INEXACT SCIENCE OF DRUGS

  • Sady was originally on the show a few years ago.
  • At the time, she worked for a company that made machinery for junk food companies.
  • She and Vinnie have done 3 phone consults.
    • They’re very helpful.
  • This time, she called him because she is pregnant and wanted to know how to stay healthy.
    • To get pregnant, it was a long process and involved a lot of drugs.
      • They even gave her drugs she didn’t really need.
  • Sady considered adopting seriously, but wanted to see if this would work.
    • She had been trying to have a child for 10 years. Now, she’s pregnant with twins.

PREGNANCY AND EXERCISE

  • Vinnie has trained many pregnant women.
  • For most women, exercise is okay for quite some time.
  • But many doctors define exercise and the like differently.
  • First, Vinnie is not a doctor. But, he does have personal opinions, not medical advice.
  • Over his career, he’s probably seen around 35 pregnancies where his clients have continued exercising.
    • The workout changes as you get closer to the due date.
  • In the first trimester, your exercise will look pretty much the same.
    • The grunting, though, should maybe go to the wayside.
      • Lessen your squat weight.
  • Cutting down to Zone 1.5 is a good thing when pregnant, especially after the first trimester.
    • This is mostly slower walks and light weights.
  • In the third trimester, cut it down a LOT. Go slow!
