Effects of Exercise During Gestation on Maternal and Foetal Health

The exercise intervention will be performed in two groups so that each group will have 12-13 participants.The groups will train 3 days/week (60min per session) from the 16th week of gestation until delivery. The exercise intervention group will go through different phases of training: a) Learning phase: which will involve the intervention plan, the goals we want to work, and how we will perform it; b) Movement Learning phase: theoretical and practical sessions with the explanation of movements and ergonomic basic patterns; and c) Physical Fitness Training phase: with training sessions aimed at improving fitness and weight loss, and training sessions focused on a correct pelvic mobilization for the delivery.The intensity will be adapted during the exercise program based on the week of gestation and each pregnant heart rate. The sessions will consist of a mixed work, composed of circuits where both muscular and cardiovascular conditioning will be implemented.
