Exercise guidelines
Exercise at least three times a week is preferable to intermittent activity. Competitive activities should be discouraged. However, in the case of a professional or elite athlete who is already accustomed to training at a high heart rate, it is probable that the pregnant athlete may be able to continue to exercise above the 140 heart rate limit recommended for the general pregnant population. It should be noted that rare cardiovascular complications can also occur in athletes. As a result, warning signs include the appearance of palpations and tachycardia during rest.
