Intensive workouts during TWW

[kj1]

Does anyone know if it’s safe to continue with intensive workouts during the TWW? E.g. weight lighting, body pump, bootcamp classes etc. I spoke to my PT who said it was perfectly safe but have read some conflicting articles online.

I think its fine but did read somewhere that intensive exercise in men can affect sperm production....altho this was not on a nhs website. As long as you are keeping well hydrated ylu should be fine X

Was wondering that too! I like to do a couple really intense workouts per week, as well as a couple "normal" but not killer ones. I have a friend who is training for a marathon and her LP is short and she thinks the training may be why. I'm also wondering if I should take it back a step in my TWW, but it seems like it's ok. My doc said once I'm pregnant to take my workouts back by 25% as the body needs energy and strength to grow the little bean.

The month I got caught I was doing boxing and spinning most days and my oh does weights and is a a fitness fan so it was ok for us xx

Great, thanks guys! I only rejoined the gym a couple of weeks ago after 6 months off so thought perhaps the sudden change in the amount of exercise I've been doing could have a negative effect on my chance of conceiving/implanting etc. Will push through as usual! x
