24.01.2022 This is an important topic because many women are unsure if they can even exercise while pregnant! Those who are not already physically active prior to becoming pregnant, can actually be quite frightened to begin exercising because they're concerned about injuring themselves and harming their baby The truth of the matter is that exercise will actually drastically improve both mum and bubs well-being by improving: The mother's energy levels, Stabilising mood, and... Increasing physical strength, These all allow her to care for her baby. Babies prams and all the other gear that come with them can actually be really heavy! So it's important that you're strong enough in preparation to lift, and move, these regularly Being fit and active throughout pregnancy will also reduces the risk of complications, such as: - Gestational diabetes - Pre-eclampsia - Incontinence - Lower back pain - As well as promoting faster recovery after labour. If you have a friend or family member who is expecting, tag them below so Georgia can continue to educate them on how they can exercise safely throughout pregnancy Georgia will be running a Womens Health Exercise class with a speciality around pregnancy.

09.01.2022 Physical inactivity is a serious problem in Australian children and adolescents. Children should be moving for at least 60 minutes a day, yet less than 23% are undertaking this recommendation. Physical activity offers our children a wide range of important developmental benefits, and when adopted early in life, it also increases the chances of maintaining an active lifestyle into adulthood.... It can also have a significant impact on helping reduce childhood obesity, diabetes and a variety of other chronic diseases. To help inform parents, carers, coaches and teachers, we've developed a NEW eBook: Exercise for Kids! It covers why exercise is important, physical activity guidelines for Aussie children, exercise for a range of conditions, the importance of sport and much more! It's FREE to download: bit.ly/ExerciseforKidsdownload #ExerciseRight

03.01.2022 Following on from our previous video on the importance of exercise during pregnancy, these four easy exercises can be done at any stage of pregnancy! The best thing about them is that they can done by anyone, regardless of your fitness prior to becoming pregnancy. The goals of exercise during pregnancy are: 1. increase strength to help you lift your child out of the cot and car seat, plus prams can be heavy !... 2. Improve abdominal strength to reduce the amount of lower back pain you experience and support your spine as the baby grows 3. Increase the strength of the pelvic floor to reduce the risk of incontinence or prolapse after birth It is also super important to make sure you keep active as pregnancy increases the stress on your cardiovascular system. The best ways to keep active are walking , cycling and swimming . Click on the link to get a guide on these exercises sent straight to you!
