#FitnessGoals: This 8 Month Pregnant Woman Lifting Weights Will Surely Amaze You! (photos)

This pregnant and soon-to-deliver mummy has been trending on all social media platforms for days as the video clips of her carrying heavy weights go viral. Why? She has just 5 weeks before she's due to give birth, yet she's still lifting weights!

Emily Breeze doing her thing

 

Many pregnant women avoid lifting heavy objects, but this woman won't let a little weight slow her down.

 

Emily Breeze from Charlotte, North Carolina is just shy of 9 months pregnant. With her baby boy due on April 29th, many might advise her to take a break. But the CrossFit-competing, Olympic-lifting 31-year-old said other than modifying her exercises and scaling back on her weights, she has no plans of stopping.

 

 

"I have been training my whole life. I want to truly promote health and fitness to everybody out there," Breeze told InsideEdition.com.

 

The trainer can be seen in various Instagram videos skipping rope and doing push ups. She even does an astonishing 170-pound overhead squat at 27 weeks pregnant.

She continues to lift with the blessing of her doctor, but listens to her body, and adapts her movements accordingly. For example, Breeze told IE.com that her heaviest clean and jerk is 195-200 pounds, but she has scaled that down significantly to accommodate her pregnancy.

 

"A healthy mom and healthy pregnancy will help create that healthy baby. There's no prescription to pregnancy. Everybody might be different," she said.
