Preggi Bellies have changed the face of fitness for pregnant women. Now you can actively improve your strength, fitness and overall well being throughout your pregnancy, creating a healthier life habit.
Created by physiotherapists and professionally designed for beginner, intermediate and advanced levels, to keep you fit and feeling great through your pregnancy.
Suitable for women of all fitness levels from pre-pregnancy to delivery and post-natal recovery, this exercise program for pregnancy utilises a Swiss Ball* for an all round cardiovascular and strength work out.
Preggi Bellies is the only program incorporating functional training.It is not simply another program where you lift weights and deep breathe. Each exercise has a purpose for not only pregnancy but for labour, delivery and being a new mother.
The makers of the DVD, Preggi Bellies, lead the way by being involved in the latest research and development into exercise in pregnancy. This research has shown that women who are doing weight bearing and cardiovascular exercise at least twice weekly have a:
35% decrease in the need for pain relief during labour
75% decrease incidence of maternal exhaustion
50% decrease in the need to artificially rupture membranes or induce labour
50% decrease in intervention due abnormalities in fetal heart rate
55% decrease in the need for episiotomy
75% decrease in operative intervention
“It is really important to exercise during pregnancy. Preggi bellies was great for me – it was fun, safe and helped me maintain my fitness and mobility” Dr Shelley Rowlands OBGYN.
"My patients love Preggi Bellies. Fitter, stronger, healthier and prepared for labour, my pregnant patients cope better with the demands of pregnancy and childbirth and recover quickly postnatally. I know they are in safe hands - Preggi Bellies are the pregnancy exercise experts." Dr Grant Saffer, Obstetrician, Melbourne Australia.
