AIS High Performance Pregnancy Guidelines
Many sporting activities are safe for pregnant individuals to participate in, and there are various health benefits arising from continued exercise during pregnancy. The AIS has developed these guidelines to assist pregnant athletes, athletes planning to become pregnant, and their sports to make safe and informed decisions in relation to HP programs. These guidelines are also designed to inform athletes and their sport of their obligations around matters such as discrimination and inclusion.
