10 Tips for Mom's to Make Time for Fitness!!

Boy oh Boy! I know how tough it can be to try and squeeze in a workout each day while raising a little one & keeping up with life. But there is a way!!! I can pretty much guarantee you will feel happier, more energized and healthier by doing so!! So you can spend even more time with the ones you love :) . 

Here are my TOP 10 Tips for Mom's to Make Time for Fitness!! 

Share to a Mommy Friend that would find this useful! 



1. First Things First- Work out before the day gets away from you.

2. Block It Out- If you have an appointment on your calendar, chances are you show up. That same tactic helps with your fitness schedule! If I set aside specific times in my planner, they feel more like an appointment I have to keep!

3. Have a Plan for How You’ll Sweat- Once you’ve penciled in your workout, don’t forget to think about what you’ll actually do once you get the time!!

4. Don’t Worry About Your Outfit - If your in your PJ's and you get an extra 20 minutes, don't waste time trying to figure out what to wear :p

5. Include Your Kids- It’s hard to find dedicated “alone time” as a parent — but do you really need it? Plop your baby in a baby backpack or have fun doing squats while holding your toddler ! Just don't forget proper form !



6. Make the Jungle Gym/Park Your Bootcamp - Test out the monkey bars, chase your kids around the park, try tricep dips or step ups off the bench !

7. Be a Workout Ninja- If it so happens that each day your workouts don't fall at the same time, take it upon yourself to sneak in mini workouts when you can! 5 minutes is better then none!

8. Don’t Beat Yourself Up- Let’s face it, life happens in the form of sick days, tantrums and gigantic messes that won’t clean themselves. Being a parent is tough work! Life will happen, but as long as you give your "A" game when you can that's all that matters!

9. Get a Mommy Workout Buddy!! Go for a stroll around the block with a neighbour or your partner! Make this a daily routine.

10. Get some Accountability!! If you are looking for some extra motivation or support message me!! I would love to help you!!
