Juggling Fitness And A 3 Month Old

We have a new baby, 3 months old.

This is our fourth.

From experience, I know that ones schedule can get turned upside down for the first year or 2.

But I'm determined to find ways to stay active during my one on one time with him.

So yesterday, I took advantage of the nearly 70 degree weather here in Lago Vista, Texas and went for a stroller walk for 35 minutes.

He fell asleep.

Then I got on my new concept rower and rowed for 10 minutes.

He woke up.

But that was OK, I found a way to get in 40 minutes of exercise.

Some key points here are to:

• Get creative with your workout schedule.  You may have to fit in 5 minutes here and 10 minutes there.
• Have a variety of activities to do.  Rower, walking, lunges, pushups, situps, bike,etc.
• Prepare your food ahead of time.  
• Enjoy your time with your newborn.  They grow up FAST...

Later, I went to the gym and knocked out a more traditional strength workout.

The baby stayed at home with Mom.

Mom gets her time as well.

It's important for each of us to have our "me" time and to do something healthy.
