises

10 reps

  • Pushup through your toes to raise your heels off the ground.
  • Use a wall for balance if needed, or try standing on a stair step with the heels hanging off the edge. The increased range of motion will increase difficulty!

Focus on the form! Isolate the top of the movement, holding for at least 1 second to ensure your are reaching the maximum range of motion!

7. Supine Toe Touches

10 reps

  • Lie flat on your back with feet in the air and legs straight.
  • Use the core muscles to reach up and touch your toes, lifting the shoulders and upper back off the ground.

Focus on the form! Keep the legs straight and perpendicular to the floor.

8. Hip Flexor March

10 reps each side

  • Find a wall or couch to support your hands, while your feet are positioned about 3 feet out from the wall.
  • Lift one knee in the air, bent at 90 degrees. Lower it back to the ground, and then repeat on the opposite side as if you are marching.
  • Hold at the top for 1-2 seconds for each rep.

Focus on the form! Avoid rotating the shoulders or hips to compensate. The exercise will help build important stabilizing muscles.

  1. Wall Sit

20-30 seconds

  • Like sitting in a chair that isn’t there! Find a sturdy, flat wall to serve as the back of your (non-existant) chair.
  • Bend the knees to lower your hips to the ground, until knees are bent at approx. 90 degrees, thighs parallel to the floor.
  • Keep the chest up tall, and avoid putting your hands on you legs for support.

Muscle Groups: quads, hamstrings, hip stabilizers

  • to increase difficulty: raise the heels off the ground and hold the same squat position, pressing into the ground with only the ball of the foot.

2. Glute Bridge

10 reps

  • Start lying flat on your back, with knees bent and feet planted in the floor near your hips. Push through your heels, raising your hips in the air.
  • Think about squeezing your glutes and hamstrings at the top, holding for 1-2 seconds
  • to increase difficulty: elevate your feet on a chair or couch, keep the core tight as your raise your hips higher into the air

Muscle Groups: glutes, hamstrings, hip stabilizers

3. Scissor Hops

10 reps each

  • Start in a split stance, with one foot slightly in front of the other.
  • With each small jump, switch your feet.
  • Knees should stay almost straight, and hops should be about as small as if you were jump roping.

4. Beginner Pushup

5-10 reps

  • Use a chair, couch, bench, box or even a wall to elevate the hands. Kneeling on the ground facing the box (or other surface), place the hands about shoulder width apart.
  • Bend the elbows until the chest lowers to the edge of the box, controlling the tempo throughout the movement.
  • Elbows should stay tight to the sides of the body

to increase difficulty: change from a kneeling start position to a tall-plank start position, with the elbows and knees straight.

  • raising the elevation of the hands will decrease the difficulty of the movement
  • Focus on the form! Ensure you are maximizing the effectivness of the exercise by keeping the core tight, neutral spine, and elbows in tight!

5. Primal Pushup

20-30 seconds

  • Begin on all fours, with knees bent and back flat. Arms should be straight, with hands directly under the shoulders.
  • Keep the core tight, and press though the toes to lift your knees off the ground. This should feel slightly easier than a traditional plank, with some of the pressure being directed through the quads.
  • Isometrically hold this position. This is targeting your core and quad muscle groups!

Focus on the Form! Keep the back flat with the knees as close the the ground as possible.

6. Calf Raises

10 reps

  • Pushup through your toes to raise your heels off the ground.
  • Use a wall for balance if needed, or try standing on a stair step with the heels hanging off the edge. The increased range of motion will increase difficulty!

Focus on the form! Isolate the top of the movement, holding for at least 1 second to ensure your are reaching the maximum range of motion!

7. Supine Toe Touches

10 reps

  • Lie flat on your back with feet in the air and legs straight.
  • Use the core muscles to reach up and touch your toes, lifting the shoulders and upper back off the ground.

Focus on the form! Keep the legs straight and perpendicular to the floor.

8. Hip Flexor March

10 reps each side

  • Find a wall or couch to support your hands, while your feet are positioned about 3 feet out from the wall.
  • Lift one knee in the air, bent at 90 degrees. Lower it back to the ground, and then repeat on the opposite side as if you are marching.
  • Hold at the top for 1-2 seconds for each rep.

Focus on the form! Avoid rotating the shoulders or hips to compensate. The exercise will help build important stabilizing muscles.
