Mommy Aerobics

Work out?  Who has the time or energy to work out?  I think I’m doing just fine!

Here is my daily workout routine:

Climbing over the baby gate.

Target areas:  Gluts, hams/quads.  Remember to keep that tummy tucked in.

Caloric equivalent to the mini almond joy I saved from Mickey’s Trick or Treat Party.

Running after my son ALL DAY LONG.

Target: Cardiovascular fitness and endurance.

Caloric equivalent to the pizza I’m craving.

Carrying my son while I do laundry, dishes, and other necessary cinderella-like household chores.

Target areas:  Deltoids, biceps, triceps, shoulders.  Be sure to alternate arms so that you don’t look like a lopsided Popeye.

Caloric equivalent:  Nothing.  You’d have to do way more of these than physically possible to realize any measurable benefit!
