Evgeniya Polischuk (Fedutinova) instagram:@evgeniyafedutinovavk.com/janeshomebaking– It all started with baking for family and friends.

What's happening

From the third month of pregnancy, asas the belly increases in size, the balance of body weight will shift every day. These changes, as a rule, slowly but surely change the posture: the body forward. To balance this pull, the lower back bends - hyperlordosis is formed. To balance this change and maintain stability, the neck goes forward, hunching the thoracic spine. In order to systematically search for and find a new balance of body weight and on its basis build a new beautiful and slender posture (despite the growing "burden"), special exercises and the help of specialists are needed. What type of activity to choose and which specialists to contact?

Choosing gymnastics

First, let's decide what kind of activity we needis necessary to maintain a healthy posture and prevent back pain. Here are some of the main characteristics. Emphasis on relaxation. Even if you were passionate about fitness before pregnancy, when you are expecting a baby, you will have to reduce your activity by a third and be sure to add exercises that will cultivate relaxation. It is against the background of relaxation that flexibility develops, which will allow the body to easily and smoothly transform to new conditions.Photo:GettyThis could be one of the areas of yoga therapy, Pilates or a special course "Youth and Health of the Spine" aimed at adapting the spine to new tasks. As simple as possible. Choose gymnastics with such a characteristic. After all, you will need to do it throughout your pregnancy - even when you are very lazy, tired and want to lie down. The secret to the success of any gymnastics is regularity. I recommend that my students do 15 minutes a day (you can always find 15 minutes, even if you are very, very pregnant!). What can be done in any room. Master exercises that can be done anywhere in the world and for which no more than 2 square meters of space are required. In this way, you will maintain a workout routine at home, in the country, and (if suddenly!) in the hospital, and on vacation in the Canaries.
