Can I exercise while I'm trying to conceive
Yes, moderate regular movement is usually recommended while you're trying to conceive — it supports your body, your sleep and your mood.
One thing to keep in mind: exhausting workouts on top of a harsh calorie deficit aren't helping your body right now. Medium intensity a few times a week beats going all out and then doing nothing for two weeks.
The schedule for this stage leans on gentle strength work, pelvic mobility, the back and breathing.
If you have gynecological or other diagnoses, agree the amount of load with your doctor — their advice matters more than any schedule.
