Arcadium HQ calls for greater awareness within the industry around training pregnant women

Arcadium HQ calls for greater awareness within the industry around training pregnant women

A recent article in the Sunday Mail (9 Dec, 2018) has helped to shine the light on the need for greater awareness for personal trainers when it comes to keeping their knowledge and skill-set up to date when training pregnant women.

Arcadium HQ founder and pre and post-natal coach, Marley McDonogh, has raised concerns around the amount of accountability  for trainers in the industry to ensure they have enough education or experience in training pregnant women to keep both mum and bub healthy.

As a leading expert, Marley spoke to the Sunday Mail journalist about how the mother should always ask questions of her trainer to find out what courses they have done and whether they have experience training pregnant women. Of course, pregnant women should also consult a doctor before commencing an exercise program.
