Pregnancy doesn\\u2019t mean putting your fitness on pause. MacKenzie Rowand is a new mom and exercise specialist with 9Round. She has an extensive background in wellness and there\\u2019s a lot to learn from her personal journey with fitness and pregnancy. She continually had to change the way she ate and exercised during all parts of pregnancy and through recovery. Flexibility and meeting yourself where you are is the key to staying fit during pregnancy.

Your wellness during pregnancy is so personal. Don\\u2019t compare yourself to anyone else. Remember that you\\u2019re growing a whole person inside of you and give yourself some grace. What matters is that you get moving.
