CrossFit Moms Practice Fitness During Pregnancy

June 26, 2016

Nationwide, women are fighting the stigma associated with working out through their pregnancy and postpartum. For previous generations, staying active while pregnant was often frowned upon, states Kirk Kreifels, who graduated with an exercise science degree from the University of Nebraska-Omaha. “It’s not only safe, but it actually helps women in their pregnancy,” he says. That’s not to say women don’t adjust their routines as their bellies grow.
