Reddit reviews Limm Resistance Bands Exercise Loops - 12-inch Workout Flexbands for Physical Therapy, Rehab, Stretching, Home Fitness and More - Includes Bonus EBooks, Instruction Manual, Online Videos & Carry Bag

I use this and love it https://www.amazon.com/Limm-Exercise-Resistance-Loop-Bands/dp/B0136PR5TO

I love youtube workouts (although, I've been a total lump for the last 3 weeks). For when you're feeling low energy, I recommend:

​

1. Fitness Blender. They have a huge range of workouts at different levels of intensity. I did their barre workout the other day--I found this workout really easy pre-pregnancy, but it was actually pretty challenging for me at 9 weeks pregnant...
   
2. Yoga with Adriene. Good range of easy-to-moderate yoga routines. I always feel relaxed when I do these.
   
3. Pilates. I haven't fully explored youtube's pilates offerings, but I've found a few videos I like. I linked to one of them here.
   
4. Resistance Band workouts. I lifted heavy prior to getting pregnant, but I don't plan to continue with that during the pregnancy (although, from what I understand, if you're used to it, it's perfectly safe--I just feel better not doing it because I'm anxious). So, instead of heavy lifting, I plan to get in my resistance training with resistance band exercises. Nicole Perry on youtube has some good workouts using resistance bands.

   For those who want more of a challenge, I highly recommend Melissa Bender. I *love* her workouts, but they've been too high intensity for me during my first trimester. I hope to get back on the wagon if I'm feeling better in a couple months. She was pregnant a couple years ago and has a bunch of her pregnancy workouts compiled in a playlist, so I plan to start with those: Melissa Bender Pregnancy Workouts Playlist

   *Obviously, some of the above workouts will have to be modified if you're too far along to be lying on your back, belly, etc.

   Edited to add: Melissa Bender also has a couple standing core workouts (i.e., creative core exercises that don't involve lying on your back!).

the resistance band sets usually have little diagrams and instructions. you may also want to look into a variety that provides like a door hook which opens up the potential exercises even more.

you can just google resistance band exercises and you'll get a bunch of useful results.

i have these. my situation is a little different as i have a home gym set up to do barbell movements and dumbbells. i use the bands and a handle i made from the rope i had in a noose from back when i was planning to kill myself (sadly, its no longer long enough but oh well) to do face pulls by attaching the bands to the barbell when its on the squat rack. i use a similar set up for tricep push downs and a sort-of cable curl. they're amazing for band flys to hit rear delts as well.

Are you a male? Men's most underdeveloped muscles tend to be their lateral hips/core. But either way...

I would suggest getting a rubber band like this. ... I do these and my old pain from tearing ligaments, collegiate track & field overuse, pain, etc is gone.. wish I would of done these a long long time ago.
