Fitness expert to help mums-to-be with exercise

A pregnant fitness expert will be helping mums-to-be by documenting her battle to keep her gym shoes on and keep exercising.

At 19 weeks pregnant, Vicky Warr, a specialist in women's fitness and weight loss, is endeavouring to keep her trainers on, whether they be from Merrell, Ecco or Hi-Tec.

In documenting her own activities she is endeavouring to show pregnant women that becoming pregnant does not necessarily mean they do not have to stay in shape.

Speaking to Bounty.com, Vicky said: "While I know that weight gain in pregnancy is natural and inevitable, letting myself go completely might mean losing my job!"

She said it would be great to have a "pert bum" on top of athletic body, rather than "an expanding" bum.

"Pregnancy is not an illness and there's plenty women can do as the birth approaches to keep active, eat well and stay in shape," Ms Warr concluded.

If you are a mum-to-be who wishes to follow Vicky's example by keeping fit during a pregnancy then you will need suitable footwear.

Exercise shoes from the likes of Merrell, Keen and Ecco are available here from Fitness Footwear.
