Any 3rd tri ladies still working out?


If yes, how often and what are you doing?
I've been active a few times a week. I do my prenatal DVD (cardio and light weights and an exercise band), yoga and intense hiking.
It's becoming quite a challenge to stay motivated. Just curious about you ladies.

I just started working out because the snow and ice is finally melting!! (I hate indoor exercising) I haven't seen pavement in 7 months!! I've been walking about 2.5-5 miles per day, walking before and after work
I exercise a lot in the summer, but am totally worthless in the winter!

Yes, I do water aerobics 1-2 times a week, and walk probably 1.5-2 miles everyday going to and from work, but broken up into .5 mi chunks.

I am so tired these days but I often find that I feel great after water aerobics even though I was tired before it. Helps me sleep better at night too!!

Yes, my parents own an athletic club, so it's been easy for me. I usually go about 3-4 days a week doing the eliptical, stair stepper, and treadmill. About once a week I throw in a Zumba class too. I love working out, but lately I have been getting hotter, faster.

Good job! Even at 37 weeks?? You're doing great
I went hiking uphill today and I was so out of breath. Geeez. It drives me crazy because I've always been active and in shape.

The secret....I never stopped, I took it down a notch, but I haven't taken off more than a week.

Yes. Up until this week I've been running 20 miles per week (over 4 or 5 days) but have had to slow down (against my will) due to SPD. So am now doing two runs per week plus gym and a spinning class. Am going to try and keep going for as long as possible. If it wasn't for the SPD I would still be running 20-25 miles/week as cardio wise I feel fine. It's SO annoying!!!

I wish, the SPD and throwing up stops me being able to walk lol although a couple of weeks ago I managed a nice 2km walk which was good and helped me sleep that night.

I've been very physically active still... my job is rather physically demanding, so while I've managed to alter some of the duties to avoid super heavy lifting it usually means walking back and forth more often to make more trips, which evens out the 'exercise' portion of it considerably so that I'm not really making it any less strenuous just less dangerous for my body.

I am however glad that I'm moving in 2.5 weeks because I'm really beginning to feel the discomforts of third tri begin to set in periodically. Today I have sore feet, sore back, sore leg and sore hips... :\
