Recently, the Beijing Winter Olympics event can be described as in full swing, our "frog princess" Gu Ailing won the championship in the freestyle ski women's big jump event, winning the first gold in the Chinese women's snow event.
The news was heartening, the story of the Olympic champion's training was unearthed, and many of us fell in love with this excellent and hard-working girl.
In order to better interact with the Olympic champions, many people went to the ski resort to experience the joy of skiing. These people also include a lot of expectant mothers who are planning to get pregnant, and they yearn for it at the same time, they also have a faint doubt, can you do these exercises during pregnancy?
The answer is yes.
Not only can we do exercise, but even we encourage more exercise.
In most people's cognition, exercise can reduce the incidence of cardiovascular disease and metabolic diseases. But what many people don't know is that exercise actually has many benefits for pregnancy preparation.
A prospective study in Australia found that women with low activity were more likely to have fertility problems than women with high activity.
Studies have found that overweight or obese women have a higher risk of infertility than women with a normal BMI. Therefore, for pregnant sisters with a BMI greater than 24, weight loss is the first priority. The method of weight loss, as we all know: keep your mouth shut and open your legs, that is, eat less and exercise more.
At this time, some sisters may say, "Obesity will increase the risk of infertility, I know, but I am not fat, exercise should not help my pregnancy, right?" ”
The study also found that for women with a normal BMI, increasing exercise also reduced their risk of infertility, so exercise was beneficial for the entire pregnancy-trying population.
So for women who are trying to conceive, what kind of exercise is appropriate?
The study found that maintaining more than 150 minutes of moderate intensity exercise or more than 75 minutes of high-intensity exercise per week would have a positive effect on pregnancy.
"Trivia" moderate-intensity exercises include brisk walking, housework, walking the dog, dancing (slow-paced dance), and carrying medium-weight objects. High-intensity sports include running, balls, mountain climbing, fast swimming, cycling and our snow sports.
So, get moving, Jimei! Sportsmanship is not only higher, faster and stronger in our place! And better to get pregnant!
