How to Stay Fit with No Babysitter in Sight!

As your toddler jumps on your bed and your baby’s crying, your dreams of a quiet morning run followed by a hot cup of coffee fade away. Although a quiet, calm morning may be a distant dream, your workout doesn’t need to be. By following these tips, you can get your exercise with your kids in tow.

Chase your Toddler

Toddlers are always moving, so move with them. When you take your toddler to the park, instead of watching from a bench, play too! Pretend you’re the big bad wolf and chase after your little piggy. Your kid will shriek with joy and you’ll find that your heart is pounding in no time. Easy-peasy cardio!

Take a Walk

Nothing soothes a crying baby faster than a walk. While you point out the birds and flowers, decide to take an extra spin around the park. Your baby will be happy and you can get a brisk walk in.

Bring Your Baby Monitor to Your Home Gym

We promise, the kids will eventually fall asleep. It might take 12 readings of that special bed-time story, complete with silly voices and reenactments, but they will fall asleep. Then, you can head down to your home gym, equipped with your selection of award-winning cardio, functional trainers, benches, Jones Machines and more. With your music playing in one ear and the other tuned to the monitor, you can exercise while the kids sleep.

If you follow these tips, you’ll find that you can get the exercise you need and your kids can have more fun than ever. For added bonus points, take a family trip to the local zoo. Hauling kids across the parking lot alone is a commendable workout. Throw in lifting them to see the elephants 100 times and carrying them back to the car when they fall asleep, and you’re approaching Ironman status. Let us help you live active today!
