Meet Woman Who Lifts Weight While Expecting Twins

A mum seems to have taken her desire to keep fit during pregnancy to the extreme as she continues lifting weights  while expecting twins.

Sophie Guidolin, a personal trainer from Australia, has shared snaps from her awe-inspiring workouts as she shows off her growing baby bump. 26-weeks pregnant, Sophie continues to 65-pound weights in her local gym.

She told the Mail Online: “To me, that’s not a heavy weight. It all comes down to what’s heavy for the individual and what they could lift prior to pregnancy. The pros of exercising during pregnancy definitely outweigh the cons. I really hope that pregnant women understand the benefits of exercising and a healthy lifestyle while pregnant.”

Before any pregnant ladies hit the weights section, Sophie warns that she carefully monitors her heart rate and has reduced her usual number of weights.
