Keeping up with the kids

Don’t be left in your kids shadow when it comes to playtime. Ensuring you eat the right foods and enjoy gentle exercise is not just important during your pregnancy, but is also advisable to ensure you keep healthy well after the birthThere are lots of ways to keep fit and healthy but we all know balancing the needs of your children with fitness can be a tough one.   If you struggle to find a spare hour or two in the day, not to mention suitable childcare, in which you can spend at your local gym, a home gym may be your perfect solution.



While subject to space, clearing a spare room or even your garage can provide ample room for a few home machines—just ensure you make the most of your budget and dimensions by investing in quality machines that provide an all-round cardio workout. Gym Company do some great life fitness machines which can be bought on interest free plans, keeping your home training costs equal to that of a monthly gym membership. Accompany your machine with a couple free weights to tone and define those kid carrying muscles and you have the perfect home gym.
If you really are limited in terms of space and budget, an excellent way of burning a few unwanted calories–and tiring the kids out in the process–is brisk walking. Walking is one of the most effective ways to burn post-baby weight. The combination of pushing a baby or toddler in a stroller combined with the natural exercise has great effects on your weight and muscle tone without punishing your body.   Once your kids are out of the stroller, take their hand and walk to the park rather than driving, or find picturesque nature trails suitable for their smaller legs.


Motivating yourself, and your kids, into a weekly routine of exercise is a great way to stay Fit and healthy.
