A member asked:
Does squats provide sufficient workout during last trimester of pregnancy? if yes then how many squats should i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not recommended: Squats are not the best exercise during last trimester of pregnancy. I would be concerned about the risk for ligament injury and falls. Walking and swimming would be safer. Check with your OB first.
