[quote=Anonymous]Exercise in pregnancy depends on the RPE (rate of perceived exertion). You should be at about 70% RPE in the first two trimesters and down to 50% RPE in the third trimester. FWIW I rucked with 30 pounds until 26 weeks pregnant and lifted over 100 pounds up until I went into labor because that was within the appropriate RPE for me. If you want to learn more about exercising in pregnancy, I’d also there are resources on pelvic floor, diaphragmatic breathing, reducing intrabdominal pressure, etc.[/quote]
