Story from Jam Press (Pregnancy Workouts) Pictured: Sofia Pires' daughter Evie. Mum shares why she worked out during pregnancy to inspire others to do the same A fitness influencer who continued to work out during pregnancy has revealed that she now does workouts with her baby. Sofia Pires gave birth to her daughter Evie Nasca-Pires, whom she shares with fiancé Alessandro Nasca, just six months ago, and has been enjoying new mum life. Throughout even her later stages of pregnancy, she continued to keep up an intense fitness regime, impressing her 13,000 Instagram followers. Now, the 28-year-old has started incorporating her baby into her workouts. “Before starting a family, I was at my peak fitness level,” Sofia, from Portugal, told What's The Jam. “Which was exactly where I wanted to be just before falling pregnant. “I didn’t know how pregnancy was going to go for me as it is something we can’t plan for but I was determined to do everything to continue an active and healthy lifestyle through out my whole pregnancy. “I was quite sick the first three months so I settled for daily walks and a healthy diet until I felt better. “But once morning sickness had passed I was ready to get back into the gym and I trained five days a week until my due date.” However, this also came with a mix of reactions from both friends and her fans online. Sofia said: “It was either very positive or very negative. “There isn’t a lot of information out there about training during pregnancy but I had great support by my midwife who was also a friend I had known for years and she was very aware of my training and limitations. “In all honesty, the negativity didn’t affect me at all. “I was very confident with my knowledge in training and my body awareness. “On the positive side, I had an amazing support group and friends that enjoyed training with me.” After giving birth, she found a way to tweak her regime to include her baby in the workout
