Description:
Pilates During Pregnancy with Niece Pecenka - An inpiring Pilates based routine adapted for busy women in all trimesters who want to feel fit, healthy, and fabulous.

Pilates requires you to move consciously - using the breath to revitalize and energize - something you will need to depend on during and after childbirth. Every movement in Pilates emanates from the "center" - helping you focus on those muscles necessary for labor and delivery.

This routine is comprised of two distinct sections to make the most of you time.

Section I - abdominal and breath work = 15 minutes

Section II - side leg series, lower body work = 30 minutes

Sections I and II can be combined for a longer workout depending upon your time and energy level.

You will need a minimum of three blankets, folded and stacked. So Let's Move!



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Needs trimester specific details
I have taken Pilates classes before and also practice yoga on a regular basis. This DVD has a nice challenging lower body section that gives you a good "burn". However, the ab section is completely impractical when you are in your third trimester. She does not offer enough explanation and does not provide trimester specific modifications. You might as well just do a normal Pilates workout, but lean against some pillows. I found this very lacking as a specifically "pregnancy" workout video.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - What a workout!
I really enjoy this workout, however, I find it very challenging. I did Windsor Pilates on dvd before I got pregnant so I am not new to Pilates. This lady is really trying to get the burn in your legs with this one! I have found that if I do the abs and legs together, I can't do the last 5 minutes or so, once she stands from the floor legwork. I'm just too tired! I am in my first trimester so hopefully my energy will get back to normal in a couple of weeks and I'll be able to do it all the way through. ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Disappointing and too difficult
After reading several reviews for different pregnancy exercise DVDs, I decided to purchase this one because I have enjoyed doing pilates (classes and DVD workouts) for a few years now. Even though this is geared toward pregnant women, this is the most difficult pilates workout I have ever tried! The movements in the leg workout are done WAY too fast for me to keep up! The instructor also does not talk you through the movements, which is difficult since you're supposed to be looking down toward your belly, ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wonderful!!
I have done pilates regularly before becoming pregnant and I ordered this video when I was 4 months along and it has been fantastic! The excersises are modified a bit for expectant mothers but they still provide a great workout and the moves are still challenging! I love this video and am excited to use it throughout my pregnancy!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Perfect prenatal workout
I really am enjoying the pilated dvd...it's a great prenatal workout and I feel stronger already. They great thing about it is you can do it all the way through your third trimester, while other dvd's don't give that option. To me it seems like a workout that everyone can do and I know it will help me to have a healthy delivery. Thanks!
