As I mentioned in my solo parenting post yesterday, babies love to exercise with mommy or daddy. What I failed to include in that post was specific examples of exercises you can do WITH your baby, so I busted out my iphone and recorded a short exercise session that I did with baby Amber:

As you can see, Amber had a great time and I got to workout my legs, arms, and core – essentially my full body!!

Question/Sharing:
Do you workout with your kids? What exercises do you like to do?

Love it — Great way to bond and what a great example to set early! My kids are older now but I remember every time I picked them up I thought who needs weights!

What great suggestions. My kids are teens now and don’t like doing much with their Mama anymore, but I used to do some of those things with them when they were younger.

But of course! Babies = Mega Weight! I’m out of my baby stage, but I do have 2 toddler nephews that are my buddies at the park and kettlebell substitutes 🙂

I love this! Amber is such a cutie. I just tried some of these with my toddler and he thought it was so much fun. Great post!
