10 Easy & Effective Fertility Exercises From An Expert Holistic Fertility Coach

If you’ve struggled with infertility, you may have found the research showing that moderate physical activity can significantly benefit those trying to conceive. Not only does exercise help you manage stress, it can enhance the quality of eggs and improve the environment in which they grow. This may sound like science fiction but here’s how. Improved blood flow, as a result of physical activity, provides increased oxygen and nutrients to the reproductive organs and uterus. This extra blood flow results in better egg quality and improved outcomes for embryo implantation. Fitness also plays an essential role in regulating hormonal imbalances, which is a common cause of infertility. All that being said, it's equally important to understand that excessive or very high-intensity exercises can, in some cases, do more harm than good, potentially leading to decreased fertility. This is why working with a preconception coach and expert in this field like me, Coach Joanie, can be a game changer. Together, we’ll look at your current lifestyle and fitness routine and as a specialized holistic, fertility and pregnancy safe coach, I can guide you through the right amount and intensity of exercises that benefit your overall health and increase your fertility levels.

How fitness levels and fertility are linked


Fertility isn't just about the biological aspects; it's closely tied to your overall health and well-being. A fit and healthy body and mind not only operates more efficiently but also creates an optimal environment for conception. As you rebalance your body through fitness, your body's internal and reproductive systems, start to align better, increasing the odds of conception.


The benefits of exercise for people trying to conceive


A fertility workout plan is not about rigorous gym routines but rather exercises that enhance reproductive health. These fertility exercises and fertility stretches are easy and convenient to fit into your busy day. My free guide below highlights some you can do at home, without the need for any special gym equipment. Here’s some benefits exercise can offer:


  • Improved Egg Quality: Enhanced circulation means more nutrients and oxygen reach the ovaries.

  • Optimal Hormonal Balance: Regular physical activity helps balance hormones, addressing common infertility causes.

  • Stress Reduction: Endorphin release during exercise can combat the negative effects of stress on fertility.


Things to avoid to maximize your chances of conceiving


While the benefits of exercise are undeniable, there's a fine line between beneficial and excessive exercise. Excessively intense routines or very high-frequency workouts might disrupt hormonal balance, leading to decreased fertility. It's not just about exercise. Throwing off your body's natural balance in any way, like the overconsumption of caffeine and alcohol an improper diet or constant stress all affect the body's chances of conceiving. The fertility workouts within Transformation Nation also take your menstrual cycle and cycle syncing into account to make sure your workouts compliment your body's natural hormonal changes during your cycle.


The importance of taking down time


It's often overlooked but your mental well-being plays a pivotal role in your fertility. Chronic stress can alter the neural pathways, causing hormonal imbalances. Incorporating relaxation techniques or engaging in hobbies can be therapeutic. Remember, your mental state deeply influences your physiological state too. The Transformation Nation community shares lots of recommendations, meditations and podcasts to help you develop a healthy state of mind.


The importance of safety when exercising


Exercise safety during preconception, fertility treatments, pregnancy and postpartum gets talked about a lot. The most important guideline to follow is that exercise should be tailored to your individual fitness level by a qualified infertility coach. Proper posture, controlled movements, addressing your muscular imbalances and listening to one's body are essential.


As an expert fertility fitness coach, I want to advise how important it is to make sure your fertility workouts are safe and expertly guided, and programmed for your body’s needs. I’m happy to help get you started. You are welcome to book a quick consultation with me before doing any kind of strenuous exercises. Because guidance is critical to ensure safety and effectiveness, plus everyone should have access to a tailored preconception workout that is exactly what their body needs. Our bodies are all different and your workout should reflect this. Having an expert infertility coach to guide you will ensure you are gaining strength, training the correct muscles, and move you toward being the strongest, most empowered version of yourself possible.
