Nicole Stuart FullSizeRender 3 Pilates Exercises Kate Hudson Is Doing During Her Pregnancy  Back in April, Kate Hudson announced that she is expecting her third child. At the time, she let fans in on how she was feeling: “If you’ve wondered why I’ve been so absent on my social channels it’s because I have never been more sick! It was the most sick first trimester of all my children.” Less than two months later, it’s great to see that Hudson is out and about—and back in the gym again. Her longtime trainer Nicole Stuart, Pilates instructor and creator of the QE2 app, shared a photo on Instagram of Hudson, belly out, holding a set of dumbbells.
It’s pretty well known that Hudson is a Pilates fanatic. She has been practicing it regularly for years, and is continuing to do so during her pregnancy, though Stuart tells SELF, “She’s taking it easier and really slowing things down to a more moderate pace.”
Doing Pilates during pregnancy can actually be really beneficial.
The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) encourages exercising during pregnancy, saying that if you’re healthy and your pregnancy is normal, it’s safe to exercise, and actually has lots of benefits. They suggest various forms like walking, swimming, stationary biking, and modified versions of yoga and Pilates. The organization really only advises against contact sports and activities with a high risk of falling. Otherwise (and as long as your doctor hasn’t given you special instructions), you can stick with your regular workout routine.
