You've peed on the stick, confirmed the inevitable, and now you're ready to embark on the wild rollercoaster of pregnancy. Welcome, fearless explorer of the first trimester!

We're here to help you channel that inner superhero — no capes required! Let's dive into the steps for a vibrant and sweat-worthy journey.
How to Channel Your Inner Superhero Without Bending Your Furniture: The Newbie's Guide to Unstoppable Fitness!
First things first, let's get one thing straight: your body is about to do something miraculous. But that doesn't mean you have to transform into a couch potato. Light to moderate exercise can be the golden ticket to a smoother pregnancy. Whether you're a seasoned gym bunny or the girl who's remembering where her sneakers live, these tips will make sure you keep strutting your stuff while keeping the little one safe.
Step away from the solid chocolate bars — those squats aren't going to do themselves!
Rest, Relax, But Ke
Yes, the first trimester can be a cocktail of exhaustion and queasiness. However, staying active with some simple low-impact exercises like walking, yoga, or swimming can work wonders. Just don't go wild like you're preparing for a marathon. Think of it more as a gentle stroll through a park, with less enthusiasm and more coffee breaks.
Remember, you can have your cake and eat it too — just balance it with some quality plank time.
Avoid the Olympic Lifting ... for Now
When it comes to lifting during your first trimester, light weights and resistance bands are as good as engaging. But you're not competing for the gold medal, darling. You just want to maintain strength and relieve some of that pregnancy back pain. Keep it simmered.
Don't pull any muscles — pulling at heartstrings is far more rewarding.
Surround yourself with good vibes and extend your tribe. Group classes (or a good YouTube workout video) can provide an atmosphere that's energetic and fun! Or, carry on your solo serenades, whatever ties your sweatbands. Plus, sharing this journey with your soon-to-be-new-mom friends might just lead to award-winning pregnancy dance-offs
