Technique Tip: Keep the Work in your Thighs during Extensions while Pregnant. Throughout pregnancy, your core muscles become progressively stretched out andmay have a harder time engaging throughout the entire workout. Extensions in thigh work target the major movers of the thighs-quadriceps and hamstrings-while also engaging your lower abdominal muscles, chest and back. Avoid lifting your leg so high that you sit back into your hips and put pressure onto your lower back and into your hip flexors. Instead, keep your leg on the lower diagonal to help maintain your focus on contracting the thigh muscles! #purebarre #princeton #fitness #wellness #reformer #pregancyexercise #mercer
