Thanks for reminding me about the deck o’ cards workout, Lydia! I think she and I might do that Monday . . . day off from school (of course, she is playing 3 soccer games that day, but she is usually up for more!). Thanks for reading!

I love doing exercises/routines that change things up. This reminds me a bit of the deck of cards workout!

What fun! I love working out as a family, as well as sneaking in cardio with xbox games and dance contests lol

Did you try it with your daughter, Joelyn? How’d it go?

Well, the music thing is, admittedly, because my iTunes looks like it was hijacked by a teenager! The music of my youth is now played on the “oldies” stations – still enjoy, but not for workouts. Current fav is “White Walls” by Macklemore!

I love that your 10 year old enjoys working out with you AND the same music. That’s great!

I bet he will, Monica! Kids tend to model what their parents do (although this has NOT worked, so far, with food in our house – despite what all the “experts” say!). Thanks for reading!

She is a very athletic kid all on her own, so she usually works out with me when she’s not practicing for one of her 3 winter sports! She has said, “Mom, if I don’t MOVE during the day, I feel awful.” You can imagine how tough sitting thru a long middle school day can be . . . .

I do exercise with my son when we can. I try to motivate him about 5k and crunches. I think he needs to get more active as I get more active
