By offering balance in a pregnant women’s workout, do you think it is increasing intensity?

Hi Ashley,
Balance exercises can create a challenge but challenge and intensity are not necessarily the same thing (please refer to Joanne’s response about intensity).
I agree with Sue; placing balance exercises in a pregnant woman’s program may not be a great idea. Some clients may not have excellent balance to begin with; adding balance exercises when they are pregnant may increase their ‘stress’ more than their intensity!
Keep yourself (and your clients) safe!
