Can I continue to train while pregnant? We help Dani Hill-Welter adjust her training plan

--:--
Today on RUN with CoachParry, we chat to one of our members in the CoachParry Online Training Club - Dani Hill-Welter. Dani is in her first trimester of pregnancy and would like to continue to train through her pregnancy. Listen as CoachParry gives Dani some guidelines on how to adjust her training program, specifically the quality sessions and what to avoid during this time. This is a great episode for anyone who is pregnant and wants to continue training. 

Aside from this they also delve into questions around using heart rate during training and physiological testing for endurance sports. Is it worthwhile and valuable for a recreational athlete? 

If you're training for something, we want to hear about it! Share your training story/journey/pb with us on any of the socials using #BiogenJourney and you could win 3 months free access to the CoachParry Online Training Platform. This weeks winner is William Barrett (not Warren-apologies for that!) (Instagram handle: @wgbarrett). Welcome to the team William, looking forward to helping you achieve those goals!
