Pregnancy FAQ
We recommend continuing with a regular subscription plan through your first trimester, as long as you are able and have consent from your health care provider to continue exercise. As first trimester is widely different for each woman, we recommend modifying the workouts to what feels most comfortable for you during those first 12 weeks. If any of the workouts are causing any vaginal bleeding, regular painful contractions, amniotic fluid leakage, dizziness, dyspnea before exertion, chest pain, headaches, muscle weakness, or any other discomfort/pain, stop and consult your health care provider immediately.
We recommend beginning and transitioning to the pregnancy program subscription at 13 weeks pregnant with approval from your health care provider. The pregnancy guide covers weeks 13-40 of pregnancy, leaving the first trimester a flexible time for you to listen to your body and do what feels most comfortable to you. To update your subscription to the pregnancy guide, navigate to the menu dropdown in the upper left corner of the app and click on “Manage My Account,” then “Change/Cancel Plan.” Select “Pregnancy Guide” and follow the prompts. After subscribing to the pregnancy guide, your workouts will match up with your corresponding week of pregnancy and guide you each week all the way through delivery.

Exercising during pregnancy can yield incredible benefits for both mother and baby. The goals of the WILMA app pregnancy guide are to help a woman maintain strength, mobility and cardiovascular health; to move in safe ways that optimize posture and alignment; to prepare the body for labor, delivery, and recovery; and to connect with and train the deep core and strengthen optimal function of the pelvic floor. The workouts are designed to help in these four areas, and are modifiable for any fitness level.
With the gym pregnancy guide, you will be receiving five new hour-long gym workouts each week giving you a total body split. You'll retaining access to the previous two weeks’ worth of workouts as well. With the at-home pregnancy guide, you will be receiving five new 20-40 minute workouts each week, while retaining access to the previous two weeks’ worth of workouts as well. This program will ensure you always have access to a variety of workouts to choose from and repeat each week, with new workouts coming
If there are workouts you absolutely love, you can always add them to your “Saved Workouts” to do again and again. All workouts in the WILMA app have been designed to stay fun, dynamic, and keep you motivated.
After week 40 of the pregnancy guide subscription, your subscription and payments will continue until you cancel or change your subscription. You'll continue to have access to the Postpartum Guide in the upper left-hand drop-down menu of the app under "Additional Videos" that we recommend you begin as soon as you feel comfortable. This guide is designed to help heal and strengthen your deep core / pelvic floor. When you are ready to ease back into the regular workout subscription again, and you've received approval from your health care provider, navigate to the menu dropdown in the upper left corner of the app, and click on “Manage My Account,” then “Change/Cancel Plan.” You will have options to change or cancel your current plan.
Be sure to check with your health care provider prior to beginning the WILMA app workouts.

Every personal trainer has different ways of programming. For the Wilma App, when you’re presented with a “Circuit,” the description will tell you how many times to perform the entire circuit. For example, “Perform this circuit 2-3x through.” This means you’ll start with the first exercise listed in the circuit, complete one set of the reps outlined for that specific exercise, and then move on to the next exercise within the circuit. Once you get to the last exercise in the circuit, you’ll go back through all exercises again, starting at the top for round two. Something that might help you as you’re learning is when you see the word “circuit” - think “circle...” You’ll be rotating through the exercises in a circular rotation.
With a “Set,” you’ll see just one exercise listed below and you’ll be doing the outlined sets and reps for that specific move. For example, “2 sets of 8-12 reps.”
With a “Superset,” you’ll see two or more exercises listed below (usually two). It's similar to a "circuit" but instead of resting in between exercises, the goal is to complete the prescribed reps of the exercises back-to-back before a period of rest or with minimal rest. It's an effective way to work opposing muscle groups as well and to work through a series of movements more quickly. If you ever have questions with programming, don’t hesitate to reach out!

These workouts were designed to be modifiable to any fitness level. If you find them too challenging, here are some ideas: start by cutting them in half; do them without weight or using lighter weight; pause the videos when you need additional time to finish out your reps; increase the rest periods; follow the lower rep range recommended; and ease into them as you follow your own progression. Remember to not compare your fitness journey to anyone else! Your journey to greater health is about you and that progression will look different on everyone. Remember team WILMA is always cheering you on!
