Abstract: Not long ago in Obstetrics it was concerning to providers for women to participate in even light exercise. Research has come a long way to prove that exercise is not only not harmful, but actually beneficial for women at every stage of their pregnancy. In even more recent years and continued research the effects of exercise on neonates has proven yet again that exercise is a powerful tool for health and longevity. This article addresses the adaptions and outcomes of infants in relation to their body composition\; and the direct effect maternal pre-pregnancy BMI and exercise during pregnancy play.
