One of Kendra’s biggest frustrations during both her pregnancies was how EASY her prenatal programs were. She often felt she was being treated like a delicate flower.
This made her angry because pregnant people are strong, and because she was getting ready to give birth - one of the most physically challenging things she would ever do.
Today, we’re talking about exercises you can safely do in your second trimester of pregnancy and pulling back the curtain on our fitness program Baby Bump & Beyond, which features 30 unique workouts.
And it’s available on the Daily Burn, an on-demand fitness platform, and contains a mix of pregnancy-safe strength training, cardio, and yoga workouts, plus some tutorials about common concerns like diastasis recti and pelvic floor issues.
Months went into putting EVERYTHING we know into this program – including our hearts and a lot of sweat – and we hope moms listening can use this episode to evaluate other programs they might be considering during pregnancy training.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
