Big Bang Theory's Kaley Cuoco filmed her first pregnancy workout, and WOAH
Actress Kaley Cuoco is on the road to being one very strong mum. The actress, 36, announced in October 2022 that she was pregnant with her first baby, a girl, with her partner Tom Pelphrey, 40. And now, she's sharing her pregnancy fitness journey (and getting back into her regular routines) with her trainer.
While Kaley has previously posted about her sweat seshes on the 'gram, this time, she took to Instagram to post a quick IG Story about her foray back to the gym after four months away. Specifically, she blessed her followers with a peek into her pregnancy workout with her trainer, Ryan Sorensen.
'Haven't done a squat in 5 months LOL,' she captioned the first clip in her story. In the pic and videos, Kaley (and baby bump) is rocking a lavender crop top and black Nike shorts while holding a heavy kettlebell and doing some weighted squats. She does several reps in the clip. Here's the evidence:
In the second video, Kaley threw on a hoodie and starts hitting the SkiErg machine, pumping her arms up and getting some hard cardio with every arm stroke. 'New gym, new body LOL,' she captioned another video.
Kaley has shared in previous Instagram Stories that she was 'horribly sick' throughout her first trimester of pregnancy, sharing throwback photos of herself sleeping 'every day between setups' while working on her new movie Role Play.
But working out during pregnancy is totally safe if you are healthy and your pregnancy is 'normal,' according to the NHS. It does not increase your risk of miscarriage, low birth weight, or early delivery, and 'The more active and fit you are during pregnancy, the easier it will be for you to adapt to your changing shape and weight gain. It will also help you to cope with labour and get back into shape after the birth,' says the NHS.
Kaley's workouts pre-pregnancy were always super hardcore, so it makes sense she was excited to get back on her grind. Earlier this year, she got in a workout with actress Monette Moio from Sorensen that included banded squat hops, single-leg Bulgarian split squats, travelling skipping rope, single-leg medicine ball slams, planks with rotating presses, walking elevated planks, medicine ball speed skaters and more core work.
Another workout in 2021 included running on the treadmill, medicine ball speed work, jump rope, medicine ball slams, weighted abs with overhead presses, planks, kettlebell swings and time on the Versa Climber. (PHEW!)
Kaley recently told Women's Health US all about her daily diet, which includes a lot of healthy options. Breakfast is usually an oat milk latte with toast and peanut butter, followed by a tuna salad or wrap for lunch. Dinner is often grilled salmon with baked potatoes and veggies. Yum!
I have a feeling everyone will be seeing lots more pregnancy workouts in the near future. Congrats, Kaley!
