I don’t have kids yet, but I like to pick up my goddaughter on Saturdays and go in the woods to discover treasures or go to the aquarium. We also love the park because there is a big blue slide that makes her go ?faster than a plane? she likes to say.
I’ve got 3 athletic kids and it’s so importand to our family to live a healthy lifestyle with the whole Smith team. We’ve been traveling this month so our favorite workout this time has to be using the Tabata app and doing a variety of exercises with it. Depending on what we’ve got for equipment we would alternate treadmill sprints on an incline, stair jump ups, push ups(this is the funniest one with my 5yr old), burpees, lunges w/ whatever weight I could find for me, and triceps presses on the coffee table. It’s always fun to expose them to the exercises- even if the form isn’t quite there yet.
It’s a way of life for us and we love it. Txs Heidi for all your great ideas and encouragement.

I don’t have kids but I have plenty of nieces and nephews with a TON of energy! With mountains all around, little hikes are definitely my favorite. It gets us in nature, they get to pick up flowers and rocks along the way, we race up hills, run down others, scream and shout like children (myself included) when we see an animal scamper across the road (who knew a chipmunk could bring so much joy?!), and it’s all just a grand adventure. They’ve turned into quite the little monkeys loving to climb over/under/around/on top of everything and these little hikes get us all outdoors and pretty much just loving life! And as the adult, you get plenty of exercise yourself as many times you end up with one of the kiddos on your back/shoulders. That or they all cling on to you trying to slow you down as you race up the mountain. MAN! The mountains are calling my name!
We like to jump rope. We each have our own, but we also like to do the old school playground stuff where 2 of us swing the rope and the other one jumps. It’s fun to bring out those old jump rope songs. LOL I’m hoping I can teach them double dutch. 😉 xoxo
I used to Enjoy Dancing with my Nieces when they were Little.
I also added Jump Ropes & hula hoops in the the Dance.
I love to hold my 6 month old while I’m running up the stairs. I also do squats and lunges while holding her. She is a great sport she encourages me to want to work out with her I also sit her on my legs while I do sit ups
My daughters and I have been jogging….and I love shooting hoops with my son. We also love bike riding as a family….I love being active with them!
Awesome love the shoes. My little diva daughter and I do suicide races. Builds a little healthy competition and sure to get the blood flowing.
I have always said singing a song and cross cross jumping rope is the best exercise for everyone and fun… Group effort
Our favorite exercise done together is a game of horse or pig (…or some really loooonnng word,d depending on how long he wants to stay out!–it’s a great spelling exercise too-two for one!) What makes our game unique is we find the craziest and hardest spots and most athletically challenging ways shoot to try to trip the other from making a basket! FUN TIMES!!
