One of my favorite #dumbbell #supersets during #pr One of my favorite #dumbbell #supersets during #pregnancy is this:

16x alternate arm #snatches
12x one-arm #shoulderpress left
12x one-arm shoulder press right
40 reps total

I usually do at least 4 rounds of this. Feels great in maintaining my #functional #strength as well as giving me a good #cardio kick πŸ’ͺ❀️
