Between getting to work around 6:30-7:00 am and coming home to play with Kallie and Josh, my time for working out seems to have been eliminated. Pre-baby, I was one of those annoyingly consistent 6 days a week worker outers (maybe one day I’ll get back there). Now I need to try and fit my workouts in when I can and have to get creative. And I’ve had to learn to be OK if I miss a day too. In no way am I a fitness expert, and I may not have perfect form, but I love to be active. Here is one of my favorite workouts to do with Kallie – my nice 30 lb weight (yes – she is 15 months and weighs 30 lbs)! It allows me to play with her at the same time I’m getting my work out in.
50 jumping jacks (Kallie likes to dance by me)
50 baby-weighted squats
50 baby-weighted lunges (25 each leg)
10 baby lifts/tosses
1 minute plank
Repeat 3 times. Remember to have fun with it!
What are some of your favorite workouts to do with your babies?! I love adding new tricks!
