• 5 Reasons To Join A Gym With Child Care

    There is no better reason to get yourself and your kids out of the house, than to start getting in shape!

    If you've never thought it was possible with your kids with you, here are 5 reasons why a Gym with Child Care is the perfect solution!

    Not only will it give you a nice change of pace, your kids will love getting out of the house to play in some place new.

    Let’s face it, unless you are a celebrity with a personal trainer, chef and nanny, baby weight doesn't exactly fall right off. So you join a gym with child care. Aside from the obvious health benefits, here are some other reasons it’s some of the best money you’ll ever spend.

    1. Bang For Your Buck. You can’t put a price on your health, but having a gym with childcare is a double whammy. Not only does your health and well-being benefit from getting fit, paying for the membership (and using it) ends up costing less than hiring a sitter or signing your kids up for lots of classes that you also have to attend. And really, I can only take so much of sitting in a circle faking a smile, singing the hello and goodbye song while my toddler makes a scene thrashing wildly around trying to escape.

    2. Lose The “Baby” Weight. All moms want to lose weight and it just isn’t happening while we sit on the floor playing with our kids and consuming an average of 800 calories per day on their cheerios, goldfish, cereal bars and the like. I have even chugged apple juice right out of the sippy cup in desperate moments. Join a gym with childcare and start burning off those last 10 pounds that have been hanging on just a tad too long to still be considered baby weight.

    3. Increase Energy and Reduce Stress. We did not know stress and exhaustion until we had kids. We thought we did, but we didn’t. This is a whole new ball game and we are losing big time. Exercise is proven to be one of the best ways to reduce stress and increase energy, it even releases happy little endorphins into your bod, and I’m pretty sure we could all use a little more pep in our step to get through the day.

    4. Legitimize Your Yoga Pants Wardrobe. You know you wear yoga pants every day. Sometimes you even wear them to bed to save on time and laundry. Why not actually put them to their intended use and get a sweat on at the gym? Plus, you can tell anyone you run into that you are just heading to or coming from the gym and they’ll believe you!

    5. Take A Long Shower In Peace. Get crazy and even dry your hair! It’s amazing how a shower can feel like a spa treatment when you’re a mom. Ahhhhh…..
