Day 1: Start small.

As a parent I know that life with kids can be hectic, but your fitness doesn’t have to take a backseat. 

Try these 6 quick tips to stay strong (without sacrificing your sanity):

1️⃣ Schedule your workout like a meeting:

 20 mins a few times a week adds up, focus on quality not quantity.

2️⃣ Train at home:

Nap time/nursery time = you time. You don’t need anything to fancy to begin with, you can do a LOT with your bodyweight & dumbbells.

3️⃣ Involve your kids: 

Rather than potentially resenting your kids as time thieves, get creative and try to involve them. 

4️⃣ Keep it short:

15–45 min sessions can be very effective. You can even  break it up into 3 x 15 mins home based sessions through the day. Focused intensity > duration. 

5️⃣Aim for progress, not perfection:

Missed a session? Don’t quit, adapt. Something > nothing.

6️⃣Move as a family:

Walks, bike rides, hikes—fitness can also serve as a bonding experience 

Taking care of YOU helps you show up better for THEM.

That’s all for today, speak soon.
