Should you CrossFit while pregnant? The answer is simple really! Have you been doing CrossFit on a regular basis for the past year? If yes then go ahead, if no, then stay moving but don't increase your intensity from what it has been over the last year.
If you will be doing CrossFit during your pregnancy you should constantly monitor your heart rate and not push towards maxes on lifts. At any moment during your workout you should be able to hold a conversation, if you don't think you can or feel your heart racing, then take a break. Breath, grab some water and then go back to working out. During you pregnancy it's about maintaining your fitness and health, not getting PRs!

There are some movements such as sit ups, and jumping on boxes that should be avoided, but talk to your doctor and be sure they know exactly what you are doing. Also be sure to tell your coach when you find out you are pregnant. Your safety and well being are number one to us, and this information is absolutely necessary for our staff to know.
We've had many Coast Range babies born since we opened are doors and love that as more and more are on their way, our moms trust our coaching staff with their health and wellness!
