POSTURE-CIZE for Pregnancy

Additional weight gain during pregnancy can increase lower back pain and decrease energy. Throw in hunched shoulders while reading the computer screen and the back pain just never seems to go away.

Posture-cize can help you feel better, look better, and function better!

• Strengthen your muscles, especially the back and "core" (stomach, buttocks, thighs)
• Feel more energized
• Open and relax your neck and shoulders
• Open your chest and breathe
• Learn to avoid common posture mistakes that can cause injury
• Have fun!

Research has shown that:
Pregnant women are not accumulating enough physical activity to meet recommendations from the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which advise 30 minutes of moderate activity on most, if not all, days of the week. Beyond the importance for the health of the mother and the baby, staying active and flexible aids in the recovery process of childbirth and also can help with postpartum weight maintenance for the mother (Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, October 2005).
