Can I exercise during pregnancy?
In most cases, yes. If you’ve had a healthy pregnancy and your healthcare provider hasn’t advised otherwise, staying active is not only safe, it’s really beneficial for you and baby.
Our workouts are designed specifically for pregnancy, with guidance to help you move safely and confidently.
I didn’t exercise before… is it too late to start?
Not at all. This is one of the best times to begin.
You can start gently, build confidence, and focus on movement that supports your body rather than pushes it too far.
If you’re unsure where to begin, contact support@rwl.fitness or send a DM to RWL via the envelope on the app.
How often should I be working out?
There’s no “perfect” number.
For most women, aiming for 2–4 sessions per week is a great place to start.
Some weeks might be more, some less and that’s completely okay.
Consistency is far more important than perfection.
What if I feel tired or unwell?
Listen to your body always.
Some days a full workout might feel great, other days a stretch or short walk is enough.
Inside the app you’ll find:
- Short workouts
- Lower intensity options
- Mobility and stretch sessions
Everything counts.
Can I do workouts from other sections of the app?
During pregnancy, we recommend sticking to the pregnancy-specific section, as these workouts are designed with safety, positioning and modifications in mind.
What if something doesn’t feel right?
Stop and check in with your body.
If anything feels uncomfortable, painful, or just “off”, pause the workout.
And if you’re unsure:
Message our team anytime
Or speak to your healthcare provider
You’re never on your own with this.
I’ve heard about pelvic floor… do I need to do anything?
Yes but don’t worry, we guide you through it.
Our workouts include:
- Pelvic floor awareness
- Core connection work
- Safe breathing techniques
These all support your body during pregnancy and recovery after.
I have pelvic pain / SPD — can I still work out?
Yes, with the right approach.
We have a dedicated SPD-friendly section to help you stay active safely.
Focus on:
- Controlled movements
- Stability work
- Avoiding anything that aggravates symptoms
How long are the workouts?
Most workouts are designed to fit into real life:
- Around 20–30 minutes
- With shorter options available when you need them
Even 10 minutes is a win.
Do I need equipment?
Not always.
Many workouts are:
- Bodyweight
- Low impact
Some use light weights, but you can always modify based on what you have.
What happens after I have my baby?
We’ve got you covered 💛
Inside the app you’ll find a postnatal section to help you safely rebuild strength, reconnect with your core and ease back into exercise.
I’m not sure I’m doing this right?
This is completely normal.
Pregnancy can feel overwhelming, especially with so much information out there.
That’s why we’re here.

đź’› Final reminder
You don’t need to do everything perfectly.
You just need to start, go gently, and keep showing up in a way that feels right for you.
