Learning OutomeDescribe 3 factors that can promote a healthy pregnancy.
GoalExercise is a factor that can help to promote a healthy pregnancy. Exercise helps everyone to stay healthy. During pregnancy, exercise should remain a daily routine. Some women, however, do not follow a regular exercise routine. As one of this week’s activities, you will develop an exercise class/program/routine for a woman who exercised regularly prior to pregnancy OR for those women who were more sedentary. You will also include safety considerations.
GuidelinesDevelop a prenatal class/program/routine for a pregnant woman. Include the following components:
discuss the importance of exercise during pregnancy
which trimester will you focus on? 1st? 2nd? 3rd?
what modality will you use to teach your class? Face-to-face? Online? an APP? an exercise group? etc. (you may pretend we are not sheltering-in-place or you may take that into consideration)
