Taking your training down a few notches doesn’t mean sacrificing fitness.
There can be many reasons why we decide to slow our training down through life, and if you are trying to conceive, it could be an opportunity to change the pace of your workouts. Sometimes that can be hard to take, especially if you are an active person who really likes intense workouts. However, variety in workouts is an important part of a lifelong fitness regime.
If you are used to a higher intensity workout, or a circuit which will automatically increase your heart rate, and you want to slow it down, look at doing more straight sets where you control the elevated heart rate by taking rests after each exercise, and stick with the one exercise until you have completed the entire set.
Straight sets can be a great way to still really work the muscle. Really focus on the muscles you are using and concentrate on good form.
