It’s no secret that exercise is good for us.

But here is the thing not a lot of people are out there saying but I am SURE you are probably feeling or thinking.

How the *EFF* do you exercise when trying to conceive or during early pregnancy?

And that is keeping people stuck.

Because so many women aren’t sure how to do it safely, they err on the side of caution and don’t do anything, which isn’t ideal. Then we have another group of women who are potentially over-doing it, which also isn’t ideal.

So in this podcast episode, I’m sharing my fast and furious tips on how to exercise during that preconception window when you might be wondering if, when and how you should be exercising; as well as how to exercise safely during early pregnancy and the first trimester.

Here’s What We’re Talking About:

• Exercise, Body Fat and Hormone Balance
• High Body Fat & Inactivity
• Low Body Fat & Excessive Exercise
• Stress, The Adrenals and Your Fertility
• Adapting Exercise to Honour Your Menstrual Cycle
• Safe Exercise During Pregnancy
• Exercise During the First Trimester
