FULL Booty & Leg Workout - Second Trimester

Although I was struggling to workout after my threatened miscarriage at 9 weeks, by about 13 weeks I was feeling more myself & had been lifting regularly again for a bout a week or two. This full booty & leg workout is great for anyone , pregnant or not. I have made some modifications to my training with the baby in mind. For instance, while doing hip thrusts placing the weight on my thighs rather than my hips or lower abdomen, lowering the weight for most exercises and only squatting to the range of motion that is comfortable for me. If you are not pregnant ensure you are doing full range squats and you can put a barbell on your hips rather than your thighs.. go heavy! 

The full workout is typed out below the video.
