Share your tips/suggestions for exercising when you have small children!
I have such a hard time fitting in workouts now that I have two kids. One is a 3-yr-old who doesn't name anymore (ugh!). The other is a 7 month old. Here are a few things that have worked for me:
*Walk/run on treadmill while the baby naps and the older one is busy with a project. (Downside: my 3-yr-old still has a pretty short attention span!)
* Take the kids to the mall for a walk and push older one in stroller while I wear the baby on my back.
*Squeeze in a workout after the kids are in bed. (Downside: I'm usually exhausted by that time.)
*Set an alarm on my phone that rings every hour. When it rings, do a series of pushups, crunches, squats, etc.
Anyone else have suggestions?
